Following your feedback on your experiences out there against the hordes, we’ve been hard at work trying to plug gaps in the barricades on the back end to make things more comfortable.

Known Issues:

Our team are looking into these issues as a priority and hope to have an update in the near future. Thank you for your continued support and patience.
Happy slaying!
