NOTE: Please do not, under any circumstances, share IMAGES OR VIDEOS from Beta in this or any public Forum thread. Violations can cause players to lose their Beta accounts, or threads to be closed down.
This thread is to provide early insights and discussion on the new Christmas Heroes & Family Bonus.
Don’t get too attached
Details from Beta, especially brand-new Beta content, don’t tend to be very reliable for actual release.
It’s incredibly common that features are changed during Beta testing, or sometimes even after testing but before release. That is, after all, the purpose of Beta testing.
So I wouldn’t get too attached to any of this — it’s not unheard of for entire portions of features to be removed or reworked, or for radical changes to functionality to be made.
Balance Changes for Existing
There are no balance changes to the existing Christmas Heroes at this point. Santa Claus, Mother North, Buddy & Rudolph remain same, just with the family bonus (read below).
