Mist Legacy News

Greetings,

Today we are releasing our last content update of 2021.

On the content side, you'll be able to progress with the Circle of the Great tree and with the Arcanists to get new spells for damage and heal. We also got a lot of cool changes in the game engine related to gathering, fighting and getting landform skill. Check out the changelog for more details.

The biggest change today has to do with the game shop. We got lots of comments about how you can form a party in the game and how it is perceived by new players. To improve the game experiences, the first thing we did is to create a dedicated slot for the carts. It means that a new player can now have two companions and a cart. This will improve a lot the experience of everyone and make the game much easier for players who want to play solo.

The second major change we did on the market is to lower the price of the second companion’s slot, making it more accessible for everyone will improve the balance of the game. Everyone that already purchased it will be reimbursed 400 Blue Crowns.

To make sure our system is understood, we changed the presentation of the game shop. Now you will find a dedicated page for the unlocks and Scissana will give you hints about each purchasable item. We hope this page will make our monetization system much more understandable and remove the "surprise effect" that our old system generated.

The team will take a short break for next week. It will be a good time for us to take a step back and think about all that we will have to do in 2022.

Thanks a lot to all our players, we could not do it without you!

You get up from your bed with a strange feeling. The lighting is not the same, everything is brighter. You approach the window and you understand what is going on. The Windchill has started, winter has fallen on Valsonge and the Mists. To your surprise, the lands of Ordval do not yet appear to be affected by the Windchill. What does it mean? Is this a clue about your domain's position in relation to Kortombe? Or maybe the seasons of the world outside the Mists are in no way related to those of your native land?

This new change of season brings you more questions than answers on the temporal and geographical links between Mists and Myriaden. You will need all your courage to continue your exploration in this cold weather. Luckily for you, Scissanna has a good supply of supon for the fireplace and Ovie will be able to stay warm inside the mansion.

Greetings,

Today update is massive in scale. We needed to increase your playground, both in territories and skill caps, for our future content updates. For our players that have been with us for a while, it should give you back the feeling of progressing in the game, with skill that needs to be raised, recipe that needs to be found, new regions to discover and buildings to upgrade. For new players, the game progression will be much more natural as you should not hit a hard cap on skills. See the release note below for more details.

What's on our task list next? We are preparing a special release for next week and we need to take some time to analyze the many comments you sent us. We will be looking for changes that are needed in the core of the game to make sure our foundations are solid.

You can expect that we will reach the next level of all reputation caps that are late (Circle, Rose, Hippogriff, Gantras and Thorval) before 2022. This mean we will start the new year with all we need to get the game to the next step.

We are entering today our last week of our "Portal Pioneer" event. It means this is your last chance to get the exclusive character frame that will show that you are an early adopter of the game.

Thank you for playing!
Virtys

Greetings!

Welcome to the Minotroll update. As part of our weekly topic on long-term gameplay, we are testing a few things about grinding and also how to avoid it. The update offers plenty of challenges that are not all required to reach your goal to get to the new reputation level for the Claw and to get the new warehouse. There are also a few secret challenges that you should search for.

Keep in mind that some of the challenges for this week should normally be a bit harder than usual because next week update should unlock a lot of new talents, skills and crafts. That's the fun of playing an Early Access!

A major change in the game engine is the removal of the "Fight" button. This button was breaking many of the gameplay elements and was dangerous for new players. We finally got the time to work on the features we always wanted to have, a button that emulates travel and will offer you fights based on presence ratios and special conditions to appear.

Check out the release notes below for more detail about what to expect.

Thank you for playing!
