New Boss: Ortakna
Introducing Ortakna - bringer of tears. This fight is a new optional fight located in the western section of the outer temple. Because this fight is optional, it is set to super hard mode all the time. There is no VX mode. The fight mechanics will be hard to learn/control, but you will find if done right, they are very fair.
A new item has been placed in the ruins called Life Stone of Ortakna. Find this stone and insert it into the statue to begin the fight. Good luck!

New Zone: Training Grounds
Introducing Training Grounds - the new big dungeon zone that became the replacement for the single Practice Dummy that was in Vormur. Find many new characters, various DPS tests and quests with worthy rewards in there!
Practice Dummies in Training Grounds have different formations that will allow you to test your hero's single target DPS and different types of AOE DPS.
Receive the assistance on how to kill every boss in the map with activated VX mode from Fledermaus and Nakram.

The terrain in the Ancient Orc Tomb, Centaur Valley and Tal'navi area got changed a lot. Be sure to visit those places and share your opinions about the terrain with me or SSrunX!
