Feature Focus: Crystal Weapons and Season Changes

Crystal Raiders launches January 8, bringing new life to guild warfare in Albion. In our second Feature Focus, we take a look at the new Crystal Weapons, the changes coming to the Conquerors Challenge, and more.

Crystal Weapons


Crystal Raiders introduces three brand-new Crystal Weapons, the first in an entirely new weapon tree. What are Crystal Weapons?
  • Crystal Weapons are powerful new weapons created from Artifacts
  • Their design takes a "form follows function" approach with clear shapes and prominent crystal elements
  • The Artifacts used to create them are awarded at the end of each Guild Season in Conquerors Challenge Chests, meaning the first three weapons will be craftable at the end of Season 22 West / 4 East
  • Higher-level chests award higher-tier Artifacts
  • Each Guild Season will introduce three new Crystal Weapons, with older Artifacts still given out but in decreased quantities
  • Unlike other weapons, the usage and crafting of Crystal Weapons benefits all other weapons in the same Destiny Board tree (Warrior, Hunter, Mage)

What are the first three weapons? Crystal Raiders introduces the first three Crystal Weapons, each with its own unique spell:
  • Infinity Blade (Sword): the "Limitbreaker" ability allows you to charge up your sword and run into enemy forces, then inflict a devastating double strike
  • Rift Glaive (Spear): the "Razors Edge" ability fires a massive projection of the spears blade, which pierces through crowds and deals massive damage
  • Astral Staff (Arcane Staff): the "Starfall" ability rains a shower of deadly stars down on enemies
These are just the beginning: as seasons are now synced with updates, each will introduce three additional weapons in this ever-expanding and diversifying weapons tree.

Conquerors Challenge Changes


With the Crystal Raiders update, the Conquerors Challenge has been updated to directly reward players for both their individual progress and their guilds progress. The former guaranteed Battle Mount rewards have been replaced with new Conquerors Chests, which in addition to potentially still containing Battle Mounts also contain Crystal Weapon Artifacts and other valuable rewards. The value of these chests increases in two separate ways:
  • Individual progress in the Conquerors Challenge gives access to increasingly more valuable chests
  • Guild progress (Season Ranking) upgrades the chests earned, expanding and increasing their loot pools
    • To unlock Guild-based upgrades, players must qualify for season rewards (be part of the guild for at least 51% of the season)
  • Players are in this way incentivized to boost both their own and their guilds progress
  • 10% of the rewards from weekly reward chests have been moved into the new Conquerors Chests

Daily Might Bonus and Might Changes


Daily Might Bonus:
  • For each day in which an owned territory generates Siphoned Energy, all Guild Members get a Daily Might Bonus
  • This Might can be claimed via the Conquerors Challenge UI
  • The Might received depends on the amount of energy generated
Might and Might Level Changes:
  • Tracking now grants Might and Favor
  • Tracking Might advances the Guilds Gathering Might Challenge
  • Smaller guilds will now have an easier time generating Season Points from instanced PvP content, with the Might needed per level decreased and the Season Points given per level increased for the following:
    • Corrupted Dungeons
    • Hellgates (all sizes)
  • Correspondingly, large objectives now require more Might per level, providing an increased challenge to larger guilds. For the following, Might needed per level is increased, but Season Points per level remain unchanged:
    • Castles
    • Territory Power Crystals
    • Hideout Power Cores



Crystal Raiders launches January 8


The next update is just around the corner, and with updates and Guild Seasons now synced, Season 22/4 begins soon after on January 13. We cant wait to see how these new features play out once Crystal Raiders goes live! Read more here:

  • Albion Online is a sandbox MMORPG set in an open medieval fantasy world. The game features a player-driven economy where nearly every item is player-crafted. Combine armor pieces and weapons suited to your playstyle in a unique, classless "you are what you wear" system. Explore the world, take on other adventurers in thrilling battles, conquer territories, and build a home.



    Craft. Trade. Conquer.
    Dive in now and become part of a living fantasy world where everybody matters.

    Key Features



    From basic tools and clothes to mighty armors and powerful weapons – nearly every item in the game is crafted by players, in player-constructed buildings, from resources gathered by players. Buy, sell, and trade with other players at local marketplaces all across the world of Albion. Craft rare and powerful items, then sell them to the highest bidder and grow your fortune.



    In Albion Online's classless combat system, you are what you wear. The weapons and armor you use define your skills, and switching playstyles is as easy as switching gear. Test out new equipment anytime and change up your weapons, armor, and mounts to suit any situation. Hone your character’s skills by crafting new items, or by simply using your favorite equipment.



    From solo to small-group to large-scale battles, you'll need strategy, tactics, and skill to prevail. Test yourself against other adventurers in high-risk, high-reward full-loot fights. Level your combat specializations, create unique builds with complementary skills, and use every tool at your disposal to emerge victorious.



    Join a guild and carve out your own piece of Albion in massive open-world battles. Claim territories for access to incredible resources, construct guild halls, and conquer entire cities to levy taxes and grow your wealth. Build a Hideout to give your guild a powerful home base deep in dangerous lands. Lead your guild to victory in the Crystal League, and track your progress against other guilds worldwide on a constantly-updated seasonal leaderboard.



    Claim a city plot or private island and make it your own. Grow crops to sell or craft into food, raise your own livestock and mounts, and place crafting stations for other players to use for a fee. Stock your house with custom furniture and trophies, build chests to store your growing collection of loot, and hire laborers to keep everything at your homestead running smoothly.



    From small scouting bands to massive bosses, from dungeons to full-blown faction bases, the inhabitants of Albion’s open world await your challenge. Take on six different factions, each with different enemies that require unique strategies. Partake in solo or group Expeditions, or seek out the ultimate thrill by facing demons and other players alike in Hellgates and Corrupted Dungeons.



    Explore five beautiful biomes, each with its own challenges. Gather valuable raw materials for crafting, or cast a line into Albion's waters to catch rare and valuable fish. Seek out randomly generated solo and group dungeons and slay powerful foes for valuable loot. Enter the mystical Roads of Avalon to discover ever-changing paths between distant zones, face off against long-dormant foes, and build your own Hideout in this vast and ancient land.



    Albion Online is a true cross-platform MMO experience. Whether you prefer Windows, Mac, Linux, or even Android or iOS (mobile currently in beta), one account lets you play on all platforms, with all players on a single shared server. Forge alliances with other players worldwide and take part in massive battles to determine the fate of Albion.
