    1. Update #66: New Specs, Challenge Coins and Balance Changes!
    2.  
    3. Hello everyone! Very excited today to present the latest update for Vault, this time, geared towards newer and older players alike! Throughout the last few months, Vault has undergone a massive transformation to broaden the audience, with mobile progress still underway (more on that soon!). However, I really wanted to spend some time with some awesome new content for our current long timers as well! The team have been hard at work, so let's dive into what we have.
    4.  
    5. New Spec for Each Class!
    6. That's right! Now, when you head to the character select screen, you’ll have the option to choose a brand new spec! To unlock the spec, you’ll need to earn a 300k total score playing the first two specs -- wins or losses, they all count! Once unlocked, the new specs feature a collection of old cards and some new ones as well, all with their own focus area for players to enjoy!
    7.  
    8. I hope you all have a blast with these new specs, and enjoy some new synergies and fun that comes with it.

    13. New Challenge Coins
    14. In addition to the exciting new specs, we also have 4 new Challenge Coins for you all to enjoy -- new ways to play the game, and some new Achievements to earn as well! I hope you enjoy them!
    15.  
    16. Balance Updates
    17. Lots of balance changes which have been queued up over the last few months -- thank you all for your feedback! Discord is the best place to join the discussion, and Dabor has been hosting daily Card and Artifact discussions which all help contribute to our process, alongside the game data! I’ve listed all these below for you to dive through.

    19. Event Cardbacks
    20. In case you missed it, in the previous update, there was some amazing feedback from players that helped me understand some of the concerns around timed events. I appreciate so much that everyone could give feedback and suggestions in such a civil way, and it made me rethink the way these are served, based on the concerns. As I mentioned in the comments, the process we've implemented now is that if you miss these event cardbacks, they can now be purchased in the Unlocks screen, at just a slightly higher price than others. Both the Treasure Goblin and Chinese New Year card backs are now available for purchase for those who missed it! A great solution, thank you all so much for your feedback!

    24. Mobile Testing
    25. We should have an announcement coming in the next few weeks about Mobile Testing. We’re getting a few tweaks and changes made, please join Discord to be the first to know how to get your hands on this awesome new way to play!

    29. As always, thank you so much for all the positive feedback and support for Vault. Every lovely comment and review helps fuel the team here to keep pushing. We're excited for Mobile, and we're also in the process of getting fully verified for Steam Deck as well. There's lots of new things on the horizon, and I hope you enjoy what we've prepared today!
