2011-01-20: Religion quests and sieges: (Updates)

Added four new daily quests for religious players with the religion level ranges 15-29, 30-44, 45-59, 60+ (location - Temple of the Snake). Goal of this quest is to gain a certain amount of religious experience, as a reward - Mark of Piety - a soulbound elixir (the effect is same as Platinum Heart) which in addition could be exchanged for all sorts of goodies, that is a nice addition to the character who chose a religious path.
In order to take on a quest you would have to donate some gold for the Temple restoration (5% of donations will go to the owners of the region).


Clans that have successfully besieged or defended the region will receive:
-- for capturing the territory - 2 Mark of Conquest for leader of the clan who has placed the flag.
-- for defending the territory (from clans or monsters) - 1 Mark of Conquest for leader of the clan (if a clan leader is not online it will go to the clan bar)

The use of the Mark of Conquest will add 250 experience to the clan if it's experience is less then 1000.

2011-01-12: Desert resources running dry! (Updates)

Recent geological probing of the desert region showed a drastic decrease of its richest resources. In the last few months we had a lot of convicts send on forced labor, so all the gold deposits were depleted. At this rate the desert became a wasteland and now it is hard to come across a single golden nugget even if you go deep in to the sandy dunes.

However the penalty for breaking the law is still the same as before, so you better not end up in the Katorga or you may stay there for the rest of your life.

2011-01-08: Trading Personal Artifacts. (Updates)

Dear Players, from now on you will not be able to trade "Personal Artifacts" with another player, unless you have transfered an ownership to that player first. This was done to avoid scamming of players, but please keep in mind that it is still not secure to preform such operation with a player. There for, DarkSwords Administration is strongly recommending to use Dealers or Traders to make your deals for you.

Please keep your property and funds safe and secure.
2011-01-04: Halloween in DarkSwords! (Events)
