In this free content update we introduce our first "Brutal mode" dungeon. Beware, this dungeon is extremely challenging but with great struggle comes great rewards. The limit to all core stats in the game has finally been increased so players can go beyond and battle these new challenges. Ascension has been buffed, now rewards triple stats. We also bring great news regarding "Divine Ring of Karion" also known as "the one and only ring to rule them all" can now become very powerful again with enchanting. It is probably the best ring in the game. Enjoy!
