[Ravager]

Pics from one of the crate token vendors.



The warrior belt has no damage increase. Mage and rogue one does have a damage increase. Its bad enough that these new levels have low mob density and probably won't even need a warrior. But then again, these are normal and not elite.



Two 0 ap items. Most likely these will be during the event to rebuild the town prior to the actual expansion release. 3 Elite bosses AP. So probably only those 3 zones, unless they make some more later.


Pets


What is an Arcane,Gold pet?

The mob density is very low. Similar to wilds. Warriors not needed in these levels. Not sure of elite since its not released yet. I did not have time to level up my pets to 45/46 to see if any pets such as arcanes gain new abilities. If you try to run from mobs, some of them axe pull you in. I had trouble terrorizing/banishing the mobs. Not sure if breeze freezes them.

I'm thinking Orc Kings Treasure chests are similar to planar chests and Rengol Crates are now only found in the 3 expansion zones normal/elite and will cost plat to open. Instead of having 2k gold payouts maybe they'll have the crate tokens instead. Its to reward those players who open lots of crates and have that empty feeling of not getting anything good sometimes. Good for the people who pay but will greatly increase rich/poor gaps. That's one theory.

But then I see multiple descriptions in the pet stables for crates/treasures etc.
Toor/Gold Toor - Found in Rengol Crates throughout Arlor. So Rengol Crates will not just drop from the 3 levels?
Stanlee - Rage of Rengol Crates. Are these the same as Rengol Crates found throughout Arlor or crates found only in the 3 levels?

Boris can be purchased with Orc Tags. Either this is a new form of currency or event currency during the rebuilding of the town. It would be odd to release 2 new types of currency at once. Orc tags and crate tokens.

Porkchop has the same graphics as Boris except a tail. Porkchop comes from a level 41 kit. I'm assuming this is STS's plan to quickly level people or instantly level new players to 41 with this kit.


The glintstone stuff looks weak right now but we don't know what the set bonus is.

None of the pets look enticing to me. Stanlee is going to be flawed in PVP since the armor debuff will be overriden easily. Lots of the arcane pets offer more in regards to stat buffs when compared to Toor/Gold Toor. Of course we don't know the AA yet or passive attack...but still.

Of course all subject to change but just posting what I see, what I can deduce and my questions/concerns.

Updating #1 - more info/findings.

Level 41 -> 42 = 6160 XP
Level 42 -> 43 = 6930 XP
Level 43 -> 44 = 7700 XP
Level 44 -> 45 = 8470 XP
Level 45 -> 46 = around 9260 XP

Porkchop at Level 41 (from the 41 kit)


Individual buff icons now shown. Lep, luck elixir, eggband, xp elixir, combo xp elixir, etc all have their own individual icons instead of mashed into 1 of the same type.



The long default list of crafting jewels without using filter.


Fortunately, we have a filter option which helps a bit.


The highest filter I found was level 30 for the jewels. 31+ produced an empty list. Maybe these jewels are scaled to 30....or not. I don't know.


Sample selection of level 15 jewels


Sample selection of level 10 jewels


Removing jewels option is given when you try to upgrade an item with an existing jewel in it. It requires a little bit of gold and is instant.
5g was the lowest (for jewel). 10g was for the 2nd lowest (for damaged jewel). It 40g was for 3rd lowest (weak jewel removal). Not sure for anything above.



Crafting a damaged jewel = 3 cracked jewels and 30g
Each stronger version requires 3 of the weaker jewel + gold.
Weak = 3 damaged + 100g
Standard = 3 weak + 300g
Fortified = 3 standard + 700g
Excellent = 3 fortified + 1500g
Superb = 3 excellent + 3400g
Noble = 3 superb + 10500g.

Lep pendant, a level 1 item, accepts up to weak jewels which is nice. Previously 1 stat increase or 2 with grand. Weak jewels increase standard stats by 3.

Crafting to create a jewel takes 1 hour. I upgraded 1 slot and it took 8 hours ( but i rush crafted it ). 2nd slots also take 8 hours (not 24 hours). 3rd slot is also 8 hours (instead of 48)

Planar tombs is scaled to my 46 char. I opened two planar chests and got 2 40 epics. Golden Dragonscale Chests are now Golden Dragonscale Chests II meaning they will probably have scaled items inside. Same for Elite Golden Dragonscale Chests II. I dont think they input the loot for Rengol Crates since they still drop 41 Conquistador gear. Nordr zone does not scale. Shuyal zone does seem to scale. Either a 45 or 46 zone.

Eggs and chests can be liquidated for 0 gold.

My singe at 46 did not get a new passive. I'm assuming the same for the other mythics and arcanes.

Rengol crates drop all over arlor. Not 100% sure where the large rengol crates drop.
