Damage Numbers

Damage numbers have been added to the game displaying your dealt damage with all your AoE skills, weapon hits and projectiles. If you receive damage a big red damage number will also be displayed to improve the visibility of received damage. Damage numbers can be deactivated in the options menu anytime.

Winter is here!

Temperatures have dropped, and the snowfall has also reached Ankerath. To keep you warm in this cold season two new winter themed weapons have been added to the game. These weapons can of course also be found as legendary versions. Furthermore, some small visual surprises are waiting for you.
