We are very happy to announce that  Blacktalon’s 7th season will be online in 

January 5th, 2024 - 6 PM UTC.

Some info about donation on seasonal server:

- The points drop system will stay the same as in the previous season. Each drop being the 10% of the total value donated (with a minimum and maximum) such as the following table:

Wasteland

After exploring the icy contents of icescar, it's time to explore a mysterious new continent!

Prey

You can now pump your hunting numbers up by using our Prey system, similarly to RL Tibia. The Prey system are bonuses related to the monster's stats. 

You can roll for a randomly selected group of monsters and select one of them as your prey. 

It will then roll for a specific bonus applicable to that monster alone, for example: Increased experience; Increased loot; Increased damage dealt and other bonuses. 

If you didn't like the monster choices you got, you can reroll them with prey cards. Same applies to the bonus type and several other prey related functions.

And it is also possible to choose another creature while keeping the current bonus active

Prey cards can be obtained through the daily reward, store and blue diamond shop

Presets

We now have presets for other highly requested features other than the skill tree: Spell Improvement and Soul Imbuing. The way they work is quite similar to the skill tree one, you must purchase a preset slot in order to use it and then save the desired configuration. Upon clicking the preset you will automatically change into it in a matter of seconds.

You may find that you'd need to change every single preset for a specific occasion and going through each one can be cumbersome, but we also added a preset loadout to quickly change ALL of the other presets in a single click.

Due to numerous complaints regarding preset price, we decided to lower it from 3 to 1 blue diamond per slot

Marketplace

A very anticipated feature is now officially developed and coming to season 7: buy offers on marketplace! 

All you have to do is to select the desired item, soul scroll or relic to purchase and also determine which attributes or tier that the item should have select the amount and currency you're paying and done! You created a buy offer.

Daily Reward

A reward system that many players had been asking for we decided to add it this season.

Completely free, just log in and collect it!

The rewards always follow a order, resetting every time you complete 7 days

Note: remember that the items are for your own use!

Relic Fusion Quality of Life

For this new season we added a few quality of life changes. You can now select relics from your backpack in a window that will only contain relics. After selecting the desired relic, the subsequent relic slots will have the option to quicky select the same relic that you put in the first slot. 

Reagents do not have that function, since using the same reagent will hinder your chance of success, but we did add a little inventory for reagents only that will pop up upon clicking the arrow inside the reagent slots. This inventory will scan from your backpack and will only contain reagents.

Revamp of some hunting areas

We are very happy to announce Blacktalon’s 6th season!

(01/09/2023) 6 PM UTC.

Some info about donation on seasonal server:

- The points drop system will stay the same as in the previous season. Each drop being the 10% of the total value donated (with a minimum and maximum) such as the following table:

Chaos Unleashed

Chaos is affecting the whole world of Blacktalon, birthing chaos corrupted creatures and raid bosses. Be aware that they are stronger versions of the normal mobs (can stack with elites) and can carry challenging modifiers. Corrupted monsters will reward you with increased experience and loot.

Modifiers

Creatures (monsters and players) can carry chaos modifiers which have various effects, some examples of them are:

The modifiers have different values for players, you can check them using your compass

Chaos Compass

Every day, two respawns of every continent (some continents are divided by 2 parts) will be corrupted by the chaos. Making so every time a monster respawn it will have a chance to become corrupted. Every time you kill a corrupted monster from that, you will receive 1 chaos essence. Depending on the continent, you will have a limit of how much you can collect.
For example: In mainland lower you can only collect up to 200 essences daily, but in mainland high you can collect up to 400. Reaching the limit in a lower level area does not block you to obtain essences from a higher area

You can check your current limit and the monsters corrupted with your Chaos Compass

Dungeons

Corrupted dungeons will spawn chaos monsters of the level you selected on your compass. It will give increased experience and by killing the boss you will gain some chaos essence.
There is a daily limit of 6 dungeons that rewards chaos essence. You can still do more than 6 corrupted dungeons daily for increased challenge and experience

Hunting Grounds

As dungeons, it will also spawn chaos monsters of the level you selected on your compass, increasing their experience but also orb chance (and boss drop). You gain Chaos Essence by defeating the boss.

The daily limit for reward is 3 hunting grounds

Tower Arena

Same as other systems, it will spawn chaos monsters of the selected level in your compass, but it will not increase experience and monsters loot, since they don’t give it. Instead it will increase floor loot drop. You gain Chaos Essence after exiting the tower depending on the amount of floors you have completed.

The daily limit for reward is 2 towers (it will count only up to 2 tickets)

Soul Scrolls

You can spend a good amount of chaos essence to corrupt a soul scroll of your preference. It will make them give double the amount of bonus and a random modifier for your character. You can only equip up to 3 corrupted soul scrolls at once

Consume/Extract

Continent Boss

Continent Bosses are a long dated system in BlackTalon, but due to some issues with it, we decided to do a little rework to make them more accessible to most players. Before, Continent Bosses were only summonable by sacrificing crystal fragments that corresponded to that continent’s boss. Now, all Continent Bosses will automatically spawn in fixed spawn times instead, without the need for players to actively summon it. The previous crystal fragments that were used to summon these, will now grant a personal bonus loot for that boss, keeping in mind that the crystal type will still need to be matched for its corresponding boss. 

Special Furniture

Our furniture system was very lackluster and was in clear need for a rework. Before, each furniture had a few options to choose from, some of them were useless, and needed to be recharged with a toolbox every now and then. Now, furniture is divided into two types: Normal and Premium. 

How they work now:

• They will give only one bonus (the owner will choose which one)

• The owner can use it anytime they want (respecting the cooldowns)

• Others players can use, but the furniture will consume charge by that, which can be recharged with toolboxes

• Existing toolboxes will no longer work anymore and a new one will be added to BD shop and rare boss drop, exclusively

Normal furniture will have a fixed cooldown of 22 hours regardless of the buff type, and extra copies of the same furniture will not be usable in case you used one before.

Premium furniture has a varied cooldown per buff type and is not limited by the extra copy rule, meaning that you can gather more than one of the same furniture if you wish and still obtain the buff it provides. The buff list was greatly increased and toolboxes are no longer necessary.

Equipment Bag

Equipment bags are now no longer stackable and now have rarities attached to them, which will be dependant on which rarity elite creature it was obtained from. Starting from strange rarity, it will only show 1 item available to grab, up to 5 items at mythic rarity. You can also upgrade the bag's rarity, but it will have an additional Blue Diamond cost to its normal fee.

Currency Storage

We now have a bank interface to deposit common currencies. It can be accessed from anywhere from the Others menu and supports a variety of currencies to be stored, such as gold, blacktalon coins, rarity tokens

and event tokens. 

Supply Stash

Our supply stash also got some love in this update. It is now more responsive and quick, with filters to ease navigation in it. You can now also blacklist a few items from being stowed, if you wish to do so. And lastly, the amount of stacks for each item has been increased. Also, the scroll effect is now permanent, therefore it was removed from the blacktalon coin shop and added to the blue diamond shop

Death Recap
