Game Update 3.8 is here, bringing 2 new events, 5 new item pieces, revamped challenges, Empire City improvements, structure, ritual, and Warlord upgrades. Players can now complete their Barrow Armour set by engaging in the new ‘On Rotten Wings’ event!
Here are the full patch notes for update 3.8:
On Rotting Wings
A new event, ‘On Rotting Wings’ will be added to the game. In this event, Terrorgheists disturbed from their lairs descend upon tattered wings, their lethal screams heralding doom!
Across the Old World, the Terrorghiest can be found, these elite foes will be appearing at levels 8, 9 and 10. These rotting giant bats are a severe threat and will need to be tackled by only the strongest of Chaos Champions.
The Terrorgheist will potentially drop a Decayed Wing Membrane, which can be used in turn to craft the final 2 pieces of the Barrow armour set, Gauntlets and Plate Armour. The Barrow set has also been improved with additional set bonuses.
New Event - Scourge of Chaos
Across the Old World, resources of all types will be looted and pillaged by the forces of Chaos.
A new cross-region gain resource challenge will be added which will run during this event, expect to see level 10 and above resource nodes across the Old World.
