Ladder season 3 begins December 27
Ladder season 3 is called "The Evil Mist". The Evil Mist is a method for the invaders to almost effortlessly planeshift hordes of creatures into the material plane. The mist is created by Mist Beings that simply breathe it. The mist is multidimensional, sifting through the weave between planes, jumping from place to place. It is always present in a single area and changes location frequently.
Major features of this update include:
Four new classes: Doomcaster, Avenger, Knight and Mystic.
Four new crafting options: Enhance, Imbue, Sap and Transform.
Beacons: Objects you can activate to make an area more difficult for one minute, adding rewards.
Catalysts: Items that grant short-duration skills called Surges.
More than 20 new skills.
More than 20 build-around unique items.
A major change has also been made to the skill system. In the old system, each skill had a level between 1 and 20. In the new system, you either have a skill or not. Once picked, a skill has maximum effect immediately, though its power scales with character level. You pick one skill on level 1 and then one every four levels (4, 8, etc) for 26 total at level 100.
The season beings December 27 at 16:00 GMT. Join us on Discord for spoilers, questions and discussion: https://discord.gg/6ZzbGM.

Announcing Event Server
Today, we are announcing a new type of server called event server. This week's event is called "Elite Forces". All monsters have much more life and damage and instant kill chance is capped at 1%. However, all monsters drop more gold.
The regular servers will still be running so you can play on either server with any character.
We are also announcing a "pro challenge": Make a new character on an event server and play to level 100. Whoever makes the fastest speedrun on an event server will get ten million gold reward next week. If you make the speedrun in a party, gold reward will be shared between party members.
Check Discord for speedrunning rules.
