World Talents


Over 80 new talents have been added to the leveling system.



Each talent family has:

One Mastery
Three Tier 1 talents
Three Tier 2 talents
One Tier 3 talent

You can only acquire higher-tier talents by obtaining the previous ones.

The talent system is tied to weapons. You only unlock a Paladin talent if you have a Paladin weapon, like a Holy Bible.

The new weapon/talent selection screen displays which family that weapon or talent belongs to.

Mastery System

All weapon families have a mastery, which is a parent talent that always appears when you acquire a weapon.

If you obtain a paladin weapon (holy bible), you will instantly gain the paladin mastery.

The mastery does not level up. To strengthen the mastery, you need to acquire skill points during leveling. These skill points are:

Occultism (to increase the character's mastery damage)
Faith (to manipulate some mastery mechanics)
Perseverance (to increase the chance of mastery activation)

Mechanics


Banish System (for Weapons and World Talents at Leveling System)
Curse System (A new corruption leveling system for bridge and tower maps.)
Magic Damage Stat
Magic Armor Stat
Spirit Stat (It increases the effect of healing and health shields.)
Summon Limit Stat

Glyphs


All racial glyphs have been added.

UI


New In-Game UI
New End-Game UI
New Pause-Game UI
Map Improvements

Languages


New translation for all languages.
Russian Language (Beta)
Ukrainian Language (Beta)

Others


We have improved the data collection feedback for eggs and runes in the world.
Several minor interface improvements.
