    Hello Arkadians

    Firstly thank you for all the support and suggestions given on our official discord server. Many of you came forward to share your experiences and troubles with some of the issues you were experiencing in your day to day activities on Planet Arkadia.

    As mentioned in the dev talks, we have been focused on many fixes and updates to quests and loots across Planet Arkadia. We have a massive road plan to bring the spirit of Arkadia back but to do that we need to revisit many of the previous events and story line quests.

    Everything is going to change for the best to accommodate all future content and with this update we have implemented all the foundational changes for new events, storyline and preparation of rebalanced loots.

    Most of this update will include the following


    Rebalanced Loots

    • All ruin based instances such as Aakas
    • Arkadia underground mobs
    • Arkadia moon mobs
    • Planet Arkadia mobs
    • IFN warehouses

    Dynamic Events

    • Oratan attacks on IFN bases
    • Smuggler attacks on P-TECH HQ on Arkadia moon
    • Smuggler / Oratan spawns on Planet Arkadia and Arkadia Underground
    • New templates have been implemented for future seasonal events in and around Celeste Harbour. (Phase 1/7)
    • New dynamic "migration" themed events have been implemented (phase 1/4)
    • New Player run event preparations have been implemented for a future release.

    Mission Changes

    • IFN missions have been prepared to be discontinued. We will announce the dates in a future post. Estimated end of June 2022.
    • Smuggler missions will be altered with further story telling and reward changes.
    • Gold Rush events will have new systems in place for rewards hand over. (Phase 1/3)
    • Community events areas have been prepared for future releases and reward payouts.
    • Dynamic event missions have been implemented for future "migration" themed events on Arkadia moon and Arkadia Underground.
    • Foundation templates have been implemented for future factions and company support choices.
    • Skill rewards will be removed from all future missions and replaced with Unlimited items used in mission choices and reward exchanges.
    • A.N.U.B.I.S upgrade terminal is being prepared for weapon and armour upgrades.
    • New player missions have been prepared for a complete overhaul.
    • New mission foundation have been implements for sweat circle activities.
    More will be revealed in a future update.

    There has been question about the Golden Door instance. We will let you know that gaining parts to create the golden key will be easier to obtain now to run the golden door. We will be overhauling the loots in the instance and give further details on drops that are available.

    This is the first of many fixes but we will communicate more about what is happening on Planet Arkadia in a future Dev Talk.

    Hope you are all doing well and please remember to join our Official Discord server.

    Thought that with the iron missions (IFN) ending due to CODEX we were going to be getting more than 1-30 days notice of their ending. Let's us know what you think of those of us who are still grinding away.
