The Oryxmas season is here in full force! In our largest update since MotMG, we’ve got a Santa’s bag worth of new content to share. The expansive and long-awaited Item Forge, enhanced consumable usage with Quick Slots, three completely remade dungeons, a brand new Cube God dungeon, new godlands foes, a festive campaign for the holiday season, and more still!



Check it all out at our blog with the official Patch Notes

Oryxmas is approaching and it’s time to feast! Have you ever wondered what’s in the Superburger? On the Power Pizza? And what exactly is contained in an Atomic Taco? What is the Oryx Cookie even made of? (And please don’t make jokes about Ambrosia…)

This time we are not talking about Item Forge. An unprecedented contest is here for you to show off your cooking skills! Just like playing a game, cooking requires creativity, planning, coordination and mechanical skill.

For this contest, you will create a recipe for one of the Food Items in the game. Write down the steps and ingredients and take a photo of the finished dish along with a note containing your In-Game Name! After that, of course, you’d do well to share it with your friends and family…

The best cooks at DECA will be judging your entrées entries, with street food chef Fidelow as the head judge.

Learn how to enter the contest and what the rewards will be at our official blog.

And we would also like to share our Advent Calendar for Oryxmas 2020 with you.



Loot multipliers, Chest Events, The Grinch and the one you kept asking for: we are opening the Santuary from the 6th to the 12th of January.

Also, I would roam around the Realm while the Oryxmas Campaign lasts… you never know what sort of presents might randomly drop… (wink, wink).

You’ve been asking for it, and here it is! The place to ask all the questions you’ve always wanted to ask but we didn’t have the time to answer. Here’s how to participate:

• Follow us on instagram @rotmg_exalt (yes, the account is empty, but that won't be the case for long! Follow anyway, because this is where the AMA will be taking place.)
  
• We will post for the first time at 5:30 CET tomorrow, December 3rd.
  
• We will be answering and accepting questions up until 6:30 CET.
  
• Only comments on the AMA post will count as valid questions.
  
• Follow-up questions will be answered after all the others.
  
• After this, we will pick the questions with most likes and answer them on the next day’s post. If there are many unanswered questions, we may answer them on a later post.
  
• Please take into consideration the questions that were already made during the session and try not to repeat subjects.
  
• We also reserve the right not to answer provocative or ill intended questions or even to delete comments using inappropriate words.

Starting Friday, 4th, until Sunday, 6th, you’ll be able to join us on Public Testing (yes, we are doing more and more of these now!). When we announce on Reddit, RealmEye, Discord and social media, you just have to switch to Testing on the launcher to have access to the new features. Your account on testing is 100% independent and credentials to not transfer, so you will need to make a new account for testing if you haven’t before. Please take into account that these are experimental versions of the features and we can still change them before publishing them to Production.

Hello Shiny Realmers,

Happy Thanksgiving to all of our Realmers who celebrate it!
This week has been quite intense, with the release of the Fame Reworks. We can assure you that our team is working around the clock to ensure that the issues that came with it are solved very soon.

We also could not let Thanksgiving and Black Friday go by without showing you some love and appreciation, so here it is:

The Free Thanksgiving Pack awaits you in the shop! It contains a delicious Thanksgiving feast: Thanksgiving Turkey, Pumpkin Pie, Sliced Yam, Ear of Corn, and Cranberries.
The pack will be there until 11/30, 8 AM UTC.


Yes, you can buy a pack of 1000 gold for 500 gold. Pretty sweet deal right? It’s only once per account, but you can also get a pack worth 2900 gold for 2200 gold or a pack worth 11000 for only 9600 gold.
All summed up, you can get up to 2600 gold for free. Hurry up!
The promotion ends on the 28th at 12:00 UTC.

But it’s not all: starting Nov 27th at 12 PM UTC, the next 38h there will be some other extra promotions that you’ll be able to catch… by visiting the store.

Enjoy and stay tuned for more news tomorrow. And we may be prepping a “Ask Me Anything” session for you all. We will reveal the day and how it’s going to play out very soon!

Today it’s all about fame, isn’t it? Well, we couldn’t agree more. The much anticipated Fame rework is finally here.

The fame system has been reworked with the goal of creating a system that rewards a character accordingly throughout its life, no matter what kind of playstyle you may have.

The majority of fame bonuses now are separated into categories with 5 main tiers. The last tier can be repeated so you’ll be rewarded even if you’ve achieved the main goal of a category.
Fame bonuses now all grant a flat amount of fame.
Certain fame bonuses that act as milestones (Maxing and Dungeon Collection categories) reward an additional amount of fame based on a % of your base fame.

Abilities such as spells, shields and quivers should now properly increase the shots fired stats
The potions drunk stats will now properly increment no matter where you drink a potion
We’ve added the potion attribute to a lot more consumables as well, you can find a full list of all consumables that count as potions here. Keep in mind that it uses internal object ids.
Teleport stats is now only incremented via player teleportations. Prisms and other teleporting abilities no longer increment the counter.
Party Level Ups now are granted to any players who participated in the enemy’s death rather than only the one who lands the fatal shot.

11 new enemy kill stats have been added on top of the existing ones (Cubes, Gods, Oryx):
Lesser Gods: Tough enemies that inhabits the highlands and enemies that are more powerful than the rest within dungeons

• Encounters: Realm Encounters
  
• Heroes: Heroes of Oryx
  
• Critters: Insect or small animals
  
• Beasts: Big animals
  
• Humanoid: Humans or displays human like attributes
  
• Undead: Skeletons, Ghosts and the likes
  
• Nature: Closely tied to nature or of pure natural origin
  
• Construct: Artificial origins
  
• Grotesque: Horrific
  
• Structure: Breakable walls, decor and the likes.

Those stats have been distributed across all killable enemies in the game! You can find here a full list of all of those, keep in mind that some enemies may appear listed twice (for example a Beast that is also a God)
Enemy kills are now distributed to people who participated rather than only the person who dealt the last hit.

Dungeons stats have been added to almost every dungeon in the game!
Keep in mind that your previous dungeon completion stats have been reset with this update.
We mentioned some bonuses that were being removed in the past. Check them at our previous blog post. Here is the full list of the bonuses from now on, including their rewards.

To celebrate the release of Shards of the Advisor, we’ll also make them part of the Arrival event! Until the end of the event, Alien Biff and Commander Calbrik will be dropping a guaranteed 1x Shard of the Advisor, and Wormhole bosses will have the chance to drop 1x Shard of the Advisor. Stay on the lookout for more drop locations coming with later events!

Rings:

• Mayhem Medallion
  
• Ring of Wrath
  
• Autarch Amulet

Along with them, we are releasing Shard of the Advisor, which will stack up to 35 and turn into a random Agent of Oryx Ring upon consumption. Additionally, you can choose to save up 70 and turn them in for a Ring of Choice at the Tinkerer’s.

Similar to other event items, the rings gain power based on the amount of Agent of Oryx equipment you are wearing.

Check the weapons list on our blog post.

• Replaced Halloween Nexus with Autumn Nexus
  
• Added Cheerleading Bard Skin
  
• Please take into account that Dungeon Collection bonuses are currently not working properly and it will be fixed with the next update
  
• Adding option to turn on shadows for items
  
• Improved transparency
  
• Improved the laser in High Tech Terror dungeon
  
• Other small changes/fixes.

We were wondering: this has been such a peculiar year… what are we missing? Yes, you guessed correctly: Aliens! Aliens are arriving (only to the Realm, hopefully) this Thursday for a 10 day event with plenty of quests and lots of loot to grind. And this event has some peculiar oddities to it that you never seen before in an RotMG event before. You’ll only be able to get the full experience if you play throughout the whole event. As the days will be passing we will be unlocking new rewards in wormholes and rewards that, if combined, will give you the best loot.

Commander Calbrik, the acclaimed leader of his homeworld’s notorious army, is back and he’s trying to take the Realm for himself.

And do you know what’s also back? The Universal Fragments. Here’s how to get them:

Commander Calbrik will spawn once in every Realm as you cut your way through the Heroes of Oryx.
Alien Biff will spawn once in every Realm, once you defeat all the Ghost Kings
Defeating Calbrik and Alien Biff will spawn Wormholes.

• Calbrik aka Alien UFO - Universal Fragment x1
  
• Alien Biff - Universal Fragment x1
  
• Golden Sphinx (Katalund Boss) - Universal Fragment x2
  
• Suesogian (Malogia Boss) - Universal Fragment x2
  
• Tarul (Untaris Boss) - Universal Fragment x2
  
• Acidus (Forax Boss) - Universal Fragment x2

The Event will run from 11/19 - 12:00 PM UTC until 11/29 - 12:00 PM UTC

Take a look at the quest table at our blog.

And to add to this, there will be x2 XP in all wormholes throughout the whole event!

Enjoy!
And remember... the truth is out there.

We’re excited to announce that a public testing session is beginning today and throughout the weekend! Please feel free to leave feedback on the thread on the RealmEye Forums!


Fame Rework – The main purpose of this PT session is also the most hotly anticipated! We know you’ve been eager for this promised expansion of fame bonuses, and although it has taken some extra time to prepare, we’re now ready for mass testing!

Agents of Oryx – This is a two-parter! Not only will you get to try out the current versions of the Agents of Oryx accessories to complete the sets at last, but we have also taken the time to make numerous balance changes to the weapons, abilities, and armors to improve usability.

Transparency Improvements – No more black voids! With these changes, overlapping transparent sprites should no longer stack up their opacity and become hard to see through.

• New laser implementation

• The Armors display that the effect will last for 8 seconds. It lasts (properly) for 3 seconds.
  
• Some words may display truncated characters in dungeon bonuses.

For a place to write feedback, please see the RealmEye thread!
Happy testing!

Will you miss the “old versions” of The Crawling Depths, Woodland Labyrinth, and Deadwater Docks? Well, you’ve seen by now that those dungeons are getting reconstructed very soon. Still, we wanted to give you a chance to say goodbye with the “Into Shards and Pieces” event. For that, we brought back Agent of Oryx Shards!

The choice weapons and armors of Oryx’s elite were available for heroes to claim for a brief window long ago. But they have long since been forgotten to time, with Oryx in no hurry to put them in your hands again. That time is over! For now, you have another chance at assembling the items needed to don yourself in sets of the Agents of Oryx.

Check out the quests at our official blog

We heard your concerns about the scarcity of runes and the issues it raises on O3 runs. While we are looking and experimenting on better ways to solve the issues presented by our community, we would like to share with you that during three weeks, you'll have three chances to trade your fame for runes.



Once per account, and per week, you'll be able to trade 5000, 15000 and 40000 fame for Rune Fame boxes. You will get one of the three runes, or if you are lucky, all of the three.

Our testing servers will be open to the public during this weekend so that you can experience our upcoming release. We will share more information on this on Friday, the 13th.

P.S. - We apologize for starting the Shield Rune Unlock a bit later than what was announced. This time WE locked the accountable person inside of Oryx’s wine cellar. We’ll eventually get him out.
