Legends of Aria Classic

 
Legends of Aria Classic is Shutting DownApr 3, 2025 - Community AnnouncementsDear Legends of Aria Classic Community, We regretfully announce that Legends of Aria Classic is permanently offline as our servers have been shut down. The Steam page for the game will be retired shortly, and we are required to make this official announcement as part of that process. Thank you to everyone who joined us on this journey and supported our indie game during its lifetime. Sincerely, The Legends of Aria Classic TeamPoint Release 1 IntroductionMay 19, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsWe're excited to introduce to you Point Release 1! Coming to Legends of Aria in June 2024. A New Endgame Point Release 1 will be a benchmark for our new content development strategy and one which will make end game inclusive for both PvE and PvP character. We're moving away from an undue focus on ‘lower than GM’ content and will be decentralising the skilling up experience. We will be offering players a variety of ways to level their characters, not accelerating but de-mystifying the experience with an aim of driving players into GM level content where we will be focusing the entirety of our attention. Sandbox Progression In the past we have been hyper restrictive on how we train our characters, invariably drawing our attention to the early game which historically has been a gruelling and punishing aspect in skill based sandbox games. We still believe that training characters should be time and resource intensive, but that core combat skills are an enormous barrier to entry for new players in a PvP orientated world. In PR1 we are taking the gloves off when it comes to how we level our characters and will be offering improvements to this experience for existing and new players alike. Not seeking to accelerate the levelling experience, these additions are intended to make the path to GM more accessible and deliver more new players successfully to the end game: Skill Scrolls: Skill scrolls will offer players a more flexible and less punishing route to skill gain. Skill scrolls will drop primarily for core combat skills to help ensure that time spent adventuring is rewarded with skill gain. Whilst not intended to replace natural skill gains, the goal for skill scrolls is to provide an alternate economy for people to trade/barter for valuable points. Training Addons: As part of our dungeon upgrade, we will be dropping the means to craft Training Addons. These placeable housing addons will be created by crafters using rare and costly materials. These will give guilds and home owners the option to autonomously train combat focused characters at a reduced rate with these luxury highly sought after items. QoL to left behind skills: We’re frustrated and consciously aware that skills like Fabrication, Lockpicking and Animal Taming lack sufficient material means for players to access regular skill gains. These skills are being reviewed and will receive the attention they need. New Approach to Dungeons: Ruin, Deception, and Contempt This is no normal refresh but a comprehensive change to how we do dungeon content. Every monster and room is being meticulously replaced and will become a place of value. Here’s what you can expect: Tailored to Small Groups: Entering our dungeons will now teleport users to random starting locations, capping the maximum number of party members per arrival. Paired with the gates and barriers present, dungeons will offer players greater protection and balance in dealing with unwanted guests. New Monster List: Each room will feature m...Introducing My Legends of AriaMay 11, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsWe are excited to unveil https://my.legendsofaria.com With our initial release, we are bringing back an improved Legends of Aria Classic kill board!

We are excited to announce Legends of Aria Classic - a return to our pre-Steam Early Access ruleset of 2019. Early 2019 was a magical time for Legends of Aria. Players had created some truly amazing player towns and houses, finely crafted with furniture and decorated with the spoils of adventure. We had a balanced flow of red vs. blue (and orange), which played out across our world. We watched large dungeon raids and faction battles explode into meteoric chaos. These are the experiences we wish to return to and faithfully build upon with Legends of Aria Classic. We are reintroducing the fun and scalable systems such as Karma and Factions and will be tweaking and expanding them as we resume development. Legends of Aria Classic will be launching on Steam on May 9th and will be freely available for 30 days, then requiring a monthly subscription. This will ensure ongoing support and development as we return to build upon this beloved foundation. If you lead a guild in Legends of Aria, please reach out to Supreem on Discord for a meeting. Guilds are the lifeblood of Aria, and we need your feedback! We can't wait to see you back in Celador! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44980832/eb0c9f11a221ec7341fc7545bae8052de5a23d3f.jpg
