Hilo Vikings!

It truly warms our hearts to see you taking down Giants, Linnorms, Trölls, and many other
creatures of Midgard left and right.

However, who said we couldn't look even better doing it? In case you haven't heard yet,
Gearbox Publishing and our team at Norsfell have partnered with CORSAIR to enable
CORSAIR iCUE integration.



PC players can now take the action beyond their screen and have their PC gaming peripherals
engage and interact with everything that is happening, enhancing the overall experience.

With the Mid-Saga update coming up so soon, we wanted to kick things off with a CORSAIR
raffle! The all-mighty Odin and CORSAIR have blessed us with some awesome raffle items.

Three lucky winners will be able to win The VOID RGB ELITE USB gaming Headset, K60 RGB
PRO SE Gaming Keyboard, and SCIMITAR RGB ELITE Gaming Mouse.

The raffle will come to an end on October 1, 2021.
Enter here: https://gleam.io/e1f0Y/corsair-x-gearbox-sweepstakes



Be sure to show us your PC setup with CORSAIR iCUE integration on social media and let us
know how many Giants you and your fellowship of Vikings manage to take down!

We're looking forward to the Mid-Saga update, and are glad to hold another raffle with the folks
at CORSAIR. Good luck, Vikings!

Hiló Vikings!

We hope you're ready... the Mid-Saga Update is coming to Tribes of Midgard on October 5!

We took one more week just to polish things up, hence why this update comes in the first week of October, instead of September. This brings us right into spooky month, fitting for our Valhalloween event!

This update features:

• 🐺 Alternative Fenrir
  
• 🎃 Halloween Event
  
• ✨ New Challenges
  
• ☄️ New Starter Kits & Runes
  
• ⚔️ Combat/Blessings updates
  
• 🐛 Bug fixes/QoL/Optims

Some Quick FAQ:

• Your Season Level will NOT reset during this update.
  
• You will NOT lose previous Starter Kits and Runes. This update builds upon those!
  
• Challenges will be additional, to the ones already existing.

Be sure to join our Discord for even more, and to hang out with our community!

We can't wait for you to dive in and try out these new additions, challenges, and that ominous alternative Fenrir... what are you most excited for?

See you soon,

The Norsfell Team 🗻

Hi Vikings,

Update: Maintenance has ended as of 11:00 am EDT
We are currently (Sept 1 at 8am EDT) going into maintenance to prepare for today’s update! We expect the maintenance period to last for about 2 hours. During this time, players may not be able to join a game session but won't be removed from one.🐺 In the meantime, here are today's update notes!

- Available with the wolf-1.10 update

• A R4VEN.MK.III Pet has found its way into your collection of Cosmetics. Navigate to the Pets section of the Customize menu to take a look for yourself!
  
  • This mysterious device arrived bearing an encrypted runic sequence that reads:
    "To all of our Einherjar, I am sending you this raven drone to celebrate the official launch of our glorious mission on July 27th of Midgard Year 2021. We thank you for your patience while we continuously improve the game and your experience. May it watch over you and your tribe. Your support is worth more to us than the Nine Realms combined." - Sincerely, Techno Oðinn.

• Saga Mode
  
  • Added Bomblings and Sirelings to Helthing attack waves during Fimbulwinter
    
  • Norsfell: This change should make the continuous night defenses of Fimbulwinter more challenging and more interesting for those who wish to brave Saga Mode’s late game.
• Survival Mode - Easy
  
  • Increase to Creature, Helthings and Jötunn Difficulty
• Survival Mode - Medium and Hard
  
  • Moderate increase to Creature, Helthings and Jötunn Difficulty
    
  • Slight increase to Jötunn HP, Armor and Attack Multiplier as they level up
    
  • Norsfell: We are putting additional efforts into fine-tuning the difficulty of Survival Mode to make it a bit more engaging and challenging for players, both in early game and as the Days progress.
• Bosses
  
  • Decreased the amount of Souls granted for defeating Fenrir by 30%
    
  • Decreased the amount of Souls granted for defeating Jötunn by 6% overall
    
  • Norsfell: The Souls economy is integral to the game and we’re continuing to fine-tune the yield from all sources for a more balanced experience. We felt the very high amount of Souls awarded for defeating Fenrir, for example, were supplying late-game players a little too well as they prepared for the attrition of Fimbulwinter.
  [/i]

Quests

• Adjusted the rewards and increased the number of them granted for completing Quests
  
• Souls awarded for completed Quests are now adjusted based on the labelled Difficulty of the Quest, with Hard awarding the most and Easy awarding the least.

Hi Vikings!

It’s been quite a busy past few weeks, and we hope you’re loving your adventures through Midgard so far. We just reached a milestone of 750,000+ players, and we can’t thank you enough for all the support!

We’ve been listening to your feedback here, on our socials, and in our Discord - and want to be sure to communicate as much as we can with you. Today, we want to give you a heads up that there will be a Maintenance Update next week!

In this update, here’s a preview of a few issues you can expect to be resolved:

• Fixed an issue in which the Warden would lose their 6th Rune slot after Saving and Quitting then returning
  
• Fixed an issue where the number of Golden Horns would sometimes inaccurately display well above the maximum of 99 after taking the Bifröst
  
• Fixed an issue in which defeating a Jötunn with an Enchanted Tripwire would wrongfully attribute the glory to Oðinn
  
• Fixed an issue in which the petting prompt for your Pet could interfere with other interactions, like opening Chests. Now your Pets will have to wait their turn!

We're aware and hard at work on a few persistent issues, including a bug that has some players missing XP after a session. Next week's update aims to improve this behavior, but if it persists, we'll continue to need your help getting to the root of the issue. The team really appreciates your patience and continued communication on this.

Stay tuned for the full breakdown and notes for the update. Looking forward to next week!

See you soon,
The Norsfell Team
