Greetings, Guildies!
The journey that began in the humble corners of Respite is nearing its most epic milestone yet. As we prepare for the final stretch, we want to take a moment to thank our incredible Early Access supporters. Your feedback has been invaluable and has truly shaped the soul of this world. Today we are thrilled to give you a first look at Update 0.7, arriving this March. This is our final major step before we set sail for the full release of Version 1.0. In this update, the main quest continues by moving even further forward... or perhaps we should say back.
🕰️ A Step Back in Time: The Siege of Respite
The main quest continues as you seek the guidance of the Magus Temporalis, Thevyre. Within his sanctum, you will be tasked with a feat of chronomancy: traveling 150 years into the past. Experience Respite Island as it once was during the height of the invasion by House Mazan. You will find yourself at the gates of the legendary Elven Castle at the exact moment it falls under siege.
The Shard of Hydromancy: Your objective is to secure the ancient Elven relic required to navigate the raging Maelstrom and finally unlock the path toward the Isles of Mystshade.
Shape the Future: Interact with the key figures of the invasion and help determine their destiny. The decisions you make in this era will ripple forward and affect your own time.
⚔️ Trials of the Past
The battles within this expansion represent a significant new challenge. You will face an Ancient King, elven Royal Guards, Siege Constructs, and Soul Bending Sorcerers. These encounters require your absolute best preparation. Now is the time to lean heavily into your Cooking, Alchemy, and Fletching skills. Make sure your inventory is stocked with the finest gear and consumables you have gathered and crafted during your journey. These fights are designed to test your tactical depth, so come prepared for a challenge.
🌟 New Talents and Skills
With Update 0.7, character progression is taking a major leap forward.
This update introduces over 50 new talents and skills, dramatically expanding the ways you can shape your party and approach combat.
