    • All spirits count for one kill.

New Zones Debuting
  • Filtration Chamber Six
    • The success of innovation...the erosion of time; the achievements of modern gnomish engineering. Underhill. Not many of the great cities of our time can boast as such. Still, many secrets of the "Old" Underhill remain long forgotten, buried in the remains of the past. Will the architecture of these first gnomes be discovered again? What dark secrets lie in wait for the ardent adventurer?
    • Filtration Chamber Six is the perfect starting zone for young gnomish adventurers seeking experience, exploration, quests, and most of all...gear! Intended for levels 5-30.

  • Morgue of Erudin
    • The City of Erudin. Home of the Erudites, scholars from far and wide, and bastion of knowledge. The people of Erudin treat their dead with respect, going as far as sealing away the morgue that houses them after burial. However, a recent outbreak of monsters within the morgue has led to Captain Utvoz calling for the aid of any brave and seasoned adventurers willing to lend a hand. Welcome to The Morgue of Erudin!
    • The Morgue of Erudin is an experience-focused dungeon for players to explore, designed for levels 35-50, with a level 50 (max. engage) Adept.

  • The River of Recess
    • The River of Recess, formerly not known to many, lies beyond the Darkwoods river and empties into the Rivervale waterfall. Some odd humanoid creatures have fled their homeland, settling down here in little encampments, hunting and fishing to survive. The Council of Innovation has also taken a liking to this place, founding a small settlement on the northern shore. Much awaits exploration.
    • The River of Recess is a custom built outdoor zone intended for players level 60+, with several quests and some boss encounters.

Planar Weapon Models
  • No matter when you raided throughout Shards of Dalaya's history, there are weapons that are iconic to you. Season Event players who progress to raiding can unlock planar weapon models by slaying the most powerful foe in each raid zone. These models are purchased from the Season Event vendor.

  • Chat is shared!
  • Season Event characters will merge into standard play at the end of the season.

**Weapon Model Tokens are not lore.
 
looking forward to seeing the drama from whatever group levels to 65 first as they brawl over the fame reward.

season looks cool though, I intend to play for the rewards
 
Can you claim both the first to 65 and first hardcore to 65 fame reward with one character?
 

So i slapped a discord together just to gauge interest and what not. Few things to note idk if I'm even going to play (at least raid or w/e) or what I'm going to do. If someone else that isn't a terrible person leads a guild or what not that'd probably be way more enticing to play.
 
Question, can I tag alts of my existing members who create seasonal characters in my existing guild? Obviously not to group with existing, trade, etc., since that is hard coded, but simply the tag for ease of swapping for raids, etc.?

Some are telling me this worked last season. (Id imagine Dalaya Beginners shares seasonal and standard also)
 
Sounds like a lot of work went into this season , Good job. Will the shield model not have my arm sticking through it like the last seasons model ? Last time I used token model on my thurgadin weapon it ate all my my non quest augs in it can that be fixed as well ? ( because thurg weapon models are just yuck )

The shield model works well with old player models. Ill have to look into the augment thing.

To answer this. All these rewards will be given once the season ends. If there are no other characters of your class at 65, then probably. If there is, then we would want to share the wealth.
 
Very cool, love these events, great way to play with the community again. Maybe ill try hardcore for fun. also hardcore deaths should leave a permanent ghost behind of that character to see where others have died. running past tupac 64 in mop would be funny. make it visible with see undead maybe.
