With our revamped event system, you are able to play through the greatest moments in history with the new event system in DomiNations! Complete a wide variety of Goals to earn exciting rewards, with new Goals being added each day throughout the event.


You may have questions, some of which we can answer in advance. Have even more questions? Let us know below!

How do I use Reward Points?
Reward Points allow you to progress along an Event Reward Track as you accumulate Points. Reaching certain Milestones along the Event Reward Track will unlock rewards, such as Troop Tactics, Event Buildings, Museum Artifacts, and more.​

What Happens when I earn Event XP?
Earning Event XP increases your Event Level. Your accumulated Event XP is used to determine the rewards inside the Supply Drops found on your base during the event. It will also chart your porrise through the Event Leaderboards.​

Is it true that I can expect free Supply Drops on my base during an event?
You heard that correctly. Each day the Event is running, you will receive a Supply Drop on your Base. The higher your Event Level, the better the contents of said Supply Drop are. Be sure to check the area around your city for gifts of Gold, Food, Speed-Ups, and a variety of Troop Tactics. Let us know what gifts you receive on our social channels!​

How do I appear on the Leaderboard during an event?
Events have two Leaderboards - Global and Group.
The Global Leaderboard is a Leaderboard ranking all DomiNations players, while the Group Leaderboard is a Leaderboard ranking a group of players. (Broken out by Age.)

There are brackets for each Leaderboard for players to earn rewards. The higher you rank on either Leaderboard at the end of the Event, the better the reward you will receive.​


Are there other benefits I can expect during Events?
There is an item reward attached to each Stage. If you complete all Goals within that Stage, then you can claim the item reward!​

Do I have to purchase the Event Pass to complete in the Event?
You do not.

Purchasing an Event Pass during the Event will unlock additional Perks, such as Event Pass only Goals and only Rewards. The Event Pass also grants the Event Pass Boost - offering buffs to your Base only available to those who purchase the event Pass!​

Have you lost your minds? Is all the input from this forum in vain? More pay2win crap was the absolutely least wanted thing the community wanted

It's OK to copy CoC. It's not OK to charge 4 times the money. The new even system is cool(like any other game nowadays) but it's expensive.

P.S. Why Ash? Why can't you find someone else to narrate... like TinSoldier?

I only just saw this but I already have a few opinions about this. I want to try and be objective here, or at least give each new aspect it's own fair shake.

1: More event rewards: this is good, it makes the events last longer and give people more of a chance to earn stuff if they put in the effort

2: different event rewards: this is good, no only are they more varied but no more food and gold dumps that no one cared about

3: More ways to earn event EXP: this is Great! Before some events were almost impossible on higher levels (especially earning "total destruction" rewards) now there are different ways to win them and I hope they are varied like this one. Donating troops, small exp and good because everyone does this, earning stars gives more and is better for low level players who can win easily, upgrading artifacts gives even more exp and is better for high level players who might have a bunch of supplies lying around, like me.

4: Event pass: this.... this is bad: look I get the idea, doubling the rewards for money but considering the value of the "paid" rewards it's more like tripling the value. Also the cost is too much. If you want to earn more money from these events then a lower price is better because you'll get more people to buy it. $28 is too much, $7 would be more appropriate

So overall I Want to like this but the big EVENT PASSES flag hanging off the end spoils all of the good done here, especially the price. Either reduce the price or just double the rewards for the pass or any good intention will go to waste. Don't say it's "optional" because we know that micro-transactions are designed to force us to pay to stay in the game, just don't be so greedy and predatory and things will be better.

Obviously tweaking the current event is unfeasible but please think about this going forwards or it will just turn more people off. Or let people buy the pass with crowns so people who buy large stores or save them up over months can just buy them that way.

The new system looks interesting overall, and more engaging than the previous event system. Whether the overall return for effort, for players, ends up being equal, less, or greater than it was before remains to be seen, of course.

As far as the event pass goes, I get that the game needs to make money, but there's not a chance in hell that I'm spending $20 per event, and I'm not too excited by the idea of more opportunities for heavy spenders to pull ahead of players with tighter budgets. The pass rewards should not be stronger than the regular ones. How is it that Nexon seems to have totally missed the option used in many games of making money through the sale of cosmetic items? I'm sure many players would put some money down for interesting base decorations, but we don't even have the basic flags seen in Clash of Clans.

He probably wanted additional opportunities to let everyone know that he used to be a history teacher.

For $28 you can almost buy a new PS4 game....a game that is working and where updates actually fix the issues

People would pay to have custom colors for their units and buildings. Or even custom base environments

@tin soldier @muet you are suppose to be able to get additional experience points with levelling up artefacts however the system is not remembering/recognising that. Please look into this please.

We have lost 3 more veteran players behind this...

I know people have been giving you a hard time on disc about the update and I feel for you-must be tough to keep catching the blowback for these naked cash grabs over and over. Gonna probably get worse the later in the devcycle we go, but that presumes there will be people left to complain.

Honestly, why is community relations rep even a job at bhg, literally nothing we can communicate to you will change the course of this broken game. It’s been 4 years of people yellling about performance issues that still are horrible after three generations of devices, yelling about hacking which is still RAMPANT, yelling about p2w which this update encapsulates perfectly. The people up the chain either don’t hear you or don’t care about the playerbase other than as a revenue generation machine. This post is pointless and ironic, but hopefully some eyes will open.

Your system is just broken.
It just keeps rolling back my progress continuously.
Blessing, Hiring mercenaries, healing troops, earning quick victories, earning stars, collecting trade goods.
I have no idea why you guys could roll out such a broken system.

And it is funny that you want people to buy the event pass that keep rolling back your progress so that you can never get the rewards.


Edit: Aha, now I see that it is another bug from you guys.
In fact you dont want to have those items appeared today.
Lets hope the items I mentioned above will really count the progress when it appears.

proper beta testing should have revealed that leveling artifacts for XP does not stay.....

Other than that, I like the new event system but SOME goals seem unreasonably stupid. Like the one with the airplanes. Who wants to lose planes on purpose just to fullfill an event ?? This is totally wrong

XP doesn’t work on Musuem artifacts

That you need to purchase the event pass to get the final reward, and only letting us know this at the end of the event is like a big F U !

Dropping war tactics and other stuff in the event doesn’t work, you opened and showed it to us for a few minutes and then pulled it. Shocking what you have in store for this event.

It is great to see the new leader boards, all Space Age Default,

Everyone at Nexon are laughing at us .... right .... you just want to see what you can dish up to us and then dish up more of it and again and again.

I hate this event, there is nothing good about it, fix the game before you release more bug ridden BS to us!

You should have started with a minor event so we could get the beta testing done with less impact...

So I'm now seeing that the goals for 1940 include three ten-medal goals, plus one 30-medal goal that is locked behind the Event Pass paywall. There's no way to get the chest for 1940 without forking over the cash. Not only that, but the pay-to-win goal is far easier than any of the others, in my case to earn, count 'em, TWO quick victory stars (Enlightenment Age), and is, as noted, worth three times as many reward track medals as the other goals.

What garbage. Are the remaining boxes also going to be gated by absurdly easy pay-to-win goals? Why should I care about doing this?
