LVL 55 expansion on the test server !

I created this post to show what the new expansion has brough us in the test server. I will keep updating it as i descover new things. I ask of you to post anything i forget or miss.

This is the new world map. The new region is located at the bottom right while the PW where moved to the centre of the map.


You can access the new region either by Yaltepelt (where you'll have to take the gold mission from Zahir)

or from the splintered city of Cardoun

Or Kingshill:

There may be more places to get to the new area however i haven't found them yet, (i think there is a portal where ever zahir is)

NEW GEMS

There is a new kind of gem. They have the same name but at the end " of Qiazah" is added (Qiazah is the name of the new region)
You can either buy them from the shop:

Or create them using the new Gem refiners (how i don't know yet)
To get the Gem refiners you either buy them:

Or get them from daily missions:

If there is another way to get them, i'm not aware of it yet.

INFERNAL DEFFICULTY:
When you reach lvl 55 you can use a higher difficulty in the PW called Infernal:


To play excrusiating and fatal you still need to be lvl 50, that means you can use the +400% xp modifier on fatal to lvl up faster.

In infernal you can get these cores:


And from the materi fragment trader you can buy sou stones and pristine cores:


How exacly you use them i have no idea

Also in the shop (T) you can find fragments of infernal passage:

The fact that at the difficulty selection it is labaled as Infernal I makes me think that there are more leves of this difficulty.

THE GEMS OF QAIZAH:
There is a new type of gem:

They are more powerfull than normal gems and cost more.
To get them you either buy them or create them using the new Gem refiners:

You can either buy them aswell or get them through daily missions:

(if there is another way, i'm not aware of it)

BONE COINS:
You can use your boin coins to buy things from the bone coin merchant located at in the new region:



JEWELS AND RUNES (?)

When you pick "Work on gems and items" on the jeweler there is a new slot thats used by runes and jewels:

How ever i have no info what so ever about them, so if anyone knows please post your info bellow.

DUNGEONS ON THE NEW REGION HAVE DIFFICULTY MENU:
The dungeons on the new region have 3 difficulties, (at least the ones i could check, that is 2 of em)


EDIT: I will be updating this post with new things as fast as i notice them

ok, i learner my lesson

 

You can make a new post, after this one.

Cheers.

 

Sunlight made a feedback post for the Storm Of Malice expansion, however i can't reply to that thread for some reason.
At the bottom right it says (You have insufficient privileges to reply here.)

 

It was locked right away.

 

why?

 

Well I know everybody is excited about the new expansion. But before u start something so huge like that, i think u need to learn some technical prerequisites. Its not just print+copy+paste and add your guesses. Try to check Trakilaki posts when he introduce something new and follow his steps

 

there are 2 new gems from Zympe ... and on all of the gems from him (thise with clovers) now is writen "rune" .. and maybe we can put them on the new added slots for runes and jewels on the items, i guess other unique gems - for helm, cloak, will be renamed as "runes" too...

 

This is a very important question : I read on a FB group that rangers will no longer be able to use longbow + quiver / buckler. Can anyone check it pls on test server? In my case for instance , if i wake up and cant equip my quiver + longbow , im ruined lol . My quiver is 4 lines crit hits lol. So pls , im waiting for info to prepare a shortbow on the next days and adjust my ranger to at least survive. TYVM

 

So sorry, heroes!!
It was my mistake You can now express yourself there. I moved it to the wrong section, where you can't write. Sorry for that.

Cheers,

 

You can check it.

You can't believe anything from a bunch of people who make claims without evidence.

 

All special gems are now runes ... now you can place them in every item (what item to use on - it is written in the tooltip).

all slots down are for runes ... and those up are for gems (in all items).
The number of rune slots is equal to the number of gem slots you get on the item. If you get an item with 3 slots ...then you will have 3 rune slots as well. If you want to open 2 more gem slots so you would have 5 ... you get 2 more rune slots automatically.

Just remember ... from now on the number 4 is the magic number ... since all items are now in 4 Tiers (ordinary items, uniques, runes ...etc) .
Your crafted items are now T0 ...not T1,T2,T3, T4 but T0 ... in other words they have no tiers. Items in Tiers are dropping only in the new PW (painful-T1 .... Infernal T4) ... all of them green, blue, purple and orange.

I can't provide you more info about crafting ... because I couldn't test it enough ... simply because I have no items to test with.
I have tested some basics.
So basically now you can transfer stats from ordinary items to unique items ... ...
From now on ...those items are having base stats as well (all stats are random ... even the stats on highest tier items T4)
New enchantments are available ...
That means that crafting now is "mission impossible"


10,84% faster weapon attack speed in gold? since when ? that means weapon attack speed has been nerfed down.

WTH


All new unique items are different ... but your items will stay the same ... that applies only to new ones.
This is the "famous" Sigrismarr Set ... T4 version (your T3 will remain the same ... BUT ... the new T3 version is upgraded

 

Not true.
Ranger is working as nowadays Already checked.

Cheers,

 

How did you get 5 royals? And thats 307 mil glyphs???? how???

 

It's test server... things happen in there ...plus IMO Trakilaki deserves perks for all his work on Drakensang Wikia.

 

I am DSO Wiki admin ... Haruki gave them to me after all gems and glyphs have been removed from all players (me as well). Remember the Dunes of Desolation TS merchant exploit?
Like I said CM Haruki gave them to me

I can get items and currency at TS ... it is part of our deal .
But only if I ask ... and I rarely ask anything ...last time I asked for 9x http://drakensangonline.wikia.com/wiki/Rune_of_Devastation so I can make wiki articles... you can spot that T3 rune in my staff

Don't believe everything you read



EDIT

=============
longbow+quiver

 

TYVM. I tried test server a couple of times. Last time i was always redirected to a white page with some short msg on top. From that time i gave up.

 

There we go for rangers...

huh, so you mean that the 2 hand bows you get from the new pw drops won't let you use a quiver. That'll ruin many builds
