Hey, Raiders! We hope your recruitment of Oz Champions is going smoothly and you’ve already persuaded a few to join your ranks. In this RAID Digest, we’re tackling some of the most frequent community questions around combat modifiers—specifically, how Buffs and Debuffs interact with mechanics like spread, steal, and duration extension, as well as clarifying which Relics require Accuracy. Over time, these systems have grown quite complex, so we wanted to gather all the rules and exceptions into one comprehensive guide. 

Whether you’re a beginner trying to grasp this core mechanics area or a veteran looking to master every edge, this issue has you covered. So, without further ado, let’s jump right in! 

Recently we’ve seen quite a few questions from players as to which Buffs and Debuffs are possible to spread, extend, and manipulate in other ways, so here’s a breakdown of this.

Buffs that cannot be spread:

• Ally Protection 25% & Ally Protection 50%

• Veil & Perfect Veil

• Taunt

• Stone Skin

• Shield provided by gear

• Buffs that function based on stacks: Stormcall, Intercept, Total Guard, Bone Armor, Lightning Orb, Immutable

• Unique Hydra Buffs: Poison Cloud, Life Barrier, Serpent’s Will

• Goldplated (currently, unique to Phrygius the Trovemaster)

• Scarab King’s Shield (currently, unique to this boss)

• Rage (currently, unique to Minotaur boss)

Buffs that cannot be stolen:

• Veil & Perfect Veil

• Buffs that function based on stacks: Total Guard, Bone Armor, Lightning Orb

• Unique Hydra Buffs: Life Barrier, Serpent’s Will

• Goldplated (currently, unique to Phrygius the Trovemaster)

• Scarab King’s Shield (currently, unique to this boss)

• Rage (currently, unique to Minotaur boss)

Buffs duration of which cannot be increased:

• Block Damage

• Unkillable

• Revive on Death

• Stone Skin

• Taunt

• Buffs that function based on stacks: Stormcall, Intercept, Total Guard, Bone Armor, Lightning Orb, Immutable

• Unique Hydra Buffs: Poison Cloud, Life Barrier, Serpent’s Will

• Goldplated (currently, unique to Phrygius the Trovemaster)

• Scarab King’s Shield (currently, unique to this boss)

• Rage (currently, unique to Minotaur boss)

Buffs duration of which cannot be decreased:

• Buffs that function based on stacks: Stormcall, Intercept, Total Guard, Bone Armor, Lightning Orb, Immutable

• Unique Hydra Buffs: Life Barrier, Serpent’s Will

• Goldplated (currently, unique to Phrygius the Trovemaster)

• Scarab King’s Shield (currently, unique to this boss)

• Rage (currently, unique to Minotaur boss)

Debuffs that cannot be spread from the target to other enemies:

• Stun

• Freeze

• Sleep

• Provoke

• Fear & True Fear

• Petrification

• Sheep

• Deathbrand

• Smite

• Siphon

• Entangle

• Dazed (currently, unique to Minotaur boss)

• Decapitated (currently, unique to Hydra boss)

Debuffs duration of which cannot be decreased:

• Bomb (technically speaking, they function based on a countdown mechanic, and their turn count can be decreased, but only by very specific skills)

• Infest

• Smite

• Siphon

• Entangle

• Dazed (currently, unique to Minotaur boss)

• Decapitated (currently, unique to Hydra boss)

Debuffs duration of which cannot be increased: 

• Bomb

• Infest

• Stun

• Freeze

• Sleep

• Provoke

• Fear & True Fear

• Petrification

• Sheep

• Smite

• Siphon

• Entangle

• Dazed (currently, unique to Minotaur boss)

• Decapitated (currently, unique to Hydra boss)

Debuffs, which a Champion cannot transfer from themselves on an enemy target:

• Provoke

• Sheep

• Smite

• Entangled

• Siphon

• Dazed (currently, unique to Minotaur boss)

All the other Debuffs can be spread, changed in their duration, or transferred, with the game taking into account the ACC of the Champion who is making an attempt to do so. In case of the Deflection mechanic (a Debuff is returned onto its producer, like in case of the Deflection gear set or Wand of Submission; not to be confused with the Transfer of Debuffs by skills) the game takes into account the ACC of the initial producer of the Debuff (that is, they use their own ACC to debuff themselves).

Please note that the information above represents the current mechanics of interactions which may change at some point due to broader considerations of the game balance, even though we don’t plan such changes in the near future.

We’ve noticed that players often get confused by which Relics require ACC to land their effects which do not. Basically, in relation to ACC and RES, Relics work in a similar manner to Champion Skills. Thus, we’ve updated Relics’ descriptions in the game to reflect that by default all Relics rely on their owner Champion’s ACC in order to land their negative effects. However, some Relics are exceptions to this rule and in their cases it is now explicitly stated that their effects cannot be resisted.

Here’s a short summary for Relics that are able to land negative effects on the enemy:

Mythical Relics:

• Mind of Marquat - landing of the effect relies on wearer’s ACC

• Diabolical Dice - landing of the effect relies on wearer’s ACC

• Stormcaller - it places a Stormcall Buff on the wearer. In turn, the Buff itself makes the wearer land an irresistible Stun Debuff on an enemy when the Buff reaches 5 stacks.

Legendary Relics:

• Wand of Submission - landing of the effect relies on the ACC of the initial producer of the Debuff

• Blades of Akumori - landing of the effect relies on wearer’s ACC

• Sporeburst Rod - landing of the effect relies on wearer’s ACC

Epic Relics:

• Orb of Transfixion - landing of the effect cannot be resisted

• Hammer of Ending - landing of the effect cannot be resisted

The upcoming installment of Clan vs Clan Tournament will feature Personal Rewards, so make sure you step into it well-prepared and ready for all-kind of last-moment mischief from the enemy Clan ;-)

That’s all for today’s Digest; we hope you found it useful. Stay safe and healthy. See you in two weeks’ time.

• Looks like Ozilda's dark magic got to Abbess. Abbess’s A2 \[Mass Impalement] is currently landing a single-target \[Decrease DEF] debuff instead of an AoE one. Our team is already working on a fix, and we'll keep you posted!

• Running Multi-Battles with Khamir Scald-eye slows your runs over time. The dev team is on it, and a fix is coming in one of our next patches.

• In our latest patch, we fixed the Cowardly Lion's A3 \[Strength In The Pack] cooldown issue: it was stuck at 2 turns instead of decreasing to 1, but it is now functioning correctly.

While on the topic of the Lion, here's a quick clarification: the Cowardly Lion will be permanently available in the Shard pool even after Echoes of Oz concludes (he is dropping from Shards starting today, by the way!). He will also join the Fusion Champion Swap pool at the beginning of 2027. 

Some of you noticed the red dot staying on the “Get Tickets” button. Worry not, this isn't the grand return of the infamous red dot issue! It only pops up when you have a Silver Ticket available in the Web Shop. Grab your ticket, and the dot will go away.

This is a quick clarification for Mac users with M1-M6 chips. When you open RAID on Plarium Play, you will be prompted to install the Rosetta extension if it isn't on your device yet. This extension is required to prevent Events, Tournaments, FAQ from crashing, and it is completely safe. Using Rosetta is a temporary workaround while we work on a permanent fix. 

As promised, we’re keeping you in the loop on when the Argonites Crypt will open its gates. The grand opening isn't on the roadmap for 2026, giving you some extra time to keep pushing toward Lydia or Polara. Time flies fast, so make the most of it!   

The upcoming CvC Tournament will not include Personal Rewards.

That’s all for today, Raiders! If you see the rain falling upward and the clouds twisting into swarms of monkeys, consider it a clear sign to set down your sword and take a well-deserved Friday nap. Have a relaxing weekend, folks!

Update 11.75.0 is here and brings brand-new features, improvements, changes and more! Check out everything that’s coming with the full release notes below:

A new kind of Event is coming soon - prepare to venture into Frontier Events with a strategic map, Outposts with unique challenges, and plenty of rewards up for grabs. Stay tuned for the launch coming soon!

We’re making summon boosts more impactful - from this latest update, we’ll be increasing the multipliers for regular Summon Boosts & Progressive Chance Events. For regular Summon Boosts, we’re increasing the boost from 10x to 15x, and we’re increasing the Progressive Chance Event boosts from 15x, 20x, & 25x to 20x, 25x, & 30x respectively.

For Progressive Chance Events, we’re also adding an alternative method to attain the 30x boost - you can either summon a Legendary that doesn’t match the Champion in Summon Slot, or use a certain number of Shards. The number of Shards required will depend on the type of Shard being used.

Revisit past battles and refine your strategies! We’ve added the ability for you to view the Fortress from the previous Siege during the Prep Phase by tapping the “Battle Map” icon in your Battle Report. Carefully inspect a read-only snapshot of the enemy’s final Fortress layout to analyze your performance ahead of the next Siege.

We’ve adjusted the mechanics for the Total Guard buff. Now, the Provoke debuff will bypass Total Guard, and a Champion under Provoke won’t be able to apply or refresh new Total Guard stacks at the beginning of their turn. The rest of the Total Guard effects, and the wider Mercurial Gear set remain unchanged.

Greetings, Raiders!

Something wicked is happening in Teleria — an odd road of yellow bricks appeared amidst the familiar paths, and where it leads - yet remains a mystery - just as the mystery of whose legs are there protruding from under the house in the bottom right corner of the Bastion. We invite you to take a first step onto this road and encounter whatever is waiting for us at the end of it. And while we’re at it, let’s talk about all the latest news in Teleria, listed in our RAID digest.

Without further ado, let’s start!

We’ve received reports about Destroy Set MAX HP decrease not getting triggered on Borgoth the Scarab King when using AoE attacks while Void Guardian is alive. This is not a bug but rather an intended behavior of the Set.

When using AoE attacks, only the MAX HP of the enemy in the Leader position will be destroyed. If the enemy in the Leader position is already dead, the Champion in the next highest position will have their MAX HP destroyed instead.

Dorothy makes weak hits when under the Enfeeble debuff or against Poison Cloud buffs, even with her active Unity skill that prevents weak hits. This is not a bug, as this effect is affinity-related, and not an override of the said buff and debuff. Since both Enfeeble and Poison Cloud have priority, Dorothy’s weak hits against these two effects are intended behavior. We will also be updating the in-game localization of the skill to make it more accurate.

You may have recently encountered a situation in Champion Proving Grounds, when Dark Fae “steals” your team’s reviver, who then uses their Revive ability on the enemy team, therefore reviving the second Boss. However, after the revival, the Boss appears to be invisible. This is not the intended behavior, and the bug is only visual. We’ve already planned a fix in one of the next big updates.

The upcoming Clan Tournament will feature Personal Rewards, so sharpen your swords, gather your courage, keep your wits about you, and get ready to fight for victory like never before!

This is all we have for you now. Hope you’ll have a great time for yourself, as you know - there’s no place like the weekend!
