TGIF! Viking Clan Updates for April 4, 2025

Happy Friday, players!

Thank you to everyone for joining us for our April Livestream this past week! It was great connecting with the community, giving away exclusive items to all who tuned in and we even shared first details on the new Blitz Mode we’ve been working on! If you missed it, you can view the Livestream HERE. We’ve got lots more planned in the coming months, so stay locked in on the TGIF for all the news you need!

In-Game Updates:

The Guild Wars event begins today! Viking Clan players can dive in starting at 10AM (PDT). Rally your team and make sure you’re all enrolled before it kicks off. Battle hard for the best rewards and good luck!

A NEW Prestige Location is here in Viking Clan: return to the mystic realm of Myrkvidr! Eligible Vikings can now complete Bronze Tier Adventures to earn extra Coin, bonus XP, Prestige Coins, and Skill Points. Learn more about Prestige Locations here: https://support.kanoplay.com/hc/en/6-viking-clan/faq/702-prestige-locations/?p=all

Next week join us for an Admin Blitz event! If you're around on the following date, make sure to drop by & nab some sweet Coin off of the Kano folk. Watch out for the group chats that get posted beforehand and remember to bump up those Admins Killed and Listed stats.

Admin Blitz events will now also have a special Kano item giveaway, so don’t miss out! We hope to see you there on:

Tuesday, April 8th - Server 1, Server 2, and the Kongregate & Armor Servers @ 3PM (PDT).

In case you missed it last week, we just launched a brand new season of the Battle Pass! Available right now in-game, you can check out the Free and Premium reward tracks for all the great rewards you can unlock. Remember you only have until April 23rd until it’s gone forever.

Don’t miss your chance to check out the all new Legendary Easter Crates! These come packed with ultra powerful Legendary weapons to obtain, so check it out while they are available. Just a reminder that the 3 x Master Crate packs come with a guaranteed Legendary drop every time!

Announced at our Discord Stream, then shown off on Tuesday at our major Livestream are brand new Blitz Modes starting with the Reset Rumble! These new modes will offer a fun twist on the traditional Blitz event by offering unique modifiers or new rules. We have started off with the Reset Rumble which has these new changes:

During the event all players will have their cost reset back to base price (your cost will revert back to what it was after the hour ends).
Players are not able to heal while on the hitlist.

Thank you to everyone who has tried it out and shared their feedback with us. Please keep it coming and also let us know what kind of Blitz modes you’d like to see in the future!

As part of our ongoing attempt to balance the game's economy, we will be making the following changes next week.

Familia Earnings

There will be a limit on individual contributions to Familia/Inner Circle/Top Squad Earnings at 1 Quintillion per contributing member (not 1 Quintillion total)

PvP Cash/Coin Loss

Originally we made a change last year and removed the $500,000 limit on Cash/Coin that could be lost in a PVP fight as we wanted the Cash/Coin penalty to be more impactful. However, in doing so, we made it too penalizing hence this change to re-introduce a limit at a more reasonable value.

We will be limiting the amount of Cash/Coin a player can lose in a fight/battle. It is currently 5% of cash/coin on hand but we will be changing that to 1 Quadrillion.

Battle Arena / Faction Wars Cash Rewards

Currently because the reward are a multiplier of income, Cash/Coin rewards are too high and often result in a max cash/coin removal issue. We will be limited the Cash/Coin rewards at 1 Quintillion.

Our goal is to help reduce Cash/Coin inflation in the games so that we can make things more affordable. We have more changes to come, so keep up to date by reading future TGIFs and attending future Livestreams.

Lastly, a reminder that twice a week there are new item drops in-game. Limited Time items on Tuesdays and Limited Quantity on Fridays. Keep an eye out for anything that catches your interest!

Tip of the Week: If you are looking for alternative payment methods for getting Favor Points, just go to the Shop and check our "New Payment Options". These will give a larger variety of options for making your purchase (including PayPal).

Coming soon!
