A R4VEN.MK.III Pet has found its way into your collection of Cosmetics. Navigate to the Pets section of the Customize menu to take a look for yourself!
This mysterious device arrived bearing an encrypted runic sequence that reads:
“To all of our Einherjar, I am sending you this raven drone to celebrate the official launch of our glorious mission on July 27th of Midgard Year 2021. We thank you for your patience while we continuously improve the game and your experience. May it watch over you and your tribe. Your support is worth more to us than the Nine Realms combined.” – Sincerely, Techno Oðinn.
<>Gameplay Changes
Saga Mode
Added Bomblings and Sirelings to Helthing attack waves during Fimbulwinter
Norsfell: This change should make the continuous night defenses of Fimbulwinter more challenging and more interesting for those who wish to brave Saga Mode’s late game.
Survival Mode – Easy
Increase to Creature, Helthings and Jötunn Difficulty
Survival Mode – Medium and Hard
Moderate increase to Creature, Helthings and Jötunn Difficulty
Slight increase to Jötunn HP, Armor and Attack Multiplier as they level up
Norsfell: We are putting additional efforts into fine-tuning the difficulty of Survival Mode to make it a bit more engaging and challenging for players, both in early game and as the Days progress.
Bosses
Decreased the amount of Souls granted for defeating Fenrir by 30%
Decreased the amount of Souls granted for defeating Jötunn by 6% overall
Norsfell: The Souls economy is integral to the game and we’re continuing to fine-tune the yield from all sources for a more balanced experience. We felt the very high amount of Souls awarded for defeating Fenrir, for example, were supplying late-game players a little too well as they prepared for the attrition of Fimbulwinter.
Quests
Adjusted the rewards and increased the number of them granted for completing Quests
Souls awarded for completed Quests are now adjusted based on the labelled Difficulty of the Quest, with Hard awarding the most and Easy awarding the least.
Completed Quests will now respawn after 10 Days
Slight increase to the amount of Helthings required to be defeated to complete the “To Hel with You” Quest.
