Adjustments and Changes

  • No Confederacies: Only alliances are available.

  • 25% Faster Construction: Applies to Main Building, Granary, Warehouse (and Great variants), and all resource fields.

  • Improved Alliance Bonuses:

    • Commerce bonus now improves merchant speed and capacity.

    • Philosophy bonus boosts Town Hall celebrations and artworks, increasing their limits.

  • Choose the Tribe of Your First 3 Settled Villages:

    • When founding new villages, you can select their tribe.

    • Works only for the first three settled villages (not for conquered ones).

    • Once used, this option cannot be used again, even if the villages are lost.

Removed or Modified Features

  • The map edges can now be crossed (similar to regular gameworlds).

  • No harbors or ships.

  • Teutons return; Vikings are not included this year.

  • Romans return to their standard troop setup (no boosted legionnaires).


New Features in Reign of Fire

Item Rarity

All equipment now has four rarity levels:
Common, Uncommon, Rare, and Epic.
Each item has both a quality tier (as before) and a rarity level, meaning item bonuses can now reach much higher values.

More Adventures

  • The number of hero adventures has doubled — e.g., about six per day on x1 servers during the early days.

  • You now need to complete 20 adventures (instead of 10) to unlock the Auction House.

  • Because there are more adventures, their difficulty and hero experience are roughly halved, and loot frequency has been increased.

You’ll find better and more frequent rewards, with item quality improving gradually as the server progresses.


Item Crafting

You can now craft your own equipment instead of relying solely on loot or auctions:

  • Smelt items to obtain materials.

  • Forge new items using those materials.

  • Refine items to increase their rarity and improve their bonuses: Item Crafting


Adjusted Hero Damage Model

The hero damage system was updated to prevent heroes with powerful rare items from becoming nearly invincible.

In regular worlds:

  • Item bonuses are applied before damage.

  • If final damage ≥ 90 HP, the hero dies.

In Reign of Fire:

  • If initial calculated damage ≥ 95 HP, the hero dies instantly — bonuses don’t apply.

  • If damage < 95 HP, bonuses are applied normally.

Example:
A hero with an item reducing damage by 8 HP gets hit for 96 damage.

  • On regular worlds → survives with 12 HP.

  • In Reign of Fire → dies, since initial damage was 95+.

This ensures item bonuses are powerful but not game-breaking.


Tip: Reign of Fire is fast, feature-rich, and rewards proactive strategy. Make full use of troop merging, faster construction, and hero crafting to stay ahead of your competition.
