Eterspire 48.0 - Rise of the Trials

New Content & Features

  • Trials have arrived! Trials are multiplayer battles where players must work together to survive waves of enemies and defeat a powerful final boss. They are available to level 160 players in the Trials of the Mountain map, located in the Vestadian Range. Completing Trials rewards players with the strongest armor sets in the game!
  • New regular gear sets up to level 160 have been added: Citrine, Kunzite, Aquamarine, Jade, Zircon, Topaz, and Rhodonite. Shards and runes for this level range have also been added.
  • Several unique items now use different shards and runes for upgrading, to match the new material tiers. Remember: you can boost Reforge Runes using a Rune, a shard of the target material, and an Essence of Chaos, which is sold by Old Guswacha in Old Guswacha's House. This is especially useful if you have a lot of Emerald Reforge Runes sitting around.
  • New maps have been added for levels 95–120! Explore Blight Bastion, now accessible past Volcanic Base in Arid Ridge.
  • Hunts from levels 95 to 160 have been streamlined to take advantage of the new maps and provide greater variety.
  • Buff durations now refresh when you receive the same buff again. Previously, the new buff would be ignored if the same one was already active.

Other Changes

  • Fixed a bug introduced in the previous version—the game can now rotate properly when changing device orientation.
  • Renamed and updated the sprite for the catalyst used in the "A Ghostly Cape" quest to avoid confusion with the Red Catalyst.
  • When a quest objective changes, its indicator now plays a visual effect to make the change more noticeable.
