Better Loot At The Tower Of Despair
Lizard Interactive will release a new patch for Cronous, the immensely popular free–to-play action MMORGP game. The new patch will spawn Boss Monsters with higher quality loot at the Tower of Despair which was added as part of an expansion to Cronous in earlier this month.
Floors at the Tower Of Despair will have level restrictions and Boss Monsters on each floor will drop weapons and armor needed at higher levels. For example, floors 11 to 20 will be restricted for players with levels between 11 and 20. Items dropped by Boss Monsters on floors 11 to 20 will be for players with levels between 21 and 30. This is a more logical progression and gives players much more incentive to clear the floors of Boss Monsters.
The ‘Blood Of Matariel’ event, from August 28 to September 11, will also start with the new patch release. During the event, Boss Monster Matariel who hangs out in Evil Cunabula will drop blood every time you defeat it. Matariel’s Blood is a very rare material need to make fine magical Voodoo armor and Matariel jewelry.
