The new year began and we are starting it with a bang. Our first Public Testing session this year will introduce you to a new upcoming dungeon from Mizumi (and more as you will find out). In order to fully test and understand the dungeon, you will find portals to it in the Nexus. The new UTs that will drop from the dungeon can be found in the in-game Shop. The game version also includes updates to Unity, so if you find any visual bugs or issues, please report them to us. The PT ends on Monday at 9 AM CET. Let's give the stage to Mizumi.

You can find all the Infos about Moonlight Village on our Blog.

Realmers!

Last week we updated you on the progress on the Seasonal Gratitude Event. Now it's time to reveal if you, as a community, were able to beat our objectives or if the Marble Colossus was able to stay strong.
Additionally, we are launching our first in-game Leaderboard Event today! Go check out all the information about that down below.
“Seasonal Gratitude” Event

Well it shouldn't be a surprise but the community was able to beat all 3 Objectives on their Seasonal Characters! This means that you have earned one week of free O3, and O3 chest event and every player that contributed to the objective will be granted the new Chibi Oryx Pet Skin!

Let's have a look at what you were able to archive.

Objective 1: Required 12750 Points to complete, you were able to collect 13054 Points. That's 102% of the goal.

Objective 2: Required 8500 Points to complete, you were able to collect 16690 Points. That's 196% of the goal.

Objective 3: Required 4675 Points to complete, you were able to collect 7230 Points. That's 155% of the goal.

The O3 event is going live today at 12 UTC and will end on the 12th of December at 12 UTC.


To have a look at the O3 Chest Loot and the Leaderboard Event, have a look at our Blogpost.

Realmers!

Another weekend, another time to test out new features. This time you will once again be able to test the Seasonal Characters and another small surprise (read below)!
You are wondering what Seasonal Characters are? No worries we got you covered with our previous news regarding them. Check them out here.
Questions about Steamworks and interested in how it looks? More things to read here. (Steamworks is not part of this Testing Session)


With the rework of the Bleeding condition alongside the Warrior set, a maximum ‘bleed cap’ of 1% was added to all bosses and gods. This would prevent them from losing more than 1% of their maximum health per second, regardless of the number of applied Bleed Stacks. It was a step added to make sure that nobody was able to suddenly bleed Oryx to death through the new system, causing significant balance issues. However, it also meant that bleeding weapons used on lower-level bosses would do less damage. IE - a boss with only 900 HP would bleed a maximum of 9 points per second, while one with 90,000 hit by the same weapon could bleed for 900 per second.
As a result of reviewing the situation, the bleed cap for all entities has been removed. They will now default to 50% of their maximum life, which is a hard-coded value to prevent things from getting too out of hand.


Surprise! Let us introduce another new feature that will change the Event landscape in the near future. Leaderboards! Ever wondered who is the fastest in clearing a Dungeon? Well now is the time to find out. We will activate the first Leaderboard for Wetlands with this testing session. Try your best to beat the Heart of the Wetlands and be fast with it! In order to make this easier for you, we have placed portals to the dungeon in the Nexus.



Let us know what you think!

Realmers!

You have tested them in the past weeks and now it's time to enjoy them on our live servers. Seasonal Characters arrive in Realm of the Mad God! Keep in mind that Missions are not quite ready yet but will come in the very near future. Additionally, we have prepared an Event for you to chase to unlock some perks. But you have to play a seasonal character to take part in them!

Seasonal Characters

Seasonal Characters are characters which apply special rules for the duration of a season. Rules will be described before each new season.
Seasons have a defined start and end date that also will regulate Battlepass as part of our Seasonality feature.

Players will be able to create a regular character or use a seasonal one.
After the season is over, the character is automatically converted to a regular one.


Seasonal Characters get a permanent +10% BXP bonus during the whole season. This means that, while you cannot equip gear obtained in the past, your progress is accelerated when playing them. This feature is however under development and will come at a later point.

Also, one of the most interesting aspects of Seasonal Characters is their exclusive access to Missions, another upcoming feature that will allow your Seasonal Characters to do certain tasks and obtain unique rewards and BXP, only available for the season. Regular characters cannot participate in missions though!

To find out everything about this update, have a look at our blog.

Realmers!

Another week, another public testing session! You will once again be able to create Seasonal Characters but additionally, you can now have a look at our new Mission Feature and how it all works together. We adjusted some things for our new upcoming dungeon, Steamworks, and give you a first glance at the Emote System.

Realmers!

While we are approaching Oryxmas in a little bit over a month (don't quote me on that), we have a new update coming your way. Last weekend you were able to test our new feature, “Seasonal Characters” and while they are not ready yet to be released, we hope that you enjoyed the feature so far. We are still open for any feedback you can think of.

It is also time for the Assassin and Necromancer ST Tokens to start dropping from dungeons today and we have some events in those dungeons!
Go check out the update down below.


Thanksgiving is just around the corner at the end of the month and in preparation, it's once again a great time to celebrate with some 1.5x dungeon loot and XP.

Starting on the 8th of August, until the 15th of August, you will receive 1.5x Loot and XP from the Fungal and Crystal Cavern, the Puppet Master’s Encore, the Cnidarian Reef, Lost Halls, Cultist Hideout and the Void.

Starting on the 17th of August and lasting until the 21st of August a double realm whites event will be active.

All events will as always start and end at 12 AM UTC on their respective days.


The newest Assassin and Necromancer ST Tokens for crafting their respective ST Sets will now drop from:

• Alchemist Assassin Set Token will drop from the Cnidarian Reef at a 2% chance.
  
• Shaman Necromancer Set Token will drop from Puppet Master's Encore at a 2% chance.
  
• Alchemist Assassin Set Token will drop at a 5% chance, and Shaman Necromancer Set Token at a 3.75% chance in the Fungal Cavern.
  
• Shaman Necromancer Set Token will drop at a 5% chance, and Alchemist Assassin Set Token at a 3.75% chance in the Cultist Hideout.

• Fixed a problem in Sulfurous Wetlands where the portal wasn’t flashing before expiring.
  
• The Halloween Nexus and Gods Reskins left the Realm.
  
• Fixed an issue with the Shatters Rehearsal Crown not dropping from the Kings Rehersal Fight.
  
• Fixed an issue of the new Wetlands UTs showing up in the Forge when selecting STs.

Realmers!

This weekend we have something a little bit different coming up on our testing servers. As some of you might remember from our Producer Letter earlier this year, we are still working on our Seasonality feature.

This weekend you will be able to test Seasonal Characters. In order to fully test this feature we will have two different seasons active. The first starts today on Friday and lasts until Saturday noon. Once the first season is over, season 2 will start five minutes later and last until Monday 6 AM UTC. In order to make testing easier, we reduced the amount of BXP needed for the Battlepass on our Testing Server.

Per design, you won't be able to purchase the exalted pass in the last 24 hours of the season.


Seasonal Characters are a new way to play RotMG. When you create a new character, you can choose to make them ‘Seasonal'.

To find out more about Seasonal Characters, check out our Blog post.

Spooky spooky Realmers!

The end of the month is approaching and this means we are ready to celebrate Halloween! Additionally, you might now be able to access our newest dungeon in Realm of the Mad God. The Sulfurous Wetlands created by MOONSHOOT! Make sure to enter the dungeon with the right attire and don't get yourself wet.


Our Nexus once again received a Reskin that fits more to the theme of Halloween. Additionally, some of our gods got hit by loose spells and transformed into their alter egos.

• Cube God
  
• Cube Overseer
  
• Cube Defender
  
• Cube Blaster
  
• Grand Sphinx
  
• Hermit God
  
• Hermit Minion
  
• Hermit God Tentacle
  
• Water Mine
  
• Beach Spectre
  
• Vengeful Spirit
  
• Ghost Ship

As a branch fell into the water, a faint sizzle played. Sinking deeper and deeper into the murky depths, the branch remained intact, almost as if it yearned to ingrain itself at the bottom of the acidic bog. After a short wait, it hit the mire's floor, becoming one of the many interconnected pieces of the warped puzzle. The sphere of influence grew for the now dormant heart. Solitude across the generations has led to only involuntary expansion. The failure of a curse, the madness spawned from the desire for power, both culminated to this endpoint.

Suddenly, a new energy emerged seemingly out of nowhere. The roots of the once beloved willow tree rustled beneath the muddied earth, almost as if it was reaching out to reclaim the days of old.
Welcome to the Sulfurous Wetlands.

The Wetlands will be dropping from a new godlands mob: The Grand Dragonfly, with its availability being akin to mobs such as the Sting Spider, Corsair Crab, and Great Owl. It shares a similar difficulty level as the counterparts above and aims to give the area another challenging yet rewarding experience.

Special thanks are going out to everyone involved in creating this dungeon!

Leads: MOONSHOOT
Design and Art: TLMaelstrom
Special Thanks: Aurum, Kiddforce, Lily, MaggieMagi, Mizumi, Sues, Toastrz



Let's have a first look at the items you are going to find inside the Wetlands.



We are looking forward to your feedback about the Wetlands!

• Added new Player Titles
  
• The Swamp, acquired when you complete 5 Sulfurous Wetlands.
  
• Monster, acquired when you complete 50 Sulfurous Wetlands.

Let's start the Halloween season off with some Realm Events. From the 25th of October, until the 8th of November the Totalia is guaranteed in the realm 3 times. You will receive 1 Black Petunia and Raven Feather per kill.
Additionally, the Zombie Horde is guaranteed in the realm and appears after the Cyclops Gods are killed.

A bunch of Chest Events will come over the next 2 weeks. The loot will be posted every time an event starts on the official Realm Discord and on our social media channels. Additionally, every final boss of a dungeon event will drop 1 Token.
