Blueprints, New Functionality
Blueprints are special items used to get discounts on researching new vehicles. Every researchable vehicle (starting from Tier II) has blueprints.
- Each blueprint consists of fragments; their number depends on vehicle tier. Each fragment increases the EXP discount - thus reducing EXP required for vehicle research.
- Once a blueprint is completely assembled, there is no need for EXP to research a corresponding vehicle.
- If a player receives a blueprint fragment for a vehicle that has already been researched or has all blueprint fragments collected, such blueprint fragments will be automatically converted to one of the following blueprint types: universal or national.
- A blueprint can be completed by converting a certain number of universal and national fragments. The quantity needed depends on the tier of the desired vehicle.
Rewards for Merit
Added a new type of battle reward: Rewards for Merit (previously known as Random Reward). They contain various game items as well as blueprint fragments. They can be earned in the following way:
- With a certain probability after each battle.
- The probability increases for the next battle when the Rewards for Merit is not earned. It resets after it is earned and the process of repeats.
- These rewards can be earned only in random battles.
- The first four rewards you earn will be small and the fifth one will be large.
Crew Skins
A crew skin includes the following set of personal data:
- Unique avatar
- Unique first and last name
- Brief information about the character
Crew Skin can be applied for free to a standard crew member to change his or her appearance. At the same time, all attributes, experience, skills and abilities of the selected crew member remain unchanged.
In addition, Crew Personal Data Change is now free.
