Under investigation
Here is the issue reported that we've been investigating:
- Huffer/Lockdown ability change
- Late last year we had to revert the ability rework for Huffer/Lockdown’s ability due to an unforeseen issue related to the HQ core. We are currently working at resolving this issue in order to bring back the ability rework.
We would like to thank you for your time and patience, and if you have any issues to report, please get in touch with us here: [url=mailto:support@transformersearthwars.com]support@transformersearthwars.com[/url]. Alternatively, you can reach out to us in game via Menu > Community > Contact Support.
Bug Fixes
The following bug fixes are coming to the game!
- Springer/Astrotrain ability stuns combiners
- G1 Prowl/Brawl affects other gunners rockets
- If another bot triggers Rocket Barrage in the same squad asProwl/Brawl with their G1 core equipped, they would also set the targets on fire. This core should only set on fire the buildings struck byProwl/Brawl rockets. This fix will be implemented next week.
- When used on defence, Springer/Astrotrain’s ability would stun combiners if the projectile targeted it. Combiners should not be stunned under any circumstances. This has been addressed and will be fixed this week.
Twitch
There will be no stream this Thursday.
We’ll be back LIVE Thursday, January 24 @5pm UTC!

New Bots in progress
Who would have guessed Streetwise & Sinnertwin are the new recruits?!
Yes, they are joining the Earth Wars at the end of the current saga!
Streetwise (sometimes also known as Streetstar or Streetsmart) is a member of the Protectobots, a team of emergency, rescue and law enforcement bots. Other Protectobots already in the game are Hot Spot and First Aid. They were designed to protect humans from the Combaticons team that can combine into Bruticus.
In the case of Streetwise, our design was informed by the car whose design we thought looked really slick in the Generations Combiner Wars toyline.
Sinnertwin (sometimes also known as Twinstrike) is a member of the Terrorcons, a team of positively insane and exceptionally cruel Decepticons. They all have personality disorders and Sinnertwin’s resides in his sadistic nature when it comes to killing. He is the fourth Terrorcon to join the game after Hun-Gurrr, Cutthroat and Rippersnapper.
Our design for the game was also inspired by the Power of the Primes toyline.
Under investigation
Here is the issue reported that we've been investigating:
- Players have reported that the amount of healing provided by First Aid/Reflectordoes not match the value displayed on the character’s screen. We are working at aligning these values in a future content update.
We would like to thank you for your time and patience, and if you have any issues to report, please get in touch with us here: [url=mailto:support@transformersearthwars.com]support@transformersearthwars.com[/url]. Alternatively, you can reach out to us in game via Menu > Community > Contact Support.
Bug Fixes / Balance Update
The following bug fixes and balance update are coming to the game!
- G1 Prowl &Brawl power core
- We have updated the description of the G1 Prowl and Brawl power core. It now reflects more accurately the amount of extra damage dealt for every level of the core.We have fixed a bug affecting the duration of the fire effect created by the G1 Prowl/Brawl power core. Previously, it could last up to 12 secs doubling the amount of damage provided over time. It now lasts for 6 secs as per the description.
- White Kremzeek
- We decided to disable the ability of White Kremzeek to target the HQ directly. Taking down the HQ easily from afar goes against our design idea of battles and unfortunately the Adaptive Shielding core did not prove to be a sufficient counterbalance. We are putting the White Kremzeeks in line with similar strong effects like Death Ray. The White Kremzeeks will stay as they are in any other aspect and will still be very useful against other targets than the HQ or in raids.
- This balance update will go live at some point this Thursday.

Bug Fixes
The following bug fixes are coming to the game later today!
- We received a large number of player reports regarding First Aid/Reflectorshealing stat not matching the amount they actually deal.
- This issue was caused by the healing and bot power values being artificially high on the bots profile screen.
- We have adjusted these values on the profile screen so they now match the effective power and healing of these bots on the battlefield.These changes are purely cosmetic and won’t make any difference for these bots healing or attacking power.
- We have adjusted these values on the profile screen so they now match the effective power and healing of these bots on the battlefield.These changes are purely cosmetic and won’t make any difference for these bots healing or attacking power.
- We fixed several issues affecting bots equipped with G1 Cores making them appear as the opposite faction bot in some specific situations.
- We fixed an issue getting bots stuck on the spot walking.
- Huffer and Lockdown's Special Ability turrets will now inherit a percentage of the health and damage stats from their creator. Please check the details on the wiki.
- Solved bugs affecting Blaster and Soundwave’s minions making them die immediately after deploy.
- Combiners could be previously be stunned by the Thunder Towers in Raid. This is now fixed.
- After triggering an outpost and entering stealth mode, outpost bots were targetingSlash/Rippersnapper without attacking them, pushing the bots off canvas. It is now fixed in most cases.

New Bots: Streetwise & Sinnertwin
Two Special class bots: Streetwise and Sinnertwin are joining the Earth Wars this weekend!
Nothing escapes Streetwise's notice, and even the most seemingly insignificant details get filed away in his hyperactive processor for further analysis. Put simply, Streetwise is an environmental sponge.
Put him anywhere in the galaxy and he'll know the place like the back of his hand in hours. Right down to the local dialects and slang expressions - which he often adopts.
With armaments such as double-barrelled air compressor cannon and sensor-blinding photon pistol, he packs a punch equally in both robot and car mode.
Inactivity weighs heavily on Sinnertwin, and if he's not ravaging or destroying something on a fairly regular basis he gets a little restless, and restlessness equates to going out and finding something to tear to shreds with his teeth, horns or claws.
Mayhem on any level brings him a singular pleasure, and Autobot cries and screams are music to his audio modules.
In his twin-headed dragon-like beast mode he has numerous weapons at his disposal, including a back-mounted flame cannon and internal flamethrowers that allow both heads to breathe fire.
Streetwise and Sinnertwin have the same ability.
Timesplit Grenade: Shoots a timesplit grenade. When caught in the explosion, every ally is 30% faster while enemies are 30% slower. Both effects last for seconds.
Their challenge battle will be available via newsfeed prior to the weekend event!
Android Account Recovery

Pretty much this. I quit about this time last year for good cause it took almost your entire weekend to compete in an event to be in an alliance.
It lost the fun and became a chore, so I left.

It just got big, you had a smaller group of players ruling the game and there are some BS things that have happened. It's just the life of a game sadly.
It needs to be better on more casual players. Casual free to play players basically can't do too much with any speed

New Bots: Blades & Dirge
Two Aerial bots are joining the Earth Wars this weekend!
Despite his aerial proficiency and high-altitude targeting dexterity, Blades is a 'street-level' kind of 'bot, preferring to look his foe in the optic and get down and dirty like the streetfighter he is. He considers long-range attacks unsporting and cowardly, and would rather detach his rotor blades and slash through the enemy ground forces. But most times Blades concedes he was built for the skies, and his twin rocket launchers and dazzling photon bursts make him a highly effective aerial asset. Something his fellow Protectobots deeply appreciate.
Safe Zone: Drop a hack bomb dealing damage in an area. Confuse the targets for seconds (reducing their attack speed to 40% and making them attack your foes).
It's fair to say Dirge is a tank half-empty kind of 'con. His mournful, silent manner unnerves even his fellow Decepticons, and the sound of Dirge's engines has an uncanny effect on friend and foe alike. The chilling overture is merely the prelude to the petrifying fear they induce in whoever's in audio range, the unique combination of frequencies inducing acute, paralyzing fear and disorientation. However, if Dirge's concentration slips, he can fall prey to his own engine noise. But then he always has his air-to-air missile launchers and machine gun ports to fall back on.
Fear Inducing Signal: Drop a hack bomb dealing damage in an area. Confuse the targets for seconds (reducing their attack speed to 40% and making them attack your foes).
Check out Dirge in battlefields in Skywarp Greer's latest video!
DIRGE : First Look. New Bot: Transformers Earth Wars
Dawn Of TITANS
The Prime Core struggle has woken from their slumber the towering behemoths Metroplex and Trypticon. It will take the combined might of a whole Alliance to take them down before they ravage through Cybertron.
You can soon fight the Titans Metroplex and Trypticon in Raid battles and win cool new rewards...
More powerful than even the strongest combiner, these two Titans are coming to Earth Wars to fight against you in Raids!
Stay tuned for more details.
Under investigation
Here is the issue reported that we've been investigating:
- Slash & Rippersnapper change targets and prioritise enemy outpost bots even though they are far away

Transformers Earth Wars mobile game is ready to very literally take things to the next level! Thanks to Youtube member Skywarp Greer we have his view of his beta test of the mighty Titan who don’t mind fightin’, Metroplex! And thanks to Youtube member Engineer Hoist we have a view of his beta test of the one mighty beast who turns your city into a feast, Trypticon! Although the factors mentioned in the videos are subject to change they do both note a repayment of ability points for every life bar taken out – how many life bars there are for each appears to vary, and also changes depending on whether they are in robot or city/base mode. Both have an attack range that stretches across the whole board and appear to be a far more formidable force than you’ve encountered in your playing before. It does not appear clear what will trigger robot mode versus base mode on these giants, but it is going to be a feature exclusive to Alliance raids so you may not be seeing these all the time, but it will surely be worth the wait. Skywarp Greer mentions he believes these to be up and ready sometime next week, possibly Tuesday or Wednesday. Ready to jump back into the game to check these beasts out?

Congratulations!
Titans have arrived!
The behemoths known as Titans have landed on Earth! The Titans are currently live in Raid battles!
A Challenge Battle facing off against the Titans is available via an in-game newsfeed now.
We have also introduced a new battle boost inspired by the Titans ability! This battle boost will be a part of the reward in the Titan Raids event, Titan Beam!
Titan Beam: Summon the Titans power with this beam dealing huge amounts of damage (3,060 for HQ16) in a large area.
Note: The amount of damage changes depend on the booster level (MK1,2 & 3) and HQ Level. Check out our wiki for the stats.
As we mentioned in last week’s newsletter, there will be a Hall of Fame in the newsfeed following the event listing which alliance used the least amount of attacks to take down The Titans!
New 5-Star Legacy Crystals
Our newest lineup of powerful 5-Star bots has hit the store, but don’t fret if you haven’t finished collecting all of the previous rotation!
The following 5-Star bots were added to the shop as a 5-Star Legacy Crystal yesterday:
Elita-1 & Lugnut
Blaster & Soundwave
Sludge & Straxus
Prowl & Brawl
Ratchet & Hook
Shanix Store Update
The Shanix Store rework is at last completed! The update to the store went live yesterday. The following changes have been made:
- Squad Core Chip added to the store
- Power Core Chips have been removed as they have not been very popular
Under investigation
Here are the issues reported that we've been investigating:
- Long loading times during the first boot after a fresh install or a version update. Loading time goes back to normal after a restart.
- Slash & Rippersnapper tend to chase Outpost Bots after finishing their abilities even though those Bots are far away.
- Inspiring charge effect doesn’t apply to all bots.
- We are investigating why in some instances the effect doesn’t apply.
We would like to thank you for your time and patience, and if you have any issues to report, please get in touch with us here: support@transformersearthwars.com. Alternatively, you can reach out to us in game via Menu > Community > Contact Support.
Bug Fix
The following bug Fix is coming to the game soon!
- Sky Lynx and Blitzwing can’t do a second explosion after igniting a target.
- In order for Flamestrike to cause an explosion, the target needs to be under the effect of either Cloud or to be Ignited (Blue flame). Due to the bug fix of making the duration of ignition be the stated 6 secs, the second explosion will only be possible when SL or BW are close to the target. Exploding the Shroud has not been affected and it should be possible to chain a number of explosions while the Shroud is active.

That was one of those rumors I'd heard or seen wished about since the beginning of this game.
It's been fun taking teams against Metroplex. They get sent packing, of course. But it's still fun.
Posted by Stargrave on June 12th, 2019 @ 2:29pm CDT
If you played last weekend's anniversary event you no doubt earned a few bot power ups. Well now it's time to put them to the test.
Grab your mobile devices and log in this weekend and play a few rounds with your digital Transformers collection.

New War League: Prime League
Later next week we will be introducing a new war league Prime League above the current highest Cybertron League.
This league is a bit different than the current leagues. The difference is that in every war battle in this league, special effects will apply to the defenders' buildings. Effects that can vary from an increase in HP or DPS to increased speed, or range of the defences.
The League effects will usually change every other month and will be clearly displayed in the war declaration screen and in the Battle/Scouting screens.
We will also be tracking the war wins for Prime league separately, to highlight how alliances are handling this new challenge and who is the best at it. You will be able to see these wins in the Alliance Info Page and also as a new field in the Wars Won leaderboard.
We are also planning on having a seasonal tally and highlight which alliances have won the most Prime League wins during that season. These seasons will match the change of League effects and will be clearly communicated in advance before they start. More details on this later.
League Promotion
Since we know that this additional challenge is not for everyone, we will not be automatically promoting alliances to this new League after winning in Cybertron. Instead, the Alliance's officers will get the option to promote to Prime League after winning a war in Cybertron.
In the Alliance war screen, officers will now see the above, with information of the Prime League’s effects and the option to Promote or continue fighting in Cybertron. This promotion option will only be available to go into Prime League for now. The rest of the leagues will still use the automatic promotion system based on wins.
The new Prime League will go live next Thursday on the 20/06!
War History
With the newly updated war league, we also wanted to bring a much-requested feature. The ability to check the war history of the alliance.
On the Alliance info screen for each alliance, you will get an extra War History tab. In this tab you can check the wars this alliance has taken part in the last 15 days, with details about the opponents and which league the war took place in.
Also if this is your own alliance, you will be able to tap on each war and open the alliance leaderboard for that war with detailed information of member attempts and scores. This feature will be available this Thursday with the content release.
For more details on this new League join us in our Stream this Thursday!
Titans: Hall of Fame
The great cityformers known as The Titans bounded into Raids last week and you rose to the occasion! We hope that you enjoyed the introduction of these devastating new foes as an exciting new addition to Raids!
Congratulations to the alliances below who exerted the least amount of attacks to take down the mighty Titans and have earned a spot in our Titans: Hall of Fame!
Autobots
1 - Prime Union
2 - Primus
3 - TF Cybertron Ops
4 - TF ILLICIT OPS
5 - PRIME DINOBOTS
Decepticons
1 - Scorched Earth
2 - SCORCHED MOON
3 - Darkness Within
4 - Scorched Unicron
5 - stonecutters
New G1 Power Cores
Starting later this week, the following bot duplicates have a chance to drop the newest G1 Power Cores.
Each of these G1 Power Cores will give them a classic look and unique abilities!
G1 Laser Optimus & G1 Armada Megatron:
Give these G2 Leaders an exclusive G1 look! Also increases their Special Ability damage and generates a shield which absorbs 20% of all damage for 15 seconds.
G1 Silverbolt:
Boosts Regular Attacks damage and every 20 seconds your attack stuns your target for 5 seconds.
G1 Drag Strip:
Increases Special Ability damage and on attack, makes a decoy that has 30% of your health.Triggers every 15 seconds.
G1 Skydive:
Damage Reduction from Laser Turrets and Beam Lasers. While attacking, every 15 seconds you disappear in a halo and restore 7% health.
G1 Nightbird:
Increased health. While attacking, every 15 seconds you do a retreating backflip and restore 7% health.
G1 First Aid & G1 Hook:
Increases the power of your Heal Beam and gives you a 25% Move Speed boost.
The challenge battle to get a taste of these new G1 Power Cores will be available via in-game newsfeed!
Under investigation
Here are the issues reported that we've been investigating:
- Game will sometimes crash after doing a raid attack
- Reports on Skylynx & Blitzwing not able to do combo an explosion when a target is still under the effect of Plasma Shroud
- We have seen mention of this issue but would like to get some more reports so that we can investigate.
- This issue is caused by using the last boost of a certain type in a previous battle and then immediately after that try to scout a base. The boost will still be available in the next battle that you go in and the game will crash you out at the end of that battle, invalidating your attack.
We would like to thank you for your time and patience, and if you have any issues to report, please get in touch with us here: support@transformersearthwars.com. Alternatively, you can reach out to us in game via Menu > Community > Contact Support.
Bug Fixes
The following fixes went live!
- Star Saber & Deathsaurus didn’t cause damage with their ability to Shock towers and the Shield Generator
- Bots would sometimes walk away from buildings after doing one attack.
- This issue was also fixed this Monday
- This issue was fixed on Monday with a content push

* Each Tool Box contains one of the following:
Prime League: Coming Soon!
At last the new top tier war league - Prime League - will go live this Thursday with a content release. Prime League is no joke, only reserved for our very top and most skilful alliances! If you lose one battle in Prime League you are immediately demoted back to Cybertron League.
Minimum alliance members to join Prime League is 30.
Rewards for winning a war in Prime League:
- 1,000 Premium Shards
- 30,000 Spark
- 400,000 Alloy
- 400,000 Energon
Prime League has special effects that apply to defense buildings to make the war there a bit more challenging. The effect at launch will be the following:
All defense buildings get a 5% increase to DPS
New Bots: Rook & Blot
One is a fearless Protectobot and the other is a vile Terrorcon, Rook & Blot are joining the Earth Wars at the end of the current saga!
One of the most instinctive strategists in the Autobot Earth forces, Rook's analytical/tactical mind belies his tendency to sometimes break ranks and charge headlong into the oncoming enemy forces.
Not that Rook has much to fear from incoming fire. His durabyllium armor plating can withstand punishing blasts and hold up under crushing weight, and normally at the forefront of his mind is pulling some injured party from harm's way, a feat he accomplishes by switching to his equally armored vehicle mode and utilizing his powerful hydraulic claw. It's all in a day's work for this fearless and selfless Protectobot.
Blot is a mess. No two ways about it. Emotionally and physically.
His unfortunate habit of leaking bodily fluids (oil, hydraulic and Primus knows what else) exacerbates his already low self-esteem, and so he presents a generally apathetic instinct to hygiene generally.
It doesn't help that Blot is unintelligent and slovenly, and prone to suffer breakdowns from lack of fluid. But he is very strong, loyal and agile, his piercing claws enabling Blot to climb virtually any vertical structure, making him overall useful for the Terrorcons to have around. In robot mode he's armed with a slime gun that fires a stream of odious corrosive liquid.
Their Special Abilities will be revealed in the next week’s newsletter!
Bug Fixes / Updates
The following bug fixes/updates are coming to the game soon.
- Slash & Rippersnapper could be targeted by Raid buildings during their abilities.
- 5* Perceptor and Bombshell’s ability cost increase is now 2 instead of 3, in line with the other star level.
The Slowdown Photon Silver Core now changes the beam laser colour from orange to blue (now similar to the Bronze and Gold Core).
Previously, Lugnut received the squad effect of the Warrior cores. Since he is of the Special Class, he is now solely affected by the effect of the Special Class Squad Core.
Previously, Elita-1 received the squad effect of the Warrior and Special Class cores. Since she is of the Special Class, she is now solely affected by the effect of the Special Class Squad Core.

New Bots: Rook & Blot
Ready your team for the two newest recruits to join the Earth Wars - Rook & Blot!
There will be a challenge battle available later this week for you to take our newest Protectobot and Terrorcon for a test ride!
One of the most instinctive strategists in the Autobot Earth forces, Rook's analytical/tactical mind belies his tendency to sometimes break ranks and charge headlong into the oncoming enemy forces.
Not that Rook has much to fear from incoming fire. His durabyllium armor plating can withstand punishing blasts and hold up under crushing weight, and normally at the forefront of his mind is pulling some injured party from harm's way, a feat he accomplishes by switching to his equally armored vehicle mode and utilizing his powerful hydraulic claw. It's all in a day's work for this fearless and selfless Protectobot.
Blot is a mess. No two ways about it. Emotionally and physically.
His unfortunate habit of leaking bodily fluids (oil, hydraulic and Primus knows what else) exacerbates his already low self-esteem, and so he presents a generally apathetic instinct to hygiene generally.
It doesn't help that Blot is unintelligent and slovenly, and prone to suffer breakdowns from lack of fluid. But he is very strong, loyal and agile, his piercing claws enabling Blot to climb virtually any vertical structure, making him overall useful for the Terrorcons to have around. In robot mode he's armed with a slime gun that fires a stream of odious corrosive liquid.
Explosive Decoy
Place a decoy that has 65% of your Health and attracts defences. When destroyed, it explodes dealing damage in a large area. Only one decoy can be active at a time.
Bug Fixes / Updates
The following bug fixes/updates are coming to the game soon.
- Raid Beam Laser may now retarget between each attack, making abilities such as Pipes’ Defensive Rush work on them.
- We have fixed an issue where Huffer/Lockdown dying was killing Blaster/Soundwave's minions.
The HQ equipped with the Point Defense Beam or the Omni-Flamer core could target Slash/Rippersnapper even in their stealth mode.
Slash and Rippersnapper critical hit in their ability mode was dealing less damage than announced in the ability description. We have increased the damage dealt in order to match the ability description.

This change will go live on this Thursday with the content push and will last for at least a week.

Did you know that you can download cool Transformers:Earth Wars wallpapers for your desktop and mobile from our wiki?

Bug Fixes / Updates
The following bug fixes/updates are coming to the game soon.
- Cybertron Starscream stun and damage buff
- Bombshell and Perceptor confuse ability could stack with other confuse ability (forcing defences into unexpected behaviour). This will no longer be the case this Thursday.
- Silverbolt and Thundercracker special ability damage over time ticks at a faster cadence than before bringing the damage closer to the amount in the description text.
- After the end of their ability, Slash and Rippersnapper will no longer retarget outpost bots across the map.
- The grenade reach of Hook/Ratchet/Shockwave/Wheeljack now matches the range of their special abilities. This means the bots won’t need to move for the grenade to reach the outer rim of the range circle.
- These fixes/updates will go live with a content release this Thursday
- This fix is already live

If you own all the mentioned bots you will receive instead 1,000 Combiner Spark
New Bots in Progress
At the end of the current saga, two new bots will join the Earth Wars! Let us share the creation process of Rhinox and Tarantulas with you.
Similarly to the Beast Wars characters appearing in Transformers: Earth Wars before him, Rhinox retains his animal form with accentuated robot details. In order to fit him in our lore and ease his transformation, we have decided (with Hasbro’s benediction) to turn it in grey and simplify the texture of its organic fake skin.
With only a few alterations, Tarantulas design in Transformers: Earth Wars remains really close from Beast Wars 10th Anniversary Tarantulas toy.
Under Investigation
Here is the issue reported that we've been investigating:
- The fix for Slash/Rippersnapper chasing around outpost bots has introduced an issue with their ability. They will not keep hitting the targeted building after the first time and if there are buildings next to it they will switch to them.
- We are currently working on a fix
Bug Fixes / Updates
The following fix went live earlier this week
- Prime League victory not counted in leaderboard
- We have reverted them back to being optional, this will fix the results for upcoming Prime League Wars. Meanwhile, ALL Prime League victories are being tracked and will count towards the results of the Special Event (including the wins not reflected in the Leaderboard)

New Bots: Rhinox and Tarantulas
Rhinox & Tarantulas are joining the ranks this weekend!
Let us share their ability as we’ve tweaked them since last week to make them more balanced.
Life Stealing Charge:
Rush into combat imprisoning buildings on your path for 7 seconds. The vines deal damage per second, slows down defences by 70% and heals your nearby allies by a percentage of the defence’s damage value per second.

As usual, their challenge battle will be available via in-game newsfeed prior to the weekend event.
Collections: Update
Two new teams have been added to the collections the Protectobots and Terrorcons.
The Protectobots are a team of emergency, rescue and law enforcement bots dedicated to the protection of humans and their homes.
The Terrorcons are savage beings, sometimes little more than feral creatures. True to their name, they tend to inspire terror in their enemies.
Check out the collections after the content release this Thursday!
Prime League: Update
With the launch of Prime League, one of the top feedback we had was for some kind of reward for participating alliances due to the league’s difficulty. So we have enabled the following rewards for the Alliance that loses the war.
- 10,000 Spark
- 250 Premium Shards
- 250,000 Energon
- 250,000 Alloy
The competition for most wins has finished on Wednesday 24/07/19 10:00 UTC and the result will be announced in the newsfeed and newsletter!
Bug Fixes / Updates
The following bug fixes/updates are coming to the game this Thursday with a content release.
- Skylynx/Blitzwing regular damage were of the same type warrior’s and the HQ were resistant to it.
- Silverbolt/Thundercracker The damage over time effect from the special ability could be stacked multiple times on a single target.
- This is no longer the case.
- This should not be the case since Skylynx/Blitzwing is not a warrior and this has now been fixed. This means that their melee attack will also deal less damage to walls.
- This is now fixed.
Quintus Prime Core, the Sharkticon would sometimes push it into buildings and wall when summoned from the bot in a confined space.
- In order to mitigate this issue, the Sharkticon are now summoned further away from the bot.

New Power Core: Golden Lagoon
This week, we are introducing a new Power Core that can not only dish it out, but they can definitely take it!
Golden Lagoon is filled with Electrum from the legendary Golden Lagoon, adding a temporary gold coating to your bot that reflects incoming damage.
This will be our second time limited core after the introduction of our XP Cores. Golden Lagoon core lasts 24 hours once activated, however it can be switched between other bots during this time period. It only comes in the Gold version and it only has 1 level so it cannot be levelled up.
A challenge battle will be available prior to this weekend’s event to give you an opportunity to test out some bots coated in the legendary golden armament!
To check out the Golden Lagoon Core in action, check out last week’s stream around 00:50 and Skywarp Greer’s latest video!
Learn from Veterans
Have you ever watched a defensive replay and watched one of your highest level bots provide little to no help in defending your very meticulously crafted base?
Check out this video from player and Youtuber Engineer Hoist for advice on which bots will not pull their weight when it comes to defending one of your base outposts!
Bug Fixes / Updates
The following bug fixes/updates are coming to the game soon:
- Slash/Rippersnapper’s issue with chasing bots after exiting their ability.
- We have put some additional fixes that will be released in this week’s content update.

New Bots in Progress
You may already have guessed from Simon Furman’s in-game story but the next two bots to join Transformers: Earth Wars are the long requested Punch & Counterpunch.
Our design for the game was inspired by the Transformers: Generations Power of the Primes "Special Edition" Deluxe Class toy. You can get a sneak peek below:
Punch & Counterpunch are known to be the two sides of the same coin, two personalities in the same iron shell. This double characterisation really shows in the way their head is modeled so we asked our 3D artists to pay special attention to this:
Will this split personality be reflected in their gameplay? You will find out in next week’s newsletter when we will reveal their special ability.
In the meantime, there will be a full showroom reveal in this Thursday Twitch stream.
Lights. Camera. Cast your vote!
We’re putting YOU in the director’s chair! A brand new Transformers: Earth Wars trailer is in the works and we want you to direct part of the action!
The Autobots are going up against a new Decepticon foe of EPIC proportions.
Autobot fans: choose the Autobot you think has the grit to vanquish the mystery Decepticon rival.
Decepticon fans: choose the Autobot you most want to see crushed by your new secret weapon.
Which side will end up victorious?
Cast your vote at the link below and stay tuned for the big reveal next month!
Vote Now: http://bit.ly/2kroVAJ
- Closing date will be 2019 September 8th at 5:00 PM UTC

Bug Fixes / Updates
The following bug fix is coming to the game.
- By introducing changes to mitigate Ramjet freezing in specific situation, we have introduced a bug where Goldfire was considered ‘flying’ during his rush ability.
- The fix for this will go live with a content push this Thursday
Twitch
Only a master of espionage -or counter-espionage!- can give the Autobots or Decepticons a much needed step ahead on their never ending war.
And we just know the best fit to cover such role!

Totaliser Prizes
* Each Tool Box contains one of the following rewards:
Coming Soon: Gmetal
Get ready for a brand new Power Core tier to bring your bots and defenses to the next level!
Gmetal is a new rarity of power cores entirely, more powerful than bronze, silver and even gold! Power Cores of this tier can be obtained by two means:
- Both Bot Gmetal Chip and Building Gmetal Chip will be available to buy in the shop using Prime Core shards
- There is also a small chance to obtain a random Gmetal Power Core from a duplicate 4-Star bot
Gmetal level Cores are currently available for all the cores we have at the moment except time-limited Cores (XP Core & Golden Lagoon Core) with a maximum level of 20.
Gmetal Cores will go live with a content push this Thursday.
New Building: Combiner Beacon
Protect your base with a new defensive building - the Combiner Beacon! Assign a Combiner to defend your base and choose the defensive ability you wish to be used on defense.
The Combiner Beacon is only available at one level and will be unlocked once you reach HQ level 16 in the defense section of the shop.
Steps to use a Combiner on defense:[*]Assign one ability you've unlocked in the Combiner Lab.
[*]Tap the Combiner Beacon building and assign the Combiner you'd like to use on defense.
[*]Charge the Combiner Beacon for 24 hours with 10 Ore-13 (note: you cannot reassign a Combiner while the Combiner Beacon is charged)[*]You can double the duration of the charge by spending more Ore-13
Notes:
- The Combiner will automatically appear amongst your other outpost bots and it will not affect the timing of the battle.
- The Combiner stats while on defense will be affected by the Combiner Beacon same as normal Outpost bots are weaker in the outpost. The Combiner will have 30% of his total health but 100% of its damage.
- Ore-13 Harvesting will be boosted from 1.25 per hour to 1.60 per hour.
Combiner Beacon will be available after a content push this Thursday!
New Bots: Punch & Counterpunch
Two new bots are joining the Earth Wars at the end of the current saga!
Punch walks a tightrope - balancing his own somewhat paranoid persona with that of his hair-trigger alter-ego, Counterpunch.
Though outwardly he seems calm and in control, Punch is a tightly wound ball of insecurities, doubts and fears - certain that any moment he'll be exposed as a double-agent. Punch minutely measures his words, judging when to speak (if at all) and how much to say.
Nevertheless, there's a stoic and grim determination about him to see the job through, no matter what the personal cost to Punch's immortal Spark.
So complete is Punch's masquerade, his alter-ego Counterpunch is as much a Decepticon as the most committed and zealous of Megatron's acolytes. A talented actor with chameleon-like instincts, Counterpunch is every inch the merciless and violent character he purports to be.
The deception is sometimes so complete, he actually deceives himself - believing that Counterpunch is the real him and Punch the faction-flipped creation.
It allows Punch/Counterpunch to indulge his darker instincts with impunity, and though - thus far - he has remained loyal to the Autobots, many have cause to wonder whose cause he truly serves.
Covert Operation: You get undercover for 10 seconds and throw EMP grenades at defences dealing damage over time and disabling them for some seconds.
Under Investigation
Here is the issue reported that we've been investigating:
- Superion/Devastator are displayed as a grey dot in battle.
- We identified this issue since the latest update. It's a visual issue and it's not likely to affect the gameplay. In most cases, this issue should only happen in the very first battle after the update and they should be visible from 2nd battle. This may get fixed if you visit the combiner lab.
Bug Fixes / Improvements
The following bug fixes/improvements are coming to the game soon.
- 5-Star Silverbolt/Thundercracker: The damage over time effect from the special ability could be stacked multiple times on a single target.
- This is no longer the case.
- G1 Power Cores Graphic issue
- We fixed the background color for the following G1 cores: Hot Spot, Ironhide, Ratchet and Wheeljack’s G1 Core Icon.
- Nexus Prime Core Improvement
- We have increased the % of additional damage your Combiner deals, when you deploy the equipped bot before your Combiner.
- When the bot equipped is in battle, Combiners on defense now receive additional damage.
- The % of protection against raid damage remains the same.

Bug Fixes / Improvements
The following bug fixes/improvements went live on 16/09/2019 with a content push.
- Upgrading issue for Gmetal cores
- Some Gmetal cores were unable to fuse at some level.
- To fix this issue, we temporarily changed all the combiner abilities of the Decepticon combiners so that they much the Autobot ones but this issue will not have a functionality change, it will only be a change in the ability’s name, icon and some vfx. If you are Decepticon players and have assigned a Combiner ability on defense already, you might have to reassign in some cases
- We reduced the distance that your attacking bots will chase a defensive combiner so that they will only chase the combiner when he comes near them.
