TL;DR
- The Player vs Player (PvP) combat mode is launched in DeFi Kingdoms, available for all players.
- Players can unite their heroes as Bannermen in the city of Submersia to gain influence and rewards in $JEWEL.
- The equipment shop is now open, offering weapons and armor for the heroes.
The launch of the Player vs Player (PvP) combat mode in DeFi Kingdoms marks an exciting milestone for players, as they will be able to compete against each other in the new exclusive region known as the “Torn Islands,” using the Metis blockchain.
To access the Coliseum, players must select “Torn Islands” from the menu or manually add the Metis RPC and switch their network in their wallet. Players need $METIS tokens to sign any transaction in this new environment. This addition not only expands the gameplay options but also lays the groundwork for a more robust PvP ecosystem.
One of the standout features of the new system is the “PvP Battles,” where players can select three heroes to challenge other players for glory and potential rewards. Through the registration zone, players can customize their battles by choosing the background, battle budget, and action timer.
The latter is crucial, as if time runs out, the enemy can execute penalty actions. Additionally, advanced settings have been introduced that allow for customized restrictions, adding an extra level of strategy to each fight.
Furthermore, heroes can be pledged as Bannermen to the city of Submersia, granting players influence. The longer they remain pledged, the greater the influence they will gain. This influence not only provides them with $JEWEL rewards but also allows players to participate in voting and sponsorship of battles, adding a layer of interactivity and strategy to the PvP experience.
New opportunities and the future of PvP in Defi Kingdoms
The equipment shop, which had previously opened in the Crystalvale Market, now offers a variety of weapons and armor that heroes can acquire with gold. This shop is essential, as heroes will no longer receive basic equipment from the guild, forcing players to properly equip their heroes before entering combat. The pricing mechanics in this shop are also dynamic; as demand increases, the prices of items rise, adding an element of market economy to the game.
Aside from PvP combat and the influence system, the Torn Islands offer a variety of activities for players, such as buying heroes, equipment, and pets through player-to-player markets.
Consumables like potions are also available for purchase in the Bazaar. The interactions and diversity of options ensure that players have a vibrant and active environment to engage in.
In the future, the introduction of DFK tournaments with sponsored prizes is expected, promising to elevate the excitement in the PvP arena even further. This update is just the beginning, as the developers continue to work on new features and functionalities that will enrich the player experience.
The active participation of the community during beta testing has been crucial in shaping these developments, demonstrating the team’s commitment to its players and its desire to continually improve the DeFi Kingdoms ecosystem.
