Retainer definitions and progression, Merchant Ship rules, clearer royal Favors and Hero Reset requirements. Explore the complete 1.0.44 → 1.0.45 source comparison.
Based on the original client configuration and English text. Bundled definitions can precede live availability, which may vary by kingdom. Configuration record counts are not counts of newly playable features.
The client adds 65 Retainer definitions, 5,609 rank rows, 1,000 Codex rows, 538 migration rows and 38 assignment-slot rows. The new recruitment setup, profession packs and token-choice descriptions cover Doctors, Drillmasters, Bannerets, Scholars, Tax Collectors, Timbermasters, Provisioners, Architects and Envoys. Some definitions have future-only unlock values; a bundled entry is not a promise that it is available now.
The new Retainer definitions give both named characters 100 affinity levels. Each still needs 585 tokens in total, including 10 for recruitment. VIP 1–7 now contain Hathaway Tokens, and VIP 8–14 contain Derian Tokens, replacing the older shard IDs. Hathaway’s chest changes to the Deluxe Intel Chest at level 80. The website’s named Retainer guides use these new levels and pack contents.
New recruitment text says a duplicate Retainer converts into 10 shards of that same Retainer. The Codex EXP item description now explicitly says excess Retainer Tokens also convert into Codex EXP. The full comparison retains the exact migration mappings. These mappings alone cannot establish how an individual account was converted or compensated.
New rules describe unlocking up to four slots by upgrading the relevant building type, using only the highest-level building of that type. Most new slot rows use building levels 1, 5, 10 and 15. The Castle category is a separate two-slot configuration. Exact building IDs and conditions are available in the comparison.
New Merchant Ship rules define five cargo categories: Construction, Research, Retainers, Heroes and Decorations. Each voyage offers three randomly selected categories; choose one before departure as the target cargo. The five cargo-item descriptions say they open when the return rewards are claimed.
Two random reward slots start unlocked. Dispatching additional Retainers as sailors can unlock two more, for a maximum of four random slots. Quick Dispatch is described, and sailor duty does not affect those Retainers’ Castle building assignments.
The revised King rules explicitly allow Lords without a Royal Title and without a punishment to praise the King. Each praise immediately grants a chosen Favor for 10 minutes. Each Lord has five praises per week, resetting Monday at 00:00 Server Time. These are clarified client rules; they do not prove that every kingdom enables the system together.
New interface text covers Auto-Grant Favors, automatic recipients and selecting multiple Lords for awards. A new Royal Wagon status describes upgrading the next four refreshed wagons, ending when all four upgrades have been used. The Royal Carriage configuration also reorders its coordinate list; this alone is not evidence of a new buff value.
Revised descriptions track the total praise count during a reign and retain the latest 50 individual records. On a new reign, individual records clear while the total praise count is retained, according to the text.
The updated rules specify that a Hero can be reset at Lv.50 or above, or with any skill at Lv.2 or above. New text rejects a Hero that has already been reset. The warning that inherited EXP and inherited Skill Medals do not earn Alliance Duel points remains present.
New text adds a confirmation showing the items received and lost, remaining monthly attempts, a history view and a filter for logs without an undo option. Revised rules describe undoing supported item actions before their countdown expires. The text does not specify a universal monthly attempt count.
The source adds a Joan of Arc hero record and a linked skill definition. Leon’s army-job field changes. Soldier parameter rows, enemy lineups, monster definitions, appearances and projectile settings also change. These configuration changes do not establish a newly recruitable hero or a universal live combat buff.
New research descriptions explicitly identify affected squads and distinguish PvE, attacking and defending effects. This wording alone does not establish a numeric research change. Chat gains Auto-Translate controls and enabled/disabled messages; alliance notice definitions and reinforcement-target-lost messages are added.
The default building table changes early prerequisites, production parameters and storage values. These are separate from the retained building-cost variant used by the site. Resource-node expiry parameters and Trial Tower reward/display definitions change; the full comparison shows the exact IDs and values.
The comparison covers Kingdom Duel variants, Arena grouping, tutorials and stage presentation, sound, 22 added and six removed logical reward records, and 144 shop records no longer bundled. Rows moved between split files are matched before these counts are calculated. Archive removals do not establish removal from live servers.
The client gains payment-method selection and Web Events text, retainer pack labels, a clarification that Alliance Contribution can be spent in the Alliance Shop, and a Gem-use confirmation description for spending more than 1,000 Gems at once. Client links and offer descriptions can precede live availability.
Compared all 1,071 original tables in 1.0.44 with all 1,082 in 1.0.45: 937 are byte-identical, 134 existing tables changed, 11 tables were added and none were retired. English localization adds 478 entries, revises 51 and removes none.
The download retains every field group, affected ID, exact before-and-after value, source hash and split-file layout change. The table below groups split files by logical table.
Scope: original configuration tables and English localization. Executable code, artwork pixels and server-controlled behavior are outside this comparison. Territory and specialized guides keep their earlier verified source labels pending separate review.
