Each server calculates the average of the top players' historical highest power at UTC 0:00 daily, called Command Power.

2) Special Migration Slots

When a player's historical highest lord power ≥ the target server's Command Power, they need to consume 1 Special Migration Slot from the target server to migrate in. Otherwise, players can migrate without consuming slots.

B. Special Slot Quantity

Slot quantities are determined by the target server's current season:

3 per server for Season 1

5 per server for Season 2

8 per server for Conquest Season

8 per server for Legendary Season

The quantity will refresh when servers enter a new season.

3) King Setting Migration Conditions

When the King sets migration conditions, there are two options:

A. Allow "Special Migration": Players with power higher than the Command Power will need to consume Special Migration Slots. Other players are allowed to migrate freely.

B. Disallow "Special Migration": All players with power higher than the Command Power are prohibited from migrating to this server. Other players are allowed to migrate freely.

When there is no King, defaults are based on the King's last saved settings.

2. Reconnaissance Mail Optimization

After using the reconnaissance feature, you will receive a star rating of the scouted target's Territory Decorations.

3. The Forge Conversion Optimization

1) Now each converted item can be collected immediately, but Gold must be converted at least 10,000 to be collected.

2) Now you can manually input the number of items you want to convert.

4. Dragon Upgrades and Alliance Help

Alliance Help is now available when Upgrading dragons.
