We would like to share an update on our current plans with the remaining Captcha God raids. We now have a multiple step plan created involving converting some Captcha Gods to Prime Gods, while most remaining Captcha Gods will be converted to timed spawn non-god raids. We plan to begin this process in the weeks following the Trial of Power once we have completed the Cycle 4 rarity updates.

Step 1 will involve converting the 10 remaining Astral Rift gods to Prime Gods and increasing their power to be slightly weaker than Elemental Masters. These will be the final Captcha Gods converted to the Prime God system.

Step 2 will be a rebalance of amulet rewards, rage requirements and adjustments to some quest rewards and god loot rewards. We plan to move all Amulet of Achievement rewards to Prime God raids and balance accordingly, along with creating a new 100 Amulet Chest to help with crew vault space. Rage requirements for all gods will be rebalanced (in most cases increased) partly due to the current rage costs of Prime Gods being the same value as their pre-conversion cost which was not designed for the Prime God system. As previously mentioned one of our goals is to avoid creating any circumstances of mass abusable content when making the step 3 changes, therefore step 2 will involve some preparation changes to quest rewards and god loot to prevent any mass abuse scenarios.

Step 3 is converting all remaining Captcha Gods to daily spawn non-god raids (similar to ethereal raids etc) and adjusting loot rates as required. This step may be done in multiple waves.

The Trial of Power has been initiated! Arkron, God of Trials has summoned combatants to the streets of Diamond City to participate in the trial. Prove your strength to obtain powerful items and prepare for the wars to come! Speak to the Trial Merchant to begin the trial!



The minions Arkron has summoned are fused with each of the original elemental powers and will drop items associated with that element. Those with the power to do so can defeat Conjurers for 3x drop chances for all items and the strongest players can defeat Trial Paragons for 3x the drop chances of Conjurers for all items excluding Trial Insignias.

During the trial, Arkrons most trusted guardian Rook will appear daily. This 20-man Prime God raid has a chance to drop items including Elementium Curios, Elementium Wands and more.

Teva, Gladiator of Power is once again available to attack. Teva will remain active for 7 days before retreating. Rewards for the top 30 damage dealers include Elementium Wand (top 10), Elementium Curio (top 30), Erupting Augment (top 30) and Recharge the Fury (top 30).

Players can only participate with 1 character per server in the Trial Insignia Contest. You can however choose any character on your winning RGA (winning server only) to receive the rewards.

The Trial of Power will end in 2 weeks, at which point Arkron himself will arrive to test your strength. For further information on these topics, see the Trial of Power Q&A on the Trial of Power page.
