Hey everyone! The countdown is down to the final stretch. The brand-new Valtherra Season officially goes live in exactly 3 hours (at 17:00 CEST / 11:00 AM EDT) alongside a 40% discount for the Steam Summer Sale!
Whether you are a returning veteran or diving into the infinite scaling for the very first time, the seasonal ladders are completely fresh from Level 1.
At season selection, you can now opt into four distinct, fresh server ladders:
Standard Season (Group up and conquer)
Solo (SSF) (Pure self-found progression)
Hardcore (HC) (Permadeath rules apply)
Hardcore Solo (HC SSF) (The ultimate test of survival)
Note: Your existing legacy characters and data are completely untouched and safely archived in the old servers list!
Keep your eyes peeled while clearing your maps, molten Valtherra areas can now spawn dynamically inside the Nexus and Dungeon layouts.
Earn Favor: Clear the encounter to earn Favor Points.
Meet Sam: Successfully completing an encounter summons Sam, a unique merchant offering a rotating stock of incredibly cool rewards in exchange for your Favor.
Empowered Encounters: There is a rare chance to trigger an Empowered Valtherra Encounter. It is significantly more dangerous, but the rewards are massive.
We have added a permanent meta-progression framework to the endgame!
Complete specific, challenging tasks across the Nexus to earn Mastery Points.
Spend points to permanently upgrade your endgame content, map modifiers, and reward drops.
Account-Wide Progress: You only need to complete these tasks once per season server. All your current and future characters on that same server will instantly inherit your Mastery progression!
To push build variety and infinite scaling theorycrafting to their absolute limits, the passive skill tree has been completely overhauled and expanded to over 500 total nodes. Discover entirely new vertical stat-stacking pathways and build synergies.
Two entirely new playstyles enter the arena this season, supported by 12 brand-new skill gems:
Umbral Brood
Shockwave Core
The world map has expanded with roughly 40 new dungeons. Furthermore, a brand new progression layer has been added: once you successfully complete all dungeons, you unlock the ability to upgrade the difficulty and rewards of all dungeons up to 10 times.
We are introducing a suite of brand-new visual upgrades to celebrate the new season! Express your style and customize your look with the following additions:
5 Valtherra-Specific Character Cosmetics: Completely overhaul your character's appearance with premium, season-themed armor designs.
5 Valtherra-Specific Skill Cosmetics: Change the visual effects of your favorite abilities to match the molten power of the Valtherra season.
Cross-Platform Readiness: The game is now fully optimized and functional with unified, smooth cloud-saving across Android, iOS, and Steam.
Item Power Requirements: Character power requirements have been added to all items. Moving forward, items will no longer generate without both a power and a level requirement.
Potential Orbs: Increased the global drop rate from 2% to 5%.
Steam Microtransactions: Brought the premium Gem purchase directly onto the secure Steam backend.
Asset Visuals: Fully updated and polished the environment assets for the Monolith encounter.
