WARNING

The original Sundered Isle's content, which utilized Unity 4, has been moved to a Legacy Branch allowing players to access their old save data and continue playing the old content as they wish. Transferring save data between the Main game branch and the Legacy game branch is not supported.

Big Changes:

New Enemies: Trogres, Grinfels, Ghuuls, and Infernal Eks now roam the Savage world.

New Features & Patches Notes:

Trogres wield enormous weapons and will smash anything that crosses their path. An unaware Savage that is not prepared for this fight will be no match for these mighty foes! Grinfels must consume silver to live. If you find one and kill it, make sure to loot it for this very precious metal. Ghuuls scurry and crawl from the shadows of the old towns to rip you limb from limb. Infernal Eks burn fiery rage when compared to their less dangerous greener siblings. New items added! Here is a list of all of the new items that have been added or adjusted:

• A ‘Player Specific Item’ system is now available. This means certain items like ‘Gary’s Tattered Bag’ will be available for every player to pick up on that a server.
• Torches and Dim Torches no longer provide the player with warmth.
• Weapons now have piercing levels according to their type.
• Silver and Gold items are now available.
• Heavy Armor now has higher durability than Light Armor.
• Heavy Armor now requires a Crafting Table to repair.
• Light Armor can be repaired anywhere but requires the use of a Patching Kit. Patching kits are made from Needles and Sinew.
• Needles can now be crafted from Human or Animal Bones.
• Chests no longer have the Loot All function.
• Flawless items have been removed. They will no longer drop or be craftable. If you currently own one, they are still repairable.
