    DarkLegacy update removed outdated gears and changed the whole game. There was a little compensation for it where you got some leg. gear bags, but those mightve been expired by now.

    If you want to keep playing, find a group and leech a bit to get some gears.

    Hello @jozo91 ,

    As @FAALHAAS said, there was an update that deleted outdated legacy items. You can read more about it here.
    The "Welcome back chest" should be waiting for you in your inventory.

    Hope this helps.
    Good luck! :)

    Honestly, it's fun to redo all the equipment but I don't know if in a few months or a year they won't reset everything again ...
    A tip if you don't want to waste unnecessary time in your life and become an automaton find other less dated, boring and repetitive games.
    Worse than in their regulation they do not have vexatious clauses and above all to the detriment of the players:
    you have lost months of gambling and so for years and no one has ever given you a fair form of compensation.

    Your gear was converted to Glyphs of Power, which show up in the currency bag in the upper left-hand corner of the display.

    In the new game, GoP are used to transfer enchantments from any type of gear to any other piece of equipment. And platinum enchantment lines are pretty easy to come by.

    Devs didn't think through the DL release. The new enchantment transfer crafting is a positive, but more so for players who were either still active and already OP or who are starting a fresh character.

    As a returning player with a naked toon, you'll probably need to slum in lower level dungeons a bit to get some starter gear, then build up toward dungeons closer to your toon XP rank, looking for platinum lines and using the GoP you have on hand to transfer the enchantments frequently to gear with better base lines. Don't assume you'll hang onto gear for more than a few XP levels before moving on to the next random junk with slightly better base stats. (I'm hoping you had enough gear to have a decent starting amount of GoP ... in the 10's if not 100's of million units range. Transfer crafting gets increasingly more expensive as you rise in XP levels.)

    Problem here is that drop rates of gear plummeted; if you decide to give the game one more shot, pretty much just go for boss rooms on Normal difficulty at first, then jump to Painful when you can (again, this assumes you had some Keys of Prowess hanging around to open the boss rooms ... if not, you'll have to tediously clear mobs to get to the floor Sentinel to get the Key to open the Boss room) as the drop quantity and quality is night and day compared to even Champion and Sentinel mobs (you'll get gear, gems, essence, wisdom, etc., from the Boss, probably nothing from Champions, and maybe 1 or 2 items from the Sentinels).

    There is a path forward for you, it just will suck for awhile.

    I be the last one to say Dark Legacy update was a succes, since i still have hard time adapting to it, but not everything is bad. If you on heredur, i dont mind taking you with me so you can drop gears.
    And not that it matters; ive played plenty of games where i returned where they nerved or removed items when i returned after inactivity...so drakensang isnt really alone in that regard.
