Welcome Travelers to day four of the Continuing, 9 day, Extended Hype Week, Patch Spectacle*TM!
The Depths of Eterra update introduces new and improved catalysts for concentrating your energies on what matters - culling more enemies of Eterra! All catalysts are getting new 2D and 3D art, as well as new animations, and powerful implicit affixes to curate a wider variety of builds and create more competition within the weapon configurations. Check out some examples below!
This concludes day four of the Ceaseless, 9 day, Extended Hype Week, Patch Spectacle*TM. Make sure to check back in tomorrow for two (Two, in one day!) posts on updated 3d models for existing uniques, and New Wraith models being introduced in the Depths of Eterra update.
Those catalysts look awesome but why both the tomes has a different 3d model from what is shown in .gif ? In game they look like a bland open books…so they look the same
It’s hard to see with the image quality and the visuals are very subtle, possibly too much so but it is possible to see the fingers in game. Here is a super closeup at stupid high resolution.
Where is the higher-level version of the Sapphire Tome?
Crit Catalysts have the lower level 2-4 Spell Crit implicits, and then then higher level 2-6 Spell Crit implicits. It feels like there is a new Catalyst that is missing from this announcement.
There is in fact more than one new catalyst not shown in this preview! The purpose of this post is to show some examples of the new direction for catalyst implicits (with some exciting examples), art styles, and the new rigging in game (so floaty). But there’s much more to discover once the patch drops
I hope existing unread scrolls either stay the same or convert into crystal skulls, else it would brick a lot of existing char items relying on the crit.
Something like this happened to the Bronze glaive spear which had global base crit but with the spear rework turned into coiled bident which has no crit and is poison focused.
Yes the fingers can be seen it 's ok I would just prefer other ways to distinguish both of the tomes. Like different shape, maybe pictures on the pages, ornaments, book-mark ribbons hanging down etc. Ok that could be just my nitpicking
