There will also be a new instance available on this Zone - Catacombs (additional gameplay time expected: 50-100 hours)
2) Elf-Creator, the fourth Gurluhsor Tower Boss is added.
Description: The Boss appears accompanied with his 4 bodyguards (elven paladins), who attack players before the main Boss, who waits for his turn venomously commenting the whole process and joins the fight after a while.
3) Orc-Necromancer, the fifth Gurluhsor Tower Boss is added. Description: The boss uses melee attacks that cause deadly wounds and once in 20 seconds he casts an acid-puddles spell at a random player taking part in the raid. The spell lasts for two minutes, so after a period of 120 seconds there's going to be 6 acid-puddles on the ground for the rest of the battle.
Features
1) Astral Islands gameplay modification
Description: 4th, 7th, 11th and 12th Astral Isles become farming ones. Due to a fact that players avoid all the Island's mobs except the Raid Bosses – without an experience grind – the Isles' mechanic's been modified the way that players would have to kill all the mobs they pass by, in order to get to the main Boss location.
2) Gameplay time extension.
Description:Unlock Teleports. All the teleports are supposed to be available for a player.
3) Monetization solution. Cursed Items.
Description: Cursed Items are equipable ones and may be dropped out from Bosses along with other Items. But as opposed to other equipable Items, Cursed ones decrease character's stats by the amount of points it should have increased 'em. Yet, such stats as DPS, Spellpower, Armor and Resistance remain unchanged. The Curse can be removed either by spending a lot of time, completing special procedures needed, or by buying a Curse-removing item in ItemMall.

• Decreasing a number of Boxes that can be found while travelling by Astral Ship and increasing a probability to find some useful gear instead.
• Implementing a territorial loot distribution according to following scheme: 90% of current sector's unique loot, 10% of random sector's loot.
• Implementing a system of showing a ship device quality as it's easier for players to understand if they need it or not.
• Restricting a partial repair of ship's devices. Players may only perform a full repair of damaged device. Otherwise, a repair itself won't be available at all.
2) Gear stats/resistances distribution balance improves.
Description: Each weapon/armor/etc. has its own set resistances that increase total value of a character's resistance to elemental/fire/ice/etc. damage. In order to improve distribution logic a new system was implemented. The idea is that every type of gear has a certain resists set.
Example: a helm can only add Armor and Nature resistance.
