June Work in Progress
June Work in Progress
Certain Forsaken Captains are gaining Reputation for being fearsome combatants in the war against the Draconians. Groups of Forsaken fighters known as Rogue Crews have begun to lend their skills to Captains with enough of this Reputation. Their unique abilities will be an asset as the Forsaken turn their attention to entrenched Draconian forces.
Primary Features:
Reputation
Reputation will be a new currency that players can earn by attacking Draconian targets. The more Draconian ships and buildings a player destroys, the more Reputation they will earn. Reputation can be spent on Rogue Crews to enhance a player’s fleet.
Rogue Crews
Players will have the ability to earn random Rogue Crews by spending Reputation. Rogue Crews are assigned to a player’s fleet and will enhance all ships for a period of time. There are a variety of crews that enhance stats and add new abilities like Critical Hits and Speed Bursts.
Forsaken Missions
We will be releasing new Blueprint prizes in Forsaken Missions during the month of June. We will also be reverting the start day to Wednesday, after receiving feedback from players.
June Event
Players will face a new enemy in addition to the Draconian Military Fleets. Players will also be able to take their pick of top prizes, then they can redeem prizes at each tier on their second time through.
Gifting Gold via Premium Gifts
Players can now gift Gold to other players. This is a great way for veteran players to help out junior players.
Alliance Revisions
Revisions have been made to terminology regarding Alliance Points and Alliance XP. We have uncapped Alliance Points and players can now compete with their fellow captains to dominate the new leaderboard

Level: 50
In Kixeye language, this means that they will be replacing one or more target fleets with a raid on the Draconian Base that has been in a bubble for a month. It should definitely add to the all-around strategy of the event. It will be something different, yet not having to hit the Drac Base 50 times to get the top tier prize...... They do this in some of the events that they have in War Commander - where you get attacked and then you counter-attack.
Looking forward to it!
