MÀJ 1.72 - Versus 22 Juin 2021

1. Demonic Pacts

For players who decide to participate, a new "wild PvP" system called Demonic Pacts will allow them to do battle just about everywhere in the world of Wakfu.

Participating in the Demonic Pacts system will provide you with substantial XP and loot bonuses, but in exchange, you'll be taking the risk that part of the experience and loot you collect will be stolen from you.

Pact statues are being added to the cities of the nations: Astrub, Amakna, Sufokia, Bonta, and Brakmar. They activate or deactivate a Demonic Pact.

Extraction altars are being added to six areas of the world to permanently secure the additional rewards obtained from Demonic Pacts.

2. Dimensional Rifts

A new feature will allow you to take on "infinite" waves of monsters.

Dimensional Rifts are inspired in part by the old Mobile Arenas, but also add some new mechanics.
They will offer unpredictable battles, each one different from the last, and ask players to make additional choices over the course of a battle.

Dimensional rifts have been added to Astrub, Sufokia, Bonta, and Moon.
Ultimate dimensional rifts have been added to the Harebourg Castle and Mount Zinit Summit areas.

6. Sidekicks

Skale

The Appeasement spell no longer unbewitches the target's states. The Appeasement spell now gives the target a mobility and resistance bonus.

• Nation benches and stools can no longer be obtained as loot. Recipes to craft them have been added to the Handyman profession.

 

Sublimations

New sublimations have been added as Dimensional Rift rewards. We have made changes to sublimations in the process.

Sublimations now have rarities.

• All sublimations present before the update, including those already owned by characters, will keep their mythical rarity. They always apply the same bonus with the same value (except for the cases of balancing described in these change notes).
• Rare sublimations apply half the bonus of a mythical sublimation.
• Legendary sublimations apply a 50% higher bonus than a mythical sublimation.
• Some sublimations do not have different versions because their bonuses are not granular enough (Save, etc.).
• Any one sublimation can be obtained in its various rarities the same way. If a sublimation has a chance to drop in a dungeon, the legendary version will only drop with a Stasis level above 20.

Let's take Healing as an example:

• Rare version (new): +1 Level (5% HP)
• Mythical version (currently owned by characters): +2 Levels (10% HP)
• Legendary version (new): +3 Levels (15% HP)
• The maximum bonus you can get through all versions of Healing remains 6 Levels (30% HP)

 

The rare, mythical, and legendary versions each have a different design. In addition, their name includes I, II, or III depending on their rarity.

A number of sublimations have been renamed so as not to conflict with this new rule.

• Ruin II is now Cyclical Ruin
• Devastate II is now Secondary Devastation
• Evasion II is now Slow Evasion
• Ambush II is now Distant Ambush
• Tenacity II is now Persistence
• Resolute II is now Obstinacy
• Lightness II is now Poise

• Return II is now MP Return
• Return is now AP Return
• Endurance II is now Prosperity
• Condemnation II is now Clamor
• Frenzy III is Focalization
• Influence II is now Slow Influence
