And now let's take a closer look at some points.
MAGIC FOREST
New region stretches to the west of Enthor. It is a forest area with lakes and rivers, surrounded by mountains. Once there was a great battle between the wizards of Angalar, and it changed the forest forever. On territory of the forest there are ancient fortresses, magic towers, ruins of an ancient empire and entrance to mysterious catacombs! You can get into the Magic Forest by crossing the river in the Expanse.
NEW ENEMIES
The magic-soaked forest is guarded by Sorceresses - allies of Angalar, and Scarecrows - man-made constructs, inside of which an evil spirit has settled. Keep in mind that these enemies are more dangerous than those that you have met in the Expanse. The magic of agile Sorceresses can set the adventurer on fire with magic fire, and Scarecrows, not being living creatures, are in no hurry to die, and their blades can cause blood loss!
WORLD WITHOUT BORDERS
In the new update, the notorious invisible walls that limit the space available to players have been removed. In their place came various obstacles and rocks, and the game world has become even bigger! Of course, work on the landscape will continue in future updates.
Have fun! Your Silent.
