Today a Frogster announced a new content patch for Runes of Magic which will unleash the “Uber Villain as the Ultimate Boss Opponent”. A new raid dungeon, called the “Demon Stronghold” will be available for high level groups of twelve and allow players to battle the Demon Lord Sirloth. More details about the new Runes of Magic content patch and raid, Demon Stronghold, are posted below with screenshots.
The raid dungeon is available for groups of twelve high level players, and is located in the Naga Acropolis. The path to the Demon Lord leads through dungeons, cells and torture chambers. The first boss opponent is the giant Naoth in the Chamber of Punishment. Only those who can skilfully wield their powers of runecraft will be able to overcome him and penetrate deeper into the stronghold. The way to the throne room leads players past three additional bosses and loyal servants of the demonic ruler, as well as past the birthplaces of new henchmen.
In the final battle with the Demon Lord, players will have to throw all of their abilities into the mix in order to be victorious against the winged demon. Groups have to survive four phases of battle, overcome sworn helpers of the evil lord and fend off flying swords. Only then will the arch villain of the first two chapters of Runes of Magic be vanquished. As a reward, players will be able to carry off the original weaponsof the mighty Demon Lord.
