    Default In Development - New Exploration Maps and Balance Refinements


    The Arcane Legends Development Team is continuing to look at how players are playing Arcane Legends PvP and PvE and work on balance and refinements. While I don't have specifics to share, I can say that Elite Map difficulty is something the team is working on. The intent is for Elite Maps to be challenging - but not so much that they lack fun. Additionally, there are two new "Exploration" maps coming soon.

    Let's take a closer at the new maps. These are still being created, but here is a sneak peek.

    These 2 new areas will unlock after you've defeated Bloodhammer in Skull Cove. When you talk to Captain Hanna Raven, you will have the option to go exploring.

    These two new areas are analogous to the up-scaled versions of the Crypts and Tombs that were added along with the Dead City expansion. There are Elite versions of these maps and they have some unique drops from the end bosses.

    At this time, we're planning on patching this content and balance changes out probably next week. We'll keep you posted on the progress and thanks for playing Arcane Legends!

    The drops are still being worked on. We will have a closer look probably later this week.

    1. Prices will go down... I hope not too much.
    2. Guys who did respec char ( specially tank warriors) from last patch, can feel little sad if it will mean for them more respec, to old builds.
    3. Wizard in photos have no shield! Gl in pvp lol :-)
    4. I wonder will it be just easier, or mb drop will be balanced to dificulty too... Like 100% chance to chest from skull cave or somethink.

    They always do we just normally don't notice. Like a child wanting the next toy after having a new one for 5 minutes.
