The New Spring Event: Upgrading the Nian Beast
We adjusted the growth of the Nian Beasts.
New creatures:
1. Crystal Nian Beast
2. Auspicious Nian Beast
New item: Fantasy Nian beast's Egg
Crystal Nian Beast and Auspicious Nian Beast are new rare Nian beasts that look like Mini Nian Beasts. They can’t be released in Nian Beast Altar, but as resources for releasing Nian Beasts, exiling them gives players a large amount of Anima.
Decreased the required amount of Nian Beasts for releasing Nian Beasts and Ice Nian Beasts. Higher level Nian Beasts now require Crystal Nian Beasts and Auspicious Nian Beasts to release to next stage.
The Crystal Nian Beast and Auspicious Nian Beast can be hatched from all kinds of Nian’s Eggs with low possibility.
The Fantasy Nian Beast’s Egg is a rare loot of the King of Nian Beasts and only hatch Crystal Nian Beasts or Auspicious Nian Beasts.
Slightly increased the possibility for the King of Nian Beast to drop Ice Nian Beast’s Egg.
Decreased the Anima cost for upgrading Nian Beasts.
Note: There’s no adjustments on the difficulty of releasing a Nian Beast in this update.
Environment Adjustments:
We added some decorative trees to the Grassland.
Removed the Blood-sucking Mosquitos at the edges of the desert: now they only spawn deep in the desert.
