The Age of Affinity (Age 74) - current Age on World of Legends server.

Mechanics Changes

  • New Features
    • Multi-Attack Protection (MAP) - The rate at which this metric increases for abducts has been adjusted to be a more adequate representation of the resources lost. Additionally, this metric has been revised slightly in other areas to be a better representation of damage that occurs in an attack.
    • Meter Throttling - Adjusted to reduce operation damage against Kingdoms that have gains throttled on you. Also there will be a reduction to throttling that occurs within declare range.
    • Ceasefires - There is a new feature with Cease-Fires that allows you to choose a date until which the Cease-Fire cannot be broken. The farthest date in the future that can be chosen is 3 Utopian Years.
    • Stances - Removed
  • Rituals
    • New rituals added and adjustments made to existing rituals to balance the effects
      • Affluent - +20% Income, +25% Draft Speed, +30% BR
      • Barrier - +10% DME & -15% Spell/Thief damage & +10% Defensive TPA & +10% Defensive WPA
      • Havoc - +25% Offensive TPA & +25% Offensive WPA & +10% Spell/Thief damage
      • Onslaught - +10% OME, +15% enemy casualties on attacks & +20% honor gains
      • Resilient - -25% Gains in and out & -20% Military Casualties on defense
      • Godspeed - -10% attack speed & +10% Battle Gains & 10% Less Military Casualties on Offense
      • Expedient - -25% Military Train time & -20% Training Costs (including Thieves) & -20% Construction Time & -25% Construction Costs
    • Reduced to 80 casts
    • Mana cost will actually be 2% instead of 3% (this was left out of Age 73 code but is now in place for Age 74)
  • Other bits and pieces
    • Spells and Thief Operational changes
      • Night Strike - Damage dealt by night strike will be reduced by approximately 20%.
      • Inspire Army/Paladin's Inspiration - Both of these spells are capable of being cast on a Province, however, while PI is cast it's effects will prevail until it wears off. Therefore, the bonuses from each of these spells will not stack, only 1 will be applied if both are present.
      • Some Paladin Only spell durations tweaked slightly higher
      • Nature's Blessing - The chance to cure plague will be increased to 1/3 up from 1/5
    • Train/Build Credits
      • Can use building credits to raze acres will be a standard ability
      • There will be an option on all pages to provide use of building credits that will allow the option to NOT use your credits for your current purchase. For example: You would like to train 1000 specialists and have 500 specialist credits but you would prefer not to use your credits, there will be a checkbox that will designate the option to NOT use the credits.
      • Immediately upon exit of End of War Cease-Fire all Credits will decay by 1/3 instantly
      • Building Credits will decay at a rate of 20% per Month if Credits > Land * 15%
      • Training Credits will now decay at a rate of 20% per Month
    • Buildings
      • Watchtower rate at which protection is granted has been reduced. Maximum effect will remain the same.
      • Allow Cancel of buildings under construction (no gc refunded)
    • Scientists
      • You can now choose which category your next scientist will spawn into (random is also an option)
      • Scientist Experience will now show on your Science page and in the Spy on Sciences. This will allow for calculation of scientist networth to ultimately provide a method for determining wizard population. We feel that Wizards should have some mystery and require a bit of knowledge and pursuit to discover rather than have accurate information handed out in a single successful operation.
    • War Proposals - Limit of 3 proposals that can be outstanding at any given time
    • Dragons
      • All Dragon costs reduced by 25%. Additionally, you will now have the ability to name your dragon! Is yours Sophia? That's Dave's!
    • EoWCF Duration - Increased to 96 hours from 72 hours.
    • War Win Points - Point calculations will no longer be boosted based on rankings during YR 0.
    • IP Restrictions - We have overhauled the anti-cheat system. IP restrictions have been modified to rely more on heuristic methods than automated prevention. The effectiveness of these efforts will be carefully and extensively monitored and adjusted accordingly.
    • Abduct Military Casualties - Defensive military casualties on abducts has been reduced by 50%
    • Support Spell History - There will be a new area in the History section of your province that records your casts and successful casts of spells on Kingdom mates
    • Self Kingdom Espionage - There will be an Espionage Page added that will show your own Kingdom's Support Spells. This page will only show Support spells that have been cast by others, it will not show spells you've cast on yourself.
    • Merging of Kingdoms - Kingdoms will merge weekly starting after Yr 1. Eligible Kingdoms to merge will be in the lowest 1/3 of the server and will merge similarly as is performed during the end of age reset such that Kingdoms with very few provinces will have a chance to play with other active players in a normal size Kingdom. Kingdoms that will be merged will be handled on a case by case basis and contacted directly via Game Administration. Kingdoms will have the option not to merge if they so choose as we test the effectiveness of this feature.
    • Game Administration Kingdom - Kingdom 1:1 will be dedicated to Game Administration and Utopia News Reporters. The provinces in this Kingdom will remain in protection for the duration of the age. These provinces should not be messaged to replace the use of Utopia Support e-mail or for reporting violations of the Game Rules. Utopia News Reporters will have a dedicated province in this Kingdom to enable them a safe and secure place to message Kingdoms with privacy for their in-game accounts and Forum accounts. Kingdoms or players that receive messages from these Reporter accounts can be assured the person they are speaking with is who they say they are and not some random person scamming for information.
