The Beast Hunt
New Region: Brigga
A new region is now available. Brigga is a barren and hostile land to the south of Ludern, where the Elite Trackers have gathered to face a legendary threat. Their target is the Beast, a cursed creature that resurfaces every few years and poses a danger to the Five Kingdoms. Their goal is to stop it before it can reach other lands.
Beast Tracking Gameplay
To support the Trackers, you will explore Brigga in search of clues that reveal the Beast’s hidden lair. Once found, you can strike when it is most vulnerable. During the hunt, you can earn bonuses that will help you in combat against the Beast and the Ghost Pack enemies. The Beast is not confined to one place and may appear throughout the region at any time.
Beast Influence
The Beast has a disturbing effect on animals in your troop, they may come under its influence and transform into Ghost Pack monsters. Once this happens, there is no way to get them back. Keeping your animals safe from this influence is part of the challenge in Brigga. Perhaps you could find a cure…
The Heralds
Some animals that have remained close to the Beast for too long have turned into powerful, mutated enemies called the Heralds. You will need to locate and eliminate the three of them with the help of the Elite Trackers in order to weaken the Beast.
The Beast Fight
The final battle against the Beast will test the full strength of your troop. This is a major encounter, similar in scale to the fight against the Sea Serpent found in the Pirates of Belerion DLC. If you succeed, you will gain access to new crafting materials used to forge new weapons. This new set of weaponry is available for all classes and introduces a new gameplay mechanic known as the Mark of the Beast.
This new boss will return in the future, and when it does, the Trackers will need your help once again.
