News: Tajendi


Hello community,
this weeks News is not only about the upcoming release of Tajendi II - The land beyond the River, but mostly. Finally, after a development time of over 2 years the work on Tajendi as an epic adventure has been completed! What first was intended to be "just" an additional custom zone evolved into a breath-taking project which at it's finalization is offering an epic storyline featuring PvE-aspects you probably have never seen in DAoC before. Following a view on the features:
DAoC graphics pushed to the maximum using over 8000 objects overall within Tajendi. An upgrade of maximum available texture layers. Intelligent usage of available effects and self made world objects and structures.
Scripted sequences to create bossmonsters that mean a challenge and not just boredom as well as scripted scenes for a more ambient environment.
A more detailed audio-experience including a lot "speaking" NPCs and additional music and ambient sounds.
More challenges due to 7 smart bossmonsters with eye-catching but deadly abilities as well as ~30 quests offering gimmicks, fun and of course exp.
... and of course love, sweat, a lot of time and a huge amount of coffee cups that would reach from earth to the moon in order to keep Metty and Haldan at work

If you want to join the fight against Churiel, we recommend you to read the event release topic and its suggestions. It contains a detailed instruction on how to install the add-on and a few hints on essential "to do's" within Tajendi. You can find the event release topic: here
The AddOn may already be downloaded and installed, but Tajendi II won't be open for public access until 12:00(gmt+2) on July, 26th (this Sunday).
The crocodiles would like to thank all staffmembers involved in the finalization of Tajendi. You did a great job. All staffmebers are rewarded with a tiny, tailed monument within the "chillout zone".
Additional News:
Last but not least we would like to talk about legendary weapons. There are still a few "real" legendary weapons out there which will be updated to "only legendary skin" weapons or will be removed within the next weeks. There is not going to be a compensation for the removal as offered one year ago, as this offer is by now barred!
With regards,
Your staff and "the crocodiles"
