Hello Realmers,
With today’s update, we bring you the brand new Storm Caller Bard and Earthen Bulwark Summoner ST sets, optimize Dungeon Mods, tweak Shatters and fix many other issues. Read on!
New ST Sets
Added Storm Caller Bard ST Set and Earthen Bulwark Summoner ST Set (More about that on tomorrow’s post!).
Dungeon Mods
- Reenabled Noble Boss Dungeon Mod.
- Fixed Bis, Prisimimic and other Dungeon Mods that were not working on the Mad God Mayhem dungeon.
- Fixed usability bugs related to Dungeon Mods applied to the Mad God Mayhem dungeon.
- Fixed a bug on Mad God Mayhem key not able to be refined.
- Fixed an issue with a few mods not working in the Machine Dungeon
- Fixed the XP Boost (Minions) bug not working correctly on Cave of a Thousand Treasures.
- Court of Oryx won’t spawn with Dungeon Mods naturally. However, the CoO dungeon keys can have Dungeon Mods.
- Dungeon Mod “Guaranteed Stat Potion” won’t work with “minibosses” in Candyland Hunting Grounds, only with the final boss.
- This same Dungeon Mod “Guaranteed Stat Potion” will however now guarantee Mystery Stat Potions alongside regular Stat Potions, if the boss normally dropped any.
- Optimized Dungeon Mods.
Note: We are preparing more revisions of the Dungeon Mod system, including new functionalities that go beyond numerical value changes, biased towards more significant and customized changes that will make the system more significant and tweak the risk/reward factor of each dungeon by playing with real, tangible gameplay changes. However, this system is still not ready and we have decided on improving the existing distribution for this update while we work on these new Dungeon Modifiers. We’ll keep you updated but please know the team is very enthusiastic about your feedback and suggestions for new/improved mods.
Dungeon Mods new distribution system
- We have been revisiting the current distribution of Dungeon Mods.
- We have decided that certain early and mid-level dungeons won’t have access to particular dungeon modifiers, regardless of their Grade.
- This means that even if a dungeon-like Pirate Cave is Grade S, you cannot still get the “Noble Boss” dungeon mod in it.
- We think these measures are necessary for a better balance and, very importantly, to serve as foundations of the upcoming changes and new Dungeon Mods.
- For the time being these rules apply equally to rolling Keys and natural spawning in the Realm, but please understand we are monitoring and actively discussing the system and it might be revisited in the future.

Special Food
Oh, and on a final note, please hang on to those Crystals of Fortune because the Quests to exchange them will return in the future.
i think it would be nice to have more guild stuff. idk exactly what, but maybe guild quest, a guild chest, guild campaign. maybe add something where it cost guild fame to upgrade. or maybe make it so everyone has the same tinkerer quest so it encourages people to run the same dungeon. idk, just some thoughts.
Wow wow wow! These changes are looking amazing. Lots of very much needed tweaks. Excellent work DECA!! You are taking the game in a great direction and I can’t wait to see more of it. Keep at it!
Deca fixing tp invuln issues? Pogg!
