At GamesCom in Cologne, Carbine, the developers behind WildStar, introduced two new dungeons that can currently be partially tested on the public test realm.
The first dungeon is the “Protostar Academy” and is intended for players level 10 – yes, you read that right. New players in particular are currently struggling a lot with the instances or even avoiding them completely, as they present a high level of difficulty and thus differ significantly from the regular leveling experience. To facilitate the entry into the world of group play, this new instance is being introduced, which is meant to represent a new intermediate step and thus serves as preparation for the ‘real’ instances. Above all, it aims to convey the feel for the game mechanics and special requirements of these game contents.
The second dungeon is called “Ultimate Protospiel” and is designed for players level 50, particularly featuring new loot and unique boss mechanics, allowing you to delve a little deeper into the trade secrets and working methods of the mysterious Protostar company.
Whether the two instances will make it into “Contendrop 3”, which is expected in early September, is still unclear, currently, it doesn’t look promising. Instead, the content drop is supposed to mainly include a new quest area and continue and conclude the “Drusera” story – we will keep you updated. Carbine provides a glimpse into the Protospiel with this video, presented at GamesCom:
