Alpha 18.4.5Mar 30, 2022 - Community Announcements{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/1c0d394741b3815b5bfcbcee97809c5a215181e5.png Greetings from the Elteria Adventures team! As we continue working on improving the game, we’ve got enough new features (as well as bugfixes) to bring you this update. We hope that you like it! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/5f5577090a31f1599f9cc61c490a93c5c0a35dc5.png Panic Volley. A new ability for the fleeing mobs such as Shroomy and Watermello. If panicked, they start shooting projectile attacks in all directions. If such attacks hit the player, they deal a bit of damage + a debuff (such as Slow). If such an attack hits their summoned allies, it grants them a Shield effect; Bow Stab. Now archers will be able to deal with enemies that come too close! Punching with your bow deals a bit of damage, and pushes the enemy away, allowing you to maintain a safe distance. For now, this ability has replaced the arrow shot, as we are implementing new arrow choosing mechanics into the game for the next update, which will be released with the fixed bow shooting mechanics; New attack ability for Little Boarmelons; Added the animation for the Shroomy’s ally summoning ability; Updated the female model’s damage receiving animation; Updated the critical damage debuff animation. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/aede18639042ab7216a8ebfe869f8ed03cba0910.png Fixed the bug that caused items to disappear from chests when you re-enter instances; Fixed the crash related to the double jump; Fixed the animation cutaway issues when viewed from the spectator’s side.

Despite this difficult time, when half of our team is hiding in bombshelters, and another half is doing everything to help, we still decided to fulfill our promise and release this update in time. It contains several months of our work, so we hope you enjoy it. We will continue working on this project for as long as we can. No to war. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/0760ad1abd72b594d3a95d522ad2eb87f8540bed.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/95c8d291f3356fe1f0fae3127b42d7c1fb2a4c33.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/c03d8e0a7e0e08322727061c89a7999b5f318c38.png From now on, you will have your very own, cubic companion! This critter will follow you, helping you dig and providing you with basic fighting capabilities just in case you haven’t crafted a good, trusty stick yet (or, you know, something better). {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/5e6d840c1790f7a3c9d98c2b24a58e1b2eae9a7b.png Its ray is highly efficient at digging singular blocks, and can be upgraded by feeding your cubic companion specific resource blocks - just click its icon to see the blocks it needs, and drag them there from your inventory! Ah, and you might still want to hold onto that Psychokinetic Splitter, just in case you want to mine in a wider area. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/0b7f3a11b0669a721d649fdb1b283e526df412bc.png Your private islands can now be upgraded and expanded! With the new item called Island Core, you can add new islands featuring different biomes to your archipelago, to both add more space for your private architectural projects, and to diversify the scenery. There is a limited amount of these Island Cores available right now, and the changes applied with them are permanent (though that will change in the future)! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/a5e978a517ca4c069712393212b3ca0854a9760a.png The Achievement system has been replaced with an Adventurer’s Journal. It features a number of exploration and adventure suggestions that you can fulfill at your own pace. And not just for bragging rights either, as you can receive Island Cores and keys that unlock next worlds with it! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/f12c0850b13424012e8f937df446eff779a3ab2c.png The mob AI has been reworked, with several types of behavior models: Calm mobs, that do their own thing, unless attacked (in which case, they’ll attack you in turn) Territorial mobs, that will attack you with other similar mobs in group if you disturb them Cowardly mobs that will run and/or hide, and will call their stronger brethren for help if provoked Small resource mobs that will try to scuttle away and disappear if spotted. Catch them, and you’ll receive a food item! We believe that this new AI system will make the game far more engaging and interesting :) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/21d912e06d420019ff412ee174b086c8e5e9b217.png Oh, and the inventory is now upgradeable.

It’s been an important year for Elteria Adventures so far. The game had switched from semi-realistic to cubic environments with more emphasis on Sandbox gameplay in May, and we’ve collected your feedback through the entire June. After that, we started implementing it into the game in a massive overhaul in order to make Elteria Adventures even better than before, the first results of which you are currently able to see on our alpha servers. Of course, this is only the beginning — after implementing a completely new worlds system, we are currently working on the main gameplay features that are going to take place in these worlds, which will likely take us the rest of 2021. This work can be separated into four big parts: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/ca6d9c5a445c5e5e8cab16fe73559760ef5c2a88.png We are currently working on both improving the visuals of Elteria, and making it more immersive. And in order to do that we are: Reworking the way the islands of Elteria are generated and adding details, to make sure they all look diverse, interesting and fun to explore. Improving the visuals of the nature voxels, with both new pretty textures and reworked old ones. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/db207ca1561d258551d633d59071efd8328b511c.png Implementing new and improved behavior for all the in-game mobs to make them more believable. Redesigning caves and dungeons, so that exploring them is even more fun Changing the way music is played, so that it works even better with the gameplay. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/a022c1825870da6fb3bbb9ef22931077fd43b0a8.png The fun of exploring the world of Elteria is in a lot of things — new resources, new items, new enemies, new vistas etc. And we thought that it might be a good idea to give one more incentive to venture towards the unknown, which is why we are working on implementing an Adventurer’s Journal. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/821083efe92899357a672c1dc8aa6dfe8b415cc1.png Rather than handholding the player, this Journal tells you what might be a good idea to look for and investigate, as well as grants you rewards for completing its entries without forcing you to do anything — like a set of general guidelines (with rewards!). This feature will take the place of the current Achievement system. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/694dedf0dd6bce25194b15d5597d23e9a73a2654.png Having a set of private islands is great. Having a set of private islands that develop as you explore the world is even better. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/16d3720095eab2edd40bac5d9b5e17131c508ee2.png Our current goal is to truly make your personal archipelago into your own private base that you’ll be improving by supplying it with resources and materials you find during your trips to more dangerous parts of Elteria. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/348dba98e80309b5cbb732dd3b20470e8e402f84.png The co-op gameplay in Elteria has been pretty chaotic so far...Elteria Livestream!Oct 1, 2021 - Community Announcements{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/1b783f3176c0bdb6808d62e940a4d883b74607f6.jpgElteria Livestream!Oct 1, 2021 - Community Announcements{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/1b783f3176c0bdb6808d62e940a4d883b74607f6.jpgMegapatch 18.0.1Sep 30, 2021 - Community Announcements{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/f82f84a2183d8bf9c6eb7381168c0d31e2d8d8f4.png Greetings from the Elteria Adventures team! The 18.0.1 Megapatch is finally here! So, without further ado, let’s check what it has for you in store! GAMEPLAY AND THE WORLD: New system of Elteria’s outer worlds: rather than one big interconnected map, there are many different worlds differentiated by tiers, each with its own lifespan and autoreset timers. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/24917cda2528ea96f5d81a1cd1571d4694f6b386.jpg New, separate PvP world, for all your PvP needs! You can find it among the Tier 2 worlds! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/30b0fbceed93ff75bc802d42deb533fb44908760.jpg Overhauled penalties for death. Now if you die, you drop a chest containing a random set of items from your inventory (with some exceptions). The chest disappears after 10 minutes, and can be only looted by you in the first 5 minutes, and by any player at all in the remaining 5 minutes. Major reworks of the crafting system, including reworked recipes, drops, new crafting stages, etc, in order to make crafting more natural and engaging! Moreover, all recipes are now divided between four modes of crafting — with your hands, on a Workbench, on a Construction Workbench and in a Cauldron. Added craftable Beds that you can use to skip in-game time in your private world. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/582728c7be5e0249241be96cccc6e1c5daf22e6a.gif Bouncy Gel blocks! Added new craftable Gel blocks that you can use as a bouncy trampoline! Reworked the mob spawner, so the mobs can now spawn depending on the lighting conditions, so you could use light-producing blocks to prevent mobs from spawning in an area. Speaking of which… Updated the mob roster, featuring new drops, new (or updated) abilities and even new AIs for some of them! Mobs have returned to the Elterian underground. You can once again encounter mobs while in the underground caves. Ah, and we improved the way ores and rocks you venture down there for are generated. Bee’s flight ability reworked. The flight duration now depends on your Stamina, and once you run out, you slowly glide down rather than falling like a rock. Gaining altitude can be done at any time with the jump button. Added Carrots! You can now find (and eat) carrots to replenish some of your Health. Though we’re planning to add even more uses for this vegetable! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/0032d13d65f88fe84f29b154c6ef4670893b6a1e.jpg VISUALS AND USER INTERFACE: Reworked the Stamina meter. It is now displayed to the left of your crosshairs, and disappears if your Stamina is full. Decluttered your screen by removing the plaque featuring the name and difficulty of the current Biome and the time of the day. That’s where your lifebar and buff/debuff indicators now are. Quicker access bar. Picking up an item will now automatically put it into the quick access bar. If there is no room there, it’ll be put into your Inventory. Completely reworked the compass, so that you know if your target ...Online sandbox adventure Elteria Adventures gets a huge overhaul and opens up a PlaytestJun 10, 2021 - GamingOnLinuxWant to try what could potential end up as the next big thing?

What private archipelago? The one you’re starting your game at! Sure, it takes some time to build a portal to the Main World, but you can always come back to your own safe haven to work on your personal building and crafting projects uninterrupted! And moreover, your private archipelago does not regenerate any changes you have implemented, also allowing you for limitless terramorphing possibilities! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/30f5a1a883b1d7c41c88557db5713ede1faea308.gif Ah, but you don’t HAVE to be alone here. You can invite your friends over to build and terramorph together! Or you can visit their own private archipelagos, or form a party and go to the Main World to challenge its harsher biomes for blocks and materials, that’s also an option! So, how do you invite someone over? Inviting someone over: Open your Friend List (press V) Type the name of your friend, send the friendship request. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/18a58dda0f1ba896242e486e65a0cce6650a8756.png Once your request is accepted, you can invite them to your private archipelago and allow them to build there (or not) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/c9b680e6f5f808cdead9509b32f2892d8ed340ea.png Accepting the invitation: Open your Friendlist (press V), accept the friendship request.

As we work on the upcoming Open Playtest for the new, improved and cubic world of Elteria Adventures, we thought that it might be a good idea to tell you more about what we’re working on. And today, we’ll talk more in-depth about the changes to the world of Elteria itself. Improved architecture With the entire world becoming more blocky, we were able to drastically improve its looks in terms of performance and variety. The simplified shapes allowed us to finally fix the bugs that allowed the camera to look beneath the world’s surface through the unpredictably placed seams in the textures AND to introduce more distinct and varied shapes of natural architecture. The improved and downscaled cubes also mean that you can mimic natural environments with your own tools, and have even more control over what you can build! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/91e7b65b5ac2283dd31f9d0ef32010bca28268c7.gif {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/2393159430c93701e9ae9df5d7300549513d1ea1.png Slow Main World regeneration Have you ever tried to wipe a small island from the face of Elteria, only to see it slowly begin to regenerate just 10 minutes in? We know we did, and we didn’t like it one bit. Which is why we’ve decided to introduce slower regeneration time to the Main World of Elteria. We’re currently thinking about making that time about two weeks, though we’ll have to see if said time needs any adjustments. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/a4958b0ebe204a8695360dddc4ff454872a10e06.gif Private worlds. Having a private island is awesome, though it might be a space too limited for all your building and heroic endeavors. Which is why we’re upgrading your private islands to entire private, instance-based archipelagos. Unlike the Main World, your private world will not regenerate at all, allowing for permanent terramorphing! Though that also means that the resources available to you in your Private World are limited, and you’ll have to venture to the Main World for more. And of course, you won’t be alone on this private archipelago either! You’ll have the company of monsters, as well as any friends you invite over to help you build, gather resources, or just party! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/9bb7698e67828b580d74ca6039b09f24fc20a699.jpg Large, interconnected world Previously, the biomes of Elteria were too distanced from each other, forcing you to take portals to travel between them. Now, you’ll just need a portal to your private world, and will be able to get anywhere else on foot, clouds or via bridges. Preferably during the day, when you’ll only encounter peaceful mobs. Though if you trust the heart of your gear enough, you can also bravely face the dangers of the Elterian night. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/bc2db9de4a3544718e44e861e295a4499ab25d0f.jpg Of course, these are just some of the many changes, improvements and new features of the upcoming Open Playtest.

The world of Elteria will go cubical even sooner than expected. After seeing the sheer amount of interest in the closed playtest, we have decided that it might be better to go for a key-free open playtest instead. As such, this implies a few things: The next Elteria Adventures update (ETA end of May, we’ll keep you updated) will introduce the New Game World, with a reworked gameplay, cubes, mechanics and many, many other new, exciting updates and upgrades! Since the old characters’ progression is incompatible with this update, everyone will have to start from scratch following a progression reset. If you want to play through the current questlines, make some screenshots with your friends and challenge all those monsters and bosses as they currently are, you still have some time to do that! If you have received any awards or promo codes in Elteria Adventures, you should receive them in the new version, making it even easier to switch to the new Elteria! Lastly, we want to thank both our playtesters and people following our project for the continuous support, though we hope that you’ll enjoy the new and improved Elteria Adventures even more! See you soon, on the now-cubical islands of Elteria!

It’s been quite a while since the last piece of news from our project, hasn’t it? Well, today we’ve got something very exciting to show you as the result of months of research, development and playtesting (HUGE thanks to our alpha testers, by the way!), that we hope, will help us to create a much more focused, fun and creative experience for you to enjoy. Introducing the brand new game world! Cubes! This part can be recognized instantly. The world, previously consisting of rounded cubic voxels, has now become almost entirely cubified. We know, we loved the smooth realistic terrains too! But not only did the playtests show us that these new cubic surroundings looked way more in line with your own beautiful architectural creations, they also made the environments much more easily readable and even prettier to look at. Just look at these screenshots! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/bf73a49ed550afcffe2fd06ccf872a5c099f8989.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/bbf4317cf1e1fea08ab06f8f2416276a28308040.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/672c569101e6cd8de11c1a1d260ea8e28ae08e49.jpg Optimized Building. Smaller cubic voxels also allow us to introduce a number of new possible buildings and add more variation in natural geometries such as caves and mountains. The upgraded building mechanics are also more comfortable to use, making it so much easier to create the home base of your dreams or even an entire fortified sky island that would look completely at place among its surroundings! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/3243af19b6d528eaf0120fd0ecbcd84313c2b4ad.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/f3ffff7a610933fed3717922549be062be2f197d.jpg Accessible Terramorphing. We’ve made it easier to both gather resources, as well as destroy and rebuild your environments. Don’t care for gathering extra rock and dirt? Put aside your Glove and just crush these blocks into nothing with your trusty weapons! All said destruction of your surroundings will linger for far, far longer, making it possible to even use terramorphing for base building! Incorporate your base into a mountain! Make a basement! Erase an island you don’t like and make it STAY that way! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/087e44175dfdaa81d78fb9a9ea1dd9c6d7b4c5b9.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/533ff21e4e699e4f601d78b5a5c89df638b81374.jpg Sandboxy goodness.

In fact, we are currently reworking the quests to be far more open and fun, and far less resembling running through your grocery list. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/4e7626429075f328ecfca8ba2f11ff6942b458b5.jpg Explore and survive in the world of Elteria along with your friends!

You know, Elteria Adventures went through a lot of changes in 2020. Ranging from purely cosmetic to mechanical, up to and including the game’s story, these changes were all made in order to make the game as fun and enjoyable as possible. And of course, the Elteria Adventures team plans to continue this tendency in 2021, in order to bring you even better experiences on the floating islands of Elteria. In fact, we’re already working on something huge in order to bring Elteria Adventures even closer to our vision, and hope to bring you the first look into it very, very soon. We’re extremely thankful to all of you for helping us turn our dreams into reality, and hope that you will continue to support us in the following year and onwards!

With the Holidays practically on our doorstep, we thought it’d be great to release one more Patch before the end of the year. This time, it contains some very important fixes, as well as a bunch of great tweaks and additions to make your game as amazing as possible: FEATURES: The Character Creation screen now allows you to pick your own hair color. Just click on the Hair Color, and pick your favorite! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/4a802c5ae2df02b5fe637f885806ee664eb955b4.gif Updated Trading with mobs.

Updated some of the ability descriptions. They’ll even update automatically as you level up! Added new sounds for Hammer abilities. Sounds good to me! Your weapon strikes are now targeted with your camera (you can even strike upwards!) Updated some Scythe and Guitar animations for the female character model {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/667cf77958f28c204a80b815f0cb144a48c72a04.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/578807627c8a76b0914e19eda24262b8aa2860b3.jpg Optimized the way damaging some in-game objects is handled. FIXES: Added some missing translations in the English version. Fixed the Stone Hands ability using your regular weapon’s attack animation. The quest that requires you to reach the Faldaren mountains is now completed regardless of how you’ve got there. Fixed how some souls transformed you into a Pumpkee for no reason. If you kill the boss in the Abomination world, you can still respawn at your previous location (instead of way back home). {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/50ba2b0df5cfb35e141ea840278040b7ee24882c.jpg Fixed the way placing grass while in building mode left holes in the terrain. You can no longer activate objects like Workbenches through walls. Fixed the lighting effects glitches in some situations. This includes how sometimes NPCs weren’t lit despite standing next to a light source. Fixed some numbers in GUI displaying with unnecessary dots. Fixed the way some quest-related entities weren’t highlighted. Highlights also refresh if the player relogins. Fixed some artifacts in the small birch tree models. The button in the Soul Altar says “Destroy” instead of “Create” OTHERS: Optimized the way the world info is transferred through the Web We hope these updates will make Elteria Adventures even more fun for you! You can discuss this update, as well as give your feedback directly to our development team on our Discord server! And see you soon!

Patch 17.0Dec 3, 2020 - Community Announcements{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/b5f9efc3bf9b2021da7ff8b247db6dbcb0d98da7.jpg Greetings, aspiring adventures!

The Tutorial chapter has gotten a bit better too! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/05eaaf70518d0d4ebe5f789450a6f3b03270d435.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/73ab794ce76d53c4af5b9935bc47e2806cc8f719.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/dbc82934aa55dbbc983a3f1e141491494ab4c043.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/daec0b0a0dca19888c306c3360e16141cf31f9a8.jpg Added new gloves. Added several new kinds of gloves to expand your arsenal with. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/de3343cc1e3482d04e7ead83478a7f7f2d02a157.png Added pedestals. Pedestals are a new type of objects you can place in your Private Zone to showcase and/or store your best/coolest/rarest pieces of gear. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/90fa781b9cc6332da6d0e159f8ea1c8df4ff1024.gif Items rehashed. Yet another massive rehash of item stats, drop, recipes and trading costs. Abilities updated. Updated and/or changed a lot of abilities. Consumables rebalanced. Unfamiliar and strange? Maybe. Better balanced? We hope so. Double Jump refreshes after clouds and mushrooms. Your consumed midair jumps are now replenished after bouncing off a mushroom or a cloud. Character’s Main Menu preview updated. Easier to check your gear, easier to pick your hairstyle and tattoos. Friendly mobs are easier to recognize. While at full health, the friendly mobs’ HP bar is now hidden. Improved transparency visuals in GUI. It should look nicer now. BUGFIXES: Fixed the bug that caused some players to get stuck underground when teleporting home. Fixed the aiming issues (Demolishers rejoice!). Fixed the issue that sometimes caused the old version of the world to appear on screen. Several other minor bugfixes. We hope these updates will make Elteria Adventures even more fun for you! You can discuss this update, as well as give your feedback directly to our development team on our Discord server! And see you soon!Patch 16.8Nov 13, 2020 - Community Announcements{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/96445216011f2516d42aeb6249f359db96205860.png Greetings, fellow travelers!

Who says you have to pay for indoor greenery? Gather grass, flowers, mushrooms and other plants, and then plant them in your Private Zone via Building mode! And speaking of Gathering… {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/c966babe207618db95c2ba5c1eb00de0cd3446c7.jpg New and improved Gathering. Reworked Gathering and Digging. The Gathering marker now highlights EVERY gatherable object in its radius (instead of just the one you’re looking at), as well as tells you what resources (and how many of them) there are in the area. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/821033fb45206af4e5352f1a321ef8b965178e6a.gif Exactly as dumb as a rock. Monsters called Stupid Stones have been recently discovered in Elteria. These things are not aggressive, but good luck figuring out how to destroy one! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/e5b4feec816b5d569e07550692963f7425cdd176.jpg UPDATES: Elteria adapts. Mass update of mob stats and drop tables. Upholding naming conventions. Updated the names and descriptions of every item in the game to make sure there’s no outdated info. Leaving no stone unturned. Updated the way most stones are gathered: you’ll only have to Dig for two types of Stones, with the rest being in deposits. . Gems are outrageously easy to get. Gathering Gems will always give you both whole gems and the shards. Destroying the Gem plants will only leave you with a pittance of shards. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/737d8b3f1ace6295caca6701b143b3795edfaff4.gif Music to my ears. Updated the sounds of playing on a guitar {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/66ab91ada408850d1cf6968fd61368b2c9c84fdd.gif Take it from the top. The Character Screen now shows your actual Cooldown Reduction (it can’t get over 40%) Recipe books organized. The Workbench screen is a bit better optimized to hold a lot of recipes. Prettier icons. Updated some of the ability/item icons. BUGFIXES: The item passives don’t work if an equipment slot isn’t currently used (like when you switch from one weapon to another, or during Polymorph) Fixed a lot of small bugs in abilities and buffs Fixed the way some %-based Healing abilities work (also, Ancient Signet of Blessing isn’t as overpowered as it was before) Fixed the way some abilities affected the co...Elteria Adventures: Item Enchanting GuideOct 28, 2020 - Community Announcements{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/b41a741edcc0cc0f2a6f29053357473fbc2fb5cd.png While maxing out your gear in Elteria Adventures is not necessary, it might give you a much needed edge in a fight, or push your damage just enough to one-shot a mob you’re currently farming. There are currently four mechanics that allow you to do just that. 1. ITEM RARITY (Workbench/Advanced Workbench). Whenever you craft a piece of equipment, you have a small chance of crafting one of an increased Item Rarity. Signified by a corresponding adjective and a colored border around its icon, such an item boasts higher stats than a regular version. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/eafd17486bf7b207b78777370a051782058c18f7.png Of course, the process of deliberately crafting a rare item might leave you with a lot of spares. These might be Dismantled on a Soul Altar to gain some extra Essentia, though you might also want to keep some spares due to the next step. 2. AWAKENED, TRUE AND ASCENDED (Workbench/Advanced Workbench). Crafting a piece of equipment is just the beginning. Once you have crafted a weapon, an armor or an accessory, you can also use it to craft an upgraded version with significantly boosted stats, with Awakened and True versions available to most gear, and exceptionally powerful Ascended versions for some cases. Crafting any of these upgraded versions will require you some extra legwork though, with increasingly more valuable and difficult to obtain resources from later chapters or Wild Area. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/5a653372c049e389babc8b148c2caa3fdd67b2e2.png Do note that using a piece of gear in crafting basıcally scraps ıt to gıve you a new one (rolling for Item Rarity again), which is why you might need those extra crafted pieces of regular Item Rarity. 3. REFORGING (Anvil). Once you have finally got that incredibly lucky Wild True Carrot Sword, it’s due time to fine-tune it to suit your personal playstyle. For the first part you can use an Anvil to Reforge it, giving you a set of random bonuses {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/f64f61a325d5d966c259001f5bebc338e3197969.png This process can be repeated for as long as you have the necessary materials. 4. SOUL FUSION (Soul Fusion Altar). Farming for Souls doesn’t just allow you to use their signature abilities, you can also use these Souls to fortify your gear even further. The Soul Fusion Altar allows you to put up to three different souls into an item, boosting a specific stat for each. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/3bdd8bf9ae214f3ae738c6b65b22d0cd4cbe54b9.png Of course, the Souls of stronger mobs give you even higher bonuses All of these effects are stackable and applicable to all item slots (Weapon, Armor, Necklace, two Rings, two Earrings, Hat, Boots), so there is a lot of room to make your adventuring easier even if you decide not to bother with some of them. And regardless of whenever you’re maxing out your gear all the way, use some of these mechanics or decide to use unmodified gear, be sure to join our Discord serv...Elteria Adventures: the playtest goes on!Oct 23, 2020 - Community Announcements{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/10f786eefc5d27ecf13eb83961f8327e9225cb25.png Open Access is over, but you can still get the full access to Elteria Adventures in three simple steps: Push the green “Request Access” button on our Steam page.

Today, we’re looking at some tweaks, changes and improvements to crafting and adjacent mechanics to make your arsenal-amassing adventures even smoother: UPGRADES: Who even reads instruction manuals? Removed the crafting recipes from all crafting requirements AND from the drops. Now you just need the resources to craft any single item in the game. The existing items were also rebalanced a bit. Underground rock? I Dig it! The Underground Stones now have a chance to drop while you’re tunneling through biomes with your Dig ability (just be sure to upgrade your Universal Tool). {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/6d3cad679ea79583a8162313de1d43bd98aa717b.gif I can craft it, and I can UNcraft it. Added the missing items into Soul Altar dismantling tables. Reforging reforged. Also added the missing items into the Reforging tables, so you can upgrade all of your gear. Hey, who turned out the lights? Removed the ability to turn out the glowing gem blocks outside of your Private Zone. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/ac7d7187a886ae04207c599c9ea3acdf6fef1441.jpg Esoteric furnishing. Soul Altars are now craftable. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33209929/8f408e962e8f82f2751441fa5e30c1b84720bab5.jpg BUGFIXES: Fixed the way slants and ledges rotate in Building mode. Added highlights for ore deposits in the tutorial Fixed the way the Tectonic Fault ability breaks voxels, as well as the object regeneration afterwards. Fixed the bug that caused some equipment to always be crafted as Regular quality. Fixed the way abilities behave during re-login while several different types of weapons are equipped. Fixed the issue with the character being displayed w/o equipment before the equipment has loaded (including during login) OTHERS: Updated the Character Creation/Customization interface. Updated the bug reports to include info about outdated video cards. We hope these updates will make Elteria Adventures even more fun for you!
