Daily Quests and UI

 * Daily Quests
 * “Daily quests is a new system that replaces the Daily Login bonus. Quests may be completed at any time, and no longer require consecutive days of logging in to reach the maximum bonus possible.”
 * New Daily Quest System
 * Each day you will gain two Quests (up to a maximum of two).
 * Completing a Quest will reward Favor and increment your Quest Tracker.
 * Upon completing enough Quests, players will receive a Gem bonus.


 * New Landing Page
 * The 3D Landing Pages are being removed and being replaced by a 2D Page.
 * “While we adored our 3D promotional landing pages, and know a lot of fans liked them, there are a number of advantages to this new system. First and foremost, it allows us to be more responsive to our community; the 3D promotional pages could only be updated each patch, where our new system can be updated to all of our users within minutes. This means we can better keep you all informed of events, game news, and potential issues.”
 * “Second, it actually took a lot of development effort to generate the 3D scenes, and it was “throw away” work – once an item was no longer new, the animations were not available to see. By recovering that development time we can put more effort into exciting lobby idles and scenes that will exist for the lifetime of the character or skin.”

General Gameplay

 * Conquest Map Change

Active Items → Relics

 * Players unlock their first Relic at level 1, and their second Relic at level 12.
 * Relics can no longer be ranked up to higher tiers.

“''Relics have the power of Tier 3 Actives, with an extended cooldown to compensate the fact that they are free and a single one is obtained early in the game. We are excited to see how this system helps newer players get tools they need to survive, while veteran players will be able to make game impacting decisions through their choices.''”

Defensive Items
“''A large focus of our Season 3 changes is to make item choices more impactful, especially when it comes to Defenses and Cooldown Reduction.

Additionally we've introduced a new defensive item tree focused on Health and Health regeneration, and a new defensive tree focused more on Magical Protection. ''We've also adjusted several “bloat” items that have, over the course of time, gathered too many stats.
