Ranked Battles Open 24/7
No more waiting—ranked mode is now available all the time. Compete whenever you're ready to test your skills and climb the leaderboards.
- Two Seasons Per Month: Fast-paced seasons with bigger prizes.
- Continuous Matchmaking: Dive into battles at your convenience and push your limits.
Use and Customize Your Own Golems
For the first time, you can bring your own golems into Conquest battles! This feature allows for unparalleled customization, enabling you to adapt and refine your strategy for every encounter.
Skills and Traits on the Fly
- Swap Skills and Traits: Adjust your golems’ abilities at any time, tailoring them to counter your opponents or optimize for specific challenges.
- Create a truly unique lineup by mixing and matching abilities and traits to suit your playstyle.
Level Up Your Golems
- Burn Other Golems: Sacrifice unused golems to gain XP for your team.
- Anima Integration: Use anima alongside burned golems to boost your other golems' XP and level them up.
Leveling up your golems doesn’t just make them stronger; it also unlocks the path to even greater rewards.
Increase Rarity to Unlock Potential
Once your golem reaches its level cap, you can spend resources to increase its rarity, opening up a whole new level of power and flexibility:
- Unlock New Skills and Traits: Rarity upgrades give your golems access to unique abilities, making them even more versatile in battle.
- Raise the Level Cap: Each rarity increase lets your golem level up further, pushing their stats and abilities to greater heights.
This system ensures that every golem in your lineup has room to grow and evolve, becoming an essential part of your Conquest strategy.
Why This Matters
This is more than just a cosmetic improvement—it's a core gameplay mechanic that rewards strategic investment. Whether you focus on building a few elite golems or manage a diverse roster, leveling and rarity upgrades let you fine-tune your approach.
Ghost Battles
If the matchmaking system can’t find a suitable opponent, you’ll face ghost battles—simulations of past players’ battles. These matches keep the action going and give you a chance to learn from former strategies.
Energy Capture Rate (ECR)
To ensure balanced rewards for all players, ECR is now in effect:
- What is ECR?
- Your ECR starts at 100% and regenerates by 1% per hour.
- Each ranked match reduces your current ECR by 1%.
- Why Does It Matter?
- Above 80% ECR: Full rewards.
- 70-80% ECR: 80% rewards.
- 60-70% ECR: 70% rewards.
- 50-60% ECR: 60% rewards.
- Below 50% ECR: ECR% rewards.
Pro Tip: Maximize rewards by using the new Gate Openings—they don’t reduce ECR!
Daily Gate Openings
The Gates of Battle now open every day at six specific times (UTC):
- 00:00-01:00
- 04:00-05:00
- 08:00-09:00
- 12:00-13:00
- 16:00-17:00
- 20:00-21:00
Gate Rewards:
- Extra XP and Anima: Level up your golems faster.
- 50% Bonus Event Drop Chances: Perfect for hunting rare Christmas skins.
- ECR-Friendly: Gate battles don’t consume ECR, so you can play without limits.
⏳ Transfer Cooldowns
To keep gameplay balanced, golems now have a 2-day transfer cooldown after being used in a battle. Plan your lineups strategically to maximize their potential.
Golem Eldritch Vaults: Open Them Now
The Eldritch Golem Vaults are live and ready to open! Each vault contains five powerful Conquest golems, perfect for expanding your roster and experimenting with new strategies.
Why Open a Vault?
- Unlock unique golems to dominate Conquest mode.
- Every vault purchase earns points toward the Eldritch Vault Leaderboard, where the top player will win the exclusive right to design their own golem.
Don’t Forget the Christmas Event
The Christmas Event is live for the next 9 days, bringing exclusive, limited-time advisor skins to your roster.
Event Details:
- Base Drop Chance: 5%.
- Increased Chances: 0.25% per win without a drop, up to a maximum of 15%.
- Gate Bonus: During Gate Openings, drop chances increase by 50%.
This is your chance to grab some of the rarest advisor skins before the event ends!
A Final Reminder
Don’t forget, Eldritch Crates are still on sale! Open them to climb the leaderboard and get closer to the chance of designing your very own golem.
With all these new updates and events, there’s never been a better time to jump into Golem Overlord. Whether you’re climbing the ranks, hunting Christmas skins, or building the ultimate golem team, the battlefield is yours to conquer.
