20s of
24s July deep within the underworld lies a
27s mysterious but somewhat overlooked Place
29s governed by a mask and her loyal beings
32s sanctum of rebirth once stood as a
34s sacred Temple where many Souls would go
36s to face their final judgment and while
38s some are granted rebirth many of the
40s Unworthy souls are faced with a slightly
42s different fate over the ages the sanctum
44s of rebirth was thought to have been
45s abandoned but new Whispers from the
47s Shadows suggest that this Temple may
49s still be active working with ikin it's
52s time for you to uncover the entrance to
54s the sanctum and dispatch the new threats
56s that lie waiting for you inside
66s in this update we're super excited to
68s introduc three brand new boss encounters
70s that you can now fight inside the
72s sanctum the sanctum of rebirth is a new
74s dungeon type that we are exploring and
76s we are calling this a boss dungeon you
79s may be familiar with Elite dungeons
81s where you clear out mobs between boss
82s encounters however in a boss dungeon
85s there are no mobs to kill and instead
87s you'll simply be able to fight backto
89s back bosses as allowing you to get right
91s into the action in this boss dungeon
93s you'll come face to face with a series
95s of formidable Soul devourers each with
97s their own Unique Mechanics from vermic

129s [Music]
132s awaits you'll be able to enter the
134s sanctum Solo or in a group of up to four
137s with the dungeon and the rewards scal
139s into your team's size there are two
141s different difficulties to choose from a
143s normal mode and a hard mode we wanted to
146s design something that is approachable as
147s we want everyone to take part in the
149s sanctum of rebirth while also giving a
151s mode that allows you to show off your
153s Mary for these encounters one of the
154s areas where we're excited to hear what
156s you think is our new approach to the
158s normal difficulty in the sanctums normal
160s mode you'll be able to focus on the task
162s at hand and worry less about the
164s penalties of death as we trial some
166s changes to the death system here this
167s will allow you to learn the fight and
169s hone your combat skills without the
171s overhanging worry about the penalties of
173s death whereas sanctums hard mode will
175s remain similar to what you're used to
176s now where death is final and the rewards
178s are more lucrative so
180s what exactly are these rewards by
183s defeating each boss you will gain access
185s to the sanctum boss drop table as you
187s progress through the boss dungeon you'll
189s have an increased chance of earning
191s those rarer rewards and once you have
193s fully cleared the sanctum you'll have
195s access to an additional loop from the
196s sanctums completion drop table such as
199s the brand new tier 95 magic weapons with
201s a passive effect Guided by your feedback
204s from a recent beta these weapons are
206s available as rewards in both normal and
208s hard modes but that's not all the boss
209s drop take will contain a new God book
212s scripture of a masket a new prayer
214s Divine rage for the standard prayer book
216s an item exclusive to Hard Mode
217s completion drop table that will allow
219s you to upgrade existing tier 95 weapons
222s such as your fractur staff of armad deal
224s and a cosmetic Aura exclusive to hard
226s mode after completing a set amount of
227s dungeon runs this update has been a
229s really fun project to work on it's been
232s amazing to bring all of you with us on
234s this journey and get feedback even
235s earlier in the development process we
237s loved hearing your thoughts on our ideas
239s to try our punishing death system as
241s well as all your feedback in the beta
243s including helping decide on which tier
245s 95 magic weapons we release into the
247s live game we couldn't have brought this
248s update to life without all of your
249s feedback and as always we want to hear
251s more from you if you haven't already
