Raid Shadow Legends 7.30 Update: Patch Notes
Here are the detailed patch notes for the RAID: Shadow Legends 7.30 update, as officially revealed by the developers in a forum post:
Accessory Ascension
Following the update, Accessories in RAID: Shadow Legends will become available for Ascension similar to Artifacts in the game. Players are able to Ascend Accessories that are at least Rank 4 and Level 12 to create a new bonus Stat for that Accessory.
The rarity of the accessory is irrelevant. The bonus Stat gain will increase with every Ascension Level, with the maximum Ascension Level equaling the Accessory’s Rank.
Players will require a separate resource to Ascend Accessories – Extract. Similar to Oil, there are 3 tiers of Extracts in the game:
- Lesser Extract
- Greater Extract
- Superior Extract
Lesser Extract are required for Ascension Levels 1 and 2, Greater Extract are required for Ascension Levels 3 and 4, and Superior Extract are required for Ascension Levels 5 and 6.
This Extract can be found in the new Dungeon Phantom Shogun’s Grove after defeating Akumori the Phantom Shogun.
Faction Wars: Sylvan Watchers
With the 7.30 update, the Sylvan Watchers will get their own Crypt in the Faction Wars, enabling players to earn more rewards as they gain more stars (Lydia the Deathsiren will still be the ultimate reward).
Champion Filter
This quality of life update included in the 7.30 patch will enable players to search Champions by their name or specific letters from the name. Players can also filter through the following factors:
- Rank
- Affinity
- Rarity
- Type
- Faction
- Aura Skill
- Ability to apply specific buffs/debuffs
- Ability to apply instant effects (healing, Turn Meter Manipulation, etc)

Balance Changes: Polymorph Blessing, Stone Skin
Small adjustments have been made to the Stone Skin buff, as Champions will now suffer additional damage from HP Burn like they do from Bombs. Here’s the updated description for the Stone Skin Buff:
“The Stone Skin buff removes all debuffs from the recipient and makes them immune to all debuffs except Bombs and HP Burn. It also decreases all damage received by 85%. Except for Bombs, which deal triple damage, and HP Burn which deals quintuple damage while the buff is active.”
For the Polymorph adjustments, Champions will have to use their Accuracy to place the Sheep debuff on the first five Levels of Awakening. On top of that, the debuff only becomes irresistible when the caster is fully Awakened.
Fans can check out more details about these changes on the official website.
New Champions
Here are the new Champions included as part of the RAID: Shadow Legends 7.30 update:
- Gnut
- Ambassador Lethelin
- Weregren Suncursed
- Ethlen The Golden
- Loneblade Riab
- Treeshield Knott
