Changes
- New quest: The Order of the Lion Quest, which takes places in Bounac, and isle situated between Thais and Meriana. The quest is centered on the Order of the Lion creatures such as the Lion Knight and its bosses may drop new mid-level (level 220 to 270) items. The quest is the final one on the trilogy of the Ancient Orders of King Xenom. The difficulty range of this place is similar to that of the Falcons.
- Expansion of the Grimvale Quest with addition of the An Ancient Feud mission. The story takes place in new areas in Darashia related to the werecurse with new were-creatures such as Werehyaenas and Werelions. The new monsters are a bit stronger than werebears and wereboars.
- New main questline, the Soul War Quest. Go deeper into Zarganash to find five new areas meant for high level players (over level 1000). Beating the final boss will be especially rewarding, since new best-in-slot items will be introduced.
- Each of the hunting grounds has its own mechanics and requires you to overcome challenges specific to the area before you can face the boss of that hunting ground.
- Some of the new monsters have special tricks up their sleeve. The monsters in each hunting ground attack with two kinds of elements:
- Claustrophobic Inferno: Monsters attack with death and fire.
- Rotten Wasteland: Monsters attack with earth and holy.
- Ebb and Flow: Monsters attack with ice and earth.
- Furious Crater: Monsters attack with energy and holy.
- Mirrored Nightmare: Monsters attack with holy and ice.
- There will be a new Bestiary difficulty level called "challenging". Details stages of challenging entries will be revealed once a player kills 200, 2000 and 5000 monsters respectively of its kind. Completing the entry grants 100 charm points for every ordinary (not very rare) challenging monster.
- The following three new Charms will be implemented:
- Divine Wrath: Offensive charm. Triggers on a creature with a certain chance and deals 5% of its initial hit points as Holy Damage once.
- Vampiric Embrace: Passive charm. The current Life Leech amount of a player will be increased by 4%. This goes only into effect if life leech is already active through equipped items.
- Void's Call: Passive charm. The current Mana Leech amount of a player will be increased by 2%. This goes only into effect if mana leech is already active through equipped items.
- The following three Charms will be changed:
- Gut: Gutting the creature now yields 20% more creature products instead of only 10%.
- Scavenge: Now enhances your chances to successfully skin/dust a skinnable/dustable creature by 25% instead of only 10%.
- Bless: Blesses you and reduces skill and experience loss by 10% instead of only 3% when killed by the chosen creature.
- Highscore Extension:
- The highscore section on the official website will have a filter option which will make it able to compare players across all game worlds.
- The stats will be updated hourly.
- New categories:
- Charm Points: This category will show how many points a player has earned so far, no matter whether the charm points have been spent or not.
- Goshnar's Taint: New category for the new Zarganash bosses. Killing one of the five normal bosses yields one point, slaying the final boss results in ten points given.
- It will be possible to check the Highscores via the client. Your character will be highlighted in the ranking.
- There will be new Character Titles related to the new highscore categories.
- It will be possible to import and export Client Settings from now on.
- Team Finder: New feature to find and assemble teams for hunts and quests.
- In the Manage Loot Containers you can now see what items you have declared Accepted Loot and which ones are Skipped Loot. You can also easily remove items from that list again and jump directly to the item's entry in the Cyclopedia.
