Testing Realmers!
We are bringing you another weekend full of things to test! This time, you can have a look at the upcoming Mining Event, Ice Citadel, and Advanced Dungeon changes! Additionally, the next set of Account Levels can now be reviewed by you.
As always, feel free to leave us feedback on our social channels.
Mining Event
Soon a new event will be available in the Realm! This focuses on discovering various materials and relics scattered throughout the world, use and upgrade your pickaxe to obtain better rewards!
Realm Events
After 10 minutes of the realm being open, mineral ores appear across the different biomes. These ores include stone, iron, emerald, and diamond. Stone ores can be found in Rookie and Adept biomes, iron and emerald ores can be found in Adept biomes, and diamond ores can be found in Veteran and Adept biomes!
These ores must be broken with a pickaxe, each one can break ores of its own material and any lower-tier ores, for example, an iron pickaxe can break iron and stone ores, but not emerald or diamond. A diamond pickaxe, on the other hand, can break all ore types! These are rings that, when the ability is used, a pickaxe spawns and mine the corresponding ores, it can be controlled with the mouse wheel-button (default key bind).
Once the ore breaks down, loot appears, the higher the tier of the material, the higher the chance of loot! Also, when these ores they reach half health, enemies will spawn and the ore becomes invincible until those enemies are defeated. Gain mineral materials in order to upgrade your pickaxe, this way, you can access more types of ores!

Quests
Ice Citadel
Hear the call beneath the ice, where Esben—last scion of the Runic Tribes—endures a torment no soul was meant to bear. His children of shadow and sorrow still guard his prison, birthed from madness and longing in a world gone silent. Will you brave the frost and shattered time to free him—or leave a broken god to dream alone forever?
Neurotic Realmers!
Are you ready to take on our latest exaltation dungeon; the Ice Citadel? The Ice Citadel is a reconstruction of our previous Ice Cave, increasing both difficulty and rewards along with a new effect called Blizzard.
Blizzard
Upon entering the dungeon, snowflakes will fall across your screen obscuring vision. Stay too long in the cold and your speed will be reduced by 5% for every 10% of the frostbite meter filled. Additionally, at 100% meter you will begin taking frostbite damage over time! Find warmth in torches and braziers scattered around the dungeon to save you from freezing to death.
Loot and Exaltation
The Ice Citadel will share a Speed exaltation with the Cutlist Hideout, both granting guaranteed progress to maxed out players.
When it comes to loot, Esben’s old gear has been enhanced to reflect the dungeon’s new difficulty. Note, Esben’s Skullish Remains effect remains unchanged until Necromancers rework later this year™. The Frost Harbinger Paladin and the Frost Advisor Samurai will begin dropping for the first time ever. But that’s not all! There are also several new items in Esben’s Twisted Heart, Esben’s Vows, and Ase’s Echo.
Advanced Dungeons
Continuing from last PT we have some adjustments to the Advanced Nest and Steamworks dungeon, we have mainly incorporated some of the balance feedback from last week so if you want a full list of changes check last weeks post.
- Lowered the difficulty and improved clarity of various Advanced Steamworks phases
- Plagued Nest bossroom is now plagued
- Both dungeons have received some loot improvements with steamworks now offering additional chances at Upgrade cores and a potential for the Kogbold Multitool.
Account Levels Expansion & Improvements
