For those who enjoy developing their character’s abilities, skill caps will be raised from level 30 to level 45. This increase comes with additional skill perks, allowing players to further customize their gameplay experience.
Adventure seekers will find new challenges in the Mines. The update introduces new enemies and cosmetic drops from monsters, adding more excitement and rewards to dungeon exploration.
For customization, players can look forward to new home upgrades, animal cosmetics, and additional furniture and decor options. These additions will provide even more ways to personalize the Mistria experience.
