Rebuilding and Epochs

Hey there, heroes!

Falconreach is finally rebuilt!

Take a stroll (especially at night!) and enjoy your sturdier, more secure home away from home! All thanks to the hard working citizens of Falconreach! (and thanks to the Rose and their supplies)

The necromancers have also finished up the cemetery!
Yay...!

I didn't get a chance to FINISH up the cemetery, so no epitaphs yet.

If you find out any bugs in the new, rebuilt Falconreach, please let us know! There was a LOT of things to link up (FR is the BIGGEST town in the game), so some things might have gotten... mixed up!


We're also proud to announce DragonLord testing of the Epoch class!

This is a very unique class with a an intense brawling yet strategical playstyle.

Gain and use Epoch's special resource, Momentum, in order to increase the power of your skills for insane combos.

  • Maximum momentum increases from 9 to 12.
  • And, although this is not implemented yet, Eternal Epoch will have access to another, additional, Boost and Hex.

The Epoch class will be available from all HeroMart calendars from 2018 onward- the Eternal Locket Artifact, however, will only be available from the 2018 HeroMart Calendar. Future HeroMart Calendars will come with new Artifacts for the Epoch class, changing art and mechanics in different ways.

UPDATE:

  • Empowered Defense has been reduced to 100 Avoidance down from 150.
