7 New Bosses, Mercurial Set & Storage Upgrade: Inside RAID’s Huge 11.00.0 Patch

🌲 A New Kind of Dungeon: Welcome to Grim Forest

Update 11.00.0 isn’t “just another patch” for RAID: Shadow Legends — it’s a full-on endgame shake-up.

At the center is Grim Forest, a monthly roguelite mode that turns progression into a high-stakes, fog-covered board where every tile might be loot… or a wipe.

• Unlocks at Level 55

• Runs on a monthly rotation, with a new layout every cycle

• Features Normal and Hard versions, each with its own path and rewards

Instead of your usual hand-picked team, Grim Forest forces you to build:

• Normal: 2 decks of 10 champions

• Hard: 2 decks of 20 champions

Each battle pulls a random squad from your decks. No micro-swapping between fights. No “just bring the meta 5 and win.” You’re playing with whatever the Forest decides to deal you.

You also have a shared daily stamina called Distorted Energy, so every move on the map is a decision: fight, risk, or reroute?

🗺️ Fog, Tiles, Altars & Greedy Chests

As you push through the Gloom Lands, the fog clears to reveal:

• Regular battles & minibosses

• Mythical-tier enemies guarding premium rewards

• “Treasure” tiles that might actually be a Mimic

• Grim Chests & Curio Chests packed with loot

• Special Altars that define your run:

  • Curio Altars – add slots for Curios, powerful passive buffs that shape your build for that run

  • Aid Altars – let you bring in an extra champion before a fight

  • Redraw Altars – give you more re-rolls on your randomly selected team

As you move, you earn Grim Crowns and other Forest currencies that slowly crack open the path to the final boss of the rotation.

Think: Doom Tower meets roguelite board game, with the stakes cranked way up.

💎 Rewards: Mercurial Set, New Relics & Mythical Anaxia

Grim Forest isn’t just pain — it’s profit.

🧩 Mercurial Gear Set

The new Mercurial Set is a Support player’s dream, and Grim Forest is the only place to get it. It can roll up to:

• +15% HP

• +40 RES

• +32% SPD

• 3 stacks of Total Guard — each stack fully blocks one incoming hit and all attached effects

Total Guard means a support wrapped in Mercurial can literally shrug off lethal hits and their debuffs. It’s insanely strong in late-game PvE and PvP.

🔮 New Currencies & 8 Relics

While grinding the Forest, you’ll also pick up:

• New mats like Bloodbriars, Gemstones, Basalt, Soulstones, Cursed Remnants, and various Grim coins

• 8 brand-new Relics, crafted from Bloodbriars, that provide permanent, account-wide power spikes

• A Grim Forest avatar frame to show you’ve actually survived this place

🐍 Mythical Champion: Anaxia the Reborn

Grim Forest is also your exclusive path to Anaxia the Reborn, a new Mythical Lizardmen champion.

• She swaps between a defensive sustain form and a high-damage alternate form

• Her design leans into long fights and grim mechanics — exactly the kind of kit that thrives in the Forest and other hard content

If you want her, you have to learn Grim Forest. There’s no shortcut.

🦇 Seven New Bosses That Don’t Care About Your Old Cheese

Grim Forest brings seven new bosses, each built to punish lazy teams and auto-pilot play.

The Core Five

🔥 Tauraze the Bestial Flame
HP Burn is his language. Don’t manage burns? You’ll get cooked alive.

• Punishes teams that fail to cleanse or control HP Burns

• Scales his pressure off the burns you allow to stay up

❄ Draugnell the Eternal Gatherer
The Freeze control freak.

• Constantly Freezes attackers

• Halves Speed and reflects damage unless he’s under HP Burn

• Designed to stall and grind out careless teams

💉 Maximoz the Weeping Blade
The poison tyrant.

• Layers Poison, Poison Sensitivity, and Weaken

• Extends debuffs and ramps them over time

• Increases your cooldowns and punishes weak hits by feeding his Turn Meter

🌺 Isheth the Crimson Siren
Queen of buffs and healing loops.

• Extends her own buffs and spams Continuous Heals

• Converts those stacked buffs and heals into massive sustain and damage

• Strips your buffs, applies Block Passive Skills, and punishes teams that rely on long buff chains

🌿 Leshun the Entangled One
The most terrifying mechanic of all: Entangle.

• Entangle has no duration — it stays until the fight ends

• It:

  • Strips all buffs

  • Prevents new buffs

  • Shuts down passive Turn Meter gains

• It cannot be cleansed, extended, or reduced

Leshun then steals your stats, drains your Turn Meter, and abuses Entangled targets. He’s built to make your usual “buff and blast” playstyle completely non-functional.

The Ambush Duo: Mimic & Phrygius

These two don’t care if you’re “ready.” They show up when they want.

🗝️ Mimic
Looks like a reward. Plays like a raid wipe.

• Punishes buff-heavy teams

• Summons Mini-Mimic based on your highest Crit Damage champ

• Mini-Mimic can Ingest a champion — temporarily removing them from the fight

• The more buffs you stack, the more Mimic heals, cycles, and turns your strength against you

💰 Phrygius the Trovemaster
The vault guardian.

• Stacks Goldplated layers — think damage-absorbing shields

• When you break a layer, your HP-based damage is reflected back at you

• Steals buffs, drains Turn Meter, and gets faster over time

• Over-nuking him with AoE is the fastest way to kill yourself

These bosses are explicitly anti-cheese. They’re built to force new comps, new ideas, and genuine mechanics play.

❄ Winter Rework: Sir Nicholas & Gliseah Soulguide Get Their Shine Back

It wouldn’t be a winter patch without some Christmas legends getting a glow-up.

🛡 Sir Nicholas – From Relic to Raid Anchor

Sir Nick has been rebuilt into a true protector / damage hybrid, especially when paired with Lady Noelle:

• A1 now has more Freeze chance, and with Noelle on the team it becomes a guaranteed, unresistable Freeze.

• A2 hits harder, grants Strengthen + Shield to allies, and gains ignore DEF when he fights alongside Noelle.

• His passive and goodwill mechanics now:

  • Reduce how much ignore DEF enemies get against shielded allies

  • Give him Counterattack and a more reliable tank presence when guarding Lady Noelle

End result? He’s finally a top-tier Arena and PvE guardian, not just a nostalgia trophy.

🧊 Gliseah Soulguide – True Frost Monarch

Gliseah is now exactly what she looks like: a freeze-focused control monster.

• A1:

  • Freeze chance up to 50%

  • Can now spread all debuffs from a target, not just one

• A2:

  • Steals every buff from the target before dropping Weaken

• A3:

  • Freeze chance cranked to 75%

  • Fills allies’ Turn Meter by 15% + 5% per Freeze landed, letting her swing fights in a single cast

• Passive:

  • Her Freezes become unresistable and unblockable

  • Every time enemies try to put her skills on cooldown, she gets a once-per-turn instant turn, punishing cooldown control and letting her respond immediately

In other words: if your team doesn’t respect Gliseah, you don’t get to play.

🧰 QoL: Bigger Bags, Smarter Teams

Update 11.00.0 also drops a few massive quality-of-life wins:

• Gear Storage Explosion

  • Artifact and Accessory storage can now hit 2,000 slots each. Hoarders, rejoice.

• Team Setup & Pre-Battle UI

  • New filters and name search in Team Setup make it far easier to find specific champions.

  • You can now open pre-battle setup even if you don’t have the energy/resources to run, so you can tweak AI and teams in advance.

• New Relics & Avatar Frame

  • Craft 8 new Relics with Bloodbriars from Grim Forest for permanent account power-ups.

  • Flex with a Grim Forest avatar frame once you’ve carved your way through the trees.

🧠 Quick Tips for Surviving Grim Forest

• Deep Roster > One OP Team
  You need wide bench strength. Spread your gear and masteries around instead of only juicing 5 champs to the moon.

• Don’t Overbuff vs Mimic & Isheth
  Buffs are a resource and a risk. Trim your buff spam or the bosses will weaponize it.

• Control Your Damage vs Phrygius
  Learn to pace your damage and manage Goldplated layers. Overkill can literally kill your team.

• Lean Into Mercurial
  Slap Mercurial on your key supports. Total Guard stacks can hard-carry you through learning runs and savage boss mechanics.

• Pull Nick & Gliseah Out of Storage
  If you own them, now is the perfect time to rebuild Sir Nicholas and Gliseah for Arena, Hydra, and Grim Forest control comps.

Whether you’re hungry to unlock the Astral Warden, ready to dominate the Festival of Teleria, or just looking to shake up your team before the next legendary boss arrives, now’s the perfect time to jump in.
