Viridian Rise Changes

  • The random rewards for the Viridian Rise have been reworked and most of the consumable rewards have been removed.

Gauntlet

  • A brand new Colosseum to challenge players and top end characters has been added.

Enlightenment

  • Enlightenment has been added to the game. A system designed for our most dedicated players, Enlightenment allows a character who has reached the pinnacle of levels and Luminance to let it all go and start over. The process of Enlightenment is certainly not for the faint of heart, but enlightenment will provide an avenue for players to prove that they are some of the most hardcore players of the game.
    • An enlightened character proves themselves by sacrificing all experience, levels, Luminance, and Luminance augmentations.
    • The character starts fresh, gaining a title, an extra point in all trained and specialized skills, and two extra Vitality points. ~ Enlightened characters retain their normal augmentations. They no longer have to spend experience points on those augmentations as they level.

Paragon Weapons

  • A weapon upgrade system that creates Paragon Weapons has been added to the game. Characters can slowly enhance their favorite weapons by forging them into Paragon weapons. The process that will send characters all over Dereth to prove themselves by completing heroic tasks and gaining Luminance. Though the process is involved, Paragon weapons gain levels and empower the user with substantial benefits. The process can enhance melee weapons, missile weapons or casters. (This process will work on most quest and loot weapons that do not already have set spells.)

Spell Teachers

  • Players can now learn level 1-7 spells directly from the Professors of Magic.
  1. Select the Professor .. from the chat button .. select to talk to the NPC.
  2. Then in the chat, type 'level one' or 'level 1' (or the level of choice) and Enter.
  3. A dialogue will open, telling you the cost.
  4. Click on Yes to receive. The Pyreal Notes will be automatically withdrawn from your toon for payment. Your toon will automatically learn the spells (and not receive scrolls to learn by).
