Important Update: New Donation Gold Calculation System

A big announcement for everyone who supports or plans to support the server financially.

Please read this message carefully.

As you know, all of our payment systems send the funds you donate in Russian rubles. Until now, we’ve been calculating gold by simply multiplying the amount in rubles by 5. That’s how much gold you would receive.

We’ve always covered all service fees ourselves. For example, Boosty charges around 15% in commission, while B2P.io charges around 30%.

This system worked perfectly under the assumption that only Russian players would donate using rubles. However, for international players, this model is not transparent, and you’ve had no clear way to determine how much gold you would receive per donation.

Additionally, the exchange rate changes daily. As the ruble has strengthened significantly, this has resulted in you receiving less gold for the same donation amount.

As of today, the gold calculation system has been changed. We now check the USD to RUB exchange rate from the Central Bank of Russia every minute. When a donation is received, the system calculates how many dollars were donated based on the number of rubles received and the current exchange rate.

The new exchange rate is:
1 USD = 500 Gold

This means that if you donated $10 yesterday, you would have received approximately 3,500 gold. Today, you will receive 5,000 gold.

Please note that there may be small differences (plus or minus) due to exchange rate variances between your bank and the Central Bank of Russia. However, we expect this difference to be no more than $0.50 per $100 donated.

This new system is now active across all supported donation platforms:

• Boosty
• Pally Pay
• B2P.io
• FunPay

Thank you for your continued support! ❤️

Hey everyone! Tomorrow (July 1st) at 12:00 PM server time, we’ll be updating the server and transferring guilds for those who submitted applications.

Get ready for an exciting summer—see you on the battlefield!

Time to unveil the details of the summer update and the new season of the Battle Pass - Glory of Olympus.

The main theme of this update is the introduction of a new daily PvP activity - the Olympic Battles system. Olympic Battles are essentially automated tournaments that last for the first two weeks of each month. Teams of 5 players (this is a mandatory condition) can participate in the tournaments. Each victory in an Olympic battle will grant each team member 30 Battle Pass coins, and each defeat - 15 coins. Tournament winners (2 people in each class for each faction) who score the highest number of points will receive a special hero status for the next 2 weeks, granting them +10,000 HP and a special visual aura that distinguishes the characters from others.

Thus, from the 1st to the 15th of each month, players can participate in battles, then from the 16th to the end of the month there are no battles, but the Olympic heroes can use the received enhancements.

Detailed guide on Olympics:

• Russian
• English
• Chinese

This is a completely new feature developed entirely by us and will likely require balancing as it's used. We will collect your feedback and analyze the statistics to make this feature better and more interesting each season.

The next major change: rework of the "Battlefield in the Pind Mountains" event:

• The map has been modified. The upper path has been narrowed and the lower one removed to create more intense battles.
• New rewards: for killing enemies of the opposite faction and delivering water, characters now receive BGold. Both killing and delivering will increase rewards. Whole group receives points from kills, including support roles.
• Up to 4000 BGold can be earned per event by combining enough kills and deliveries.

Thermopylae map reworked:

• Now fully mirrored for faction balance.
• Added ~100 more monsters to the map.
