The fight for humanity is spreading away from the streets and
sewers of London and moving all the way out to the mystical areas surrounding
Stonehenge or what's left of it. The first installment of the ongoing Hellgate
Chronicles is going live for subscribers on Monday, January 21st, 2008.
Stonehenge is a huge outdoor hub accessed through a special portal
in Templar Base, connecting players to several new and exciting quests. Heroes
will find themselves in completely new open, outdoor wilderness areas unlike
anything seen within the city limits of London, battling terrifying new demons
and bosses and finding new items very distinct in their appearance. This
action-packed update includes:
The Caste Caves: Unlock four unique dungeons, one
for each caste of enemy, Beast, Necro, Spectral and Demon to seek and destroy a
powerful overlord that rzsides in each cave. Defeating them and collecting their
heads will allow you to continue the adventure...
Moloch's Lair: Only after collecting the heads
from the Caste Caves will heroes be allowed entry into the lair, with a chance
to defeat the legendary Moloch, one of hell's most imposing minions who carries
very unique items that can only be obtained by defeating him in combat. And
because Moloch's soul is eternal, this quest and it's rewards can be a
never-ending challenge.
The Wild: These three mini-raid areas present
players with difficult obstacles but also huge rewards with three levels that
get increasingly more difficult even with the recommended full party size, you
will need a small army to get through these challenges.
In addition to the above, The Stonehenge Chronicles also includes
many of the other updates the Hellgate: London community has been asking for, including
improvements to game UI, a large number of skill balance changes, a PvP dueling
arena and more. Hellgate: London subscribers can also now pay for their
subscriptions via PayPal and PayByCash. For more information on payment options
