New Skill Tree
After years of relying on a vocation-based structure, we realized it significantly limited player freedom to create diverse builds for their classes. This approach left some classes underpowered while others became overly dominant. To address this, we’ve introduced a global skill tree with a vastly expanded set of nodes, offering greater flexibility and balance for all classes.

For each different creature that attacks you, gain a stackable buff that increases your block percent by +2% per stack. The effect starts at 5% and can stack up to 6 times.

Special Nodes
Due to the heavy reliance on RNG to obtain the game's best relic (Death Call Skull), we’ve decided to remove the "on killing creature" effect from relics and integrate it as a node in the global skill tree. Additionally, we’ve introduced other modifiers to enhance build diversity.
These special nodes do not consume regular skill tree points. However, they can only be unlocked after completing the Level 700 Promotion Quest. Each special node can be upgraded to a maximum of Level 5, and only one special node can be active at a time.
In total, there are four special nodes:
Eye of Annihilation
Killing a creature has a 20.0% chance to trigger an explosion of death damage, affecting nearby enemies. Deals damage based on 20% of target’s health.
Eye of The Storm
Killing a creature has a 40.0% chance to release a chain of energy damage that jumps between distant enemies. Deals damage based on 10% of target’s health.
Eye of The Fangs
Every damage dealt to an enemy applies a stack of Fang Imprint to them.
For every stack you deal 0.20% extra death damage (Max stack: 100).
(0.2/0.3/0.4/0.5/0.6)
Eye of The Howl
Every time you cast an offensive spell you have a 1% chance to unleash a terrifying howl, summoning a werewolf and giving you a random buff for 10 seconds.
Buffs:
Weapon damage, critical hit chance, critical hit amount, spell damage, healing, dodge.
Gathering Perks
Say goodbye to the tedious grind of resource gathering! The Gathering Perks system is here to make collecting resources (ore, trees, and plants) faster, more engaging, and rewarding. Unlocked through a new quest in Dark Island, this system grants access to a unique item that lets you choose from three powerful perks, each designed to enhance your gathering experience in distinct ways. Level up your perks, switch between them, and optimize your resource collection like never before!
Perk Overview
The Gathering Perks system offers three unique perks, each with its own playstyle and benefits. You can switch between perks with a short cooldown, allowing for strategic flexibility. Here's what each perk brings to the table:
Streak
Gain a stacking buff every time you collect a resource (ore, tree, or plant). Each stack increases the number of resources gathered for 15 seconds, up to a maximum of 10 stacks. Chain your gathers to maximize efficiency and watch your resource haul grow exponentially!
Companion
Summon a loyal pet that automatically collects nearby resources (ore, trees, or plants) for you, no tools required! For even greater rewards, the companion will use your best available tool to boost its gathering efficiency. Let your pet do the heavy lifting while you explore!
Tooling Mastery
Master the art of gathering with this game-changing perk. Collect resources from a distance with a single click, eliminating gathering time and allowing seamless, uninterrupted movement. Higher perk tiers further increase the resources you collect per node, making you a gathering powerhouse.
Perk Progression
Each perk can be upgraded to Level 3 by earning experience through gathering resources. To unlock higher levels, you'll need to pay a small cost, rewarding dedicated gatherers with even greater efficiency. Plan your upgrades carefully to match your playstyle!
How to Unlock
To access the Gathering Perks system, complete a special quest on Dark Island to obtain a unique item that unlocks this feature. Once acquired, you can activate and switch between perks at any time, with only a short cooldown between switches to keep your strategy dynamic.
