Our Christmas Event Series Is Here!
The glow of red and green lights and the sheen of white snow can only mean one thing: it’s going to be a holly jolly Christmas! To celebrate, we’ve prepared a slate of festive events:
- Christmas Party: Complete quests for special Christmas presents!
- Smithy Specials: Head to the Blacksmith for this limited-time deal! Purchase discounted equipment blueprint fragments, Legendary equipment materials, and more.

Awaken Your Iconic Equipment to New Heights!
Except for the weapon Trial of the Lost Kingdom and gathering equipment, all Legendary equipment can be awakened into Iconic equipment. Iconic equipment is split into five upgradeable tiers.
*All Iconic effects already in the game will now be Iconic I tier.
The cost of awakening a piece of equipment and its Iconic effects depend on its level and type.
- Awakening to Iconic I tier requires Iconic Crystals and Gold.
- Subsequent Iconic tiers require equipment blueprints, equipment materials, and Gold.
After a piece of equipment is awakened to the next Iconic tier, it will inherit its previous refinement level and special talent. It will also gain a bonus to its attributes.
Equipment set effects will not be affected when awakening one of the constituent pieces to a new Iconic tier.
Your kingdom must be in Season 1 or later to access Iconic equipment and its related systems.
Transform Your City Themes With Transmog!
Using the transmog feature, you can change the appearance of a city theme to that of another city theme, while keeping its original attribute bonuses.
- You can only transmog a city theme into a theme of the same quality level and unit type.
- You can only transmog city themes you permanently own.
- Transmogging requires special items, which can be acquired from a variety of events.
Get Inducted Into the Hall of Fame!
At the end of each Lost Kingdom, kingdoms that performed well will unlock the Go Down In History event. Through this event, the top governors in each kingdom will have a chance to be permanently inducted into their kingdom’s Hall of Fame.
The Go Down In History event will begin in your kingdom at the end of the Season if your kingdom meets the requirements:
- Before reaching the Season of Conquest, your kingdom will only receive this event if it managed to capture the Great Ziggurat at any point during the Lost Kingdom.
- After reaching the Season of Conquest, your kingdom will be ranked with the rest of your camp by the number of Autarch Testimonies received. If you rank in the top half, you will receive this event.
The number of governors your kingdom can induct into its Hall of Fame each Season depends on a few factors:
- In the King of the Nile story, Hall of Fame seats will be based on which coalition occupied the Great Ziggurat at the end of the Lost Kingdom. Kingdoms from the same starting province as the coalition will receive 3 Hall of Fame seats each. Kingdoms in the same camp as the coalition but with different starting provinces will receive 1 Hall of Fame seat each.
- In other stories, all kingdoms in the camp that controlled the Great Ziggurat at the end of the Lost Kingdom will each receive 3 Hall of Fame seats. All other participating kingdoms will receive 1 Hall of Fame seat each.
The Go Down In History event is split into 3 phases: the voting phase, speech phase, and announcement phase. Each phase lasts for 3 days.
- After the event begins, all governors will receive a “candidate score” based on their total kills and deaths in the Lost Kingdom. The top 20 governors in your kingdom by candidate score will be added to the Hall of Fame candidate list.
- During the voting phase, the top 300 governors in your kingdom by power will be able to cast votes for candidates. The candidates with the most votes will be inducted into the Hall of Fame.
- During the speech phase, inductees can submit a written speech, which will be added with them to the Hall of Fame. Once this period ends, they won’t be able to change their speech.
- During the announcement phase, the inductees will be permanently added to the kingdom’s Hall of Fame.
*The Go Down In History event will only appear for Lost Kingdoms that began after December 11, 2023. View the event in-game to learn more.
