Trove previews the Gem system coming with the Mantle of Power expansion

The upcoming expansion for Trove offers you a chance to really alter your character fundamentally with the new Gem system. A new preview outlines the workings of the system in brief while giving players an idea of what to expect. It’s quite a lot of changes, with Empowered gems allowing for major new effects like fundamentally rewriting your basic attacks or bursting into rings of fire every time you take down an enemy.

Gems can be found through adventuring in various worlds or bought via random boxes via the in-game store, with gems coming in a variety of different types with different effects. Games can also be leveled up by enterprising players, with more powerful gems also being capable of leveling up further. It’s all a very ornate system; you can find out more with the full preview, and you can also check out the latest expansion trailer just below. You could also pick up the new Extra Life bundle to get an assortment of gewgaws for the game while also supporting charity.
