Version 1.10.0 M5 Released

M5 completes the Beastbound Arena development arc and prepares Version 1.10.0 for release-candidate testing.

Apex Circuit

A new five-round endgame circuit opens after reaching Arena Rating 1660 and completing three Apex Hunt victories.

• Rounds 1–4 feature Nemesis formations.
• Round 5 is a final Apex formation.
• Six modifiers rotate daily and reward different roles, elements, hybrids and awakened monsters.
• Every battle locks the team, enemy formation, modifier, chance, seed and outcome when started.
• Victories grant Primal Essence; a full clear also grants an Apex Seal.
• A loss resets the active circuit run but never removes a monster.

Apex Awakening

Eight selected species receive permanent Apex forms:

• Crownfire Imp
• Elderbark Golem
• Whiteout Alpha
• Tempest Matriarch
• Mire Oracle
• Event Horizon Eye
• Magma-Throne Troll
• Dawncoil Seraph

Awakening requires Level 50, five stars, ten Monster Arena victories, three species-specific Nemesis kills, three Apex Seals and 150 Primal Essence. An awakened monster gains a unique fifth ability and a bounded permanent power bonus.

Hardening

• Menagerie rosters are paginated at 24 monsters per page.
• Training, Arena, Apex Circuit and Fusion use shared activity locks.
• Circuit operations and Awakening resources are normalized and bounded.
• Exactly-once report claiming is protected with persistent operation IDs.
• Large malformed-state fuzzing and deterministic probability audits were added.
• English, German, responsive mobile layouts and Reduced Motion remain supported.
