The darkness amongst the foliage grows darker… the Darkspine Seasonal event has begun!

Lore:

Darkspine troops have been called upon by the nobility to secure the lands against the rising darkness. Summon your pack and join the Darkspine siege efforts against Chaos’ influence. Read about Darkspine’s encounter with The Consumed here.

How the Darkspine Seasonal Event works:

During the entire month of October, players can earn Darkspine Vouchers by completing various activities around the site. These Darkspine Vouchers can be spent within the Darkspine Seasonal Event Shop.

Darkspine Vouchers can be earned in the following ways:

Releasing Wolves

During this event, Darkspine Vouchers are rewarded by releasing wolves to help fend off The Consumed in the deep forests of Darkspine. Darkspine players will also earn double Darkspine Seasonal Vouchers when wolves are released. Go to any wolf page and click on the Tree symbol to release wolves.

Seasonal Activities

You can locate these Seasonal Activities on your Activity bar by selecting the switch button at the top right and the Darkspine Seasonal Page under the Play dropdown. Like daily Activities, more Seasonal Activities will appear on the taskbar after completion.

Seasonal Progress

Completing the above Darkspine Seasonal Activities will award points towards your Seasonal Progress to earn rewards and additional tickets. Note: Players may have made some progress in the seasonal event before release, so some seasonal activities may appear completed.

You can also unlock a Pebble Path upgrade for 200,000 pebbles to unlock the Epic Spider Web Masquerade Set. Optional copies can also be bought for Seasonal Vouchers. The Spider Web Masquerade Set will retire after the event and will be placed in the Thorned Darkspine Cache.

Games

Darkspine Arena: A PvE version of the site's regular Arena mini-game. Players can fight against 5 packs of The Consumed with no time limit between rounds. Stand above The Consumed and take 1st Place for 5 Seasonal Vouchers.

Darkspine Trials: A version of the Gauntlet mini-game where players fight consumed enemies. Reorganize your team between rounds to push yourself to the limits. This game differs from the original, however, in that beating and earning rewards for each round can only be done once per seasonal event. How far will you go this season?

New Companions have appeared in Darkspine!

The Urskoggs and Mymori have been discovered in Darkspine’s shrouded foliage. Collect these seasonal companions available for Seasonal Vouchers in the Darkspine Seasonal Shop.

The Consumed are available to recruit

Are your lorwolves hopeful to aid, curious researchers or perhaps… agents of Chaos? No matter their interests, some of the Consumed Companions are willing to join your pack. You can find them available for Seasonal Vouchers in the Darkspine Seasonal Shop. The question now is will you be able to resist the temptation of Chaos that they bring?

Consumed Bosses are planned to be obtainable via a future update to Seasonal Events.

Seasonal Apparel

Oh, you felled the beasts of Chaos? This calls for a masquerade! Darkspine nobles have summoned court tailors to spin up apparel to buy for Seasonal Vouchers. Dress yourself in elegance with the Ominous, Faded and Fey Sets.

Good luck in the Darkspine bracken, Lorfolk!

Greetings Lorfolk, and welcome back to another Dev Update!

We’ve continued to chip away at the next expansion to Lorwolf, Chapter 2: Dark Horizons. This next installment of the campaign will touch upon the theme of cooperation - where Lorians must come together to try and confront the various threats plaguing the lands. In the spirit of this cooperation, we are excited to reveal our progress with the upcoming Guild feature!

Guilds

Creating a Guild

Players can create a guild in exchange for a certain number of pebbles, or join an existing guild that is accepting applications. Everything Guild related can be found under the Community tab. Click on Guilds to start forming your alliances.

Once on the guild page, you can select to create a Guild by clicking the Create New Guild button. Decide on your Guild Name and pay the requested amount of pebbles to create your Guild.

After your Guild has been created, you can find it on the Guild page or on the Community drop-down box.

Guild Customization

Once a Guild has been created, it can be customized. Create a Guild description and application questionnaire, open or close applications, set member ranks, and adjust member permissions, such as which ranks can withdraw from guild storage or not. Customize your Guild description and applications to show off what your Guild is all about!

Joining a Guild

Navigating to the new Guild page will pull up a list of all active guilds in the game. This list includes details like the number of members, the Guild Master, guild level, and whether or not they are accepting applications. Clicking on the name will bring up that Guild’s home page and display whatever application process it may have.

Guild Activities

Once you have joined or created a Guild, you can begin participating in Guild Activities and earn Guild Vouchers!

Explore Wars - Fight against other guilds to control a portion of territory and earn rewards. Ongoing Wars are shown with spinning arrows. Only one guild at a time can control a zone till the next War on that territory. More zones will unlock with the Dark Horizons expansion.

Guild Bosses - Team up with your guildmates and battle against mighty bosses once per day. Defeating a boss grants various rewards and unlocks the next, more powerful boss. Climb up the ranks of bosses to gain greater rewards for your guild!

Guild Shop - A brand new shop that sells voucher exchanges, food, currencies, and other valuable items purchasable with guild vouchers. Upgrade the Guild Shop via Talents.

Guild Chat - Converse with others in your guild in a private live chat!

Guild Benefits

Not only are there numerous Guild Activities, but Guild members will also receive unique benefits as your Guild levels up and grows.

Talents - Enhance your gameplay experience by unlocking talents in the Guild, Den, and Profession talent trees. These talents provide special buffs to members’ regular daily gameplay - just for being a part of the Guild. These talents affect all members within the Guild, new and old. As your guild grows, you can unlock further features such as more guild member spaces, more guild storage slots, and new guild bosses. Talent Points are earned after every level increase.

Guild Storage - Allow members to store and withdraw items and pebbles for Guild use.

Sapphire Springs - Unlock this special moonwater source that can be used once per day to restore all of your wolves' stamina to full.

Can I go solo?

Yes, we plan on Guilds being an optional feature that provides specific enhancements not essential to standard gameplay or progression. For example, one talent in the guild system grants increased water and compost regeneration speed, allowing for slightly faster farming. Another talent enables Koda to catch 1-2 extra fish. This way, guild players can enjoy special rewards while not having a huge advantage over solo players. Additionally, guilds need only have 1 member, so solo players can create a guild just for themselves to receive these same benefits.

What's next?

Our team will continue development behind the scenes on Chapter 2: Dark Horizons and keep updating our community with more information on the new features it will introduce.

In other news, Autumn has arrived in Loria, and our artists are working hard to prepare for the first-ever Darkspine event, which will begin on October 1st.

Thank you all for your support so far. We are looking forward to what is to come for our community. We are open to any and all feedback about Guilds. Your input is essential for making this new feature as fair and enjoyable as possible!

Moonsblessings

Greetings, Lorfolk, and welcome back to another dev update! This month, we’re thrilled to share more details about Chapter 2: Dark Horizons, unveil new insights into Archaeology, and give you a sneak peek behind the scenes. Read on to discover more:

What’s new?

• Additional Expansion Features

• Archaeology

• Chapter 2 Campaign Sneak Peek

Additional Chapter 2 Features

Our coder JimJim has been hard at work on various new expansion features, including the Mole Market redesign, Archaeology, and many QoL updates. Additionally, there are several new features in the works that we plan on having finalized for launch; seasonal bosses, a vault system, guilds, and real-time events like notifications and live-chat! We’ve updated the Dark Horizons Expansions graphic with these new features:

Archaeology

Lorwolf’s Archaeology system will be composed of a grid of hidden treasure spots that players have to carefully dig to reach. Similar to the Mining system, fossils must first be processed, or “cleaned,” in order to retrieve their hidden rewards. Shown below are four rarities of fossils players will be able to find. Each of these fossils will contain valuable materials, apparel, trinkets, or other special items.

Chapter 2 Campaign Sneak Peek

Our writing team has been busy the past couple of months putting together the quest dialogue for chapter 2. Meanwhile, the artists are focused on tackling Campaign art like backgrounds and NPCs. Shown below is a sneak peek of each pack’s new quest hub:

As a reminder, we do not have a set ETA for when Chapter 2 will be launching, however, we will announce the date as we draw closer to give Lorfolk time to prepare.
