    New Einherjar Content and Adjustments

    Hey everyone,

    We wanted to let you know that there are two major updates planned for Einherjar!

    Higher Tier Odin's Chamber

    Introduction of a new chamber targeting players who are level 99.

    To challenge this new chamber the following requirements must be fulfilled:
    • Able to enter Odin’s Chamber.
    • Obtained the title “Elite Einherjar.”

    Adjustments for Accessing Odin's Chamber
    • Feathers required to enter Odin’s Chamber will now be purchasable using ampoules.
    • Ampoules will not be directly exchanged for the key items, instead a tradable item can be purchased in order to receive a specific chamber’s feather.
    • Possession of the key item “Mark of the Einherjar” is required to purchase these special items with ampoules.

    To anyone not used to Einherjar

    mark of the einherjar = having cleared all 9 chambers
    eltite einherjar = killing odin

    (someone somewhere still has to have 9 feather, the difference is that those can now be bought instead of farmed, so it saves 9 runs to farm others a win I guess ?)

    Most Einherjar groups have 3 feather holders so you only need 3 runs (one per tier since everyone needs one feather from each to participate on Odin) between Odins, allowing you to do him biweekly.

    Part of me wants to be excited. I have learned not to get my hopes up though. Any chance we can get an estimate of how many ampoules a feather will cost?

    also 3 days cool down so you still 9 feathers (it's quite hardcore) and probably it's 36 man still.

    Is it possible there could be more chambers? Part of the fun with old einherjar was discovering different strats for different mob types and species, including different bosses.

    A single extra new chamber just sounds really disappointing... I hope you guys have more in store for us with einherjar revamp than just a single chamber... I also hope this isn't the type of devolpment lazyness you have in mind for salvage revamps.


    Seriously, one chamber? Forgive me for expecting 4-5 new chambers with new bosses and new challenges that mimicked old school einherjar. This just sounds like a very boring grind sucking back into an event that drops old gear with no real challenge with the exception of the single new chamber.

    Hope I'm wrong about this..

    Which lasts an incredibly short duration. Basically just have to grunt and heal through the ash and trash.

    Apoc with both Catastrophe and Entropy gives you crazy sustain of both HP and MP. With the Haste aftermath you can wear a ton of -PDT and solo almost any 75 content.
    Doing damage is for WAR's, DRK is about soloing 75 content yo.....
