Returning Player Needs a Catch Up (hi)
Iâm genuinely confused as to why you felt the need to point this out, it seems obvious already to everyone whoâs ever encountered arexrew and absolutely pointless to anyone who hasnât.
anywayâŚ
hi arexrew. I havenât been paying much attention either tbh, only major thing I remember seeing was that decaâs added even more STâs. a huntress set, a warrior set, and a priest set. all of which were released as P2W as possible as you might expect, though I believe theyâve actually started dropping from enemies in-game now. dunno where though.
Thought it was funny.
To answer the question, thereâs 3 new ST sets, a bunch of dungeons got minor tweaks and reworks, new Christmas Gear set ring, and Agents of Oryx items which are essentially âconsolation prizesâ from event chests.
Additionally, thereâs a new gameplay mode every now and then called âRiftsâ; basically time limted PPE mode where you can win some stuff for your regular account. Thatâs about it.
Ontop of
There are mostly some QOL changes. Treasure rooms have been added to UDLs, WoodLabs, Ddocks, and Davy Jones Locker, so its not a ruse if people call them out.
The important parts of the latest updates;
- Mountain Temple enemies were slightly nerfed: armors no longer respawn indefinitely, Monks inflict only Petrify for a second or so, Archers have reduced projectile speed and longer cooldown on their Paralyze arrow
- Candyland trolling can now only be done by preventing minion spawns. Bosses will spawn in the boss room with some seconds of invulnerability without attacking. Killing each boss once will spawn a Cupcake enemy in the spawn room, which drops a Realm Portal when defeated (you can of course still continue killing bosses)
- There are virtually no Test Chests anymore
- Ruthven now only transitions whenever all coffins are dead, and he has a ârageâ phase of sorts
- The Cemetery has one extra area; all bosses can drop up to two pots; all enemies necessary for progression are stasis immune; Skuld is quite a bit harder; the Grave Caretaker is more like Avalon now.
- Quests are now divided in 4 categories: Beginner, Standard, Mighty, Epic. Mighty replaces the old Epic, and Epic QChests are all unique: 3 for LH (Marble/Void/Cult), and 1 for Crystal Cavern, Shatters, Nest.
- All class puppets appear in the Theatre, and the Puppet Master has a quest marker now
- Davy Jones is immune to stun; the Lanterns (previously âLanturnsâ) have some invulnerability after being un-lit
- LoD gives 4 fame per dragon, and 8 from Ivory
- Marble Defender pierces armor now
- The Stone Guardians deal slightly more damage and have piercing, Janus has a cool new sprite + a better rage phase, Suits of Armor (the inanimate ones) give 200 exp
- Shaitan drops more loot (life!) and no longer has 40% HP scaling
Janus had a resprite and now it has a different rage phase, standing still and spamming shots
Wat? Thatâs much better then. Only getting an attack pot seemed like one of the worst risk reward dungeons in game.
Whatâs better?
Well I stopped playing the game which increased everyoneâs quality of life.
Oh yeah DECA did a couple things too I guess.
This doesnât really matter because there are so many priests anyway but stone guardians got buffed
I genuinely do not understand why you felt the need to point that out; humor is subjective.
might have something to do with calling out your old arch nemesis publicly and without any contextual clues that might indicate youâre not just pouncing on him to rip him to shreds because of how you two donât like each other, instead of actually answering his question to begin with (this is #academy:questions-answers right?).
I am genuinely confused as to why you felt the need to point that out; it seems obvious to those who are already aware of those unfortunate circumstances, and absolutely pointless to those who are not.

Sorry for the bad joke, arexrew.
