What's new in Nox

Features

Everything we have built on top of the classic 6160 client. Items marked In development are built and being tested before release.

Legendary gear

The Epic Dragon Ball, fragments and Legendary effects.

Epic Dragon Ball

The rarest drop in the game. It turns a Super item or garment into Legendary equipment, and can drop from any monster in the world.

100% Legendary upgrade

Epic Fragments

Pieces of the Dragon Ball earned from bosses. Each one adds to your Legendary upgrade chance.

+1% per fragment

Legendary drop celebration

When an Epic item drops, night falls, the ground shakes and the whole server hears who got lucky.

5 s of night and earthquake

Legendary look

Legendary items glow gold on the ground and in your bag, with Classic-style tooltips listing their Legendary effects.

17 Legendary properties

New Legendary effects In development

Concussion, Cripple, Mana Burn, Chain Strike, Exhaust, Hunter's Mark, Shadow Step, Smoke Veil and Volley, each with a visible mark and sound. Bows and ninja gear now have Legendary versions.

9 new effects

Bleed

Legendary weapons can make the target bleed, with a visible blood effect and a countdown icon. Never lethal, and weaker against bosses.

Real boss fights

Bosses fly after you, burn the ground, enrage when low and keep to their own territory. Damage is a share of your life, so even the best gear feels the fight.

The Epic Dragon event

The Epic Dragon Ball awakens the Epic Dragon. At 30% it seals itself in ice and calls 3 guardians, then ascends. Its ball breaks into 10 Epic Fragments for the top fighters and the market.
