Featuring new combat challenges, exciting rewards for every player, and a smashing mace, the trial update is here to test your mettle. Explore the sprawling structure of trial chambers, harness auto-crafting, triumph over waves of hostile mobs and more.
Trial chambers are procedurally generated structures containing a variety of challenges, including battles and traps. Each chamber features a unique set of blocks and spawns different mobs depending on the player’s party size, with the number of enemies scaling up and down. These mobs include the breeze, a new melee mob with wind attacks, and the bogged, a swamp-like variation of the skeleton that shoots poison arrows.
Once players defeat all of the mobs spawned by a trial spawner, it will eject loot, which includes a chance to drop a Trial Key. These keys are necessary to unlock vaults within the trial chamber, which contain powerful equipment and high-level enchantment books.
Aside from Trial Vaults, the update also adds a new challenge called Ominous Trials. This advanced challenge requires players to activate a trial spawner while under the effects of Bad Omen. This effect is obtained by defeating raid captains or by drinking an Ominous Bottle, which can be found in raid chests, ominous vaults and in the new Ominous Trial Chambers.
Along with the trials, the update introduces many new decorative blocks, items, weapons and paintings. It also adds new music, including nine ambient tracks by Lena Raine, Kumi Tanioka and Aaron Cherof.
