Release Day! New Areas + Events + New Anguish

Today is day one of the new areas "Altar of Flame" and "Castle in the Sky" being live and available in-game. Those of you who are still working on stage 1-84, do not feel left out. The new stages are very difficult so don't feel as if 84 is a major bummer because if you can't conquer Temple of Ice, then Altar of Flame will not be much better! Take your time, train your rangers, grind some levels and gold. It's still Double Gold day!

Along with the newly released areas, Line has given us little under 2 days of another Gacha event and Ruby event. If you've been itching to play the GACHA machine for premium rangers, today's the day to get the most bang for the buck and possibly best chances at 5-star rangers. I tried my hand at it and it was an utter disappointment personally, but some other people got great results from their GACHA. Try your luck!


The user level cap has been increased to 80. I was hoping that the new levels would increase Tower HP but it so far hasn't. I'm still capped at 999999 for my tower. It doesn't seem to make sense or be at all worth anything to put more gold coins into Tower HP upgrades for the time being. Not sure if that is an accident, either.

Interesting thing that isn't working in players' favor is that enemy tower HP has increased tremendously. I didn't check lower stages but every stage from 80 up has had enemy tower increased from ~600k to 999k. 84's tower used to be 680k. It is also now 999k. This will make the splash hax strategy of killing it that much more difficult. I don't know if it was intentional or accidental. It seems quite unfair to go back to old stages and increase the difficulty in such a strange, sweeping manner.
[Edit]: I went back as far as stage 64 spot checking. Looks like the 999999 enemy tower goes back pretty far. Stage 48 is at 440k, which also seems insanely high for it. Maybe it's just broken and they'll fix it?
Stage 84's enemy tower used to have 680000 HP. Now it has 999999 HP. What's up with that...
Anyway, I'm being pwned by 86 at the moment. I'm still trying to approach it with different methods and rangers to see what works better. Frankly, I'm getting the feeling this is going to be a grinding uphill battle. Prepare thyself...
