Hero Siege - Elias (The Machinist)

Greetings,

Here is a little showcase of the nodes in the upcoming Season 9 Incarnation Tree! All feedback is welcome and will be considered!

Hero Siege - Elias (The Machinist)

Greetings to all of our beloved gamers,

We will be having 2 new skill trees in Season 9. Incarnation tree which will replace the current hero level tree, giving you technically infinite scaling passive skill tree post level 100 and the Ether which is like an atlas tree used to buff mechanics you want to farm.

I am aiming for close to 2000 nodes for the incarnation tree (for counter measure, poe tree has around 1250 nodes, correct me if im wrong).

Hero Siege is here to serve all of your ARPG needs. Lets keep rocking and moving forward towards an amazing future!

Hero Siege - Rexi

We have disabled the Family Share option, as it was being exploited by cheaters to bypass bans.

Players who previously used Family Share may need to re-link their PAS accounts to their personal Steam accounts.

If this applies to you, please join our Discord and contact us via our ticketing system. You can find the contact information at the bottom of the page.

We’re sorry for the inconvenience, but this change is for the benefit of the whole community.

Hero Siege - Elias (The Machinist)
Greetings fine people of Tarethiel.

Season 8 out at 3PM GMT+2 on September 12th 2025

It is I, one of the burnt out developers (Elias). I had to think for a long while what to write so I decided to write nonsense, my brain and I think everyone's brains are fried at this point so we are just happy to be done with our latest development cycle. This is the single biggest patch we have ever done, notes are up to 1600 lines so get ready for a roller coaster..

Our team has also grown in size, we have hired community member and moderator Octa to do tickets since our QA team was kinda doing those and we don't want to waste their time on tickets, thus we hired a person who is actually good at handling them. We also lacked a person who is responsible and understands ARPG itemization, so we hired Fumacinha, also a community member and moderator. And last but not least our new project manager Rexi who we hired a bit before the last seasons launch, he is responsible of keeping everything intact and making sure everything is looked at and nothing gets ignored. Our team can get quite wild and out of place often.

E.L.I.A.S.

(Lead Developer / Front End Programmer)

"Works 24/7, essentially sleeps mostly at the office"

Jussi

(Lead Programmer / Back End Programmer)

"Man of logic and math, often dives into the cosmos. Jussi is the back end lifeline for hero siege. He knows the code in and out!"

Mika

(Senior Artist)

"Mika rarely speaks.. But his art does, it absolutely blasts!
Watching his art from back in the day and comparing it to what it is now is beyond comprehension!"

HandsomeTom

(SysAdmin / Servers)

"Responsible of servers, databases and pretty much everything, alone. This man has been inside a volcano and survived"

Rexi

(Project Manager)

"The only sane man in the office trying to keep everything intact, even if it takes 10 rolls of duct tape. The office can get quite wild at times"

Elias 2

(Consoles / Back End Programming)

"When a person tells you they enjoy reading SDK documentation in an interview, you kinda know what youre getting. This man has essentially now become half man, half PS5"

Robert

(PAS Intranet / Web Programming)

"The man behind the systems and tools we use to monitor, manage and track players, catch cheaters and whatnot. Without him we would suffer".

Ahto

(QA / Design / Apprentice Programmer)

"Ahto has been in the team for quite a long time, mainly doing testing and some level design. We are now slowly teaching him programming so he can be a helping hand to our lack of manpower in front end programming"

Nimo

(QA / Design)

"Testing, reproducing bugs, finding bugs, documenting bugs, bothering the programmers, stealing your socks when you sleep and whatnot."

Hallgar

(QA / Design)

"Also doing testing and all that, has a brazilian way of breaking everything that is actually some kind of voodoo. So if you think your system is functional, let this man touch it and see what happens.."

Fumacinha

(Design / Items)

"The wizard with 8000+ hours in Hero Siege, thousands in PoE and other ARPG games. Responsible for itemization and item balance after Season 8"

Octa

(Ticketmaster)

"He will be assisting you with any questions or problems. Please ask him anything... like... Anything"

Blah, so I would go over the patch notes but there is just too much so I wont bother going to detail. If there are any questions you can comment on the post and I will be answering them :)

Hero Siege Season 8 Patch Notes

Elias (Lead Dev):

"I would like to use this opportunity to thank each and every player who contributes to Hero Siege in one way or another. This game is my life, it is why I wake up in the morning (or night). I have spent over a decade building Hero Siege into the game it is today, it has required an incomprehensible amount of time and effort.

We have been putting more and more weight on player feedback so please keep giving yours, we do read everything we humanly can and base our decisions on the overall consensus. The best way you can help the game out is to write a Review, so if you havent please do! Also if you have left a negative review, please check if we corrected whatever it was you based it on and maybe give a second opinion based on how the game feels now!

I will keep on serving the players, as long as I can.

Hero Siege - Keppihakkaaja

We patched a potential fix to the launch issue yesterday and now confirm that everything is working properly. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Now is the time to start cooking on Season 8!

Hero Siege - Keppihakkaaja

We are aware of the issue affecting launching the game from Steam. This can be fixed by reinstalling the game and/or verifying game files by right clicking the game on Steam. The issue is caused by the protection we added for this season to mitigate problems with cheating. We are working on a proper fix, but in the meantime these steps can be used to temporarily fix the problem. Sincere apologies for those affected and thank you for your continued support.

We'll keep you updated when the situation changes.

Official Patch Notes

Release will be at 2PM GMT+2
Hero Siege - kaljaeläin
Whats the plan?
From next Season onwards, you will be prompted to link your PanicNet account to your platforms account ID (Steam / Google Play). For most users this requires a simple button click in the game after a successful login and you're all set. Registering a new PanicNet account to play Hero Siege online requires you to link your account upon registration.

When an account is linked you will be in a linked state, meaning you get the full online experience. Unlinked accounts will behave the same way as the accounts with unverified email currently do (any form of trading is disabled, more info below). You can link one PanicNet account to multiple platforms once per platform, meaning that an account can be linked to both a Steam Account and a Google Play account (and to more platforms in the future).

To sum it up
Same applies for all platforms, but let's use Steam here as an example:

  • Only one PanicNet account can be linked per Steam account and vice versa
  • After the linking, logging in to the PanicNet account in Hero Siege is only possible with the linked Steam account

Linked accounts
  • All regular online play features available, including the Market, Mailbox, Trading, Chat
  • Enhanced security (eg. Only your Steam Account can login to your PanicNet Account in Hero Siege)
  • Automatic Login for linked accounts

Unlinked accounts
Access to:

  • Online Play with trading disabled (see below)
  • Blood Pacts and all its features, including stash and chat
  • Guild Perks, Guild Chat
  • Wormhole Highscores
  • Hero Level Highscores
  • Chaos Tower Highscores
  • "Season First to Level 100" leaderboard

No access:

  • Market
  • Mailbox
  • Trading (including "drop trading")
  • Guild Stash
  • Sending chat messages (excluding Guild and Blood Pact chats)

Why?
The reason for these changes is to prevent abuse and to provide a better multiplayer experience for all the Hero Siege players. Moving forward, we need to more strongly enforce our "One account per user" policy to make it happen, and we feel that this is the right way to do it without compromising any existing accounts in the process.

And what about my alts?
You can only link one account per platform (let's use Steam as an example again). If you have "alt accounts" you used to access with the same Steam account, that will still be possible. They will, however, be indefinitely in an unlinked state unless linked with another Steam account (at which point they can only be accessed by the linked Steam account, of course).

It is not possible to transfer any characters, cosmetics or season rewards from one account to another, but it is possible to trade, send mail or use other forms of trading if you want to transfer some items from alt to main before Season 7, which is scheduled to start 6th of June.
