Ever wanted to build your own airship? Black Skylands lets you realize that dream somehow by giving you the power to build and develop an airship. Create an impregnable flying fortress that you can use to explore and capture territories. This game also combines aerial and ground combat, with dozens of weapons at your disposal.
Anyway, Black Skylands received the Raids Update recently, and as the name of the patch implies, it allows you to go on raids and defeat bosses. Raids will have you complete a series of missions on the air first, followed by the ground stage where you’ll face various missions and enemies. Raids to the Swarm will be available to you after completing the “Hunting the Eater” quest.
At the start of each raid, you can choose up to four challenges. The more challenges you have enabled, the more points you will get at the end. Some of the challenges include playing a raid without using ship abilities or without dodging.
Moreover, each task you complete successfully will reward you with resources useful for creating special weapons, such as the Swarm Gun, Swarm Flare Gun, Swarm Acid Flame Gun, and Swarm Rifle.
The other changes introduced in the Raids Update can be found below:
- Lowered the difficulty of enemies in the Hungry Gardens location (the resources are the same as before)
