Major Changes

Over the past several years, numerous additions have been made. You can learn more about all major changes by update here. Here is a brief overview of some of the most impactful changes:

Housing. A balloon was added to every major city that lets you access your own private island to build on, as well as your guild’s.

Professions. Four resource-gathering professions and eight crafting professions were added to the game for you to make your own weapons, armor, jewelry, and consumables.

Raids. Four raids were added to the game. These are dungeon-like challenges that are intended to be completed with a party of four.

Lootruns. A new gamemode replaced the old method of lootrunning. Currently, there are five lootruns.

The Ocean Expansion, The Gavel Expansion, The Corkus Expansion, and the Silent Expansion. More provinces were added to the game, four expansions, with a fifth slated for release sometime soon.

Annihilation. A new endgame boss was added, Annihilation, which is only able to be fought every three days. It is normally fought in parties of five to ten players at max level.

Where to Start

Depending on when you left and for how long, your gap in knowledge may vary. If you want to avoid being overwhelmed with too much information at once, it may be wise to start a new character. Much of the early game has changed, with quests being added, revamped, or removed entirely, and it may ease you into the new changes better than trying to resume the game with a fully leveled character.
