By Aileen · Official · 04/2024Back to releases
Hello, Stormbounders! A new version of Stormbound is coming in April, bringing balance changes, Easter event, Pet Day event, Economy improvements and the Book Day event!
Balance changes
This release, just like any other, will bring some balance changes.
- Feral Shamans’ movement is now 2 (up from 1). Plus, the ability made to drain 2/3/3/4/5 (instead of 3/4/4/5/6).
- Joust Champions’ movement is now 3 (up from 2).
- Harpies of the Hunt’s strength is now 5/6/7/8/9 (up from 4/5/6/7/8).
- Wisp Cloud‘s strength is now 2/3/4/5/6 (up from 1/2/3/4/5).
- Queen of Herds’ ability made to play [...] 2/3/4/4/5 strength non-Hero Satyrs [..] (changed from Common or Rare Satyr). Additionally, QoH will now be setting Strength of played Satyrs by her ability to 2/3/4/4/5.
- Head Start‘s mana is now 3 (instead of 2), and the ability made to spawn 5/6/7/8/9 strength Satyrs (instead of 3/4/5/6/7)
- Trusty Shepherds‘ ability made to gain 2/2/2/2/2 strength (instead of 2/2/3/3/3), and the strength is now 2/3/4/5/6 (instead of 2/3/3/4/5)
As usual, some compensation in the form of coins and fusion stones will be provided to owners of Queen of Herds, Head Start, and Trusty Shepherds, proportional to the level and rarity of the card. Find below the compensation values for each rarity and level.
Rare card: 
15 coins and 
2 fusion stones at level 2, 30 coins and 3 fusion stones at level 3, 90 coins and 7 fusion stones at level 4, 190 coins and 10 fusion stones at level 5.
Legendary card: 1 fusion stone at level 1, 20 coins and 5 fusion stones at level 2, 50 coins and 10 fusion stones at level 3, 150 coins and 20 fusion stones at level 4, 300 coins and 50 fusion stones at level 5.
Furthermore, regarding the Queen of Herds, we are considering increasing the number of spawned Satyrs to 2 at levels 1, 2, and 3 in future balance changes if this month's change will cause the desired outcome.
