Realm of the Mad God Exalt News

Realmers,

There’s a new Story of War in the Realm and with it comes a fix for the Kensei Dash.
We are also bringing you the new Captcha system which should be a nice way to counter the bots in Realm. So let's jump straight into the new things coming to Realm!

[h3]Captcha[/h3]
The captcha system is something we have been preparing for some time and is a big step towards countering the pesky bots we see in the Realm.

Solving the captcha means clicking the three given shapes on the square picture in the order provided above it. After that, you can submit the result by hitting verify. If successful, you should see the launcher logging into the account. If failed, a new captcha is displayed with the text “Try again” below it. You can submit three wrong results before it locks you out (and displays “Too many failed captchas” popup).

[h3]Fiery Kensei ST Set [/h3]
A young Kensei with amusing skills. She does a short, but strong dash, sprays flames, and spawns extra projectiles on the third use. Her light powerful blade with curving shots is capable of burning even the toughest opponents. Traveling along with her fire lizard, she joins the realm all fired up and ready for battle!

• Fiery Katana
  
• Pyro Sheath
  
• Flame Guard
  
• Firelight Necklace

[h3]Other:[/h3]

• Dimitus and the Wanderer (if their respective Dungeon Mods are active) will now spawn with lower damage values and an altered loot table in early-game dungeons, like Pirate Cave.
  
• Campaign points will now also show on the individual items in the shop (just like we have them for boxes and packages)
  
• Dye Presets are now being saved per class and not per character.
  
• Updated Duality Priest Credits.

[h3]Fixes:[/h3]

• Fixed a bug when forging using Mark of the Tesseract Goddess that disabled you to select for dismantling other forge fire reduction items like Blueprints.
  
• Points and progress for a campaign will now update immediately after you make a purchase.
  
• Fixed an issue that caused Unlockers (skin, vault, or character slot) to fail if used in the backpack inventory with shift+click after it has just been opened.
  
• Fixed a bug that caused the Necromancer's Skulls' Tooltips to show the total range of the heal ability incorrectly
  
• Fixed an issue with the Pontifex Ring and Scallywag Slurp Pet Skin, having off-centered icons.
  
• Damage numbers will now be visible for all Area of Effect shots.
  
• Fixed a small visual issue in the shop where the purchase button will show gold for a promotion that is sold for fame instead.
  
• Fixed an issue where you could not scroll the page in shop if you are resting the cursor on the Buy button
  
• Performance improvements
  

Hello Realmers,
As Elemental force surges with nature’s spring upheaval on March 29th, the whole Realm seeks alignments with Earth, Air, Water, or FIRE. When the Kensei arrived, one would never imagine he would bring both water and fire with him. Air and Earth were already there. They have chosen the Bard and Summoner latest ST sets to show their true forms. But trust us, that was only a mere glimpse of what’s to come. Some say that even some old dungeons might be affected by this surge of old, primal energies...
You are now invited to enter the STory of War Bonus Program and claim the Fiery ST Set for yourself.
The STory of War Bonus Program is a time-limited event that can be accessed in the Shop. It allows players to collect Bonus Points with gold they spend in the Shop (or by directly boosting it via the Boost button) and claim Bonus Rewards. You can collect BP by purchasing Mystery Boxes, Packages, and Items in the Nexus and Grand Bazaar areas with Realm gold.
Please note that slot unlockers and name changing do not count for the bonus program. Fame purchases do not count, either.

Realmers!

The Alien Event is still in full swing! But something is creeping up in the distance. The Leprechaun is preparing for his time to shine. So prepare your backpack and get ready to jump into another week full of events.
Events

Starting on the 15th of March at 12 PM UTC the Leprechaun finds his way into Realm! The Saint Patrick's Day Event starts!
The Event ends on the 20th of March at 12 PM UTC.

The Leprechaun is going to spawn two times per realm in the midlands. First, after the Red Demons are dispatched and a second time after the Ghost Kings are defeated.
The Leprechaun drops 4 Patty coins while the coins can drop 1!

The Leprechaun’s Lucky Hat will grant you one piece of St. Patrick’s equipment upon consumption.

Hello Realmers,

This week the open testing is LOADED with new stuff that you can try out for the first time. Not sure what we mean by LOADED? This is what you can expect:

• Fix for the Kensei disconnections
  
• The Shatters speedup
  
• Mountain Temple Rework
  
• Lair of Draconis Rework
  
• Fiery Kensei Set
  
• Bow Rework
  
• Katana Rework
  
• Item rebalance
  
• Favorite pet functionality added
  

Please note that you’ll need to download the Testing Launcher so that you can join this session. Also, as usual, your regular production account won't work here. If you don’t have one already, you’ll need to create a Testing one. And don’t forget to remove it when you are finished testing. Doing so will avoid issues with the actual production launcher when we update the game.

Please continue reading on the blog

Realmers!

It’s time to let loose, wear a mask and party like it’s Fat Tuesday and a fast is coming fast! Unfortunately, the Masks' transform functionality is yet to return, but you will still be able to get these Tier 6 Ring reskins from quests for Carnival Tokens. And, to make sure you are well disguised, you will be able to choose two skins, one from the Masks' transformations, and one that just generally screams: CARNIVAL!
