    Dear Heroes of Dracania,

    This release is all about equipment and PvE changes. We have started to revisit all boss fights and updated not only the graphical effects in order to increase the readability and to provide a more coherent look but also the skills, values and boss immunity. This comes together with an update of unique and legendary equipment drop chances to reflect the bigger challenges, especially on higher difficulties. A big change is that all your skill debuffs do now also have an effect on the biggest threats of Dracania and if some of them are immune to a specific type of effect, it is visualized in their health bar. Another part of the release is the first part of the PvE Equipment Update featuring the first set of cloaks/banners, new crafting methods and some new enchantments. And last but not least, we have updated our event window and added some new features to it including the possibility to see upcoming events.

    We hope you enjoy the new release.

    Dear Heroes,

    Please note that the team is aware of the following issues:​
    • Augment core crafting with cloaks is displaying a grey template item as result/ This display issue is known and will be fixed with Release 221.
