You also get a sweet Honor Points, resulting in more Silver after the battle. The number of Honor Points depends on your League, but it is near half of what you would get if you destroyed the enemy by yourself. ##### CROSS-PLATFORM SQUADS AND PRIVATE MATCHES One of the most awaited cross-platform improvements. After this update, you can finally meet people from other platforms in Battles, but you will also be able to fight side by side with them in one squad! So remember all of your friends' IDs. You can all play together now, no matter what platform you use! ##### NEW ROBOT: DAGON Dagon is the first robot in history with more than four weapon slots. Six light weapons combine for great combat power and allow you to quickly apply negative status effects to your opponents. Speaking of tactics, Dagon's ability is pretty simple. The robot has a personal Aegis shield, and when you press the ability button, the shield starts to regenerate at a faster rate. Dagon also gains additional speed while the ability lasts. ##### NEW WEAPONS: TAMER, DAMPER, TRICKSTER, DECEIVER Tamer and Damper are two rapid-firing energy gun variants which applies Rust effects, preventing the enemy from effectively restoring Durability.

All these weapons fire in unison which makes it easier to combine them into effective builds. ##### NEW DRONE: SEEKER A really perceptive drone that can improve your robot in several ways. It provides a passive bonus to shield Durability, improves weapons with 200m passive Quantum Radar and provides Counterblind and Countersuppresion capabilities. These two effects activate when enemy robots attack you. All nearby attackers within 200m will be affected by Suppression and all the snipers from 600m and more will be blinded. ##### NEW MOTHERSHIP: MUTE The ship was created by Icarus Technologies to disable the main systems of enemy robots and Titans. Its camouflage paintjob and numerous jammers help it to stalk outer space unnoticed until it strikes. **Shutdown: **Applies Blind and EMP to enemy robots in range upon activation. **NEW TURRET: LOCK DOWN BLAST CANNON** Attack Turret. After a slight delay, the turret deals devastating area damage and applies Lock-down to enemies in the target area. ##### NEW ULTIMATE EDITIONS: FUJIN, AVENGER, PUNISHER T Fujin is one of the machines instantly associated with War Robots, so we wanted to make its Ultimate version as memorable as possible. Fujin now has 1 Heavy slot, 2 Medium slots and an Aegis shield. Ultimate Fujin moves faster and recovers some Durability while its ability is active. It can even restore a portion of grey damage.
