  • With the villain there is a new class that uses two daggers from which tribement can attack, use tools such as smoke bombs and toxins and provides a combination of high damage tips plus excellent mobility.
  • The tropical region “Turquoise Sea” was expanded, with 8 dungeons, a trading position, fresh events and more.
  • In the “Turquoise Sea” region you will also find a port where you can buy the new caravel ship. This is a ship for up to 8 characters with which you can transport goods and reach the islands of the region. Dungeons and valuable resources await you there.
  • With the integrated potion sling, you can attack other ships or rafts from the ship. You can use this, for example, to brace other groups that bring their prey to safety from the dungeons or want to transport goods across the river.
  • From now on, players can use the new “Node Siege System” to besiege a node from level 3 or higher. The siege offer 100VS100 battles.

    “It’s so cool”

    How does the community evaluate the new update? Especially among the respective announcement videos for the shipping system and the villain class, there was a lot of praise.

  • Vanillinv writes on a villain on YouTube: “It feels like I have been waiting for me for years.”
  • XO1OT1 adds on YouTube: “I like the idea of ​​only having 2 ‘combo points’ that are visible as effects on the hands.”
  • Zach2004 is looking forward to the ships on YouTube: “It’s so cool! Wow, I would not have expected the marine system to come so soon. Go ahead, DEV team, looks great!”
  • A current discussion on Reddit also shows that the tribement of the new villain class is not yet working flawlessly or well. Dreadker describes, for example, that you cannot camouflage yourself as soon as there is even a player character, NPC or a mob within sight of the villain.

    I have already played a lot of villain and forest runners/archers’ archetypes and it [Verstohlenheit, Anmerkung der Redaktion] Has never felt so stupid-I understand that it is an alpha and that will probably be improved/changed, but in the current implementation it is pointless-which is really bad, since the “campaign opening” aspect is often what makes up in rogue style-surprise, massive, fast burst damage and if you do it, you either die away or disappear again in stealth.

    In the following you can look at the approximately 40-minute gameplay from the preview stream for the new ship feature from Ashes of Creation:
