Dauntless - Realm of Ice Update Available

Phoenix Labs’ free to play co-operative action-RPG Dauntless has received a new content update containing a fresh Escalation challenge with its own keystone Behemoth, the Realm of Ice Hunt Pass, the seasonal Saint’s Bond event, as well as the usual bug fixes and balance adjustments.

Here’s the official trailer:

And an overview of the new stuff:

FROST ESCALATION

The permafrost has begun to melt, revealing fragments of an ancient past … and awakening something deep within the ice. Battle through Skaldeskar’s frostbitten lands with the aid of its warrior queen, Linnea Silver, and seek out the Urska in a new Escalation. But beware … all travel through Skaldeskar comes with the risk of frostbite: a disabling condition that can freeze a Slayer in their tracks.

URSKA

Frost Escalation’s keystone Behemoth is the Urska — a nightmare pried from the pages of Skaldish legend. Collect Urska parts in Frost Escalation to forge new legendary weapons and armour. These powerful frost pieces come with a new legendary ability (for weapons) and a new perk (for armour). You can also unlock a full cosmetic variant set through the Frost Escalation talent tree.

REALM OF ICE HUNT PASS

February 4 also launches a new Hunt Pass: Realm of Ice. Upgrade to Elite to unlock access to two sets of otherworldly armour: the Frost Shaper (level 1) and the Paladin of Vylmark (level 50). Inspired by the iridescent lights of the polar aurora, these pieces will shine in any collection.

NEW RUMOURS

Talk to Honest Ozz and discover two brand new rumours. Don the heat of the sun itself by unlocking the Searing Dawn helmet skin from “A Vision of Fire.” If the darkness of night is more your style, complete the “Shadow Boxing” rumour for the Thorns of Dusk strikers skin.

SAINT'S BOND

Ramsgate’s most romantic holiday returns this Thursday with seven weapon rumours and more rewards in Ozz’s shop. Exchange gifts with friends to collect special titles, then group up to gather Hearts of Rage — a limited-time drop from raging Behemoths. Saint’s Bond begins February 11 and ends February 18 at 10 AM PST.

JOURNAL

All Shadowtouched and Deepfrost variant Behemoths now have journal entries that unlock upon first encounter. Players who have already encountered these Behemoths will need to fight them again to unlock their entries.
