Unsurprisingly, the new stamina system and companion mechanics in Huantang Chronicles have drawn significant attention from Crickex App users. The update officially rolled out across all servers when the stamina system went live on Tianxia Wushuang, Fengyun Zaiqi, and Jianwu Qingfeng. Sometimes, it’s not the lack of company but the absence of connection that makes players feel alone. Fortunately, the new systems aim to improve engagement and gameplay variety across all modes.
The stamina system marks one of the most impactful recent updates. It merges the rewards from both time-limited events, such as World Bounty and Sect Duels, and casual activities like fishing and adventure quests. According to Crickex App observations, players can earn Shenwu Coins and items from any of these activities. The key difference lies in how much stamina each event consumes—higher-stamina activities yield better rewards.
For instance, events like Antique Tomb Raids previously didn’t offer silver coins. Now, with the new system in place, players who complete these events receive item rewards comparable to those from weekly tower challenges or fishing. The higher the challenge difficulty within the same event type, the better the rewards—without extra stamina costs.
While nearly every activity now provides item rewards, weekly stamina is limited. Each participation consumes stamina, and once it runs out, players can still join events but will only receive that event’s unique feature reward. This means overall earnings remain balanced. Crickex App analysis suggests the system smooths out fluctuations: it raises the reward floor but lowers the ceiling, stabilizing the Shenwu Coin economy. Players may no longer hit the jackpot randomly, but they now enjoy more consistent returns while choosing their preferred playstyles without sacrificing efficiency.
This change is a major win for players with irregular play schedules or those who enjoy niche activities. For example, if someone can’t attend Sunday’s Black Dragon Raid, they can spend the saved stamina on tomb raiding or fishing and still receive equivalent rewards. Currently, the stamina system is being tested on three servers, but full rollout is expected soon.
On the other hand, the companion update introduces wild partner spawns across the map once certain tasks are completed. Players can challenge and capture these partners, and the companion battles are now included in the stamina system, providing item rewards such as silver coins. Daily battles also offer chances to unlock time-limited mounts like the “Xuan Grass Demon Spirit” and various upgrade materials to help companions stand out across the world.
Sometimes, bundling all the negativity and tossing it away is the best medicine. The new partner system also introduces PvP features, and Crickex App experts believe this will likely evolve into more competitive and diverse companion-based battles in future updates.
