Battle Coliseum Down!
You may have noticed that the battle coliseum is down. This is on purpose!
Purge and I have taken the coliseum down temporarily to work on a number of things like updating loot drops, an opponent reset, and more!While there is no hard date for when it will reopen, we are aiming to be back up and running around January 29. We’ve given a long time for an estimate just in case something happens (lol), but we're aiming to have things done before that!

When and where was this announced? I did see some posts on the battle forum about it having been previously mentioned, but I never saw the original post or announcement. I have been active very sporadically so I'm not surprised I missed it, just curious.
Very excited to be able to battle for loot for a few opponents over again! I always wish I had my pet more trained when there's a reset, but gosh it takes forever. :P

Chucks! I put my battler in the resort just the other day. I'm losing all those days...if we had foresight!

Thank you very much!
I don't remember seeing this as a "banner announcement"; would have gotten battles on the new opponents since I last actively battled had I known!

I suppose they'll reorganize the battle shop - exchange weapons again etc. I'm glad I got my provisory shopping in juuust yesterday (and probably left out important stuff, that'll be gone after reopening)
As for XP, I'm very sad about it, but they probably are thinking about some changes there as well - like use XP to reduce stats for restatting (esp. due to the weapon changes)

@Draken We might do something differently this year with challengers. Not sure right now!
@Rocketlauncher Because they're on a different system technically then the other bits of battle are on.

I'm excited! I don't think I've ever gone that long without doing my BQs though. My days are going to feel so incomplete lol

The healer, armory, and scrolls are open.
I wonder why not the battle shop and exp pages?

Wow this is going to be quite a job for you. Any chance that our minions will get their own mini battles too?

@Foghawk This is the opponent reset. They have to take the BC down while editing and resetting things so we can’t battle in the meantime. They’re probably not taking anything away - other than achievement locking some of the new loot weapons - so it’s most likely that anything you could earn before will still be earnable once it reopens.

guessing that means this months challengers will be delayed as well then? i.e the CS one and whatever theme this yr will be

It's not clear to me from this announcement whether battling will reopen before the opponent reset or afterward. It would have been nice to get a deadline more specific than "early [this] year".

Awesome. While I am sad I can't do battle quests, I am looking forward to being able to fight all the easier opponents again lol

It's happening! I didn't get everything done I wanted to but I got enough. Wish I had a more recent pic of my total battles before the reset. Going to focus on being excited now!

@BoaConstrictor Yes, they finished training and I was able to put them back in just now!

@WonderFox
Has one of your pets just finished and you could put it into another session?
If so, that's nice. Still I'd very often need Spend XP for my levels...

Whoops, I knew I should have done my BQs this morning. :P
Anyway, I'm looking forward to the reset and seeing whatever other changes we get! Hope everything goes well with the preparations c:

@BoaConstrictor training isn't affected! You just have to go through the "train your pets" link under the 'dailies' section!

So glad I did some battling earlier today and did my battle quests for the first time in a while! Looking forward to the update. :)

I've just noticed, that Spend XP is also affected - this is needed for training and hopefully not down until the 29th?!!! Or is training also down?

I am THRILLED about these new updates and stuff. But I am a bit sad as my buddy account will have expired by then, and gold accounts are about the only time I do battle quests. (Though I am very glad I tackled all of my Secret opponents last week! Whew, just in time!)

Thank you for the update! Looking forward to getting back in again in the new year! Gives me time to hoard some SP for new tier 8 weapons!
