Soulmask 1.0 Patch #17 'Beyond Gravity': Burning Highlands, new masks, bosses

Soulmask's 1.0 Patch #17, Beyond Gravity, is here, and it's a substantial one: a new region, three new masks, multiple bosses, and a required client update. Make sure to update your game client before continuing to play normally.

The headline addition is the Burning Highlands, a new area within Shifting Sands. It brings an Ancient Dungeon, Holy Ruins, Pyramid Ruins with a Ruins Dungeon, Floating Island Ruins, and a separate Ruins Dungeon added to the Star Plain Pyramid. A new boss, Central Core, also arrives at Floating Island.

Three new masks join the game: Enforcer, Shadow Hunter, and Ruler of the Barren Sands. Their drop sources are:

• Ruler of the Barren Sands Mask — Star Plain Pyramid
• Shadow Hunter Mask — Burning Highlands Pyramid
• Restrictive Module (Ruler of the Barren Sands) — Blackstone Cliff Ruins Dungeon
• Restrictive Module (Shadow Hunter) — Burning Highlands Holy Ruins
• Enforcer Mask and Restrictive Module (Enforcer) — Burning Highlands Holy Ruins

Three new Sand Bandit bosses also join the fight: Sand Bandit Shadow of Slaughter - Uncrowned, Sand Bandit King of Fiery Flames - Soulflamer, and Sand Bandit King of Fiery Flames - Bone Scorcher.

• Exploration point progress display added for each map region.
• Irreparable Equipment category added to the Dismantling Bench.
• Official prebuilt blueprints can now be selected in Building Mode.
• Hammer basic attacks are now combo attacks.
• Spear Mastery - Overturn animation updated.
• New Gene Recovery ability (default key: X) restores all HP when Severely Injured or in Feign Death; 60-second cooldown and unavailable in War Mode.
• Restrictive Module (Radiant Battle Hymn) now drops from Red Dunes Ruins instead of Blackstone Cliff Ruins Dungeon.
