Blight of the Frost Keep Preview

Cobalt Blue — Thu, 21 Jul 2016 18:33:00 +0000

LEVEL CAP INCREASE
The new Blight of Frost Keep update will introduce a level cap increase to 35! Power up your Rider in preparation for what awaits them as they journey into unknown territory.

PARNA’S COAST
Enter the new snow-covered lands of Parna’s Coast and see what new quests and challenges await you! As vast as the Hakanas Highlands, discover new dangers and new familiars as you explore this fascinating new region. Join up with others to try out the Field Raid, defeating various powerful monsters including Archer Chief Poseana, Mage Chief Usula, and Chieftan Keron. These level 34 enemies are ready to fight! Finally, beware of the misty frost that permeates the area, affecting your mobility if you aren’t prepared!

THE FROST KEEP
Riders (level 34 and above) will find an icy challenge awaiting them when they enter The Frost Keep, the stronghold of the Frost Guard and their enigmatic leader, Rondo Terramunce. Inside this barren and lifeless keep, you’ll have the opportunity to find new ghostly familiars to add to your collection. Then challenge the boss, Rondo himself! Don’t underestimate his abilities that will freeze you in your tracks or slow you to a crawl.

CAVERN OF THE VEIL
Riders (level 34 and above) will unearth more mysteries when they enter the Cavern of the Veil! Tread carefully within this gigantic underground cave as you will face off against a variety of deadly bosses! Tightly guarded by Merumi zealots who worship Radan, your path to the final battle will “switch” from time to time! Be prepared to fight one of the following bosses if you survive the journey: Skalion, High Priest Killian, Ankelion, or the all-seeing Radan’s Eye. Beware the Eye’s powerful gaze as it may silence your skills and render you helpless. As you explore, keep an eye out to find and tame another rare familiar for your collection!

NEW FAMILIARS
Plenty of new familiars will be added and available for you to tame!
