Patch 0.14 – ADN Rework is Here!

Hunters, get ready!

The Asteroid Dungeon Nemesis (ADN) is getting a major overhaul in Patch 0.14, bringing a more dynamic, challenging, and rewarding experience to endgame players. We've reimagined ADN to provide better pacing, fresh mission variety, and meaningful rewards to make your time spent in the dungeon more exciting.

What's New in the ADN Rework?

[h2]🔄 Shorter Cycles [/h2]

Tired of waiting a full week for the next ADN cycle? We've shortened the reset time from 7 days to just 3 days, giving you more frequent opportunities to farm, progress, and get more rewards!

[h2]⚔️ Difficulty Revamp[/h2]

Regular ADN: Redesigned to become more accessible and rewarding. Enemy levels now range from 35–45, ensuring a smoother difficulty curve for all players.
Greater ADN: This high-level challenge has been redesigned to be soloable and extra challenging.

[h2]🎯 More Missions, More Rewards![/h2]

12 Missions Added: We’ve expanded the ADN mission pool to keep things fresh while retiring older, less engaging missions.
Greater ADN as the True Pinnacle Activity: Expect the ultimate test of skill with missions that require well-optimized builds and top-tier execution. Conquering these challenges will earn you an exclusive banner title.
Better Rewards: Greater ADN rewards are now focused on late-endgame build tweaking stuff, such as the new Orbs and Crystallized Time.

[h2]🛡️ New Gameplay Mechanics[/h2]

Resistance Debuff: ADN now introduces a resistance debuff system, requiring you to balance your offense and defense to survive. Prepare your builds wisely!

[h2]🛠️ Orbs of Modification[/h2]

New item type for modifying Gear pieces and Weapons.

Shifting Orb: Rerolls selected item’s Affixes, except High-end ones (Augmented, Set, or Legendary).
Utopic Orb: Ultra Rare Orb that rerolls Super Affixes.
Orbs drop from Champions and end-of-mission Chests (drop rates increase based on mission Timeline).
Utopic Orb is exclusive to one of the Greater ADN Floors.
