On July 22, the Paths to Glory open up. Albion’s next major update brings the Albion Journal, a brand-new chronicle of your progress which grants a host of unique rewards. Guild Islands have been reworked, with beautiful new visuals and the possibility of multiple island ownership. Improvements are coming to the Roads of Avalon, and Dynamic Spawn Rates adjust the amount of content in the Roads and open world based on activity levels. Along with new Crystal Weapons, a new Rare Quarry to track down, and much more, Paths to Glory offers a host of improvements for a wide range of play styles.
The Albion Journal
Paths to Glory introduces a brand-new achievement system: the Albion Journal. This presents each player with missions at every stage of the game - from beginner-level tasks to truly gargantuan feats for the most experienced player - divided into five main categories: PvE, PvP, Economy, Exploration, and Gathering. Valuable rewards are available as you progress, from individual mission rewards like Silver and Tomes of Insight, to unique, category-themed vanity items to show off your progress to friend and foe alike.
Roads to Glory
This update also brings Dynamic Spawn Rates to the open world and Roads of Avalon, adjusting the amount of treasure, resources, and mobs on each server throughout the day based on their activity levels. The Roads of Avalon have also had their zones and content rebalanced, to make them more competitive and exciting. Tracking is now possible in the Roads, and a new Rare Quarry can be hunted down too: the fearsome Shadowmask.
Choose your Path
Guilds can now own multiple islands - one for each Royal City and Caerleon - and these have gorgeous new visuals reflecting the biome of their host city. New Crystal Weapons are coming too, which players can earn through their Guild Season successes. In combat, weapons can be overcharged twice for an extended boost, but at an increased risk of breakage, while weapons now have all their spells available from Tier 4 upwards. A Party Ready Check function allows better coordination in group activities, and the Destiny Board has improved scaling and zooming.
With all this and more, Paths to Glory promises an improved experience in Albion whichever road you take. You can learn more about these features in this Dev Talk, and on the official update page:
