“We’re thrilled to close the year with this major update, bringing not only new content but also significant improvements to core systems like PvP balancing and the Reputation ranking,” said Jophiel, Game Designer for NosTale. “This update reflects our commitment to listening to our players, who have passionately voiced their ideas and feedback. It’s exciting to deliver a refreshed Act 4 experience and new challenges designed especially for our most dedicated community members, and we can’t wait to see how they embrace these changes and celebrate the holiday season in NosTale.”
Gameforge’s NosTale team has focused on transforming Act 4 – The Frozen Crown, once the game’s most popular PvP (player versus player) area, to make it even more rewarding and engaging again for players, especially those with high-level characters. The revamp addresses current imbalances and exploits, such as, for example, reputation farming, while introducing exclusive titles and rewards for Act 4 challengers. Act 4: The Frozen Crown – The Legend Reborn also introduces NosTale’s popular Christmas and New Year’s events, allowing players to celebrate the holidays in-game with special raids, daily quests, and seasonal rewards.
Key Features of Act 4: The Frozen Crown – The Legend Reborn:
- Revitalized Act 4 – The Frozen Crown: This PvP area has been transformed to appeal to all players, including those with Champion-level characters. A newly designed Contribution Point system and monthly reset will enhance the competitive experience, offering exclusive titles and items to top players.
- Reputation System Rework: Reputation earned within the current month will contribute to the ranking, which will reset monthly. Act 4 will no longer impact the overall reputation ranking, and players can enjoy an expanded system with a new cap of 1 billion points. Monthly rewards will be distributed based on players’ standings.
- New PvP Boss – Frostbite Amarok: Introducing NosTale’s new world boss: Frostbite Amarok, a formidable foe appearing in Act 4’s “Amarok’s Hideout.” With set spawn times on weekdays, this boss promises engaging battles and rare loot for those who participate.
- Champion Level Raids: 4 newly balanced raids have been added for Champion-level players, giving high-level characters the challenges and rewards they seek, including valuable materials and unique upgrades.
- Shell Upgrade System: The new upgrade system enhances equipment, with items like Shell Stabilizers and Shell Powder introduced to enable progressive shell upgrades, keeping gear competitive.
- Holiday Festivities – Christmas and New Year Events: Players can dive into the holiday spirit with beloved events like the Snowman and Maru Raids, Winter Daily Quests, and the New Year’s login bonuses.
This latest update reflects Gameforge’s commitment to enhancing NosTale’s gameplay by listening to community feedback and delivering a more balanced and exciting experience for all. The team will continue monitoring community feedback to adjust and perfect new features post-launch.
