From the LOTB FB page:

"Today at 10 am PST Legacy of the Beast will be down for approximately 2 hours while we push some exciting new content.
Brace yourself for new Eddies, and even more rewards!"

Thank you muchly.

Sounds like some good times ahead! Nice to see a holiday theme for Halloween. I like when games implement those. Also, clever way to get soul hoarders to spend them before the Sacrifice update comes along. I know I'll be expanding my character inventory to 100 in order to accommodate this opportunity.

it' tonight 10 o clock?
I'm totally bored by the game now: no colored evo shard 3* loot for me in all madness world, impossible to update one character to 5* since 3 month of game!
soul 2* = only same crap souls
soul 3* = 0 loot since last update....i buy 3 pack and only crap souls again !!!

i'm waiting that update and decide if i totally stop the game or not

Well I hate to nag too, thanks Sparton for all the updates.

No offence taken; I don't blame you and others in the slightest.

I'm wondering how will the difficulty nerf work.

The Number of the Beast is difficult for his last form that steal beneficial effects and extreme damage plus harmful effects.

Light Bringer is difficult due to the first line up of Angels and 3rd lineup of Trolls.

Dungeons are difficult for awesome bosses ability with 4 minions.

Note:
For my honest opinion, please replace the word "difficult" with "fun" in this post.

I don't think Kaz did too much, but we felt it was the best choice to do for now due to the impact of fixing the odd stats of some talismans were having with some people. Basically, we reduced the stat bonuses those enemies had to compensate, but they're still doing the same kinds of skills and strategies they were before, so it shouldn't be too easy.

It's funny, I've never had a problem with Lightbringer, but I think my usual strongarm team just hard counters the two trouble waves you noted...

In the characters tuning, will you make something about the very nerfed Soldier Eddie's Fury?

Looking at his data, it looks like he should be doing substantially more damage than his Barrage skill at least, and then he has further special stat scaling beyond that. I understand that people were seeing lower damages compared to when the Fierce talismans were giving way more stats than they should have, so perhaps that's what you're comparing his performance with?

The event looks great but... I don't know about selling 4*s for a chance to enjoy it

Again no more slots, so no new chars. Sad how you add new chars but no more slots.

I'm doing my damndest to get a solution live ASAP, and am truly sorry I couldn't get it out in time for the event.

sparton - i see that CR eddie s fury is doing some funky stuff .. it not healing the enemy s completely but definitly does not do proper / complete damage. any fix for this ?

I believe what's happening here is a bug with how the hit point bar is displaying mid-fury. That said, I also thought that was the case when marks were being reported, so I'll be looking closer at this to see if it's just that or something more.

10 AM PDT is like right now, or at least in a few minutes.

This looks awesome! Thank you so much Sparton!

Couple of questions thou:

are we going to have a list of the new characters available during this event? ex. number of stars and class so we can see what we want to get and how to get it.
is Fear of the Dark Eddie only available until the end of the event?

(I hope your power ability got a buff with this update and your chance of responding to questions increased significantly )
