Location Updates

Snow is melting in the warm locations on your side of the river. The Western Lands remain cold, as does the North.
Variety

Pine Thicket and Stone Foothills are now more diverse. Two additional variants have been added for these location types — enjoy greater variety!
Exile spawn points at locations are no longer fixed. Use different strategic approaches when gathering resources.

Scarlet Hunt

The Scarlet Hunt begins.

The event is available to all Exiles from level 6 and will last for 3 weeks.

Sir Rihardt returns to the Plaguelands. Don’t miss his tasks if you seek a challenge!

After the Hunt ends, you will have 3 days to claim all earned rewards. If something especially caught your eye but you couldn't reach the reward you were aiming for, you can always purchase Scarlet Hunt Seals in the store.

New Items

Garden Bed Upgrade

Spring is the time to sow! Exiles can now upgrade their Garden Bed to level 2 and plant twice as many seeds in it.
To upgrade, you will need a Garden Bed Design Lvl 2 and Leather Hose.
The design can be found in the following locations:
  • Treasure of the Damned
  • Merchant Escort
  • Barbarian Camp
  • Necromancer's Lair
  • Cursed Observatory
  • Virbjorn's Lair
  • Dead Village
  • Fallen Knight
  • Broken Cart
To find a Leather Hose, you should visit:
  • Treasure of the Damned
  • Cursed Observatory
  • Dead Village
Upgrade your Garden Beds, and hunger will no longer be a threat!

Master Archer's Pannier

Missed your shot? No problem!
Participants in the Scarlet Hunt can obtain the Master Archer's Pannier — a 20-slot bag that gives a chance to fire a second arrow when using a bow or crossbow.
This chance stacks with the Combat Mastery: Bows and Crossbows skill as well as with bonuses from the Imperial Jaeger Set.

Other Changes

Lore Scrolls

More chapters of the dark history of the Plaguelands have been revealed.
Several new scrolls telling the story of Master Karn have been added to the game.
They can be found in secret rooms of the Dungeon of the Torturers.

Shield Activity

The shield block button now highlights when the shield is charged and ready to use. You won't miss the moment to protect yourself from an incoming blow!

Mini-Map

Terrain display on the mini-map has been improved. Water is now blue, and pits are visually distinct from obstacles. A good map is half the battle when planning your tactics.

Store Changes

Quick Stack
Exiles with a VIP subscription can use the Quick Stack feature.
While in your castle, press the stack button, and items from your inventory will be moved to the appropriate storage in your castle.
Items are placed into chests and shelves that already contain similar items.

The distribution priority is as follows:
  • Surface storage. The storage with the most of the required items fills first.
  • Shelves are filled before chests.
  • Basement storage is filled last.
Time for spring cleaning!

New Offers

New bundles have been added to the store for the following encounters:
  • Master Karn
  • Silver Mine
  • Ancient Sepulcher
  • Cradle of Corruption
Optimal armor and weapons for those who don't want to spend time assembling gear and are eager to jump straight into battle.

Grim Soul Hub Changes

New Offer

The Berserker Pack is now available in the Hub Store. This starter pack is perfectly suited for entering the world of the Plaguelands.

Daily Rewards

Previously, daily rewards were only available in the Hub during events.
Now, when no special events are active, Exiles will receive daily rewards with a standard set of items. Nothing useless — everything will come in handy!

Random Pannier

Feeling lucky? In this new pannier offer, all the odds are laid out before you. Only the finest and most valuable panniers for the most stylish Exiles.

Loyalty Program

It's active again! Exiles who make purchases in the Hub will receive additional rewards alongside their purchases.

See you in the Plaguelands!
