RAID: Shadow Legends – Update Preview 10.55

Plarium is rolling out Update 10.55 for Raid: Shadow Legends, and it’s packed with meaningful changes across Siege, Chimera mechanics, champion quality-of-life systems, and new additions. Whether you’re a casual player or a dedicated Clan warrior, here’s everything you need to know.

The Clan Fortress siege system is getting a serious upgrade:

• Building Upgrades: All fortress buildings can now be upgraded to Level 6.
• More Garrison Slots: Higher levels mean more Defense Teams for both protection and opportunity.
• Cost Scaling: Upgrades from Level 4 to 6 will cost more resources, as will building repairs.
• Higher Rewards: More Slots = more Florins and Mana Orbs, especially when defending or rebattling Shrines of Level 4+.

A major new tactical element is being introduced: Traps. Here’s how they work:

What They Do:

• Conceal champions.
• Apply irresistible debuffs.
• Punish attackers who try to buff on Turn 1.

Where and How:

• Can only be installed in Magic and Defense Towers that are fully repaired.
• Each eligible building gets three random trap options at the start of Siege.
• Clans can place 2–18 traps, depending on Stronghold level.
• Each player gets one trap per Siege, and each tower can hold two traps max.

Tactical Tip:

• Only the first attacker suffers the trap’s effects.
• Smart clans can sacrifice a weaker player to trigger the trap before sending in stronger teams.

Mistake Management:

• Clan Leaders can now remove traps or Defense Teams during the prep phase.
• Removed setups refund resources, and players can redeploy with no penalty.

Two additional Siege tiers are coming:

• Tier 7: Automatically entered when enough Siege Points are collected.
• Tier 8: Requires winning the next Siege with 30+ Attack Scrolls used.
• Relegation: Fail either requirement and your Clan drops a tier—but you retain earned points.

Tier rewards include:

• Mythical Gear
• Crafting Materials
• Clan Points
• Exclusive Avatar Frames

The fearsome Chimera is getting tuned—both nerfs and buffs depending on form.

Ram Form Nerfs:

• Reflect Damage reduced while under Fear.
• No reflect at all under True Fear.
• Turn Meter gain from Lock Horns cut from 50% to 25%.
• Duel HP bar halved for easier phase transitions.

But: Ram Form now has increased Accuracy, making debuffs harder to resist.

Lion Form Buffs:

• Higher Base ATK
• Guaranteed AoE attack from Shred Reality
• Second hit from Atomizing Roar now ignores DEF

Some Chimera Trials are also being rebalanced to be less punishing.

Update 10.55 brings several welcome usability tweaks:

• Vault Champions can now be used as food for Instant Rank-Up.
• Faction Guardians can now be “Commissioned”—permanently sacrificing a champion to lock in stat bonuses.
• Advanced Quests can be refreshed once per day.
• Clan Quest update: Survive 100 turns in Hydra instead of 150.
• Clan Boss Battle Info: Reward chests now clearly show damage thresholds.

New champions are arriving with the patch, including:

• An avian-themed Banner Lord from Androc the Glorious’ Knights of the Wild
• Several additional powerful champions expected to shake up both PvP and PvE metas
