Earlier this month, Dynamight Studios announced a big update for early access MMORPG sandbox Fractured Online. The so-called Endgame Changer patch is expected to touch on everything from base game mechanics like balance and loot to PvP and mounts. Included among the overhauls is the potion and primal energy systems, which are the subject of the team’s latest video.
Dynamight boss Jacopo Gallelli explains that the patch will ensure that primal energy can drop from every monster in the game as a “sort of alternative currency,” depending on the mob’s challenge rating. Ghost mobs in particular exclusively drop sums of energy, while the best shards will be tucked away on the more elite war bosses.
Players will then use the primal energy components – along with actual gold – in the enchanting system to improve their armor and weapons. You can also use primal energy in the crafting of potions, though do note there’s a new toxicity bar that will put a cap on how many potions you’re imbibing at a time.
Endgame Changer launches February 21st.
