Hi everyone, at Noon CST is releasing patch 12.55, which features the full release of the normal mode Citadel Raid as well as the return of the Winter Festival!
We’d like to thank everyone who has participated in testing the Citadel raid with us and helped us polish and balance it. You contributed to making this raid great!
Citadel Raid
- Added Citadel raid questline - find the quest in the new tunnel under Highsteppe from Helga. You can find it starting in the Dragon Shop
- Added all the drops and items, breakdown can be found here
- Added new gear for sale from the Raid Vendor purchaseable with tokens
- Added raid trash mobs
- Added Weak Sephotep
- Added Achievements for defeating the bosses, and one for doing the Citadel quest line
Boss 3:
- Lowered portal health
- Lowered elite health - Note that there is a mechanic that can make the elites harder or easier to kill.
- Added anti-cheese mechanic for adds
We will also keep monitoring balancing feedback in the coming weeks, so definitely post your experiences!
Winter Festival
This is the return of last year’s festival as-is, but with both old and new rewards being added, like a new snowman pet, a mount, and a fireplace for your home.
You can find the whole preview here.
- Main quest can be acquired from the Winter Festival NPC outside the Highsteppe gates
- A sidequest chain from the Festival Farmer near Cenn’s Shop
- A critter capture mission from Pierre Cenn
- Winter Herald 2019 is now a legacy achievement and you can get Winter Herald 2020 from completing the Winter Festival Quest and earning “A Special Snowflake” achievement (carried over from last year)
Known Issues
- The snowman critter model has an issue with the texture
- The old furniture from last year Winter Fest is missing from the furniture shop (Sled, Presents, etc.)
- The town billboard near the player house has old information
We’ll get a fix in for these soon in a patch, and they will not require a server restart.
Enjoy the new content!
