A major addition has been released for «Allods Online»

Employees of Astrum Entertainment announced an update to their MMORPG Allods Online to version 17.0. The update was titled «Blood of Kings». In it, players will get acquainted with the city of Kvator in Zagorye, where Queen Svetlana Valirskaya is attempting to regain full power, as well as mechanics designed to simplify tasks for newcomers and adjustments to the class system. Additionally, it was decided to reset the names of inactive characters so that more dedicated gamers could use them. Let's discuss what else is interesting about the latest autumn update of the Russian game.

All heroes that have not been used for more than three years have been deleted. At the same time, support for 32-bit game clients has been discontinued — now it can only be launched on a 64-bit operating system. Meanwhile, developers have raised the maximum character level to 120 and allowed newcomers to avoid the routine of tutorial quests. People who have just begun to get acquainted with the world of Sarnaut are free to skip the storyline and immediately head to the allod Ney, where the character will undergo quick training and receive level 115. Activities have also been added for those who prefer not to rush events. If you are only level 10, you can go catch malachite lizards for rewards or obtain drops of dead and living water.

All classes have undergone changes — starting with adjustments to PvP balance and ending with individual improvements such as adding damage to the wizards' «Shock Discharge». With the patch release, guilds have had their accumulated Fame reset, and heroes have had their Astral keys reset. Only those who reach the maximum level of progression will be able to acquire these items again. In this case, you will immediately be given 42 starting astral keys. Additionally, the hulls of all ships have been strengthened. As for trials, access to the Observatory, Sadrok Palace, and Nihaz Citadel will appear on December 11.
