Realm of the Mad God Exalt News

It’s Thursday! It’s also fall in the northern hemisphere. Meet the author of some amazing artwork: Maggie! And check the end of the post to see when you can also meet the Pumpkin Master.

Nationality and Age?
Hello! I am Maggie! I hail from the United States and currently live in the 45th worst state (guess which one!) I recently turned 21 in July.

What is your day job? Tell us about it.
I am a College Student studying computer science with a minor in art history and game design! I am a very bad student and actively neglecting my classwork to write this interview.

Any hidden talents or hobbies?
I can do anything you ask me extremely poorly, unless I know how to do it.
No but actually I love baking, I'm bad at it but I still love to do it. My massive sweet tooth forces me to create sweet things, and then I'll become a sweeter person!
I can vaguely program and have participated in 2 game jams and am currently working on a cool game with my friend.
My other secret hobby is creating digital tournaments of my friend's original monster creations using a custom built engine. (I will not elaborate further.)

I'm also very good at making friends. In fact, the person reading this right now is now my friend !!!


Read the rest of the interview on the blog!

Hello Realmers,

With today’s small update we bring two changes:
First, Totalia was spawning in a rather unintended way - she will now spawn 3 times 10 minutes after Realm creation.

Better news second, we have made some balance changes to the Schematic system. They will now be guaranteed to drop for one player from The Forgotten King and two from Oryx 3 and their drop rates have been increased from The Bridge Sentinel, The Twilight Archmage, Marble Colossus, Malus, the Void Entity, the Killer Bee Queen, the Beekeeper, Crystal Worm Mother and the Crystal Entity].

The Schematic system was not intended by us to be a dedicated grind, but rather a thing that one accumulates on the side while doing Exaltation dungeons. The blueprints one can acquire from this system are meant to rotate back around at a moderate pace (not too quick so one is gripped by the fear of missing out, yet not too slow so if you miss a Blueprint, you’d not need to wait for a long time for it to return).

As you can see, we are still tweaking the system, so keep the feedback coming - feel free to drop a comment at the blog!

Spooky Realmers,
Halloween is one of our favorite seasons of the year and we wanted to give you something special. While the development team has been dedicating their time to fixing bugs and making the game more secure for you, the LiveOps team worked hard to bring you the new Bazaar and some exciting Campaign, Events, Quests and spooky ST reskins!

The Grand Bazaar
Not only dungeons get reconstructed. We are very pleased to announce that the old Cloth Bazaar was completely remodeled and expanded to fit its new grandeur, it’s now called the Grand Bazaar! We want to encourage you to use this space for trading or simply hang out. Now you will find sections for pets (with food, eggs, and pet skins); blacksmith (ores, nilshards, and blueprints); cosmetics (character skins, dyes, and cloths); rings, and one section for each class. We know that some of you like to meet in the Bazaar with your friends to open your favorite dungeons, so we made 4 thematic rooms that were designed just with this purpose. Give it a try!

Check out the complete release notes at the blog.

Hello Realmers,

The bosses at the Godlands have all become a little bit madder since MotMG. With Halloween approaching the veils between the realms have become thinner, messing even more with their heads. For the next 13 days, we’ll need your help containing the madness. And the best part? You might be picked to get the bounty you chose!

The event will last from today, October 15th, to October 27th.

Remember those Make-a-wish raffle events that we used to have? Well, today we are starting something very similar, but with a twist to give you more chances to win. It’s still very easy to participate, check out how at the blog post, and let the Headhunt begin!

The Realm Eye says that “Oryx, in a drunken stupor, pulled the door leading to the court out of the stone walls and breathed sinister life into it, turning it into Janus the Doorwarden.”. That means that canonically, Janus was animated by Oryx’s alcoholic breath. Think of that what you will. While you are considering whether Janus must be at least a little bit boozed at all times or if he is immune to alcohol, read up on what’s going on this weekend:

All Court of Oryx dungeons (High Tech Terror, Cnidarian Reef, Lair of Shaitan, Secluded Thicket, Puppet Master’s Encore) will have a 1.5x loot and XP multiplier from Friday, October 8 at 12:00 PM UTC until Tuesday, October 12, 12:00 PM UTC. Time to get an E.Y.E.!

Janus, who is obviously two-faced, is too unreliable to drop an Event Chest and the loot will fall directly out of his, hm, pockets. From Friday, October 8 at 12:00 PM UTC until Tuesday, October 12, 12:00 PM UTC, Janus the Doorwarden will have the chance to drop the following items:
