Big events are casting their shadows ahead: the patch largely clears up instances in Arborea: the dungeon chaos of levels 65 to 70 will be cleaned up to give new players a better overview of how to reach the maximum level. Many existing dungeon will be adapted simultaneously so they are made more challenging – and lucrative – for level 70 players.

The battleground rewards will also be adjusted. For example: PvP specialists can get individualized titles of their choosing!

Dungeons and the Path to Level 70

Instead of having both a normal and a hard mode per instance, most dungeons will have only one difficulty level each as of this update. There will be different rewards depending on the difficulty.

Dungeon Overview (Level 65-70)

For dungeons below level 65, nothing changes. Starting at level 65, the group dungeons listed below will offer better loot. Solo dungeons will remain the same but with updated loot so you can also receive enchanting material for the new Exodor scout equipment.

More Loot!

Instead of running many different instances to get at a few items, you can now take on a smaller number of dungeons with bigger rewards. Level 70 boss monsters have been adjusted as part of the balancing to offer a more reasonable challenge. If you beat them, you can expect more plentiful loot than before.

Jackpot

Bonus chance of rare items: in addition to the loot possibilities above, there is a chance of finding Arborea’s Breath Box as a jackpot item in each dungeon!

If you obtain the box, you’ll find a token inside which you can exchange for rare items, for example a Superior Halidom V, a Superior Relic V or a scroll which guarantees to improve an equipment item by +1!

PvP Improvements

You can also expect changes in Arborea’s battlegrounds: with the update, players receive more gold for each respective Vanguard Initiative quest. At the same time, the prices for purchasing Arborea tokens and plates are massively reduced. They’ll cost you 90% fewer credits!

The merchant also has new items in stock for improving Exodor equipment in exchange for Bellicarium credits.

But that’s not all: there is a new reward for players in first place in the season rankings!

Individual Titles

Each player in first place in Corsairs' Stronghold and Shore Hold will receive a new trophy. You can either be sold for 250,000 Gold or collected. For 6 trophies you can request a personalised title: in this case, please contact our customer support about your desired title. After a standard review of whether the title is acceptable and not already taken, your personal title will be passed on to our developers for a future patch. It may take a few weeks or several months until the title is available. As soon as it’s ready, it will be given to you exclusively!

Other Changes

Exodor scout equipment

As hinted at in the dungeon changes, there will be a new equipment type: Exodor scout equipment!

This equipment for level 65 should allow players to start their journey to level 70 without having to resort to using different older equipment sets.

Exodor scout equipment can be obtained via the Apex quests at level 65. It can be upgraded to +10 relatively quickly using the new enchanting materials in the instances, which is approximately on par with superior equipment +0.

From then on, you should be at around level 70 and can hunt for superior equipment.

Enchantment Made Easy

Besides the new equipment there are also improvements for the enchanting of existing items – the probability of successfully enchanting an item has been massively increased between +0 and +10. Simultaneously, the probability that the item will be damaged has been lowered. An Overview:

Uncommon / rare equipment +0 to +10

Greatly increased chance of success

Item cannot be damaged

Increased cost of Dark Shard Weapon & Armor Feedstock

Uncommon / rare equipment +10 to +15

Increased chance of success

Reduced chance of downgrade and damage

Superior equipment +0 to +10
