Summertime Hub
Beach style hub with cornerstone islands surrounded by water
Dragons
- New Old Blue Dragon Pup Ally: (-8% incoming damage, reduces cooldown time by 10%, Damaging enemies has a chance to blast them with fire)
- Fledgling is the first stage, functions as a mount
- Adult dragon
- Glides but moves slower than wings (90 vs 95) and are less maneuverable
- Slower descent
- Pulling back on dragon can allow better hovering than wings
- Legendary Dragon
- Shoots fireballs!
- Can blow up lairs and dungeons
- Dragon Souls
- Consume to unlock rewards
- First soul unlocks pet
- Five souls unlocks fledgling
- Fifteen souls for adult
- Thirty souls for legendary
- Achieving final tier (40 souls) will unlock permanent stat bonuses (“Dragon Spirit”)
- Dragon souls also craftable (1 Dragon Coin, 3 Dragon Essences, 1 Golden Soul, 50 Glacial Shards)
Radiant Gear
- Shadow 4 -> Shadow 5 -> Radiant
- Stat gain is greater than before
- New Radiant Aura effects on weapons (Lightning, Magic, Fire, Undead, Frost, more may come)
- Reroll VFX using glim at the advanced forge (75 glim)
- Shadow 4 to Shadow 5: 2 Quad-Forged Shadow Souls
- Shadow 5 to Radiant Tier (prices may change?):
- Each Shadow 5 forge level requires 500 flux + 60 eyes
- Needs 3 Penta-Forged Shadow Souls + 3 Purifying Dragon Flames to upgrade from Shadow 5 to Radiant
- Penta-Forged Souls can be obtained by deconstructing Shadow 5 gear OR are a rare drop from dragon caches (obtained from challenges), Purifying Dragon Flame is crafted (1 Dragon Coin, 30 Primordial Flame, 200 Radiant Shards)
- Each Radiant forge level requires 1000 flux, 70 eyes, and 1 Purifying Dragon Flame
