    The updated versions are:
    iOS: 2.5.16358

    Please find below the list of fixes and changes. Some of them require a download of the new game version and some of them are server side and already in effect.

    • Fixed guild quest contributors to be sorted properly
    • Fixed various guild server crashes
    • Fixed issue regarding long names in boost screen
    • Fixed guild quests to be always randomized properly when the board changes
    • Fixed quest/raffle/rivalry timers to always show the correct time remaining
    • Fixed guild quest progress not always counting even if battle was won and contribution was made
    • Fixed battle logs sometimes showing duplicate entries and scrolling not working
    • Fixed UI inconsistencies in showing which guild won the rivalry in case of a tie
    • Fixed prompt to as select 2 quests even when if there were only 1 selectable
    • Fixed several bugs with Battle Highlights triggering incorrectly
    • iOS: Fixed a bug where you were seemingly teleporting out of the map in rare cases
    • Fixed the loophole allowing players to claim one free boost every time joining a new guild [NEW: 13.10.2017]
    • Fixed guild quest contribution not being counted if player left the battle early [NEW: 13.10.2017]

    Changes/Improvements

    • Joining a new guild will not allow you to claim rewards for quests or boards you have already claimed that week from another guild
    • Added option to disable Battle Highlights
    • Changed Battle Highlights to be less intrusive
    • Improved triggering condition of some Battle Highlights
    • Added text to explain boosts
    • Added visual effect to buying and claiming boosts
    • Added delay after claiming gifted boosts to prevent accidentally buying boosts
    • Removed raffle notification when the user has seen it once in the current play session

    Very nice updates indeed! :)
    This doesn't seem to contain a fix for the guild raffle token farming and items bought with them? Coming later?

    As Zusay said, this will fix the farmers.
    The "rollback" of their doings might take some time.

    This update does contain fixes for the most major exploits:

    "Joining a new guild will not allow you to claim rewards for quests or boards you have already claimed that week from another guild"
    This means that farming easy quest board is not possible anymore because player can claim only 12 easy quests per week, no matter which guild he/she is in.

    "Replaced kill-based guild quests with damage-based quests"
    This means quests are not easier to complete with new low level accounts because they have lower level weapons which do less damage.

    Hey devs, once new guild quest starts i m thinking of changing my guild [going back in old guild] , so will i get rewards when the quest ends in that particular guilds next week?.. It's a noob question, but i need some clarification

    Secondly i joined my old friends guild two days ago because they were first in rivalry (no i m not a guild hoppers, i can share screen shots that the guild i m in wasn't created to complete board 1 only), will i receive token from that guild?

    Main thing : I may loose token, but kill quests replaced by damage ones makes me more than happy. I hope its as good as it sounds. THANK YOU VERY MUCH DEVS:)

    And you listened to exactly what i suggested (AM NOT TAKING THE CREDIT), BUT I LOVE IT:):)

    My intention was just to check if there's something for the guild raffle farming gains.
    I understand that it's a big thing to do, no doubt.
    Also fixing it probably comes harder all the time as there's also compound interest involved as some people have weeks of advantage with the old gains...

    You can claim the reward from your old guild, or new guild, but not from both. The system just makes sure you can't claim more quests then you would be able to by staying in a one guild.

    Do you mean rivarly tokens? Those are awarded based on the situation when the rivarly ends.

    YES once i collect rivalry tokens from the current guild, THEN i wish to switch guild(as soon as quest ends) , so i just want to make sure i get rivalry tokens from new guild that i switched to when the next quest in that guild ends next week.. :)(thanks for the reply of above questions, my English can be a bit confusing, you can ignore my question if you don't understand it correctly)

    EDIT :- I GOT YOUR POINTS, SORRY FOR PESTERING :)
