Greetings Adventurers,

This new PTR release should be music to your ears! We’ve introduced the new social game system of musical instruments and performance! Bards, rejoice!

Musical Instruments

Musical Instruments are a rhythm-action based trade skill coming to Aeternum that make the world a stage! There are 5 instruments for players to pick up and learn, plus an initial 31 songs to collect and master! You can play solo, or as a group with up to 5 Adventurers. These musical instruments include:

  • Guitar
  • Mandolin
  • Upright Bass
  • Drums
  • Azoth Flute

Songs are unlocked by salvaging pages hidden throughout Aeternum. Complete the Summer Medleyfaire quests to earn a special set of pages and starter instruments. Better instruments can be crafted through the Furnishing trade skill. Furnishing can also roll new Music trade skill specific perks.

Press the F5 key to initiate a perf...

Greetings Adventurers,

With this PTR release, we’re rolling out a series of additional quality-of-life improvements that should make your time in the new Barnacles & Black Powder expedition (and more) that more worthwhile!

Expedition Group Finder (Same World)

Finding a group to run expeditions with while solo isn’t always easy when you need to ask through Chat. So we are excited to release our first version of the Group Finder tool for expeditions! With this feature, you’ll be able to access a specific Group Finder for each expedition (accessed through expedition entrance UI or related expedition map icons), browse listings created by other players, or post your own request. The tool allows players to declare their preferred team role — such as DPS, Tank, or Healer — and recruit based on those roles. You can also set minimum Gear Score and Level, then inspect members to learn their average GS, weapons, and mastery levels.

You can even frame your favorite catches for your home at new Mount-A-Catch stations found in every village! Come let loose and celebrate life on the island of Eternal Life!

Please let us know how you’ve enjoyed this piece of content on the PTR! In particular, we’re especially keen on feedback relating to story narrative, world integration and set-dressing, reward-for-effort balance, objective cl...

Greetings Adventurers,

With this PTR release, we’ve made further changes to the way loot and perks work across the game!

Perk Rebalance

We have examined the meta and its issues impacting endgame viability. With this update we adjusted over 150 perks to help make them more useful and competitive compared to the best perks in the game. Skill-specific weapon perks are now more powerful, with some receiving substantial rework to be more viable. For example, we buffed the Durability perk and renamed it to “Indestructible” because players will no longer take durability damage when it is equipped.

We also tweaked how perks are calculated in order to provide players with more options for better perk combinations. For example, the trade skill drop chance on earrings now has a very low drop chance on drops to increase the combat focused perks players get from earrings. These perks can still be controlled via crafting using their specif...

We just implemented the fix so it’s highly possible that you wrote your post right before it was put in. Seems to be working for others on that other post.

Fix is in, you will need to relog to pick up the change (no download). Let me know if for some reason the relog didn’t work for you.
