content auto translated from {from}

In the MMORPG "Allods Online", a new subscription server "Spark of Greatness" has been launched for those who wish to start their journey in the world of Sarnaut from scratch and quickly find themselves on equal terms with other adventurers. As with other servers, a major update 17.1 has been installed, which includes a plot continuation, the return of legendary activities, class reworks, as well as new PvP modes, a ranked map, and a revamped equipment system.

"Spark of Greatness": accelerated start and equal opportunities

Players on the "Spark of Greatness" server will be greeted with a comprehensive bonus system designed for accelerated progress and comfortable immersion in the gameplay. The main emphasis is on increasing the leveling speed: characters will gain increased Spark experience, level up faster, and earn all the main in-game currencies.

Particular attention on the new server is given to the convenience of equipment and changing gaming roles. Players will have the freedom to change their character class without any limitations, and to facilitate the collection of equipment, there will be an increased chance of dropping complete Dragon Form items on the server. A convenient exchange mechanic will be implemented: unnecessary complete items can be disassembled into Dragon Scales and exchanged at a special merchant in the capital for the necessary Seals, allowing for a quicker assembly of the needed set.

New players can access the server for free for two weeks from the moment of registration.

Update 17.1: a new milestone in the plot, the return of the Arena of Heroes and class changes

The "Allods Online" team brings back one of the most beloved group challenges: the Arena of Heroes is once again open for all who wish to test their perseverance in battles against hordes of mighty enemies. Players await an updated rewards system, new tactical challenges, and, most importantly, the complete removal of restrictions on accessing the activity.

The storyline that began in update 17.0 on the allod Kvator, where the fate of the Kanian kingdom was at stake, and Svetlana Valirskaya was trying to regain lost power amidst the grim ruins of Kvator, receives a tragic continuation. Players will have to rescue prisoners, stop the undead army, and find out to whom Svetlana truly serves - herself or the whisper from the Looking Glass.

For players, an updated career window has opened, enhancing the convenience of working with abilities and milestones of the character:

  • Growth milestones and the abilities tree are displayed simultaneously;
  • Abilities and milestones are highlighted upon hovering and can be added to the list;
  • Dead water no longer resets everything at once, allowing for pinpoint changes without having to redistribute everything again;
  • Switching to the old interface is available in the settings.

In addition to the plot continuation and the return of the Arena of Heroes, players can expect a new large-scale battle "Lair of the Basilisks" in a 12×12 format, a fifth map for ranked duels "Terraces of Valirov" (available for 3×3 and 6×6 modes), as well as a revamped equipment acquisition system - six types of astralium tokens have been replaced with three, and new resources can be freely sold and transferred to other players.

Class changes: long-awaited balance adjustments for the Mystic and Engineer classes

  • Engineer: the Assault aspect will undergo significant revision to increase damage, especially at the beginning of battles and against groups of opponents. The mechanics for controlling bombs will become more user-friendly and intuitive.
  • Mystic: the rework aims to expand build variability. The Support aspect will become more relevant due to enhanced control and defensive abilities, while the "Dominance" stat will change its functionality: it will now increase damage for each summoned phantom, and the lifespan of phantoms will become fixed and comfortable for rotation.

Update 17.1 and the new subscription server "Spark of Greatness" are already available on the VK Play and Astrum Play platforms.
