Hubdate

  • Most areas of the hub have been completely changed with the intent to allow players to have actual interaction points for many things that previously only existed in menus.
  • A Welcome Screen board and Adventure Board now appear on the Landing Pad. Interacting with them will open the Welcome screen or the Adventures UI.
  • In front of the Sun Goddess Statue and to the left is a new interaction point for the Store. Right next to the Sun Goddess Statue is the Radiant Merchant.
  • In front of the Sun Goddess Statue and to the right is the Atlas. Right next to the Sun Goddess Statue is a new interaction point for the Claims UI. The Claims interaction point will have a little present floating over it if an item is available to claim.
  • The Club House can be found to the left of the Sun Goddess Statue. A level 1 merchant can be found outside along with a clubit minting machine. 3 Portals for Clubs with Active Heroes can be found inside, along with interaction points for Liked Worlds and Clubs.
  • The Character Corner can be found to the right of the Sun Goddess Statue – inside can be found a barbershop and class changer, along with new interaction points for the character sheet and collections UI.
  • Outside Character Corner can be found the Featured Item Workbench - this workbench, located to the right of the Sun Goddess Statue, features a rotating weekly selection of one collectable. The collectable is displayed above the workbench, and can either be crafted or purchased for credits. The Featured Item Workbench is intended to be a way for new players to find things to craft that are available on other benches!
  • To the left of Character Corner can be found a new interaction point for the Marketplace – buy and sell with other players!
  • To the right of the Landing Pad is the Delve Guild Hall, with a Loot Collector, Personal Chest, and Rejuvenation Station outside. Inside the Delve Guild Hall can be found a Delve portal along with the workbench and merchants.
  • A Geodian Guild Hall can be found below the Delve Guild Hall, with workbenches and a portal to the Geode Hub.
  • To the left of the Landing Pad is the Event Venue. This section of the hub is where all future hub changes for events will appear. A Radiant Dayspring can also be found in this location.
  • Directly behind the Landing Pad can be found the Leaderboard Lounge, with a Chaos Core Crafter, All-purpose Key Mold, Gem Forge, Rejuvenation Station, Personal Chest, Trading Post, and Novice Crafting Bench in front of it. The Leaderboard Lounge has an interaction point for the Leaderboards on the second floor, in the middle of the building’s arch.
  • To the left of the Leaderboard Lounge is Crafter’s Corner, with a Gardening Bench, Runecrafting Bench, Shadowy Station, Snowfest Table, Bunfest Station, Turkeytopia Table, Wheel of Seasons, and Ringcrafting Bench on the first floor. A Crystallogy Station can be found on the second floor.
  • To the right of the Leaderboard Lounge is the Battle Station for all Bomber Royale related needs. To the right of that is a Dragon Crucible.
  • Luxion now appears in the Light’s Den (below the Trove hub) when he lands. Access to the Light’s Den can be found in front of the Crafter’s Corner and Battle Station.
  • (PTS Only) For testing purposes only, the hub has been set to rotate through various seasonal hubs every few days. This is not behavior that will persist in to the live release.

Quests

  • The Expertise section of the Adventures menu has been renamed to Quests
  •  Quests are now designated as main quests (Quebsly’s Quest, Gemsly’s Gem Expertise Quest, Hero’s Geode Topside Quest) or Side Quests (Tomes, Building, Geode Caves, Marketplace)
  •  Trovians are now asked to talk to folks in the hub to pick up their quests. Questgivers show up as main quests are completed. Players who have already started these quests bypass this new requirement.

Main Quests:

  •  The golden thread has been replaced with Quebsly’s Quest to more smoothly guide new players into the game and introduce everyone to the new hub.
  • Qubesly is offering his new quest to all Trovians is and completing Qubesly’s Quest grants a day of Patron, Qubesly first shows up near the base of the Sun Goddess statue and then moves around the hub as players progress in his quest.
  • The Gem’s Expertise Quest is now provided by Gemsly. Gemsly shows up near the Leaderboard Lounge after Qubesly’s Quest is completed. Trovians who have already completed this quest are not asked to complete it again.
  • The Geode Topside Quest is now provided by Hero, from the tutorial. Hero shows up in the Leaderboard Lounge after Gemsly’s Gem Expertise Quest is completed. Trovians who have already completed this quest are not asked to complete it again.

Side Quests:

  • The Tomes Expertise Quest is now provided by Hobbes, the QA Cat. Hobbes shows up in the Crafting Corner library after Qubesly’s Quest is completed. Trovians who have already completed this quest can find Hobbes up in his office and are not asked to complete it again.
  • The Building Expertise Quest is now provided by Bubs the Builder. Bub’s shows up on the Crafting Corner’s Roof after Qubesly’s Quest is completed. Trovians who have already completed this quest are not asked to complete it again.
  • Picking up Amberine’s Geode Caves thread now requires talking to Amberine in the hub. Amberine shows up near the entrance to the Geode Guild Hall once Quebsly’s Quest is completed. Trovians who have already completed this quest are not asked to complete it again.
  • A new quest has been added to teach Trovians about the marketplace. Complete Gemsly’s Gem Expertise Quest to draw Marakeet to the hub. Marakeet shows up near the new Marketplace interactable.
  • Completing Marakeet’s Marketplace quest grants Mark the Mini Marakeet.

New Delve Bosses

  • Two new Delve bosses have been added: the Shadow Hydrakkken and Flakbeard. These bosses are more difficult than normal delve bosses and are only accessible by special Delve gateways found in Pressure Locked Caches.
  •  These gateways always open a Delve at depth 128, and have a high chance for the appearance of either the Shadow Hydrakken or Flakbeard as the boss in the third tier encountered. The Shadow Hydrakken and Flakbeard can also appear in subsequent tiers, although very rarely.
  •  Two new banner styles have been added, with the recipes being dropped rarely from Flakbeard and the Shadow Hydrakken. Once learned, these styles can be created at the Delve Workbench.
  • Pressure Locked Caches can now also drop two new framework recipes – one for Flakbeard’s Head and one for the Shadow Hydrakken’s head.
  • The non-tradable versions of Ferdinand and Ol’ Wobbles can no longer be obtained from Pressure Locked Caches.
  • The Delve Workbench has been adjusted to have all allies under a single category and to add a new “Banner Styles” category.

Delve Minibosses [Public Evaluation]

  • This feature will likely not be present in the launch of the Hubdate, but has been included in this round of testing for public feedback.
  • A new path objective has been added – minibosses.
  • These minibosses will appear as the only creature in a room on the path. They are significantly more difficult than normal enemies found on the path, although still easier to defeat than the actual boss at that depth.

Banner Styles

  • The Banner Equipment slot can now be styled! Deconstruct Delve "Light Banners" to unlock the styles associated with them.
  • Banner slots can now be hidden using a style, just like face and hat equipment.
  • A new collection group has been added for banner styles, the Geode Companion styles were moved into the combat group
