Runes of Magic: New Adventures in Shadows over the Altar
Celebrating its 15th anniversary, the free-to-play MMORPG Runes of Magic has rolled out yet another epic adventure for its devoted players. Gameforge, the game’s publisher, recently announced the launch of a gripping endgame challenge named Shadows over the Altar. Set to go live on April 25, this update promises to ramp up the stakes for veteran players.
Rediscovering the Mystic Altar
Shadows over the Altar is the latest addition to the Timeless Dungeon series, reintroducing the mystical site known as the Mystic Altar. However, this is not the sanctuary players might remember. It is a distorted, more menacing version that pits players against a fusion of former allies and old adversaries, not to mention seven formidable bosses in the newly toughened Mystic Altar (Hard) instance.
Entry Requirements and Player Eligibility
This challenge is exclusively available to players who have mastered their classes to level 100, unlocked peak levels, and completed the pivotal Knowledge of the Ancestors quests from the realm of Shamar. Designed for the elite, this chapter is hailed as one of the most intense in the entire 15-year saga of Runes of Magic.
Team Dynamics and Boss Battles
Teams of up to 12 players can band together to tackle this dark trial. Players will face a gauntlet of enhanced foes including the brand-new boss, Aukuda the Hero, and returning villains like Razeela, Dorlos, and the Flaming Nightmare, all boasting tougher, endgame-level challenges.
Rewards for the Victorious
The rewards match the risk. Heroes who prevail in the Mystic Altar (Hard) will earn not only glory but also powerful gear and valuable loot. Each boss defeat guarantees loot drops, while Mystic Chests gathered during the adventure can be exchanged with adventurer Loric for the coveted Accessories of the Mystic.
Availability and Access
Runes of Magic continues to offer a rich, immersive experience and is accessible free-to-play on Windows PC via Steam or through the official game website. Prepare to join forces with your fellow players and conquer the shadows that await in this thrilling new chapter of an enduring MMORPG legacy. Ready your weapons and spells; the Mystic Altar awaits your valor!
