Justac 10th Anniversary: Awakening of the Ancients

We would like to present to you a new episode of Justac Archlord.
We have implemented completely new mechanics into the game. Starting with endgame itemization, monster spawn mechanic, and effects added into gameplay.
We will try to briefly present the significant changes.

With Awakening of the Ancients, we are continuing our design process, which places importance on front simplicity and intuitive gameplay. We also didn’t forget about in-game economy, so our designs still reflect huge needs for simple materials that even new players can get. With new monsters we have prepared a new improved drop system for the Shinewood area. In Addition to the natural drop chance of items, encountered monsters drop guaranteed fragments that can be combined into the main source of new items. So even if luck won’t be on your side, you will still obtain your drop goals. We have refreshed existing in-game challenges like RvR fight, where we have added decent reward for every killed boss, or Eclipse challenge with few new area rules and refresh damage and behavior of main boss.

Episode area: Shinewood.
Challenge: Waves of monsters from the Ancient Chantra ages (Lv 150).
Player hostility: Yellow zone.
Potions: Small Recovery Potion, Medium Recovery Potion, Large Recovery Potion.
Additional restrictions: blocked summon orbs, roundrip passports, gate of phantom - Shinewood area + bordering areas

Why did we choose this area? The previously prepared Proving Ground area turned out to be too small for our needs, so in accordance with the players' preferences, we used a completely open space instead of underground mazes that caused problems for many players. The map has several levels of height, there are places where you can run and chase, there are places where you can hide.

Endgame itemization, Justac Forge Mechanic allows you to push your equipment to its limits by reforging them with new Forgotten blacksmith tools, Forgotten Shard and Rune.
