The core of the update is Tartaric Depths, a 10-man raid, as well as the new Life Fortress Siege dubbed Xarth’s Skull and level 70 reworks for Rise of the Phoenix and Gyel Fortress. How will you access the raid if you don’t have a giant mass of friends? Why, with the brand-new looking-for-raid tool, of course.
“Similar to Looking for Group in dungeons, the Looking for Raid (LFR) system gives players the opportunity to quickly and easily join up with others and take down epic bosses where they are rewarded with gear that will help them progress into normal raids. Players are rewarded individually through the Individual Reward System.”
Trion’s promised to talk more about the update in its weekly Stream on Friday; in the meantime, the patch launch trailer and new screenies are tucked down below. Anybody giving it a go?
