Discover Delves: A highly anticipated dungeon crawler feature filled with new monsters, biomes, and treasures as you dive deep to face unique challenges that lurk below! The Trove Delves update is now available across all platforms (PS4, Xbox 1, and PC).

Delves are new, endless dungeon experiences that you and your group will have to overcome obstacles, enemies, and time constraints in order to open your exciting rewards! The Delve difficulty comes customly catered towards the daring Trovians in each Delve.

Race against the clock to clear the bee-infested caverns of The Hive or the crate-laden, pirate-haunted caves of Flakbeard's Hideaway to take yourselves to deeper depths! Rescue Geodians, craft battle flags from the times of yore, and stop the corrupted bosses from all across Trove from breaking out of the Delves.

Each Delve comes with its own set of rules, defined by Deltaliths. These Deltaliths represent anything from additional HP on individual enemies to locking you to one jump, ensuring that the challenges below are different from the ones above!

The process is simple: queue up, drop in, slay enemies, survive the boss and net yourself some sick loot. Do this within the time limit and you’ll be allowed to open the portal to the next floor, where a deeper and more difficult Delve awaits you!

Delves
• Delves are a new type of gameplay, combining the Geode caves with procedurally generated endless combat! Run through a Delve, complete the objectives, and then defeat the boss quickly for rewards and the opportunity to keep going deeper! As the Depth increases, so do the challenges and the rewards.
• There are 3 kinds of Delves – Public Delves, Private Delves, and Challenge Delves, each with their own set of rules.
• Once queued for a Delve of any type, the player will stay queued even after going to another world (there will be a bright delve “idea” glowing overhead and a delve queue icon under the HP bar as a reminder.)
• Players who log out while queued will be unqueued.
• Up to eight players total can enter any Delve. In Private Delves players can be invited after the Delve has started, but in Public and Challenge Delves players can only rejoin if they were part of the original Delve queue.
• Delves allow players to use their modules from the geode caves as well as engaging in combat – unlike adventure worlds where players switch between combat and build mode, in Delves players switch between combat and discovery mode.
o The final rank of Path Painter upgrade only applies in the Geode Caves.
o The Shield Barrier has different behavior in Geode Caves and in Delves. In Delves it:
Lasts 60+ seconds (scales as it is upgraded)
Reduces incoming damage by 15-35%
Combines with a level 6+ Vaca-matic if also equipped, allowing the shield to pull in enemies when struck while active
o The Thumper rank 7 upgrade also causes it to make Delve enemies visible through walls.
• Delves are dangerous, and death matters! Each time a Trovian dies, they must wait 5+ seconds before they can release. This time increases each time the Trovian dies. This timer is reset each time a boss is reached, and has no impact on how long it takes to resurrect other players.
• Releasing in a Delve will return the player to the beginning of that Tier.
• An "Intra-Delve Transport"--conveniently placed at the beginning of each Delve Tier--can be interacted with to transport a player to the forward-most checkpoint in the Delve.
• Clearing any room of all its enemies in a Delve Tier will make it a checkpoint, as indicated by a shaded-in blue background on the Delve-room display (where the compass is normally).
• When a boss is activated, any players still working their way through the path to the lair will be offered a teleport to the lair room to join in the fight. If the prompt is missed (possibly due to food delivery!), the player might miss out on the loot but will still teleport you to the group in deeper depths.
• Delves have modifiers signified by Deltaliths, visible in the first room and in the lair room. There are many of these modifiers, including ones that make enemies only take damage in melee range, have reduced health and take extra damage, increase or reduce their Darkness stat, and many more.
• Deltaliths at the entrance of Delves will appear next to the trophy of the enemy they affect.
• Delve themed Adventures can be found in the Delve building in the hub as well as occasionally after a delve level is completed.
• Delves are themed around existing biomes with a few surprises.
• The hive delves introduce a new liquid, honey! Honey increases health regen for players who stand in it, but will also dismount and slow down movement. (There are no fish that can survive in honey – it’s the birds and the bees, not the fish and the bees.)
• Before the Cursed Skulls will spawn in a given Delve Tier, players must complete an objective such as defeating a certain number of enemies, gathering Crystals, or gathering Ore,
• A boss trophy appears before every Boss Lair to give a quick indication of what boss players will be facing. The lair will also have Deltaliths indicating what challenges will accompany the boss.
• If the boss is reached and defeated fast enough, a Ready Station will appear. Interact with it and stay close by to speed up how fast the portal to the next level will appear!
• If the team took too long to reach or defeat the boss, a sign will appear and not allow access to the next delve level. Don’t worry – the next delve is always just a queue away.
• Flasks automatically refill once the boss is summoned and at the start of each new Delve Tier.
• Pell is available after the lair boss is defeated to allow players to switch between modules. Other NPCs and helpful adventuring objects might also appear after the boss is defeated.
• Expert Delvers may learn to spot signs in the Delve path that will indicate which way leads to the lair – it can be easy to get turned around in the middle of combat. Note that while these indicators are useful, some harder delves may have this indicator removed.
• Only 78 consecutive depths can be completed in a single delve run; upon reaching the 78th consecutive depth players will receive a message asking them to restart the delve and not allowing them to progress further.
• Stealthed Neon Ninjas can walk through the Blocky Components present in the Neon Underground delve biome.

Public Delves
• To enter a Public Delve, find the Public Delve Queue Portal in the hub where the Bomber Royale building used to be located, then just interact with the portal to enter the queue. The maximum amount of time spent in the queue should be no more than 10 minutes. Interact with the portal again at any time to unqueue from the public delve.
• A Delve entrance can also be found in the Geode hub down by the Geode cave portals.
• The difficulty of Public Delves is determined by the Public Delve Score for the queued class of each player that ends up in the Delve group.
• When queuing for a public delve, be aware that only the class active when queuing will be allowed. Private and Challenge Delves allow switching between classes at any time.
• The Bomber Royale portal is still available in the hub – look for it and the merchants in a small tent near where they used to be located.
• /joinme can be used to reinvite players who may have disconnected, but cannot be used to invite new players into a Public Delve.

Private Delves
• The difficulty of Private Delves is determined by the Public Delve Score for the queued classes at the time the Delve starts.
• A “Delve Gateway (Private)” – craftable at the Delve Workbench in the hub – can be placed anywhere, but once placed anyone can use it to register for that Delve.
• A single Gateway can be placed while in build mode. Placing the Gateway will automatically queue the player for the Private Delve. Up to seven more players can use the placed Gateway to be queued with the owner.
• The owner of a Private Delve Gateway can interact with it to proceed; the first interaction will send a message to all queued players to get ready, and the second interaction will rush the queue and send everyone in to the Delve. If at any time a full set of eight players are queued, the Gateway will immediately trigger and force everyone in to the Delve.
• If a Gateway is broken using the mining laser, it will return to the destroyer’s inventory and unqueue all queued players. If at any point there are no players nearby, it will unqueue everyone and destroy itself.
• Private Delves allow players to change their class at will.
• The /joinme command can be used to invite more players (up to a maximum of eight unique players can join a single Delve).
• Note that Private Delves are much stricter on what items and mounts can be used. Only Delve mounts and wings may be used.

Challenge Delves
• Challenge Delves are a fair playing field for all teams of delvers to compete against each other to see who can go furthest.
• “Delve Gateway (Challenge Mode)” and “Delve Gateway (Challenge Easy)” can both be crafted at the Delve Workbench in the hub.
• In standard Delves, every new Depth gives you a random Biome. You may find bees at Depth 110 in one Delve, and the Neon Underground at Depth 110 in another Delve. A “new” “Depth 110” is generated each time you visit a Depth 110 Public or Private Delve. In Challenge Delves, though, Depth 110 is only generated once each week, and all players must compete against the same monsters, the same objectives, and the same bosses to see who can get the Deepest, and who can do so the Fastest.
• Challenge Delves start at Depth 110.
• Any time a group successfully moves past a floor in Challenge Mode, the Challenge Delve Depth is saved. Every time a “Delve Gateway (Challenge Mode)” is placed it starts at the saved Challenge Delve Depth. “Delve Gateway (Challenge Easy)” always opens at Depth 110.
• At the end of the week, each player's achieved challenge depth will decay by 8, but will never drop below 110.
• Leaderboards will track not only the deepest depths, but also which group cleared any 3 consecutive tiers in the fastest time. The purple name is now associated with the top 100 players who reach the deepest challenge depths.
• Class switching is allowed in Challenge Delves, but only players who were in the original queue can join or be invited.
• Only Delve mounts or wings may be used.

Delve Rewards
• After defeating the Boss, a Pressurized Chest will appear! Every 3rd consecutive Tier this will be a Heavy Pressurized Chest with additional loot.
• After Depth 25, when a Heavy Pressurized Chest appears, a Shadowy Soul Vault will also appear, containing special rewards like Titan Souls, Lunar Souls, Despoiled Divinity, and Shadow Caches.
• A Delve Shadowkey is required to open the Shadowy Soul Vault. Delve Shadowkeys can be crafted at the Delve Workbench in the hub or at the Shadow Key Mold that appears within the Boss Lair after the Boss is defeated.
• Shadowy Soul Vaults can be opened an unlimited number of times, but players will only receive Titan Souls, Lunar Souls, and Despoiled Divinity from the first 6 Shadowy Soul Vaults opened each week.
• Shadowy Soul Vaults will only appear on specified depths in challenge delves after the completion of at least 3 consecutive depths.
• Binding Darkness can be found in chests and additionally has a small chance to drop from enemies in Delves.
• Shadow Shards are now available from picking up the crystals inside of delves after a certain depth.
• A new currency – Inert Geodes – can be acquired inside the Delves. Only a certain amount of this currency can be obtained at any given time, so make sure to use it before hitting the cap!
• The currency cap for Inert Geodes can be increased by obtaining an Inert Geode Wallet. Three wallets are available: two on Rokatan, the large merchant in the Delve building in the hub and a third on the Store under the “Geode” tab.
• Inert Geodes can be used to purchase mounts and wings that will work in Private and Challenge Delves or to craft a variety of objects at the Delve Workbench.
• "Pressure-Locked Delve Caches" can be purchased for Inert Geodes from a Geodian merchant trapped within Delves - open them to find exciting new Delve-related goodies! They can also be obtained as drops from Heavy Pressurized Chests, as a reward for donating Inert Geodes, and occasionally sold or exchanged for other Delve related goods.
• New delve recipes for advanced tracking potions can be found on Geodian Merchants that are also trapped within Delves. Trapped Geodians are freed occasionally when defeating Delve Lair Bosses.
• A new type of collectible can be found in Delves – Mementos. Each Memento grants mastery and is based on the enemies encountered in the Delve Tier.
• Mementos decay after 3 hours of online time if they are not learnt, but can be deconstructed in to Pressure-Locked Delve Caches.
• New Banners can be obtained through Delves. These banners can be crafted by combining poles, flags, and Inert Geodes at the Delve Workbench in the Hub.
• Decorative versions of these banners can also be obtained for players who want to decorate their cornerstones and club worlds. These recipes are sold by Pebble traders found when defeating Delve Lair Bosses.
• In addition to the Light Banners craftable at the Delve Workbench, for those with Enchanted Seasinew Torches or Enshadowed Tendril Torches, new recipes to upgrade these items can be found on the Sunseeker's Crystalforge in Geode Topside. These new upgrades can be deconstructed back in to the Enchanted Seasinew Torch or Enshadowed Tendril Torch.
• Delve allies can be rarely found in appropriate biomes within Delves or crafted at the Delve Workbench.
• Some of the Shadow Tower bosses have crept in to Delves and in the process have picked up some new mounts! Hydrakken has been unable to move his wall underground, but the others can occasionally be found. Daughter of the Moon has acquired 3 new mounts, while Pinata God, Spikewalker, and Weeping Prophet have all acquired 1 new mount.
• In addition to Crystal gear, Delves is the only place where Crystal 4 is available, but only for the most intrepid and hardened of explorers!
• Delves also give 6 badges for completion of Public, Private, and Challenge delves.

Vaca-matic Module
• The Vaca-Matic, a new module, is now craftable at the Module Workbench. The Vaca-matic sucks in nearby crystals in Geode Caves and nearby enemies in Delves.

Dive ever-deeper as you unearth new biomes and treasures in this exciting new feature: Delves!

This new and endless-dungeon experience sets you loose on countless caves full of enemies and obstacles at a difficulty custom catered to you and your group.

Race against the clock to clear the bee-infested caverns of The Hive or the crate-laden, pirate-haunted caves of Flakbeard's Hideaway to take yourselves to deeper depths! Rescue Geodians, craft battle flags from the times of yore, and stop the corrupted bosses from all across Trove from breaking out of the Delves.

Each Delve comes with its own set of rules, defined by Deltaliths. These Deltaliths represent anything from additional HP on individual enemies to locking you to one jump, ensuring that the challenges below are different from the ones above!

The process is simple: queue up, drop in, slay enemies, survive the boss and net yourself some sick loot. Do this within the time limit and you’ll be allowed to open the portal to the next floor, where a deeper and more difficult Delve awaits you!

Delves
• Delves are a new type of gameplay, combining the Geode caves with procedurally generated endless combat! Run through a Delve, complete the objectives, and then defeat the boss quickly for rewards and the opportunity to keep going deeper! As the Depth increases, so do the challenges and the rewards.
• There are 3 kinds of Delves – Public Delves, Private Delves, and Challenge Delves, each with their own set of rules.
• Once queued for a Delve of any type, the player will stay queued even after going to another world (there will be a bright delve “idea” glowing overhead and a delve queue icon under the HP bar as a reminder.)
• Players who log out while queued will be unqueued.
• Up to eight players total can enter any Delve. In Private Delves players can be invited after the Delve has started, but in Public and Challenge Delves players can only rejoin if they were part of the original Delve queue.
• Delves allow players to use their modules from the geode caves as well as engaging in combat – unlike adventure worlds where players switch between combat and build mode, in Delves players switch between combat and discovery mode.
o The final rank of Path Painter upgrade only applies in the Geode Caves.
o The Shield Barrier has different behavior in Geode Caves and in Delves. In Delves it:
 Lasts 60+ seconds (scales as it is upgraded)
 Reduces incoming damage by 15-35%
 Combines with a level 6+ Vaca-matic if also equipped, allowing the shield to pull in enemies when struck while active
o The Thumper rank 7 upgrade also causes it to make Delve enemies visible through walls.
• Delves are dangerous, and death matters! Each time a Trovian dies, they must wait 5+ seconds before they can release. This time increases each time the Trovian dies. This timer is reset each time a boss is reached, and has no impact on how long it takes to resurrect other players.
• Releasing in a Delve will return the player to the beginning of that Tier.
• An "Intra-Delve Transport"--conveniently placed at the beginning of each Delve Tier--can be interacted with to transport a player to the forward-most checkpoint in the Delve.
• Clearing any room of all its enemies in a Delve Tier will make it a checkpoint, as indicated by a shaded-in blue background on the Delve-room display (where the compass is normally).
• When a boss is activated, any players still working their way through the path to the lair will be offered a teleport to the lair room to join in the fight. If the prompt is missed (possibly due to food delivery!), the player might miss out on the loot but will still teleport you to the group in deeper depths.
• Delves have modifiers signified by Deltaliths, visible in the first room and in the lair room. There are many of these modifiers, including ones that make enemies only take damage in melee range, have reduced health and take extra damage, increase or reduce their Darkness stat, and many more.
• Deltaliths at the entrance of Delves will appear next to the trophy of the enemy they affect.
• Delve themed Adventures can be found in the Delve building in the hub as well as occasionally after a delve level is completed.
• Delves are themed around existing biomes with a few surprises.
• The hive delves introduce a new liquid, honey! Honey increases health regen for players who stand in it, but will also dismount and slow down movement. (There are no fish that can survive in honey – it’s the birds and the bees, not the fish and the bees.)
• Before the Cursed Skulls will spawn in a given Delve Tier, players must complete an objective such as defeating a certain number of enemies, gathering Crystals, or gathering Ore,
• A boss trophy appears before every Boss Lair to give a quick indication of what boss players will be facing. The lair will also have Deltaliths indicating what challenges will accompany the boss.
• If the boss is reached and defeated fast enough, a Ready Station will appear. Interact with it and stay close by to speed up how fast the portal to the next level will appear!
• If the team took too long to reach or defeat the boss, a sign will appear and not allow access to the next delve level. Don’t worry – the next delve is always just a queue away.
• Flasks automatically refill once the boss is summoned and at the start of each new Delve Tier.
• Pell is available after the lair boss is defeated to allow players to switch between modules. Other NPCs and helpful adventuring objects might also appear after the boss is defeated.
• Expert Delvers may learn to spot signs in the Delve path that will indicate which way leads to the lair – it can be easy to get turned around in the middle of combat. Note that while these indicators are useful, some harder delves may have this indicator removed.

Public Delves
• To enter a Public Delve, find the Public Delve Queue Portal in the hub where the Bomber Royale building used to be located, then just interact with the portal to enter the queue. The maximum amount of time spent in the queue should be no more than 10 minutes. Interact with the portal again at any time to unqueue from the public delve.
• A Delve entrance can also be found in the Geode hub down by the Geode cave portals.
• The difficulty of Public Delves is determined by the Public Delve Score for the queued class of each player that ends up in the Delve group.
• When queuing for a public delve, be aware that only the class active when queuing will be allowed. Private and Challenge Delves allow switching between classes at any time.
• The Bomber Royale portal is still available in the hub – look for it and the merchants in a small tent near where they used to be located.
• /joinme can be used to reinvite players who may have disconnected, but cannot be used to invite new players into a Public Delve.

Private Delves
• The difficulty of Private Delves is determined by the Public Delve Score for the queued classes at the time the Delve starts.
• A “Delve Gateway (Private)” – craftable at the Delve Workbench in the hub – can be placed anywhere, but once placed anyone can use it to register for that Delve.
• A single Gateway can be placed while in build mode. Placing the Gateway will automatically queue the player for the Private Delve. Up to seven more players can use the placed Gateway to be queued with the owner.
• The owner of a Private Delve Gateway can interact with it to proceed; the first interaction will send a message to all queued players to get ready, and the second interaction will rush the queue and send everyone in to the Delve. If at any time a full set of eight players are queued, the Gateway will immediately trigger and force everyone in to the Delve.
• If a Gateway is broken using the mining laser, it will return to the destroyer’s inventory and unqueue all queued players. If at any point there are no players nearby, it will unqueue everyone and destroy itself.
• Private Delves allow players to change their class at will.
• The /joinme command can be used to invite more players (up to a maximum of eight unique players can join a single Delve).
• Note that Private Delves are much stricter on what items and mounts can be used. Only Delve mounts and wings may be used.

Challenge Delves
• Challenge Delves are a fair playing field for all teams of delvers to compete against each other to see who can go furthest.
• “Delve Gateway (Challenge Mode)” and “Delve Gateway (Challenge Easy)” can both be crafted at the Delve Workbench in the hub.
• In standard Delves, every new Depth gives you a random Biome. You may find bees at Depth 110 in one Delve, and the Neon Underground at Depth 110 in another Delve. A “new” “Depth 110” is generated each time you visit a Depth 110 Public or Private Delve. In Challenge Delves, though, Depth 110 is only generated once each week, and all players must compete against the same monsters, the same objectives, and the same bosses to see who can get the Deepest, and who can do so the Fastest.
• Challenge Delves start at Depth 110.
• Any time a group successfully moves past a floor in Challenge Mode, the Challenge Delve Depth is saved. Every time a “Delve Gateway (Challenge Mode)” is placed it starts at the saved Challenge Delve Depth. “Delve Gateway (Challenge Easy)” always opens at Depth 110.
• At the end of the week, each player's achieved challenge depth will decay by 8, but will never drop below 110.
• Leaderboards will track not only the deepest depths, but also which group cleared any 3 consecutive tiers in the fastest time. The purple name is now associated with the top 100 players who reach the deepest challenge depths.
• Class switching is allowed in Challenge Delves, but only players who were in the original queue can join or be invited.
• Only Delve mounts or wings may be used.

Delve Rewards
• After defeating the Boss, a Pressurized Chest will appear! Every 3rd consecutive Tier this will be a Heavy Pressurized Chest with additional loot.
• After Depth 25, when a Heavy Pressurized Chest appears, a Shadowy Soul Vault will also appear, containing special rewards like Titan Souls, Lunar Souls, Despoiled Divinity, and Shadow Caches.
• A Delve Shadowkey is required to open the Shadowy Soul Vault. Delve Shadowkeys can be crafted at the Delve Workbench in the hub or at the Shadow Key Mold that appears within the Boss Lair after the Boss is defeated.
• Shadowy Soul Vaults can be opened an unlimited number of times, but players will only receive Titan Souls, Lunar Souls, and Despoiled Divinity from the first 6 Shadowy Soul Vaults opened each week.
• Binding Darkness can be found in chests and additionally has a small chance to drop from enemies in Delves.
• Shadow Shards are now available from picking up the crystals inside of delves after a certain depth.
• A new currency – Inert Geodes – can be acquired inside the Delves. Only a certain amount of this currency can be obtained at any given time, so make sure to use it before hitting the cap!
• The currency cap for Inert Geodes can be increased by obtaining an Inert Geode Wallet. Three wallets are available: two on Rokatan, the large merchant in the Delve building in the hub and a third on the Store under the “Geode” tab.
• Inert Geodes can be used to purchase mounts and wings that will work in Private and Challenge Delves or to craft a variety of objects at the Delve Workbench.
• "Pressure-Locked Delve Caches" can be purchased for Inert Geodes from a Geodian merchant trapped within Delves - open them to find exciting new Delve-related goodies! They can also be obtained as drops from Heavy Pressurized Chests, as a reward for donating Inert Geodes, and occasionally sold or exchanged for other Delve related goods.
• New delve recipes for advanced tracking potions can be found on Geodian Merchants that are also trapped within Delves. Trapped Geodians are freed occasionally when defeating Delve Lair Bosses.
• A new type of collectible can be found in Delves – Mementos. Each Memento grants mastery and is based on the enemies encountered in the Delve Tier.
• Mementos decay after 3 hours of online time if they are not learnt, but can be deconstructed in to Pressure-Locked Delve Caches.
• New Banners can be obtained through Delves. These banners can be crafted by combining poles, flags, and Inert Geodes at the Delve Workbench in the Hub.
• Decorative versions of these banners can also be obtained for players who want to decorate their cornerstones and club worlds. These recipes are sold by Pebble traders found when defeating Delve Lair Bosses.
• In addition to the Light Banners craftable at the Delve Workbench, for those with Enchanted Seasinew Torches or Enshadowed Tendril Torches, new recipes to upgrade these items can be found on the Sunseeker's Crystalforge in Geode Topside. These new upgrades can be deconstructed back in to the Enchanted Seasinew Torch or Enshadowed Tendril Torch.
• Delve allies can be rarely found in appropriate biomes within Delves or crafted at the Delve Workbench.
• Some of the Shadow Tower bosses have crept in to Delves and in the process have picked up some new mounts! Hydrakken has been unable to move his wall underground, but the others can occasionally be found. Daughter of the Moon has acquired 3 new mounts, while Pinata God, Spikewalker, and Weeping Prophet have all acquired 1 new mount.
• In addition to Crystal gear, Delves is the only place where Crystal 4 is available, but only for the most intrepid and hardened of explorers!
• Delves also give 6 badges for completion of Public, Private, and Challenge delves.

Vaca-matic Module

• Shadow Towers now open directly to the boss lair, but there is an increased cost to open the portals.

• The Shadow Tower purple name has moved to the Challenge: Deepest Depth (Weekly) Leaderboard.

Update 8: The Trove Xbox servers are now back online. Cornerstones that were loaded while the servers were online this morning will also temporarily be unavailable until the next patch. Thank you for bringing our attention to this issue.

The post is quite long, so we won't preview it right now. Show

Introduction
Welcome to the initial public testing period for Trove - Delves! These notes provide information about the great new system and changes available with the update. Please be aware that the delve content has yet to receive a final treatment but this is partially to allow us to incorporate your feedback. We hope you enjoy playing Trove - Delves!

Delves
A Note on Delve Balance
The Delve system attempts to match groups of random players with appropriate challenges. But to do this successfully it needs lots of data about just how difficult those challenges are. Thus, especially in the early days, the challenges you face in a Delve may be way too easy, or way too hard. This is why we need players not just giving feedback, but also actively trying to get as deep as they can, giving the Delve system as much data as we can so that it can make a more balanced experience
  • Delves are a new type of gameplay, combining the gameplay of the Geode caves with procedurally generated endless combat! Run through a delve, complete the objectives, and then defeat the boss quickly for rewards and the opportunity to keep going deeper! As the depth increases, so do the challenges and the rewards.
  • There are 3 kinds of delves – public delves, private delves, and challenge delves. Currently only public and private delves are available.
  • Once queued for a delve of any type, the player will stay queued even after going to another world (there will be a bright delve “idea” glowing overhead as a reminder.)
  • Players who log out while queued will be unqueued.
  • Up to eight players can enter any delve. Note that this is not eight players at a time – each delve is locked to those eight unique players.
  • Delves allow players to use their modules from the geode caves as well as engaging in combat – unlike adventure worlds where players switch between combat and build mode, in delves players switch between combat and discovery mode.
  • Delves are a dangerous place. If the player dies, allies will be able to resurrect them in four seconds.
  • Each death will increase the time it takes to release by five seconds – i.e. the first death will take five seconds, the second death ten seconds, the third death fifteen, etc. (This accumulated time is reset when the lair boss is available and on advancing to the next depth.) Ressurrection by allies always only takes four seconds.
  • Releasing in a delve will return the player to the beginning of that delve tier, but there is an intra-Delve Transport that will teleport the player forward to the farthest fully cleared room.
  • Whenever all creatures in a room are defeated, that room will be “checkpointed” and be made available for fast travel from the entrance. A checkpointed room will have a blue glow appear somewhere in the room, and the room’s box in the tier progress bar will be highlighted.
  • When a boss is activated, any players still working their way through the path to the lair will be offered a teleport to the lair room to join in the fight. If the prompt is missed (possibly due to food delivery!), the player might miss out on the loot but will still teleport you to the group in deeper depths.
  • Delves have modifiers signified by Deltaliths, visible in the first room and in the lair room. There are many of these modifiers, including ones that make enemies only take damage in melee range, have reduced health and take extra damage, increased or reduced Darkness, and many more.
  • Delves are themed around existing biomes with a few surprises – initially on PTS brave the depths of The Hive, the Saurian Swamp, or rarely a special surprise biome.
  • The hive delves introduce a new liquid, honey! Honey increases health regen for players who stand in it, but will also dismount and slow down movement. (There are no fish that can survive in honey – it’s the birds and the bees, not the fish and the bees.)
  • Delve objectives are also variable – some delves will ask players to defeat any enemies or specific enemies, while others will ask for crystals or ore to be gathered.
  • One new objective type called Monoliths asks players to hunt down a number of Monoliths, engage them, and defeat all of the spawned enemies.
  • A boss trophy appears before every boss room to give a quick indication of what boss players will be facing. The lair will also have Deltaliths indicating what challenges will accompany the boss.
  • If the boss is reached and defeated fast enough, a Ready Station will appear. Interact with it and stay close by to speed up how fast the portal to the next level will appear!
  • If the team took too long to reach or defeat the boss, a sign will appear and not allow access to the next delve level. Don’t worry – the next delve is always just a queue away.
  • A personal chest, a shadow key mold, and more might appear after the boss is defeated. Flasks should automatically refill once the boss is initially summoned and again once the Ready Station is created.
  • Pell is available after the lair boss is defeated to allow players to switch between modules.
  • Expert delvers may learn to spot signs in the delve path that will indicate which way leads to the lair – it can be easy to get turned around in the middle of combat. Note that while these indicators are useful, some harder delves may have this indicator removed.
Public Delves
  • To enter a public delve, find the delve entrance in the hub where the Bomber Royale building used to be located, then just interact with the portal to enter the queue. The maximum amount of time spent in the queue should be no more than 10 minutes. Interact with the portal again at any time to unqueue from the public delve.
  • When queuing for a public delve, be aware that only the class active when queuing will be allowed. Private delves allow switching between classes at any time.
  • The Bomber Royale portal is still available in the hub – look for it and the merchants in a small tent near where they used to be located.
  • Mounts and wings can be used in public delves. (Ganda’s special ability will not work in Delves.)
  • /joinme can be used to reinvite players who may have disconnected, but cannot be used to invite players for the first time in to a public delve.
Private Delves
  • A private delve matchmaker can be placed anywhere, but once placed anyone can use it to register for that delve.
  • A single matchmaker can be placed while in build mode. Placing the matchmaker will automatically queue the player for the private delve. Up to seven more players can use the placed matchmaker to be queued with the owner.
  • The owner of a private delve matchmaker can interact with the matchmaker – the first interaction will send a message to all queued players to get ready, and the second interaction will rush the queue and send everyone in to the delve. If at any time a full set of eight players are queued, the matchmaker will immediately trigger and force everyone in to the delve.
  • If a private delve matchmaker is broken using the mining laser, it will return to the owner’s inventory and unqueue all queued players. If every nearby player instead runs away from it, it will unqueue everyone and destroy itself.
  • Private delves allow players to change their class at will.
  • The /joinme command can be used to invite more players (up to a maximum of eight unique players in to a delve).
  • Note that private delves are much stricter on what items and mounts can be used. Only delve mounts and wings may be used in private delves.
Delve Rewards
  • After defeating the boss, a chest will appear! (Different kinds of chests?)
  • A new type of collectible can be found in Delves – Mementos. Each Memento grants mastery and is based on the enemies experienced in the delve.
  • Shadow Shards are now available from picking up the crystals inside of delves after a certain depth.
  • A new currency – Inert Geodes – can be acquired inside the Delves. Only a certain amount of this currency can be obtained at any given time, so make sure to use it before hitting the cap!
  • The currency cap for Inert Geodes can be increased by obtaining an Inert Geode Wallet.
  • Inert Geodes can be used to purchase mounts and wings that will work in private delves, along with private delve gateways and a new set of allies.
  • Delve allies can be found in appropriate biomes or crafted at the Delve Workbench.
  • Some of the Shadow Tower bosses have crept in to Delves and in the process have picked up some new mounts! Hydrakken has been unable to move his wall underground, but the others can occasionally be found. Daughter of the Moon has acquired 3 new mounts, while Pinata God, Spikewalker, and Weeping Prophet have all acquired 1 new mount.
  • In addition to Crystal gear, Delves is the only place where Crystal 4 is available, but only for the most intrepid and hardened of explorers!
  • Delves also give 6 badges for completion of Public, Private, and Challenge delves.
Vaca-matic Module
  • The Vaca-Matic, a new module, is now craftable at the Module Workbench. The Vaca-matic sucks in nearby crystals.

Greetings, Trovians!

We are happy to announce that Into the Deep is coming to Consoles!

Leviathan World Bosses
  • Diligent explorers might find the way to some new world bosses in Geode Topside worlds – the monstrous Leviathans living underneath the surface.
  • There are 3 versions of these Leviathans, each with their own giant and dangerous abilities. Watch out, for they shall not be easy to survive!
  • Leviathan Lairs can not be destroyed, and Leviathans will destroy blocks placed around players.
  • The top 8 defeaters of Leviathans any day will receive an Ego Potion.
    • Ego Potions can be used to temporarily increase the size of the player’s head.
    • Unused Ego Potions will vanish during each weekly reset.
  • Defeating a Leviathan gives an increased chance of dropping Crystal 3 equipment along with Lesser Geode Topside Caches. While the drop rates increase with higher ubers, Crystal 3 equipment can drop from a Leviathan in U-8.
  • Badges can be earned for slaying Leviathans; these will reward an Ego Potion for each badge and Hats for every other badge.
  • Leviathans also drop Torches, which grant Light and are equipped in the Banner slot. Each Leviathan will only drop one Torch.
  • Tempered Torches can be crafted at the Sunseeker’s Crystalforge by combining Fragile Torches and other materials.
  • Tempered Torches only last until the weekly reset at 11 AM UTC on Mondays.
  • Fragile Torches last only until the next daily reset at 11 AM UTC.

  • The Club Adventure reward cap has been reduced to 20. Rewards have been rebalanced for this change.

  • Completing Club Adventures and crafting Clubits both have a chance to spawn a Club Pinata.

  • Yoshimi Is now located on the Beacon of Heroes instead of spawning at the Rally of Heroes and grants permanent access to an Outpost Adventure to defeat 15 Luminopolis enemies.
    • This adventure provides the same amount of XP and Adventurine as other outpost Adventures. It also counts against the Outpost Adventure daily limit.
  • Yoshimi will only appear for Beacon of Heroes placed after this patch, so some clubs may need to remove and replace the Beacon of Heroes. To help pay for this, all players with at least 20 Mastery who also log in within 24 hours of the patch will receive 50 Clubits.

  • Completing Trovian Outpost Adventures has a chance to grant a Locked Adventurine Strongbox.

Would I be correct in thinking this? Or will the cornerstone be unaffected by the change in height?
The risk in building to max height isn't that any of it would be cropped if moved to a new area. The issue is that in cases of Cornerstones disappearing a good number of them have been at max height or using a large number of VFX blocks. I recommend avoiding it specifically for that reason, though that is still quite rare.

Bomber Royale Changes
  • A couple of potential Bomber Royale maps are currently running on PTS, but may not be included in the final Improvements Update. Please feel free to give feedback on these maps!
  • Kill credit is now granted to the most recent player to damage someone if they die from environmental damage or falling within 15 seconds.
  • Bomber Royale experience gain has been tuned to award more active, aggressive play. Some experience is now granted based on damage done to other players, and the amount of experience granted for just staying alive has been reduced. Experience for each kill has also been reduced since it is now easier to get credit for kills on players who die from lava or falling. Average experience gain may be lower, but very aggressive and accurate players will be more rewarded.
  • The Bomber Royale scoreboard will now show how much damage has been dealt by each player (not including lava bombs).
  • Damage Done (not including lava) in Bomber Royale is now also tracked in /metrics.
  • In Bomber Royale, there is now an option to spectate the rest of the match. Which living player is being watched can be swapped at any time, and if the current target dies it will automatically swap.
  • Fixed a rare issue that could join players to the same team, preventing them from damaging each other.

Club and Adventure Changes
  • Clubs can now be reordered in the Club List.
  • Primary Clubs will always use channel c1. The other clubs will follow the same order as the Club List.
  • An X button has been added to the Liked Worlds UI, allowing players to remove clubs from the Liked Club World list even if the Homeworld Heart has been removed.
  • Clubs ranks now have a PresidentialCandidate permission, and only players in ranks with this permission will be considered to replace an AWOL president. If a president is AWOL and there is no one in a rank with the PresidentialCandidate permission who is also not AWOL, then that club will continue to be run by the AWOL president. Note that if a president leaves a club, all bets are off and the server will still pick someone to replace them, even if there is no one in a rank with the PresidentialCandidate permission.
  • The Club Adventure “Complete PVP Arena Matches” has been replaced by a new Adventure to throw 100 Bombs in Bomber Royale.
  • The Club Adventure “Complete Timed Challenges” has had its required count changed from 10 to 3.
  • The Club Adventures "Collect a Chaos Chest" and "Collect Chaos Chests" will no longer grant credit for Chaos Chests acquired from deconstructing other items.
  • An /adventurerewards command has been added to show the number of rewards available for various adventure types.
  • Adventures can no longer be accepted if they will not grant any rewards. (Note that club XP is considered a reward, so club adventures can be accepted past the 220 limit.)

Dragons
  • Two new dragons have been added to Trove!
  • Typhandir, the Sundered Shield can be obtained by collecting Egg fragments from Dark Chaos Vaults and then crafting the egg at the Dragon Crucible in the Hub.
    • Typhandir, the Sundered Shield is also available through Golden Dragon Effigies.
    • Dark Chaos Vaults an now be crafted at the Chaos Core Crafter Workbench.
  • Yzzuli of the Honeybreeze can be obtained by collecting Egg fragments from bee enemies and then crafting the egg at the Dragon Crucible in the Hub.
  • The Dormant Lorekeeper Dragon Egg now deconstructs into 5 Lorekeeper Dragon Egg Fragments as opposed to 18 Xinzaya's Tokens.

Store
  • Hearty Party Pack 1 has arrived! Thanks to the charitable contributions made by players during Extra Life 2017, this pack contains an un-bee-lievable dragon, Yzzuli of the Honeybreeze, along with 2 costumes, 3 mounts, 1 dancepad, 8 allies, and 9 styles.
    • Trion Worlds, Inc. will donate $5,000 for every 700 units sold of Trove Hearty Party Pack 1, up to a maximum amount of US$20,000, to Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals (a tax exempt 501(c)(3) organization located at 205 W 700 S, Salt Lake City, UT 84101 ). Donations will be made for all eligible packs sold worldwide (excluding SC, AL, IL, and MA) between 12:00 AM PDT, August 7, 2018 through 11:59 pm PDT, September 4, 2018. This contribution is not tax deductible.
  • A disclaimer has been added during purchases of packs to remind players that collectibles are automatically unlocked on the purchasing account, and accounts that have already purchased included items will not receive duplicates.

Ice Sage Changes
  • The Ice Sage DPS has been increased to be more in line with the other classes in Trove. The Ice Sage's control over multiple enemies has also been improved and expanded. We have switched around the ultimate ability, 'The Big Chill' to make it more of the Ice Sage's normal kit rotation. We felt the ability to freeze muliple targets is unique to the Ice Sage, is a lot of fun and should be available for use more frequently.
  • Originally, Frozen Ward was designed to behave like a panic button for when things were not looking good for the Ice Sage. Because the shield lasted indefinitely and provided a DPS increase, it made this ability more of a requirement for the class (due to it lacking DPS overall) and less of a second chance at life.
  • While we have moved, 'The Big Chill' to the Ability1 button, we overhauled the way Frozen Ward works, moved it to Ability2 and have made this the class ultimate.
  • The Empowered Gem for the Ice Sage, "Pain Freeze" no longer replaces, 'Ice Crash' but now replaces the Basic Attack for the Ice Sage. We felt the way Pain Freeze was originally implemented was a bit too uncontrollable or RNG and didn't really support the existing kit or change the overall class gameplay in a way we were happy with, so it's been changed. The changes to Pain Freeze should help round out the class and support the existing gameplay without making the class gem a "must have" for the class.
  • Basic Attack
    • The damage of Basic Attack has been increased by 100% to a coefficient of 2.0
    • Projectile size increased by 100% (from 0.25 to 0.50 block size)

    • Pain Freeze basic attack chills enemies, slowing their movement speed. (Like the Ice Sage passive, "Coldhearted")
    • Pain Freeze allows Ice Sages to walk across ice without slipping. (Like the Ice Sage passive, "Coldhearted")
    • Targets hit three times with Basic Attack while "Pain Freeze" is equipped explode taking additional damage with a coefficient of 4.5
    • The first hit from Basic Attack now freezes targets for 1s
  • Ice Sage Sub-class Ability
    • All tiers of the Ice Sage sub-class shield now include:
      • Incoming damage reduced by 10% while active
      • Movement speed has been increased by +20

Bomber Royale Changes
  • Kill credit is now granted to the most recent player to damage someone if they die from environmental damage or falling within 15 seconds.
  • Bomber Royale experience gain has been tuned to award more active, aggressive play. Some experience is now granted based on damage done to other players, and the amount of experience granted for just staying alive has been reduced. Experience for each kill has also been reduced since it is now easier to get credit for kills on players who die from lava or falling. Average experience gain may be lower, but very aggressive and accurate players will be more rewarded.
  • The Bomber Royale scoreboard will now show how much damage has been dealt by each player (not including lava bombs).
  • Damage Done (not including lava) in Bomber Royale is now also tracked in /metrics.
  • In Bomber Royale, there is now an option to spectate the rest of the match. Which living player is being watched can be swapped at any time, and if the current target dies it will automatically swap.
  • Fixed a rare issue that could join players to the same team, preventing them from damaging each other.
  • (PS4 and Xbox only) The Bomber Royale scoreboard no longer prevents opening chat or the character sheet.

Club and Adventure Changes
  • Clubs can now be reordered in the Club List.
  • Primary Clubs will always use chat channel c1. The other clubs will follow the same order as the Club List.
  • An X button has been added to the Liked Worlds UI, allowing players to remove clubs from the Liked Club World list even if the Homeworld Heart has been removed.
  • Clubs ranks now have a PresidentialCandidate permission, and only players in ranks with this permission will be considered to replace an AWOL president. If a president is AWOL and there is no one in a rank with the PresidentialCandidate permission who is also not AWOL, then that club will continue to be run by the AWOL president. Note that if a president leaves a club, all bets are off and the server will still pick someone to replace them, even if there is no one in a rank with the PresidentialCandidate permission.
  • The Club Adventure “Complete PVP Arena Matches” has been replaced by a new Adventure to throw 100 Bombs in Bomber Royale.
  • The Club Adventure “Complete Timed Challenges” has had its required count changed from 10 to 3.
  • The Club Adventures "Collect a Chaos Chest" and "Collect Chaos Chests" will no longer grant credit for Chaos Chests acquired from deconstructing other items.
  • An /adventurerewards command has been added to show the number of rewards available for various adventure types.
  • Adventures can no longer be accepted if they will not grant any rewards. (Note that club XP is considered a reward, so club adventures can be accepted past the 220 limit.)

Additional Updates
  • Made many server optimizations and reduced the amount of data sent back and forth between the client and server. This will moderately reduce lag.
  • An option to make cornerstones undamageable by bombs and abilities has been added to the Miscellaneous tab under Settings.
  • Added an option in the Miscellaneous tab under Settings to set the minimum rarity of gear that will be picked up when holding the Loot hotkey.
  • The +50% Crystal Gathering Potion now increases Crystal drops by 50% from Crystal Pinatas, Lesser and Greater Crystal Caches.
  • A sort button has been added for personal chests and inventory.
  • Players can now pick their displayed name colors from a list of earned colors. This list can be accessed next to the name on the character sheet.
  • There is now a toggle on the box opening UI that allows players to open chests until a rare result occurs.
  • The Geode Hub now has a map.
  • The player's icon should now appear over other players on the map.
  • Reduced the time it takes for cave critters to reward the player with Lesser Crystal Caches by approximately 75%.
  • Opening the Collections panel from the Character Sheet will now default to "Show Favorites" instead of "Hide Uncollected". If no Favorites are assigned for a given category, it will fall back to show all the collected items instead, as it did before.
  • The Marketplace now has a Resell option.
  • Camera distance will now be saved when switching between worlds.
  • Fixed an issue where the Dino Tamer ultimate would sometimes get stuck.
  • Damage numbers have been added to the Faerie Dance ability for Fae Trickster.
  • Fixed an issue preventing Za’hadeen from working with the Fae Trickster Subclass ability.
  • Tweaked the damage size for Vanguardian ranged attacks.
  • 30 enemy Cursed Skulls have been altered to spawn in three waves of ten creatures versus the old method of spawning six waves of five creatures.
  • The loot collector will now also include items in the currency inventory.
  • Items in the currency inventory should no longer deconstruct in to 100 glim.
  • The scroll speed for merchant stores has been increased.
  • Looting equipment while in Build Mode will no longer auto equip the item.
  • The error message received when attempting to equip a gem with an already equipped effect is now more accurate.
  • Additional Mastery Sigils have been added.
  • Plants will now grow in any season.
  • A Chocolate Sponge has been added to the top tier of Gardening. Note that Chocolate blocks are not required for any plant.
  • Double PVP Experience has been removed from the weekly bonus rotation after the current week - it only affects the old Battle Arenas, so the event has been confusing for some players. Bomber Royale is affected by the normal Double Experience weekly bonus instead.
  • Water can no longer destroy anti-gravity blocks.
  • Rare bird deco drops and epic bear deco drops have had their displayed rarity set to Common so they will automatically be looted and won't leave behind extra floating objects. Note that this only affects their displayed rarity and not their drop rate.
  • Fixed a typo for the Hoarfiend Hornbow.
  • Messages about receiving 0 Geode Mastery should no longer be displayed.
  • Fixed an issue where the skybox flickers when changing zones.
