Fury

Unleash fury on the forces of shadow as Crystal Combat comes to consoles on February 5, 2019! Along with the introduction of Uber 10 adventure worlds on Geode’s topside, we’re also bringing an all-new, two-week long event, Subterranean Scramble.

Geode’s Topside
This massive Trove update lets players go on the offensive against the powerful shadowy invaders that have been wreaking havoc on Geode’s surface. These new combat zones cover Uber difficulty levels 8-10 and introduce three brand-new biomes: Cerise Sandsea, Hollow Dunes, and Weathered Wasteland.

Explore huge 5-star dungeons and trigger the Dark Hearts within to unleash a torrent of enemies that want to lay waste to all who stand in their way. Take them down quickly and earn extra rewards!

There are two new stats introduced in Crystal Combat: Light and Dark. Light is a stat found on Crystal gear while Dark exists exclusively on the enemies on Geode. Without the Light stat, you’ll find it virtually impossible to defeat enemies bathed in Dark.

Crystal Rarity
This new item rarity can be found on hats, faces, and weapons in the loot chests from defeating dungeon bosses on Geode’s surface!

Subterranean Scramble
During this event, Trovians will work on behalf of Diggsly to find out what happened to his shadow. Earn Diggsly’s Tokens by doing repeatable daily adventures and exchange them for new goodies!

Gems
We’re very excited to give everyone a chance to discover the changes coming to Gems. A few highlights include removing the cracking mechanic so Gems will never break when upgrading; a new Gem Augment called Contained Chaos Flare; an all-new Gem type called Cosmic Gems!

Cosmic Gems will not replace your existing Gems. Instead, they provide new stats and abilities.

To help players learn how to best utilize Gems as they level, we’re also adding a new Expertise Thread that can be accessed via the Adventures menu.

Dragons
With Crystal Combat players will discover two new dragons:

• Jhorondir, Arms of the Goddess[/*]

• Phyconidia, Sower of the Sandsea[/*]

Trove – Crystal Combat gives every Trovian a chance to grow more powerful than they could have ever imagined!

To herald the arrival of open beta, Trove’s very own Brian (aka Grump) and Adam (aka Decoy) got in front of the camera and regaled the YouTubes… while in searing pain. Check out Trove’s Hot Pepper Gaming fire sale and witness the four-minute, sweaty, tear-filled attempt to describe of the majesty of Trove, after consuming habanero peppers.

“The HPG experience was terrible and awesome, it felt like a bomb went off in my nervous system but having Brian suffering next to me made the whole thing hilarious. My various insides and outsides hurt for like 48 hours after the fact, but if they wanted us back I might… MIGHT take a run at the dreaded Bhut Jolokia. But only if Brian did too”
- Adam

“My experience with HPG was basically like voluntarily burning my insides with dry ice. It was hot, like vision quest hot. Every now and then my brain would emerge from the molten lake long enough to utter something that resembled facts and to recognize Adam physically bursting into plasma in the seat next to me. Then the pain lingered for half a day in my stomach until it mercifully ended with a fury similar to its entry. I would do it again for any one of our games in a heartbeat.
- Brian
