Digital X's Celtic Creation



Digital X's Celtic Creation

Visit Oz in Central Station to begin an epic new quest courtesy of Digital X: Celtic Conditioning. After you've warmed up, you'll need to travel throughout Delta V to claim your ultimate prize: Digital X's Replica Bot. Only a limited quantity will be available so, in this case, a quick duelist is a lucky duelist!

Santa's Snowy Souvenir

If you were lucky enough to claim Digital X's replica, there are still more treats awaiting you in this update! Visit the lonely level 1 City Guard in Central Station to undertake a mission to claim GodOfSanta Azrael's Bane Replica! Be warned: he won't give up the sword without a fight...many, many fights! This mission will only be available for a week, so you'll need to work quickly to part the lonesome guard from his treasure.

Coming Soon: Roman's Inferno

Releasing these gifting prizes through quests and limited shops have been extremely popular, and we're not done yet! Next week, a major threat will emerge from the Afterlife that will require defeating a very old, very powerful entity. The challenge will be great, but the prizes will be greater!


Core Location Changes

For the sake of consistency with vendor locations between Credit and Varium-only cores, several Minor cores have been relocated from the Vendbot to the same NPC as the Varium version. Also, because cores are so integral to maintaining a competitive strategy, seasonal cores will be available all year as limited quantity cores!

Core Changes

It seems Delta V's grenades needed a bit more "punch"! These buffs should improve the viability of Varium and Credit versions of the grenade/bomb cores.

Crystal Grenade x25:
Varium version: 40% ? 50% energy drain
Credit version: 25% ? 40% energy drain

Short Circuit Grenade x25:
Varium version: 100% ? 115% initial damage
Credit version: 75% ? 105% initial damage

Stalagrenade x25:
Varium version: 25% ? 30% defense ignore; 10% ? 15% crit chance
Credit version: 15% ? 20% defense ignore; 10% ? 15% crit chance

Hammer Grenade x25:
Varium version: 2 ? 3 turn armor removal; 85% ? 100% initial damage
Credit version: 2 ? 3 turn armor removal; 60% ? 85% initial damage

Magma Grenade x25:
Varium version: Match strength of Necrosis (2.4)
Credit version: Match previous strength of Varium version (1.5)

Om Nom Bomb:
Varium version: 35% ? 60% lifesteal
Credit version: 20% ? 50% lifesteal

In addition to changing grenades, we've also adjusted a core in Titan's promo.

Titan's Shroud:
The core was designed to increase the resistance to Deflection damage, but this was overtuned. The damage reduction on Deflections was decreased.

Quality of Life:

After a long absence, the Player Ignore feature has been restored to the player stats panel. You can use this to select another player and avoid seeing their chat in game. This should be helpful for dealing with spammers without enabling the "Mute All Chat" feature in the Settings menu. One limitation of this feature is that this will only last for a single online session -- logging out will reset the list and previously ignored players will need to be ignored again if they are encountered again.
