New Features


  • New Zone: The Avalask! Explore an all-new zone with hundreds of new quests! Visit the city of Neverfall, and discover what darkness lurks beneath the ancient lands of the Light Empire! Level 100 players at Mirage Sky I can start the quests to enter the Avalask in the Universal City.
  • New Esteem Levels: Havoc and Divine! Beyond the paths of Immortal and Demon lies a new way, combining the strengths of each into a single, powerful path of Esteem! Players who have completed the Atlas of Time questline in the Avalask will receive a quest to speak to either Ghost Warden or the Cunning Immortal to begin their new path.
  • New Dungeon: Dawnlight Temple! Delve into the dark sanctum of the Future of Mankind Initiative and put a stop to their unnatural experimentations! Includes more difficult Judgment and Deicide Modes. Requires Havoc Esteem and Twilight Sky I to enter.
  • New Feature: Skill Glyph Function.

It also has a unique loot table that rotates regularly and allows more control over what items the player can possibly win.Using the Treasure System requires the use of Lucky Keys. The player can get these by purchasing Fortune Keys from the Item Mall and then exchanging them for Lucky Keys at Trade Deputy Wang Cai, located next to the Bank Owner in major cities. It is recommended to purchase Fortune Keys while they are on sale, as they go on sale frequently.

SKILLS


  • Each class has ten skills that can be upgraded; 5 at Havoc, and 5 at Divine. Glyphs can only be attached to upgraded skills.
  • Each upgrade skill has one of three glyph bonuses – Martial Prowess, Tiger’s Rage, or Dragon’s Fury. Upon attaching glyphs to six different skills, you will get bonus damage against other players based on whichever bonus is most common among your glyphed skills. Town Portal has no glyph type.
  • Low-level Glyphs can be combined into higher-level glyphs, which improve the skills’ bonuses and grant you additional stats.

Players can access their Glyphs by pressing the R key in-game and bringing up the skills window. On the right, there are two tabs, one of which opens the Glyph menu. On the left of the Glyph menu, players can see the list of skills that can use Glyphs. Hovering over the Glyph Effect gems will display the full skill description of each Glyph effect. On the right, players can see the Glyph Slots. Once unlocked, players can drag and drop their desired Glyphs and skills into the slots. Beneath the Glyph slots, there is a Glyph Bag where players can store their Glyphs.

A player can equip up to three Glyphs at any given time if they have completed their Havoc Esteem and up to six Glyphs if they have completed their Divine Esteem. Skills and Glyphs can be changed any time so long as the player is not in combat mode.

New players can unlock their very first Glyph slot in the Celestial Vale and are able to use Glyphs on their Town Portal skill. Veteran players can unlock their first Glyph slot in the Western Steppes by completing the quest given by the Glyph Master of Mercy, an NPC located outside the City Hall of Neverfall.

Subsequent Glyph slots can be unlocked by doing quests received from the rest of the Glyph Master NPCs, located outside the City Hall of Neverfall. The list of the NPCs is the following:

Glyph Master of Honor for the second Glyph slot quest
Glyph Master of Courage for the third Glyph slot quest
Glyph Master of Modesty for the fourth Glyph slot quest
Glyph Master of Loyalty for the fifth Glyph slot quest
Glyph Master of Sincerity for the sixth Glyph slot quest

Once a quest has been completed, the player with receive an item which they have to right-click and the Glyph slot will be unlocked. Players can also buy Glyph slot items from the NPCs by paying 10,000,000 Yuan, but it is recommended to do the quests so the slots can be unlocked for free.
