Minor Update: Visuals, Balancing, Quests 8.3

Released: Jul 22, 2026

Revamped skill tree textures, a new Epic Knights chapter and a reworked armor progression. Weapons were buffed 2x to 3x.

Gameplay Changes#

  • Buffed all Simply Swords and Epic Nightfall weapons by 2x to 3x, since players were using DragonSteel weapons.
  • Murasama and Yamato are no longer craftable and moved to the Act 5 questline.
  • Added a new Epic Knights chapter with reworked, retagged and rebalanced Daggers, Claymores (new moveset) and Rapiers.
  • Reworked all dragon armor sets (Scale Armor, Dragon Steel Armor and their upgraded variants), moved to the Rise of The Champion chapter. Their strengths are high armor and armor toughness, and the ice variants also provide spell power.
  • Added green path (crit chance) armor sets: Sunleia, Black Soul (Soul Ingot), Forlorn and Soul Eater (Soul Robes). Crimson Armor moved to T7, Soul Eater is the new T8 armor, and Ruinfighter now has crit chance.
  • Reworked Molten Cryolite and Cryolite armor into the red path after dragon steel, and removed Molten Cryolite and Cryolite weapons.
  • Added the Blade Dancer class (twinblade, chakram, warglaive). Nerfed Warrior powers (damage -15%, crit damage -30%) to give other classes a chance.
  • New weapon tags: Moon Elf (Cutlass, Sai and upgrades), Ogre (Greataxe, Halberd and upgrades, Torment), Valkyrie (Icewhisper, Crescentmoon, Agony). New Dwarf power Mountain’s Core increases Greathammer damage by 25%. Fixed the Samurai tooltip.
  • Increased belt (trinket) slots from 1 to 2, and expanded the Rise of The Champion, Sky Arena, Act 2, Nether, End and Overworld quest chapters.
  • Changed the Amnesia scroll penalty from 20% to 0% (new worlds only).
  • Changed the recipes for the Huge Estus Flask (crimson flask), dragon summoning crystals and Dormant Deepshelf. The Warden heart drop was removed and is now craftable, and the Otherside dimension moved to the early Nether.
  • Fixed the Ice Sky Arena, removed Aqua Mages from the Sky Arena, and fixed the Cryptic Eye with an enchant recipe.
  • Sigil of Withdrawal now has a 50% chance to destroy gems (credit: Kayn). Nerfed lifesteal on most gems and several unbalanced new gems.
  • Buffed Cataclysm boss minions (level 200), disabled affix scrolls, removed Dragon Horn, Vengeful Parry, Warriors Broadblade and most useless duplicates (daggers, shortswords, knives).
  • Prevented several mobs from spawning with unnecessary equipment, and improved ambient environments.
  • Forlorn no longer drops his equipment.
  • Fixed a dual-wielding bug (credit: Kayn) and many random particle crashes.

  • Revamped all skill tree node textures (credit: LaTabla) and improved many dragon textures.
  • Removed attributes that conflicted with spell power from Simply Swords and Soulslike weapons.
  • Added more storage options with Sophisticated Storage.
