Consolation of Draconis

Last updated: Exalt Version 2.0.2.0 (Aug 2021)
Consolation Room of Draconis

Consolation of Draconis was a dungeon available between Build 11.1.0 (2013/02/08) and Build 12.0.0 (2013/03/27). It was created as compensation for those who bought keys to the Lair of Draconis when it was accidentally released, and later patched out.

In Exalt Version 1.4.0.0 (Mar 2021), this dungeon was temporarily reintroduced as part of the April Fools ARG. It could only be encountered by finding Craig in Sprite World. Upon initiating Craig’s dialogue by calling out his name when finding him, followed by reminding him about “numbers”, Craig would run a series of dialogue before spawning the Consolation of Draconis.

A recording of the dungeon in Exalt can be seen here.

The Realm Eye says:
While Oryx was preparing the Lair of Draconis, he accidentally let keys to the dungeon fall into the hands of adventurers far earlier than he had planned.
He cursed the keys in a frantic attempt to keep his project concealed, causing the portals to lead to a decoy room instead.
Nobody was fooled.

Key

Notes

The Draconis Key was accidentally sold in the item shop in Build 11.0.0, but was replaced by the Consolation Key upon the release of Build 11.1.0. The developers’ message was as follows:

“Our Developers are now pushing a hotfix, that will replace any Lair of Draconis Keys with the newly coined Consolation of Draconis keys. Consolation of Draconis Keys will open a portal to a small room where you can find a random Stat Potion. Thank you all for your patience.”

Upon the release of Build 12.0.0, all Consolation Keys were replaced with Old Firecrackers.

For April Fools of 2021, the dungeon was brought back as part of the puzzle for accessing Chess. At the same time, its portal was changed to a “deactivated” version of the Lair of Draconis portal.
