1. The second chapter.
2. Locations "Ebony Mine" and "Kingdom of Hades".
3. The "Kingdom of Hades" affinity.
4. New equipment system.
5. New types of jewels 1-15 levels.
6. Lightening old content.
7. Innovations.
8. Changes in the Store.
9. Changes to Specialty Stores.
10. Other changes.

And now let's go through each point in more detail ...

 

1. The second chapter of the plot "Peace. The Kingdom of Hades."

A full-fledged continuation of the storyline has been added to the game (rather a twist), in connection with which the maximum level has been increased from 60 to 75.
It is important to understand here that all new equipment is level 65, and you should not shout that level 65+ is too difficult. It is made specifically for people who want to prove to themselves and others that it is faster-higher-stronger. In total, the add-on currently includes 48 main quests, 21 additional quests and 4 daily quests.

2. Locations "Ebony Mine" and "Kingdom of Hades".

Also, players are waiting for two locations that have not previously been used in the game:

Passage modified location "Ebony Mine", which is used primarily for the storyline, because according to mythology, all caves and grottoes are the gates to the mortal realm.
Level to enter Ebony Mine must be 56 or higher.

And the second location "Kingdom of Hades", developed by us from scratch especially for this add-on. Its appearance and themes are initially associated with the theme of the second chapter's plot from the development stage.
The level to enter the "Kingdom of Hades" must be 60 or higher.

Since the release of the update, the Bestiary, bottles of souls for purple and gold monsters, as well as Books in the Bestiary Store are available for these locations.
And for both locations, the Scrolls of the inhabitants work at once, but in order to use the scroll in the Kingdom of Hades, you need a reputation, more on that below...

3. The "Kingdom of Hades" affinity.

All gameplay in the "Kingdom of Hades" is directly related to the affinity of this location, for example, in order to use the Iris Monster Scroll or the Kingdom of Hades NPC/Monster Scroll, you need to gain 5,000 reputation with the affinity. And in the best traditions of OmniChaos, story missions will tell the player about joining a affinity. What does reputation give?

5.000 - Access to use the NPC/Monster Scroll.
10.000 - Information about the summoning of Hekate.
25.000 - Automatic recall to Thanatos.
50.000 - Access to Equipment Upgrades.
75.000 - Automatic recall to judges.
100.000 - Access to Hades.
150.000 - Automatic recall to Hekate.
200.000 - Access to cleaning seals and improvements.
250.000 - Access to the merchant Tanith.
300.000 - Daily random hammer reward.
500.000 - Access to trading with the faction.

 

Reputation has a cumulative effect, to donate reputation to an NPC you need 1,000 reputation points. When a player has 900 reputation points, he becomes visible on the map for all players, a hunt is announced for him and you need to sacrifice the reputation of the NPC as quickly as possible and not die. If a player is killed, then the enemy takes 50% of the reputation for himself and the other 50% is burned.
If the player has faction points, invisibility does not work.
If a player left the game with points, then an NPC copy of the character is created at the exit point, it shows how many points the player who left has, and a 10-minute timer goes over his head. Another player can kill the copy and takes 50% of the points for himself only 3 minutes after the appearance of the copy, when 7 minutes remain on the timer.
The copy can only exist for 10 minutes if the player does not return the copy and the reputation points are removed.

After 5 victims (displayed on the map of players) died in the location "Kingdom of Hades", "Thanatos" - the boss - appears in a special place in the location, killing him gives 200 reputation to all attackers in an instant count and  “Charon’s Coin” in an amount from 1 to 10 randomly. At the time of the arrival of "Thanatos", the blessing "Peace Agreements" is imposed on everyone for 15 minutes and makes it possible to take part in the killing of the boss - points are not lost upon death.
The blessing is removed after killing the boss.

In addition, in the "Kingdom of Hades" there is a boss "Hecate", which comes when a total of 10,000 reputation is filled, but no more than once every 12 hours, killing her will grant all attacking players  Sweet Seal of Hekate (normal, allows you to choose 4 stats for new equipment), but can give one of the players  Fine Seal of Hekate (good, gives 5 characteristics to choose from), as well as with a probability of 1%, an auction will start on  Magnificent Seal of Hekate (excellent, gives 6 stats to choose from) between all players.
Killing Hecate grants 500 reputation instantly to all attacking players.

There are also 3 bosses in the "Kingdom of Hades" location - Minos, Rhadamanthus and Tanat, for killing which the player receives a reward  Hammer of Minos,  Hammer of Rhadamanth and  Hammer of Tanat respectively. All three come with a break of 2 hours starting at 00:00 in order daily.
They give 100 reputation instantly to all attackers.

 

 Coin of Charon - a ticket to the boss "Hades", each player needs 2 coins to get to the boss. To get to Hades, gather a group / raid of 8 people and submit an application from "Charon". Each party member must have 2 Charon Coins and 100,000 reputation with the Kingdom of Hades faction. One run lasts exactly 15 minutes. If one group is at Hades, the second group will have to wait. Groups are sent in order of registration. If the group/raid has not mastered the boss in 15 minutes, they will forcefully leave the territory, freeing up the location for the next group.
Killing Hades grants 300 instant reputation to all attacking players.
It is when killing Hades that level 65 equipment is obtained, and it is for this equipment that the Seals of Hecate and the Hammers of Judges are used...

4. New equipment system.

As stated above, killing Hades grants level 65 gear, which is essentially empty, with no hidden seals or stats. For this equipment to become really valuable, one of the Seals of Hecate must be applied to it (see above).
This can be done by returning to the camp in the Kingdom of Hades and contacting Defender Veritas.
But it's not that simple, she won't cooperate with players who haven't reached 50,000 reputation in the Kingdom of Hades. But having reached such a level of trust, the player opens up previously unseen opportunities - to choose the characteristics for his equipment INDEPENDENTLY!
(from the list of available ones, of course, the characteristics themselves are equal to those that were previously used in equipment seals)
(two identical characteristics on one item cannot be selected)

And that's not all Defender Veritas has in store for Iris's valiant defenders. Remember Hammers of Judges? (see above)
With their help, you can improve the characteristics of your equipment (the principle is similar to equipment reforging), but no more than three characteristics on one item.
The range of performance improvement is from 50% to 200%, that is, if you fail, the performance indicators can be reduced by half, but do not worry because the chance of failure is very low, less than 10%. Where are hammers used?

 "Hammer of Minos" as indicated on the icon is used for Talismans.

 "Hammer of Rhadamanth" used to improve the characteristics of the Weapon.

 "Hammer of Tanat" used to increase the characteristics of the Armor.

 

5. New types of jewels 1-15 levels.
