[h3]PvE events and activities:[/h3] - "Leaders" of some wild animals (Deer, Boar, Wolf, Bear) appeared in the world. From the corpse of such a leader, you can be guaranteed to get a head, but be careful, these animals are very dangerous. - A new object "Broken merchant's wagon" has appeared in the world. This is a group event in which you will need to not only fight off waves of mobs, but also repair the wagon itself using various items and tools.

For example, as a reward, you can get a wagon stuffed with different ore, leather or ingots of different metals. - A new object "Rat's Nest" has appeared in the world. This is a new mini-event, for one or more players. You will need to fight off waves of rats, and possibly meet the Rat Queen. As a reward, the player will be able to receive random items from the "Lost Items" list. This is a new mechanic in the game, now any item thrown on the ground with a 50% chance when removed will fall into a separate general list of items. Also, all items from the destruction of dominiums and from the corpses of players (who did not have time to pick up) will fall into this list. So you have a chance to get someone's lost items. It is important to understand that the list will be common for all items, and do not be surprised if you suddenly find only sticks and stones in the nest, because rats pull everything into their nest. - For all godsends in the game, the requirements for opening them have been changed, in some you will need to kill the guards, in some you need a tool to open. - Reduced the activity time of any treasure from 8 to 3 hours. - Now, when searching for some treasures, you will need to follow several signs.

This service is available to all members of the guild (which owns this castle) with the rank of "Knight" and above. Important, the number of repairs is limited, but the repair counter is reset after each siege or auction for castles.
