Release History 2020 (Rev. 20)

Patch 32.4.1 & Upcoming Events!

January 8

Hello Realmers,

The festivities are over and it’s time to get back in action! New year means that Realm Exalt is closer and with this patch we started to apply several tweaks and changes in preparation for that. You can also look forward to some new items that were added. Also, we will be running a Machine event for a few days, so don’t miss it!

See you in the Realm!

  • Encounters’ names and looks are back to normal
  • Ice Drops were removed from the Crystal Prisoner, Shatters, Ocean Trench & Snake Pit
  • Presents were removed from the Godlands Dungeons
  • T12 Weapons, Broken Ornaments and Bell Tokens will no longer drop. The latter two will be removed with the next update on January 15th!

Dungeons Polish

To help tidy things up in preparation for Unity and check off a bunch of tasks that have spent too long waiting deep in the priority list, we’ve taken some extra time to fine tune quite a few dungeons. These changes are a mix of balancing, bug fixes, quality of life tweaks, and even a few pieces of brand new content to spice up familiar challenges. There a lot to dig into (over 120!), so here’s an overview.

Miscellaneous

• Changed the default sprites for the portal of cowardice and realm portal to not be Pirate Cave copies. Realm portals are now a mini version of the 16x16 realm portal found in the Nexus, and cowardice portals are a darker version of it, to mesh better with most environments compared to light brown.
• Tinctures and effusions now exist for all stat types. The four new ones can be found as drops from the four Court of Oryx dungeons (vitality tinctures and effusions from Shaitan, wisdom from Encore, speed from Reef, and attack from Xolotl). Note that speed effusions can only be used in the realm.
• Effusions now drop in purple bags.
• Elixir sprites now visibly drain as their usage quantity decreases.

Pirate Cave

• The drop rate of Pirate Rum has been significantly increased for both Dreadstump and dungeon mobs.
• Beach Pirates and Piratesses can now drop Pirate Caves (shocking, we know).

The Hive

• Damage intensity has been reduced across the board, and the Queen Bee has been rebalanced to throw maggot sacs less frequently and remain vulnerable more often.
• The dungeon has been made more accessible by making it a guaranteed drop from Warrior Bees and making Warrior Bees themselves slightly more common. Additionally, Wasp Queens now have a chance to drop the dungeon as well.

Magic Woods

• The dungeon now drops more commonly from Ent Ancients.
• Level design has been improved by adjusting old room types and doubling the total amount of room maps for greater variety.
• Instead of just slowing, the water throughout the dungeon now inflicts Healing and Hallucinating to give the dungeon a stronger mechanical identity.
• All monster damage values have been buffed by approximately x1.5 to accommodate for the now plentiful Healing effect provided by the water.

Undead Lair

• A new, traditional treasure room miniboss, the Lair Spectral Skeleton, has been added to map the dungeon’s sprawling map more worthwhile to explore.
• Improved Septavius’s internal attack transitions to keep the fight progressively smoothly at low health.
• Fixed the stacked shots fired by slime enemies upon splitting.
• The minimap is now centered when zoomed out.

Abyss of Demons

• Slightly increased the chance of treasure room spawning.
• Malphas Protectors now despawn upon the boss’s death.
• The minimap is now centered when zoomed out.

Manor of the Immortals

• Lord Ruthven’s fight has been revised. His bat phase now progresses when all four spawned coffins are destroyed (which now have more HP), rather than a fixed timer. This adds more player agency to the fight and should make it go faster overall for capable characters. He also has a minor rage phase attack now.
• Treasure room coffins are now capable of dropping attack potions and the Tome of Purification, giving them greater value.
• Change visibility from LineOfSight to Path to reduce frustration (this effectively means that you don’t need to go complete around a wall to uncover the black tiles, and enemies do not disappear from view if a direct line of sight is obscured.
• Revised and added the previously unused Helmet Head enemy, which spawns from defeated Armored Guards.
• “RockBomb” now has a proper display name for death messages.

Toxic Sewers

• Misplaced sewage tiles have been fixed, and you should no longer get sickened at certain spots despite being on safe tiles.
• The Alligator sprite now faces the correct direction.
• New environmental art has been added, including dirty slab tiles and broken grates.

Puppet Master’s Theatre

• Added a quest marker to the Puppet Master.
• Added all missing puppet enemies (necromancer, huntress, ninja, and samurai).
• Puppet enemy sizes are now consistent.
• All 15 class puppet enemies are now able to spawn throughout the dungeon evenly, including those previously restricted like the Puppet Assassin.
• Fixed Puppet Bombs displaying incorrectly on minimap.
• Puppet Bombs no longer block player projectiles.
• Puppet Priests spawned by the Puppet Master despawn upon his death.
• The Oryx Puppet fight has been improved and adjusted, preventing instakill opportunities and ensuring his phases progress more reliably.
• The curtain sprite in the boss room has been improved.

Cursed Library

• All Corruption Phantom Wisps now scale their HP as intended.
• Fixed numerous typos throughout the Realm Eye.
• Added a new Realm Eye prompt for the Lair Spectral Skeleton treasure room from the Undead Lair.

Haunted Cemetery

• The Pumpkin King is now immune to paralyze.
• Added the intended projectile sprite to the Pumpkin King’s Jack-o’-lantern minions (as well as the Pumpkin Master’s missiles).
• All monsters required to progress to the next wave are now immune to stasis.

Mad Lab

• Dr. Terrible can no longer be damaged before activating.

Candyland Hunting Grounds

• Increased the likelihood of a major monster kill initiating a boss to spawn.
• Bosses now spawn even if a player is sitting in the room to minimize trolling. The bosses do not attack immediately and remain invulnerable for several seconds first.
• The dungeon can now be completed via a realm portal. After at least one of every boss type has been spawned and defeated, a new miniboss (the Cupcake) will appear in the starting room. Defeating it gives you an extra high chance at loot and creates a realm portal upon defeat. The dungeon is still infinite, however, and you may continue to farm spawns endlessly.
• Decorative jelly bean objects have been added throughout the map.

Cave of a Thousand Treasures

• Fixed boss typos.
• Made the Treasure Thief enemy more common.
• Made the dungeon slightly more common from Djinns.
• Added more fitting damage sounds to most monsters.

Davy Jones’s Locker

• The swaying seaweed animation on the portal now starts immediately, rather than remaining static for a second.
• Davy Jones has been buffed with piercing projectiles and slightly extended phases.
• Corrected the spelling of Lanturn -> Lantern.
• The minimap will no longer display red dots where there are no active enemies.
• Added a treasure room that has a chance to exist behind any locked room that doesn’t also hold a required key.

Mountain Temple

• Rebalanced many of the dungeon’s mobs. The most notable changes include the paralyze arrows from Corrupted Bowmen moving much more slowly and having a longer cooldown between shots, Corrupted Armor no longer infinitely respawning its minions, and Corrupted Monks becoming much less durable while inflicting a very short Petrify effect, rather than Slowed and Darkness.
• Revised some of Daichi’s dialogue.
• Added back Daichi’s original extended death animation.
• Red dot no longer appears on the minimap in the center of the Jade and Garnet Statue setpiece.
• Daichi’s secret chest now has damage sounds.
• Daichi’s chest has been made stasis immune.
• The wall in Daichi’s boss room that opens to the treasure room now has a properly angled sprite.

Lair of Draconis

• Added HP scaling to Crimson Soul Shards.
• Fixed minor typo in the Ivory Wyvern’s opening dialogue.
• Improved XP distribution (4 fame from dragons, 8 from Ivory).

Deadwater Docks

• Added a unique portal sprite.
• The Mysterious Crystal is now stasis immune.
• Crystal Prisoner Steeds now despawn upon the Crystal Prisoner’s death.
• The Crystal Prisoner now gives 2.5 fame.
• Jon Bilgewater’s fight has been touched up to ensure he progresses through more phases.
• Fixed a spawning issue that sent players directly inside the treasure room.

Woodland Labyrinth

• Added a unique portal sprite.

The Crawling Depths

• Added a unique portal sprite.

Ice Cave

• Added a new ice barrier sprite for Esben during his rage phase.
• Added a small delay to missable dialogue at the start of the Ice Cave and Inner Sanctum.
• Added damage sounds for the yetis.

Ocean Trench

• Destructible coral barriers now appear in the hallways between rooms, occasionally impeding progress and needing to be destroyed (like the obstacles in the Parasite Chambers, but less dense).
• Deep Sea Beasts now despawn upon Thessal’s death.

Tomb of the Ancients

• Moved the Book of Geb drop to Sarcophagi to incentivize participation.

The Shatters

• Removed loot chests.

Abandoned Mineshaft

• Added intended dialogue to Crystal Entity.
• Improved event dialogue.
• Made damage sounds more consistent and fitting throughout the dungeon.
• Added new sprites for the Crystal Entity bosses.
• Ensured the Crystallized Scorpion has at least one opportunity to use one of its special attacks.
• Made XP from Crystal Entity summons consistent.
• Added the Magic Mushroom as a rare drop to large Fungal Cavern monsters.

Lost Halls

• Added damage sounds to Evil Spirits.
• Made hazard and bonus rooms slightly more common compared to vanilla rooms.
• Reduced the main branch length (12 -> 10).
• Added armor piercing to the Marble Defender’s attacks.
• Added a quest marker for the cultist group.

Oryx’s Castle

• Made Suits of Armor grant a meaningful amount of XP (200 each, or 1/10th of 1 fame each).
• Created new sprites and animations for Janus the Doorwarden and his keys (as well as the Janus mark by extension).
• Made Janus’s long range shots pierce.
• Added a quest marker to Janus once revealed.
• Overhauled Janus’s final phase. He now remains stationary and shoots alternating boomerang waves, requiring a figure-eight motion to go in and out for damage.
• Added damage sounds to Janus’s keys.
• Changed the portal sprite of Oryx’s Chamber to not use the default art.
• Buffed the Stone Guardians with piercing projectiles and overall higher damage.
• Made the Stone Guardian Sword be visibly thrown through the air.
• Fixed the intended dialogue string upon O1’s death.
• Made O2’s dance artifacts disappear more quickly at the end of the phase to prevent instakills.

Lair of Shaitan

• Fixed the laser projectile in Shaitan’s rage phase so it appears continuous.
• Reduced the head’s base HP (253000 ->180000) and lowered his HP scaling (now 30%).
• Added more thematically fitting projectile sprites.
• Dramatically improved the loot. In addition to both whites being slightly more common, Shaitan now drops a guaranteed attack potion with a chance at a second one, as well as a life potion guaranteed to at least one person.
• Added a warning flash to the dungeon portal to be consistent with other dungeons.

Belladonna’s Garden

• Improved the arena map to use consistent art assets and not flicker erratically when Belladonna extends her vines.
• Removed the loot chest.
• Made Bella Buds self destruct upon Belladonna’s death.
• Added damage sounds to the minions.
• Added standard potion loot as a potential drop.

Ice Tomb

• Added a delay to the opening dialogue.
• Gave the portal a warning flash before disappearing, as intended.
• Removed the loot chest. Instead, to ensure accessing your loot mid-fight is not an issue, all three bosses will spawn a small soul upon death. Once all three bosses are defeated, the souls will vanish and drop your loot.

Mad God Mayhem

• Integrated the dungeon onto a single map to feel more fluid, teleporting you to different rooms rather than going into separate portals after each boss is defeated. Some rooms have been adjusted accordingly.
• HP scaling is now consistent across all bosses within the dungeon.

Tutorial/Oryx’s Kitchen

• Fixed broken dialogue strings for Bonegrind. He will now “greet” you upon entering the dungeon and say more varied lines in combat.

A STory of War II: a Ninja, a Mystic and an Assassin… new ST sets!

January 28

Hello Realmers,

Rumors of a mighty new equipment set have been swirling throughout the realms, but the murmurs among the nexus can’t seem to agree on what myth is true. Some speak of an elite set of ninja gear, scavenged from the depths of the Abandoned Mineshaft. Others believe it to be a fiery mystic set, relics from the realm’s prehistoric era. Some even claim it to be a toxic assassin set, a nasty creation by some of the realm’s most vile foes. In truth, all three rumors are true, and they are ready to be unleashed!

The newest 3 ST sets are finally here! This time around, let’s check the details on the new Acidified Assassin, Magmatic Mystic, and Crystal Kunoichi (Ninja) ST sets, created by Aurum:

Valentine’s Day Events [X.32.6.0]

February 12

Hello Realmers,

Belladonna is once more ready to strike in this season of affection. For years now, she has attempted to thwart the wicked traditions of plucking flowers as gifts, frolicking through fields with a loved one, and carelessly trampling the foliage beneath your feet. But as you know, Belladonna has struggled in her efforts to match the strength of experienced heroes.

Not this time. Not again.

She’s moved to a new garden by the misguided mercy of a certain caretaker. And now her roots are more enriched than ever before. If you can still cut her down, she may have some new goodies to acquire. But she’s done being a pushover, and wants to make sure you know it. If you dare enter her garden this time, it may be the plant kingdom that reigns triumphant.

Update 02/12:

We have just pushed a change to fix Bella Buds not being properly immune to stasis, paralyze, stun, and slow. The rotating wheel phase should no longer break or cause the pattern to disrupt in unintended ways.

Valentine’s Day Event

Belladonna Encounter

The Valentine’s Heart Encounter will spawn twice per realm: Once when you defeat all Red Demons, and a second time after you defeat all Ghost Kings.

It consists of a heart-shaped map with 8 gold hearts in the middle that you must light up by pushing the surrounding pink hearts into them. Watch out though, they’re guarded by Succubuses. To achieve your goal, you can:

• Push the pink hearts onto the gold ones
• Defeat the Succubuses and drag their mini hearts to the gold hearts

Belladonna Rework

Belladonna’s Garden has been thoroughly revised! The battle is bigger, the arena is brand new, the art direction has been expanded and improved (huge thanks to TLMaelstrom!), and Belladonna herself is a whole lot more dangerous. Be on your guard! She packs a punch, and may not be kind to adventurers who expect her to lay down and die like in years past.

We added stat bonuses on the Valentine’s Archer STs:

• Heartstruck Bow
• Quiver of Dazing Love
• Cupid’s Garments
• Ring of Unbound Love

Bella’s Key

Since Belladonna’s Garden went through a makeover, it’s only logical that Bella’s Key will also go through one! The key can now be opened anywhere, and may be purchased in the Mystery Shop.

Hearts, Love Letters and Drop Locations

• Both Hearts and Love Letters are now tradable so you can obtain as many as your heart desires. Consuming a stack of 10 Heart will give you a Love Letter x1 (to a max stack of 20).
• Drop locations are:
• Belladonna’s Encounter - Heart x8
• Belladonna’s Garden - Heart x3
• Succubus in the Realm - Heart x1
• Succubus in Dungeons - Heart x2
• Heroes in the Realm - Chance for Heart x1 (not guaranteed)
• Encounters in the Realm - Love Letter x1
• Cursed Library - Heart x3
• Ice Cave - Heart x3
• Haunted Cemetery - Heart x5
• Ocean Trench - Heart x5

New UT’s (with the help of Sturky!):

• Perennial Cranium
• Hanagasaku
• Gem of Tenderness
• Gem of Adoration

Gem of Tenderness drops from Ice Cave and Ocean Trench.

Gem of Adoration drops from Haunted Cemetery and Cursed Library.

Valentine’s Quests

Valentine’s Mystery Item drops items from the Valentine’s Day Archer Set!

Other Upcoming Events

Cursed Library and Haunted Cemetery Event

• The Event will run from 02/12 - 12:00 PM UTC until 02/16 - 12:00 PM UTC.

Succubus in Abyss of Demons, Mad Lab and The Puppet Master’s Theatre

• The Event will run from 02/12 - 12:00 PM UTC until 02/16 - 12:00 PM UTC.

• The Event will run from 02/15 - 12:00 PM UTC until 02/19 - 12:00 PM UTC.

Balance Changes & Dungeon Cap Update [X.32.7.0]

February 26

Hello everyone,

In this release, we have several noteworthy balance changes. Mainly, a revision of tiered abilities and certain tiered weapons/armor (a version of which was on public testing here), and the implementation of lower dungeon player caps that are now actually enforced, instead of being easily broken by entering a portal at once.

We realize balance changes can be cause for concern for players of all kinds, from casual beginners who are just getting familiar with the game’s systems, to veteran players who have optimized the game’s set of rules to routinely tackle endgame content. Because of this, we wanted to take the time to not just lay out the changes themselves, but explain the rationale behind them.
Tiered Item Changes

Let’s start with the equipment changes. There are three facets to this: Tiered ability rescaling, top tier weapon/armor rescaling, and drop rate/location changes.
Tiered Ability Rescaling

Cloaks

Quivers

Spells

Tomes

Helms

Shields

Seals

Poisons

Skulls

Traps

Orbs

Prisms

Scepters

Stars

Wakizashis

In case you missed the public testing session, most tiered abilities have received adjustments to streamline the progression from T0 to T6 while maintaining balance at T6. With Oryx 3 on the horizon and the introduction of T7 abilities, T14 weapons, and T15 armors, the unusual history of T6 abilities became problematic. As you may already know, the majority of T6 abilities are statistical duplicates of T5s, with the very minor addition of +2 VIT and WIS (these bonuses have been replaced universally with +20 HP and +20 MP). If T7s were introduced while ignoring this, T6 would become a largely useless step.

Previous class ability rebalances, such as scepters and traps, have adjusted these over time, but several instances remained. We wanted to take this opportunity to make the step from T5 to T6 a meaningful step across the board, while correcting a handful of other minor inconsistencies along the way. Very few of these changes are drastic enough to have significant impact on your choice of ability (as T6 itself has remained almost entirely the same to keep them on the level UTs are balanced around), but this does make T5s a less desirable substitute.

Top Tier Weapon/Armor Rescaling

• T13 Weapons and T14 Armor Revisions

• T14 Armors

• T13 Robe: +55 MP, +4 ATT, +13 DEF, +6 WIS

• T14 Robe: +60 MP, +4 ATT, +14 DEF, +7 WIS -> +65 MP, +5 ATT, +15 DEF, +7 WIS

• T15 Robe: +65 MP, +4 ATT, +15 DEF, +7 WIS -> +75 MP, +6 ATT, +17 DEF, +8 WIS

• T13 Leather: +17 DEF, +5 DEX

• T14 Leather: +18 DEF, +5 DEX -> +19 DEF, +6 DEX

• T15 Leather: +19 DEF, +5 DEX -> +21 DEF, +7 DEX

• T13 Heavy: +24 DEF

• T14 Heavy: +25 DEF -> +26 DEF

• T15 Heavy: +26 DEF -> +28 DEF

T13 Weapons

Staves
* T12 Staff: 60-100 (80)

• T13 Staff: 60-105 (82.5) -> 65-110 (87.5)

Wands
* T12 Wand: 95-140 (117.5)

• T13 Wand: 100-140 (120) -> 105-145 (125)

Bows
* T12 Bow: 50-75 (62.5)

• T13 Bow: 55-75 (65) -> 60-80 (70)

• T14 Bow: 55-80 (67.5) -> 70-85 (77.5)

Daggers
* T12 Dagger: 95-175 (135)

• T13 Dagger: 95-180 (137.5) -> 110-190 (150)

• T14 Dagger: 100-180 (140) -> 125-205 (165)

Sword
* T12 Sword: 220-275 (247.5)

• T13 Sword: 225-280 (252.5) -> 235-290 (262.5)

• T14 Sword: 230-285 (257.5) -> 250-305 (277.5)

Katanas
* T12 Katana: 135-180 (157.5)

• T13 Katana: 145-185 (165) -> 150-195 (172.5)

• T14 Katana: 150-190 (170) -> 165-210 (187.5)

Other

• Ritual Robe: +10 DEF, +5 ATT, +15 WIS, +40 MP -> +12 DEF +5 ATT +15 WIS +50 MP

• Breastplate of New Life: +160 HP, +12 DEF -> +160 HP, +14 DEF

• All Non-HP/MP T6 Rings: +9 -> +10

Post-WC top weapons and armors now also share a bigger distinction from the previous tier. This is primarily done to make the next two tiers of tops have a more noticeable impact on your character, rather than being a very slight increment and merely greater bragging rights. This makes them more competitive with certain UTs (with a few endgame UT adjustments accordingly) and a desirable upgrade from the comparatively much more common WC tops, making them a better match of rarity vs. value.

Drop Rate/Location Changes

WC tops have been removed from all sources except for the Wine Cellar itself and the Shatters.

Specifically, the removals are from the Woodland Labyrinth, Deadwater Docks, Crawling Depths, Ice Cave, and Lost Halls/Cultist Hideout/Void (though the Cultist Hideout maintains unbound rings as a drop). That last one may stick out. However, it should be noted that this also comes with a dramatic buff in the drop rates of T13 weapons and T14 armors from their respective sources. Many have been doubled and some even as much as tripled, in an effort to keep WC tops economically valuable within their level while ensuring the loot from endgame dungeons is more in line with what an endgame player is looking for.

Over 50 UTs have had their drop rates buffed from all sources. Specifically:

• Orb of Sweet Demise

• Wand of the Bulwark

• Candy-Coated Armor

• Scepter of Fulmination

• Wand of the Fallen

• Orb of Aether

• Recurring Terror Spell

• Scepter of Devastation

• Tome of Pain

• Harlequin Armor

• Prism of Dancing Swords

• Void Blade

• Murky Toxin

• Ghostly Prism

• Soul’s Guidance

• Plague Poison

• Resurrected Warrior’s Armor

• Leaf Dragon Hide Armor

• Water Dragon Silk Robe

• Fire Dragon Battle Armor

• Celestial Blade

• Midnight Star

• Wakizashi of Eastern Winds

• Wakizashi of Crossing Fires

• Skull of Endless Torment

• Prism of Dire Instability

• Sealed Crystal Skull

• Penetrating Blast Spell

• Cnidaria Rod

• Bottled Medusozoan

• Hivemaster Helm

• Fungal Breastplate

• Crystal Shield

• Crystallised Mist

• Echoes Prism

• Refraction Cloak

• Fractured Gemstone Wakizashi

• Star of Enlightenment

• Bracer of the Guardian

• The Twilight Gemstone

• The Forgotten Crown

• Sword of the Colossus

• Marble Seal

• Breastplate of New Life

• Magical Lodestone

• Staff of Unholy Sacrifice

• Skull of Corrupted Souls

• Ritual Robe

• Bloodshed Ring

• Bow of the Void

• Quiver of the Shadows

• Armor of Nil

• Sourcestone

• Omnipotence Ring

These changes correct many historical inconsistencies, taking into account more factors such as the length a dungeon takes to complete on average (Shatters UTs in particular being a major example). These adjustments should result in a generally more rewarding experience across the game, with less “outlier whites” such as Bulwark feeling far rarer than they have a reason to be. This has also partially been done to balance out the effects of the new dungeon cap system, which will be mentioned a little later in this letter.

• Potion drop changes

Lastly, potion drops in endgame dungeons (Lost Halls, the Nest, and both stages of the Abandoned Mineshaft) have been tweaked to create less guaranteed drops and avoid completely flooding large masses of players from all getting several potions. This has been done in the interest of making sure the maxing process does not become overly efficient to those who run these dungeons frequently and allow dungeons like the Ocean Trench and Tomb to remain viable, while also aiming to restore some trading value to such potions.

We realize this may be alarming to some who have become accustomed to large endgame “raids” with mass payouts. However, the changes are not as severe as you may fear. In fact, some of the rates have even been mildly buffed. This change is primarily to help moderate the influx of potions without stripping endgame dungeons of expected loot. So rather than a group of 10 players getting 20 potions and a group of 85 players getting nearly 200 potions cumulatively, the results are more likely to even out at a spot that rewards adequately, but without sending an extreme amount of potions into the overall game. This disproportion leads directly into the final significant change.

Dungeon Cap changed from 85 to 65 players.

Most experienced players are likely familiar with the player limit on dungeons, or more specifically, its ineffectiveness. Though a player limit has always existed on dungeons, it has historically been easily bypassed by simply entering a portal within the same few seconds. This has led to two major problems: Performance and balance.

On the technical side, fitting far more players onto a single map than expected creates problems. One of the most common sources of lag and other performance issues is having an overwhelming amount of players occupying the same limited space. While huge spaces like the realm are built for this, most dungeons are not.

From a gameplay perspective, the lack of real player caps also creates fundamental design problems. Even with scaling measures, virtually no content is built to be able to face off against 100+ players. Such huge mobs can make even the game’s toughest challenges much easier than intended, which ultimately makes for a less interesting and engaging gameplay experience over time.

We feel the game has a responsibility of both fun and stability, which is why we have fixed this long-lasting issue to properly cap dungeons. The default limit has now been placed at 65 for the time being, with a few exceptions based on previous limits (such as heroic dungeons being at 15, and alien wormholes at 25). For dungeons opened by keys, the host is also guaranteed a spot in the dungeon.

Update 02/27/2020:

Note that the key opener’s spot is guaranteed for 25 seconds after the key is popped. After that time runs out, the slot expires and it can be filled by anyone that tries to enter the dungeon portal.

We understand that such changes may be worrying to some players, as this can indirectly result in higher difficulty for endgame content that can be handily steamrolled with larger groups, which will no longer be quite as possible. That said, we do believe that these are healthy changes in the interest of balance, long term gameplay enjoyment, and even trading viability.

We will be very closely watching the in-game impact these changes have, both in the immediate future and over some time as things settle and adapt. Some of these are certainly more impactful than others, and there will likely be some points of contention. We want to stress that none of these changes have been done without long, thorough consideration for the effects they will have. We hope that this letter has given you some insight on our rationale for such changes, and why we believe they are essential actions for the game’s future.

Patch Notes [X.32.7.1] & St. Patrick’s Events

March 11

Top o’ the mornin to ya Realmers!

Not only is the Leprechaun back, but he brought some help. Now instead of one wacky short fellow, we have to chase two! Leprechaun’s cousin is just as fast and tricky as his relative. Legend says he tricked a mystical creature of its gold. As an act of vengeance, the creature took away the one thing the leprechaun’s treasure more than gold: The color green. To remind him of his crimes, the leprechaun was instead turned gold. Regal, but admittedly gharish. To this day, the cursed Leprechaun is haunting several dungeons, enjoying his gold but forever stripped of his green pride.

Patch Notes:

The green Leprechaun will also spawn in newly generated realms about 30 mins after the release is complete.

He also invited his yellow cousin to join the party, so try to catch him too and give him a warm welcome! Seems like disorientation runs in their family! The twist is that this little guy will only appear in the following dungeons, after you defeat the boss:

The Tinkerer has last year’s UT’s ready for the taking! The Patty Token will drop as follows:

We also have a few new UT’s that will drop both from the Yellow Leprechaun and the Pot of Gold in the Rainbow Road:

Patch Notes [X.33.0.0]

Hello Realmers,

It is almost time for the Realm Exalt - Open Beta ! The Supporters had their go and with their help, we will be able to give you a more refined Realm experience to all Realmers starting April 15th !

In other news, it’s April Fools, and you know what that means? That’s right, absolutely nothing! Nope, nothing of note has been altered in any way, so please carry on with business as usual.

Patch Notes

• Player limitation in Realms now works properly (goodbye spamming Interaction!)
  
  • The number of players in realm is updated every 5 sec that is why you might get a “Full dungeon” message on realm which is looking like it has free spot
  • The number takes into account both players in realm and in dungeons inside realm, this is why you can enter 85/85 Realm and see less than 85 players
• Reentering the Nexus Clothing Bazaar right after you exited no longer gives you a “Dungeon is full” error
• Upon using the Crystallized Fang’s Venom and Sporous Spray Spell, the colors of these abilities now match the respective items better
  * The Golden Oryx Effigy can now drop Realm Gold
  * Void and Crystal Cavern keys are now for sale in the Nexus, starting at 450 gold

Unity&Flash Patch Notes/PT/Animations [Patch X.33.1.0]

May 7

We are back with another set of fixes - for both Realm Exalt (Unity) and Realm on Flash. We also want to introduce an awesome cosmetics feature our lovely design team has been working on for awhile now. We know you want to look as fierce on the battlefield as possible but we also know you want to do it in style! Introducing Animations ! More on that below.

Animations Feature

With these new animations, you can customize a specific UT ability and shine bright like a diamond!

• What is the animation feature? - It’s a feature that allows you to add a different animation when you use your UT ability! It’s in the form of a shard. Currently we have the Golden Shard and the Chaos Shard. In their tooltip, you can see what specific UTs they can be applied to.
• How is the shard applied to the UT ability? - You simple have to drag the shard onto the UT ability item that it can applied to. The upgraded version of the UT ability will be created. It will appear in front of your character in a white bag, so don’t wait to pick it up and try it on. Careful though, once merged, the effect cannot be removed from your UT!
• How to tell the difference between the normal UT and the one with animation? - The name of the newly created UT will be different. For example, if you merge a Helm of the Juggernaut with a Golden Shard, the new name of your UT will be Helm of the Juggernaut - Midas.
• What do the current animations look like? - Well… Helm of the Juggernaut - Midas Quiver of Thunder - Overcharged Orb of Conflict - Chaos

Upcoming PT Session

• We will be hosting an Oryx 3 and Bard class PT (Public Testing) session starting this evening! More details on when exactly and how to join, coming soon. Keep an eye on Reddit and RealmEye!
• To show you what it’s all about, our brave designers will be showcasing both Oryx 3 and the new upcoming Bard class before the PT session.

Other Fixes and Miscellaneous

• Feed power on UTs and STs has been updated, as mentioned in our blog.
• The grace period of the Open Beta Campaign has been shortened. It will now end on the May 8, 2020 6:00 AM and not on May 10, 2020 6:00 AM.
• 4325 of you completed the short survey that we posted last week! As promised, everyone gets a FREE Golden Clover as a reward! You can find the once per account free pack in the in-game Mystery Shop starting today till May 12, 2020 7:00 AM. Thank you for participating!
• Fixed the Tome of the Mushroom Tribes which now heals Sorcerers.
• Added a list of skins that drop from each Mystery Class Skin item.
• Fixed the Lost Halls Guild Key display name.
• All Exalt Tokens have been removed from the game.
• Description of the Ring of Decades has been fixed.
• The Wall of Fame name list has been fixed.

The samurai went on a quest to find the gear he heard about in the legend. On his journey, he met a mighty sorcerer and a cunning wizard who took his cause to heart. After years of searching the deepest oceans and the darkest seas, they finally found what they were looking for: a Daring Discoverer Set, a Court Magician ST Sorcerer and a Slurp Scion ST Wizard gear!

Bard is out NOW! [Patch X.34.0.0]

May 20

Hello Realmers,

The moment we’ve all been waiting for. After a public testing session or two (or three)… After the various feedback we got from you guys… It’s time to release the BARD class. With his musical tendencies and a lute in his hands, the Bard inspires your and your group’s attack range!

Most heroes are content with the sounds of clashing swords and earth-shattering spells polluting the battlefield. To some, it is one of life’s constants that they must either accept or be driven mad by. The Bard, on the other hand, finds that there is indeed room for improvement in the cacophony of battle. With the inspiring sounds of his lute, fellow adventurers will reach their full potential like never before!

How the new class looks, works and feels? Check out the Bard Spotlight here!

Other changes

• Added a new star system due to the new Bard class being released. Scale is now:
  
  • Light Blue star: 1-15
  • Dark Blue star: 16-31
  • Red star: 32-47
  • Orange star: 48-63
  • Yellow star: 64-79
  • White star: 80
• Changed the sprites for all tiered wakizashi, Wakizashi of Eastern Winds, and Wakizashi of Crossing Fires to use a style consistent with all other wakis.
• Feed power of the Santa Trickster Skin was reduced from 1000 FP to 500 FP.
• Increased the drop rates of Samurai, Sorcerer and Wizard ST in the Tinkerer’s Chests and added the Bard UT’s to them.
• Art Contest Bard Skins
• New skins

  • Collector’s Monocle
• Chancellor Dammah drops:
  
  • Superior
  • Genesis Spell
  • Diplomatic Robe
  • Chancellor’s Cranium
• Chief Beisa drops:
  
  • Enforcer
  • Ballistic Star
  • Centaur’s Shielding
  • Battalion Banner
• Added the Heavenly Angelic Bard ST Set to Oryx’s Sanctuary (drops from all minibosses and Oryx).
• Added new T14 weapons, T7 abilities, and T15 armors to Oryx’s Sanctuary.
• OST by WangleLine: Added the Wine Cellar Theme to (you guessed it) the Wine Cellar.
• New O3-related cloths: They drop from bosses and minions. Cloths and Cloths drop from the respective bosses. Sanctuary, Steel, and Plate drop from the minions in the dungeon.
• New style of HP scaling known as adaptive scaling. Instead of a linear percentage, enemies in Oryx’s Sanctuary use a more sophisticated exponential formula for HP scaling. This means that the HP difference between the first few people is very minor, but eventually slopes up and becomes increasingly steeper for each person. We aim for this to allow smaller groups to benefit and not contend with levels of HP scaling mostly meant to match larger parties, and may implement this new style across the game at a later date.

• Phase 1 always uses four chains of shots instead of expanding each time and he will stay at each point longer, but will also explode into bolts with each teleportation.

• Following phase has a longer time between volleys of gem bombs, with outside coins continuing to shoot inward.
• Final phase is less abrupt with its charging coin attacks.
• This list is not exhaustive! There are plenty of minor changes and additions as well, so be prepared for a fairly new experience!
• Fixes on T7 trap (incorrect stat bonuses), T7 seal (uneven buff times) and T15 heavy armor (FP equalized with the other T15 armors).

Discord Boosting Rewards

Starting now, you can earn in-game Realm gold for nitro boosting the discord server!

On the first day of every month, starting September 1st, all nitro boosters will receive gold based on how long they have been boosting the server (including before this announcement). The rewards go as follows:

• 100 gold if this is your first consecutive month
• 150 gold if this is your second consecutive month
• 200 gold for each month you continue boosting afterwards

BUT! If you ever stop boosting the server, you will be reset back to 100 gold if you start boosting again. Additionally, boosting more than once will have no effect.

We will currently only limit 100 people to be able to earn gold through nitro boosting. If you boost after there are already 100 boosters on the server, you won’t receive any gold reward.

Important! Nitro boosters must link their account to be eligible for gold - you can link your account in #bot-channel using !link [ign]

Misc

• Fixed description of Ghost Captain Rogue Skin.
• New Skins
