Features[ | ]

  • Fenrir Variants
    • With our first Mid-Saga update comes the debut of our Saga Boss Variant system. Now, when starting a new World, there is a 50/50 chance that you will encounter one of two Fenrir variations at the end of your Saga Quest. Keep an eye out for visual differences in the Myth Lair entrance and the Arena itself to foreshadow which version you'll be facing off against. See Content section below for more details.
  • New Challenge Types:
    • We've added recurring Daily and Weekly Challenge types that can be completed for continual rewards, such as Golden Horns and Season XP to help progress you through the Season Rewards track.

  • Wolfmancer Fenrir:
    • Sporting a fresh look, this new Fenrir Variant never fights alone, for he is a master of magic… wolf magic! Throughout your encounter with Wolfmancer Fenrir, he will summon his wolf allies to distract and overwhelm you, in addition to attacking you directly (he fights dirty). Should Wolfmancer Fenrir be reduced to 50% HP, he will call for aid from his most trustworthy of wolf allies, the gigantic and deadly Sköll and Hati. Good luck!
  • Doomhowler Fenrir:
    • The wolf formerly known simply as Fenrir has taken up the new mantle of Doomhowler. Why? Well, because he's honed his signature Howl ability to be even more deadly (doomful?). When below the 50% HP threshold, Doomhowler Fenrir will shoot out magical projectiles in all directions every time he uses his Howl ability. Stay nimble and you might just make it through in one piece.

Gameplay Changes – Combat/Blessings Update[ | ]

  • Armor System Update:
    • We have globally buffed Armor and Shields' impact on mitigating damage to the player, affecting all tiers of Equipment. Due to this, the Defense rating on Armor, and any Runes or Blessings that further buff that Rating, will be more noticeable and do a better job of keeping you safe out there in Midgard.
  • Class Blessings
    • Ranger:
    • Hunter:
      • Skaði's Spirit I: now spawns 100% of the time, with a cooldown between uses, and continually taunts nearby enemies.
      • Bountiful Grasp: now doubles all Materials harvested regardless of source.
      • Pushing Limits: increased the knockback effect but only triggers on the final combo hit.
    • Warrior:
      • Reckless Roll: Now working as intended in that it does not affect the entire rolling animation. Added a visual cue to indicate the timing during the roll in which the Warrior is invincible.
    • Berserker:
      • Striking Fear: No longer affects weapon durability when triggered.
      • Wrath Unleashed: Adjusted the Blessing Tree layout so that this Blessing is more of a conscious decision for players if they want to expend their Wrath gauge for the explosion damage or not.
    • Sentinel:
  • Combat Improvements:
    • Pressing inputs before the end of Rolling, Bow aiming and Shield blocking animations now skips recovery and feels more responsive.
    • Blocking stance effect is now active immediately upon pressing the input, even if the animation is not finished.
    • Cooldowns of Class Spells are now always visible in the HUD.

Balance Changes[ | ]

Norsfell: We've been monitoring the playstyles and emerging meta strategies from the Community since launch, and with the Mid-Saga update we wanted to empower players with a wider variety of suitable options to shake up that meta and add some more diversity to player builds. This included taking a look at some Runes that we felt were not strong enough on their own, leading to the game being harder than anticipated without the ideal Rune setup. The Rune changes below, coupled with the Armor System Update above, should allow for a wider variety of powerful builds to take on the dangers of Midgard with.

Rune Effects[ | ]

Rune Rarities[ | ]

Crafting[ | ]

  • Legendary Weapons that do not require previous Weapon tiers in their Recipe have an increased Golden Horns Cost from 1 to 4 to make the resource investments more equal across Legendaries.
    • Norsfell: Worth noting that with the addition of Daily Challenges, players will have even more opportunities to earn Golden Horns on a regular basis for spending on Crafting, at the Golden Altar, or in the Shop.

QoL Changes[ | ]

  • War Chest Loot:
    • When players Abandon a Multiplayer game from within one, or take the Bifröst, their entire loot is automatically deposited into the War Chest and can be accessed by the remaining players. An Exit Alert message has also been added to clarify the manner of players' exits and states that their Inventory has been transferred to the War Chest.
  • Explosive Jar Placement:
    • When placing an Explosive Jar, it now appears behind the character instead of in front of it, allowing players to more easily set traps while fleeing the enemy.
  • Village Shrine:
    • When at a Shrine and choosing your destination, pressing the CTRL (PC) / Triangle (PlayStation) button causes the cursor to center exactly on the Village Shrine to allow for faster teleporting home
  • Quest Board Organization:
    • Quests listed in the Quest Board are now organized by difficulty, from easiest to hardest.
  • Bifröst Pop-Up:
    • When exiting through the Bifröst, the default button selected is now Yes instead of No, allowing players to quickly leave the game and bank those rewards when time is nigh.
  • Screen Shake Toggle:
    • Players can now toggle On (default) or Off this option from the Settings menu.
  • Waystone Activation:
    • Players can also now choose if the activation for their Waystone is a Toggle (default) or a Hold input.
  • Loot Chest Angle:
    • Loot Chests that spawn when a player's Viking dies will now spawn at a default 45 degree angle to ease visualization.
  • Accessories Tab:
    • We've reworked the Customize menu, adding an Accessories Tab to house the player's choice of Starter Kits, Pets, and now Loot Chests.

Notable Bug Fixes[ | ]

  • We have pinpointed a number of issues affecting the performance of PS5 users. We've made some changes that should result in a notable performance improvement and will continue to optimize all versions of Tribes of Midgard with future updates to present the best looking, and best playing, experience possible.
  • Fixed an issue where level 50 players would only see their level as 49 in-game
  • Fixed some instances of players experiencing an infinite load at times of high latency
  • Fixed a number of instances in which Rune effects would not stack properly
  • … and many more improvements!
