Legendarium Online Pre-Alpha Playtest v0.1.4
📅 Playtest Schedule
August 19 — Closed Playtest
This test is available only to members with the @Pre-Alpha Tester role. Only players who have already received a key will be able to log in.
The goal of this closed phase is to identify previously undetected bugs and technical issues. Version 0.1.4 includes a massive number of updates, so this testing phase is especially important.
Estimated August 30 — Open Playtest for Everyone!
Join the playtest here:
View game page
Simply click “Request Access” to register for the playtest.
Server capacity is limited, so please request access in advance.
📢 Introduction
Our fourth playtest will focus on testing newly added gameplay features and our new cloud-server infrastructure.
We have already received more than 3,000 playtest requests, several times more than during the previous test!
Every player who participates will receive the permanent @Pre-Alpha Tester title and guaranteed access to all future playtests.
📈 Hardware Requirements
There are no specific hardware requirements for this test.
Feel free to try the game on both lower-end and high-end desktop computers. Testing the game on a wide range of hardware will help us identify performance and compatibility issues.
⚙️ Playtest Server Settings

✅ All skill and stat gains are increased by 5x to reduce grinding during the test.
✅ The Vault—bank and private storage—is enabled.

🧙‍♂️ What to Do Next
Once the open playtest begins, click “Request Access.” You should either receive instant access or an email containing your playtest key.
After entering the game, I strongly recommend starting the main quest chain. It begins on the beach with an NPC named Eldric the Shore Warden.
As always, you are welcome to play however you like, including chatting, fighting NPCs, gathering materials, trading, exploring, or even fighting other players.
However, I would especially appreciate your help testing the playtest goals listed below.
👋 Playtest Goals and Permanent Rewards
Complete the main quest chain to receive the unique, non-droppable Legendarium Cloak!
Completing this quest will also permanently unlock the @Lord title. During all future playtests—and after the game’s release—you will receive the Legendarium Cloak when your character begins the game.
The top 50 most-progressed players will receive the permanent @Honorable title.
The top 50 will be selected automatically based on a combination of progression statistics, including:
Highest skill progression
Total wealth
Number of completed quests
Highest Faith value
NPC kills
Player kills
📚 Advanced Tutorial

Additional tutorials will continue to be added before and during the playtest.

Special bonuses of metal based items.
Unique attributes or bonuses granted to items depending on the metal they are forged from.

Iron. No bonuses. Heavy and cheap.
Bronze. Slightly better than Iron (more damage, more armor, same weight, same DEX/INT loss)
Silver. Reduced stats loss. "Demon Slayer" - does extra damage (as Holy damage) to the Demons. Also Demons touching the Silver armor - gets Holy damage.
Gold. Reduced stats loss. Increased damage/armor/etc.
Shadow. Very light plate armor that almost do not reduce stats. Provides less bonuses than other metal of the same tier.
Blood Rock. Heavy. Highest tier in current version. Top damage/armor. **Chance on hit:** - Life Drain.
New player attribute added: Faith.
Faith represent your loyalty to the God that in world of Arda, named as Eru Ilúvatar.
Your Faith drops when you do crimes and increases when you do "good" things.

Faith could be from -10,000 up to +10,000. There is no GUI that represents exact number (on purpose).
Faith from 0 to 10,000 represents an innocent player. Innocent players have their nicknames highlighted with blue color.
Faith from -1000 up to 0 represents a criminal player. Criminals nicknames highlighted with gray color.
Criminal (gray) players constantly getting gains of Faith every few minutes until they justified back to Innocent (blue) Faith levels. Takes from 5 min to 2 hours for full recovery.
Player who hit an innocent (like hitting other player or NPC) - loses Faith. If a player was an innocent he will become a criminal instantly.
Player cannot drop below -1000 Faith when doing minor crimes. Only killing innocents can make him drop below this level.
Faith from -10,000 up to -1000 represent a murderer (aka PK). These players have **red **nicknames.
Murderers (PKs) have reduced rates of Faith recovery. Takes few hours to recover for a single kill.
If a murderer (PK) drops its Faith up to maximum level which is -10,000 Faith - then Faith recovery drops to 0.
Player lose Faith for crimes such as: hitting innocents, killing innocents, looting innocents, stealing from innocents, etc.
Everyone (including other criminals or innocents) may freely attack criminals (gray) players and murderers (red) players. No faith penalties. Including within the town.
Guards do NOT auto attack criminals (gray) players by default. However, NPC or Players may call guards for help typing in to the chat something like "Guards" or "guards" or "guards!!!" , etc.. and if there is a Guard around - he will come and start attacking all the criminals/reds around you.
Guards DO attack murderers(reds) by default, without a need to call for their help.
Player's pets fully represent the owner's Faith level. If innocent tame a horse - the horse become an innocent ("blue") , etc.
If a pet loses Faith (like attacking an innocent) - the owner of the pet gets 100% of Faith loss for his pet.
All the NPC talk differently to innocents, criminals and murderers. Innocent (blue) NPC reject talking with a murderer player (red) and run away, screaming insults and calling guards.
New world object added - "**Shrine** statue". Usually placed in churchs or squares or graveyards. All players may interact with the shrine to start ~30 sec cast "Praying" that has a 5% chance to bless a player and increase his Faith by +500. This works for -10,000 murderers as well.
Praying also has a chance to train Intelligence (INT) stat.
P.s. In next release, players will be getting unique in-game Titles, bonuses and abilities based on their Faith level.

Patch v.0.1.4.4

Weight logic added to the game.
Every single item now has its own weight measured in kilograms.

Total weight is a summary of all the items in Inventory and currently equipped on the character.
Character by default has 10 kg of maximum weight.
Every +1 STR adds 0.5kg of maximum weight that character can carry. 150 of STR provides overall 10kg + 150/2 = 85 kg of maximum weight.
Once the limit reached, you still can get more items but you get a "Overweight" debuff that slows your character significantly and constantly drains the Stamina.
You cannot pickup new items once you reach ~150% of your maximum Total Weight.
New combat skill - Archery.
Now players can equip bows to do range damage. Higher skill increases damage and crit chance as well as opens new Archery abilities.

Inherits all the logics as with hold-to-attack logic.
Dexterity skill increases attack speed while Strength increases damage done.
To shoot, a player needs an ammo (arrows for bows, bolts for crossbows, etc). One shot consumes 1 ammo accordingly.
Quiver automatically equipped when player is equipped with a bow type of weapon. Arrows in the quiver visually represent if you have ammo or not. If no ammo left - the quiver will be empty as well.
New ability added: "Eagle Eye - Enhances your vision, allowing you to see distant targets with incredible clarity and precision while aiming with ranged weapons. Higher skill makes aiming faster." Requires 30% of Archery.
New ability added: " Elven Quickdraw - Significantly boosts your ranged attacking speed." Requires 40% of Archery.

Patch v.0.1.4.3

Combat reworked: Hold-to-attack implementation.
Now you need to hold the attack hotkey and release button when you want the swing landing.

Getting hit from all sources will interrupt the holding process of your attack.
Only "damaging part" of your weapon does damage. Example: The wooden part of a spear would not cause damage, but if the iron tip strikes the target, it would trigger harm to the target.
If you hold an attack longer - you hit harder (with maximum limit per weapon type and Dexterity stat). No GUI tooltip, but player makes relevant sound if hit executed on its maximum hold power.
You lose Stamina while holding an attack, preventing player constantly stay in attacking state. Heavier weapons consumes more Stamina.
New hotkey added that would cancel your attack without losing Stamina and instant animation. That would allow you change the direction of your next attack that increases overall combat potential.
If your hit got parried/deflected/blocked, then you get some quick animation penalty, but enough time for opponent to retaliate.
Items durability implemented.
Now when you use an item - it will be loosing it's durability and eventually become unusable/unequipable unless repaired. Destroyable items help a lot to keep the economic up and make Crafter's life reacher!

There are few durability states now: Pristine, Worn, Damaged, Ruined.
"Ruined" items cannot be used in any way.
If the item got ruined while equipped - it will be automatically unequipped to the inventory. If no slots available - it will be dropped on the ground.
Currently you can repair any metal item (Weapons, armor, etc that made of metal) using the Blacksmithing skill. Repair cost is just 1 ingot of the metal that item made of. During repair, based on the Blacksmithing skill level - there is a chance to completely destroy an item.
"Damaged" weapons do reduced damage.
Now NPCs drop "Damaged/Worn" items more often than "Pristine".
While crafting an item, you always get "Pristine" durability.
Smelting "Ruined" item brings as same amount of ingots as "Pristine", etc.
All the items have different level of total durability capacity.
Weapons lose extra durability when colliding with other weapons. Stronger/heavier weapon takes less durability loss.
Any peace of equipment (shields, armors, weapons, etc) may be one-shot destroyed, if hit by enormous damage (Don't try using low tier shield to block a hit from Mountain Troll or Balrog, etc..).
Armor (protection value) of an item - reduces durability loss. That makes higher tier metals more durable.
