Dear Commanders
We plan to perform a patch update on the server at 11:00(UTC+8) on 26 January. The estimated update time is 8 hours.

Update contents:
I. New metal maidens:
1. VK 36.01, obtainable through the Glutton on a Palm event.
2. 300 Light Tank, obtainable through:
- Feeding Epsilon in the Glutton on a Palm event (very low chance).
- Exchange for Crystal Shells.
3. B1 Draco, obtainable through R&D.
4. M110A2 CBS, obtainable through purchasing the Special Elite Pack in Winter Limited Promotion. (Please note that after this update, Autumn Limited Packs will no longer be available.)

II. Glutton on a Palm event
Portia has asked Commander to collect various equipment (normal S1 and S2, advanced S1, as well as N2 to N4 blueprints) and certain collectibles for feeding to Epsilon in order to gain a deeper understanding of how Farers' bodies work and to refine her existing databases.
Epsilon will rate the items you feed her differently, and you will receive corresponding rewards.
After each feeding, Epsilon's satisfaction level will increase depending on how much she liked the item she ate.
Once the satisfaction level has hit a certain threshold, you can collect the first reward for this event.
This time, the reward is VK 36.01.
Epsilon's maximum satisfaction will remain at 1,000, but she will no longer suffer from indigestion. We hope this change will significantly alleviate the difficulty of the event.
All the changes made to the event are as follows:
1. The indigestion mechanic has been removed, so Epsilon can be fed continuously.
2. An auto-feeding system has been added, which allows Epsilon to be fed 50 times in one go. You can still use this system even if the number of equipment or collectibles being used for feeding is lower than 50, the auto-feeding will continue until the item runs out.
3. There is a chance to obtain Crystal Shells each time Epsilon is fed. The probability and number of items obtained depend on the item that's being used.
4. If Epsilon is fed Architecture Blueprints, aside from getting high satisfaction, she will also drop a single guaranteed piece of Incomplete Intelligence. However, you will not get any other items.
Tap on the Crystal Shells in the Depot to open the Exchange Shop, which contains the following:
1. Limited edition badges and wallpapers from previous events
2. Limited edition resource packs
3. A metal maiden: 300 Light Tank
300 Light Tank can be obtained with a very low chance directly from feeding Epsilon.
Crystal Shells can be bought for vouchers in the event store.
Please note that we recommend newbie commanders to refrain from feeding too much equipment to Epsilon as that might have an adverse effect on their progression. If you are completely sure that you need a large number of Crystal Shells, exchanging with vouchers bought for Gold may be a better method. The most efficient way of gaining Gold is the purchase of M-Supply.

III. Intelligence Deciphering Event
During the event, a special blasting pool will be available for the Intelligence Deciphering event.
The special Intelligence Deciphering blasting pool has a higher chance to drop advanced equipment.
Please note that this Intelligence Deciphering event does not have a specific reward like it used to, and is now simply a way to efficiently obtain advanced equipment.
The Intelligence Deciphering blasting pool uses Incomplete Intelligence, which can be obtained through the following methods:
1. Guaranteed obtaining when feeding Epsilon with Architecture Blueprints in the Glutton on a Palm event.
2. The exchange for Club Vouchers in the event store.
3. The exchange for Tanghulu in the event store, for a limited number of times.
4. The exchange for Crystal Shells in the event store, for a limited number of times.
5. The exchange for G-SiSe in the event store, for a limited number of times.
