Dear dexters!
After the restart January 9, the new locations Cursed Town and Ancient Mansion will become available in the game!
Also we finally release the Charms! I know that you can't wait to find out all the details, so let's get down to business right away:




Ancient Mansion


Ancient Mansion is a solo/duo location populated by groups of vampires and can be reached through a mansion located near the Hidden Oasis. Monsters in this location can drop Ancient Adena, Forgotten Scrolls and Coins of Hellbound.
This location contains new Raid Boss Demon Prince.


Cursed Town


Cursed Town is a party location with groups of aggressive monsters.
Each group contains Cursed Leader, x3 Cursed Daughter (healers) and x3 Cursed Attendant (damage dealers).
The strategy of farming looks like a fight against mini raid bosses. It is unlikely that you will be able to kill them with AOE like Gem Dragons.
Also the Cursed Leader has passive skill with 50% damage reflection, so Titans are also not so useful.
The location also contains several Town Patrolmen. These are strong single monsters that can inflict a very powerful debuff. Be careful! But they haven't any damage reflect passives ;)
Also, a Charmed Supply Box periodically appears in the location, don't miss it!
This location contains new Raid Boss Amaskari.

Badges

When hunting at Cursed Town location, you can get various Badges from monsters and raid bosses.
Badges are used to create and improve charms. Bring the badges to Legendary Blacksmith Shadai at Citadel Outpost.
Badge of Power
Badge of Arcane
Badge of Aegis
Badge of Barrier
Badge of Glory
Badge of Honor
Badge of Assassination
Badge of Focus
Badge of Empowerment
Badge of Enlightment
Badge of Constitution
Badge of Essence
Badge of Morale
Badge of Swiftness
Badge of Acumen
Badge of Renewal
