Talk with Designers: Waves of Intrigue

Hey guys! Thank you for your incredible support and enthusiasm for AFK Journey. We're excited to announce that the new "Waves of Intrigue" season is arriving with next month's update. Here's a sneak peek at what's coming!

 

What does the season in AFK Journey look like?

Many new players from the Asia-Pacific region have joined our epic journey since August 8. Here's a quick rundown for them: The story and content you experience when you first enter Esperia are all part of the "Starter Story." Once you reach the required Resonance Level, advance in the story, and your server has been open for at least 40 days, you'll unlock brand new content as part of the ongoing season.

 

Each season lets you and your heroes explore new areas, experience exciting stories, meet new heroes, enjoy new gameplay, and earn plenty of rewards. The adventure continues as one season wraps up and another begins!

 

Will my game progress reset in a new season?

Not if you are currently playing the Starter Story!

 

All your progressions during the Starter Story, including your hero collection, hero tiers, Exclusive Equipment upgrades, Resonance Level, Class Equipment, and Artifacts, are considered "non-season" content. This means it won't reset with each season and will be preserved permanently.

 

Each season introduces unique "progression systems" designed to enhance your gaming experience. These systems may adjust hero skills and battlefield mechanics to add new strategic elements to the game. Season features also offer a wealth of resources to help you get the most out of the new season.

 

Seasons are our way of addressing issues like power creep, feature overload, and high barriers for returning players. We aim to prevent the stats from growing endlessly, ensure players can focus on a manageable number of features to play, and make sure returning players don't feel left behind. Our goal is to keep the story of Esperia engaging and captivating for everyone, no matter how long their journey takes.

 

What's coming in the new season?

We have prepared an exciting new season filled with fresh stories, gameplay, and tons of rewards!

-New Story: Explore a new part of Esperia and uncover intriguing new tales and secrets.

-New Gameplay: Enjoy relaxing activities like Fishing or dive into strategic challenges to build the ultimate formation. We hope you find and enjoy the variety of features we've lined up for the season!

-Rewards & Gifts: Start the season strong with plenty of Invite Letters, Diamonds, and Exclusive Equipment upgrade materials. You can earn plenty of free gifts every month from season and non season features or events. Make sure to follow our social media so you don't miss out! Plus, you can now earn Season Tokens from seasonal features to redeem heroes not available in Emporium and other valuable resources to help you get the heroes you want.

 

What should I keep in mind before starting the new season?

After giving you a brief overview of the seasons in AFK Journey, here's some additional info to keep in mind:

1. Each season starts and ends globally at the same time, so everyone has access to the same content. If you want to explore past seasons, you can do so in "Peaks of Time," where you can access areas and replay stories of previous seasons. For example, the "Song of Strife" season will be available on October 1st with the launch of the Peaks of Time feature. Players who have completed the main story quests of the Starter Story will be able to access this season.

 

2. Compared to the Song of Strife season, getting into the new Waves of Intrigue season is now much easier. You can unlock it by reaching Resonance Level 240 and completing the Ryeham Tales chapter in Starter Story. To help balance the experience between early and late starters, we will store missed AFK Rewards and Instant AFK rewards, so you won't fall too far behind if you enter the season a few days late. Additionally, the Baseline Level feature will help bridge the gap between players of different levels. As you progress, the stat growth from Resonance Levels will slow down to avoid a significant disparity between long-time and new players.

 

How does the season calculation work?

Season calculation rules may vary, so always check the game announcements for the latest details. For the "Song of Strife" season, here's how it works:

1. You earn points based on your progress in seasonal features, which you can redeem for rewards.

-Season Resonance Level: 10 points per average Hands of Resonance hero level (rounded down)

-Season Equipment: 5 points per average Equipment level across all classes (rounded down)

-Season Artifact: 5 points per level from 1-20 (including Level 20) and 15 points per level for Level 21 or above.

-Season Magic Charm: 20 points for each Mythic Magic Charm, up to 400 Magic Charms and a maximum of 8,000 points.
