After the reboot on 04/26/2018, the ability of pets "Return Items" will not work if you die, being under the effect of Stalker.

After restart, humonoid type monsters will have one weapon and one armor with appropriate level range of Monster to weapon ( unique monsters will have dark items ). Every server restart will select new set of items. There are some items in which this change will not affect ( for example, Anubis Amulet, will only be possible to be looted from Anubis).

We have added some changes in the tournaments at the stage “Free-For-All” – each tact of timer maximal amount of HP and MP all of participants will decrease from 100% to 10% by 10% Decretments.

We are introducing a new service: Platinum Reborn (required client v.2.1.4.2). Any characters with 360 guild levels regardless of any available clone levels can use this service. Once used this option creates a new 360 level character with a pre-made 360 level guild build, and additionally grants a 24-hour character reset. You can use Platinum Reborn and create one more clone (the 6th). Cost: 500 platinum. No changes were done to the regular (gold) reborn ability.

We have been working hard to bring you the best experience in playing Dark Swords. As such, we have been working on some client issues and some possible solutions, the link provided will take you to a forum post where some of the more major issue's will be listed and some solutions have been addressed.

• Religion Carnival

At artifact alchemist, religion masks have been added for sale. Religion mask – changes religion of the character according to the mask type. (duration 3hr of online time). Mask can be used only at town “star”. The character who is under the mask effect becomes the religion of that mask, but takes part in his “real” religion ratings. Effect does not disappear upon the character death or upon the use of “dispel magic” spell. You can return your “real” religion back when the effect of the mask wears off, or using your “real” religion masks. This will occur on next server restart
