Updates from the News Frontier - May 7th 2020

[Ceeg_LOTB]

Welcome to this week’s News Frontier

Not too much to talk about today! The coming week, things will be ramping up again with events, including Season 7 of the Gauntlet!

Gift pack Confusion

There seems to have been some confusion around the Gift Pack that has been available in the store since April 17th and it seeming like a second care pack was added that was identical to the first. This was not the case. With the Store refresh, unfortunately the original pack got refreshed too and some players were able to collect it a second time. However this was unintentional so it was fixed.

If you have previously collected the pack, it will not show up in the store for you to collect.

Good news is, that isn’t the last Gift pack that you are going to be seeing from Iron Maiden and the LoTB team. Keep a close eye on that!

Bug Reporting

Magus Skogkatt was reported to have a conflict with Lightning Talismans today, that has been logged, investigated and the issue has been reproduced by the team. Thanks to anyone who reported this as a fix has already been submitted for testing!

The new Talisman sorting system is being reviewed from your feedback as some conflicts are happening in specific cases. The team are watching closely to the feedback and will be making the necessary changes as they can.

Concept Art

Last week I asked about any fan art or memes of the most dashing smile in the Cosmos, Ragnar, but forgot to share with you some of the Art teams early concept art of him so here it is!



That’s it from me this week!

Wait I almost forgot. This file was on my desktop when I turned on the computer this morning. Was just titled “Unknown Scroll”. Any of you got any thoughts on what it might be?

[Beddie]

It’s definitely the next gauntlet character

[BeachPlease]

The Pilgrim? The Man of Sorrows?

[druid138]

It sounds like The Christ.

But, I bet you're right about The Pilgrim.

[MuzakMaker]

Why didn't we get that concept art. Looks waaaay better than the final result.

And by the way you could pick up that pack twice. Once when it was initially released and once more when it popped up with the refresh.

[Maiden]

Oh Ragnar <3

Don´t ever leave us! haha Thks for the Concept Art, nice to see the origins of a legend

BTW

Does it mean something? I can read a "Don´t ..." but no more...

[MetalKing]

Some of the letters in blue above look like scribbling, but a couple of those look like runes, which the vikings were known to use. You can look up on the internet Elder Futhark for an example.

[Azagthor]

It's possible it's completely made up, which would explain why it looks like a combination of a couple of different runic language systems.

[Brickster]

Here's a request for Ceeg and the other guys that make these teasers:

Make it a cryptic puzzle that the community can solve. I think everyone would love that, and indirectly spoiling the character 4 days in advance doesn't hurt anyone right?

Yeah, that thing with the Mercenary was cool as hell
