| New Einherjar Content and Adjustments
Hey everyone,
We wanted to let you know that there are two major updates planned for Einherjar!
Higher Tier Odin's Chamber
Introduction of a new chamber targeting players who are level 99.
To challenge this new chamber the following requirements must be fulfilled:
Adjustments for Accessing Odin's Chamber
Feathers required to enter Odin’s Chamber will now be purchasable using ampoules.
Ampoules will not be directly exchanged for the key items, instead a tradable item can be purchased in order to receive a specific chamber’s feather.
Possession of the key item “Mark of the Einherjar” is required to purchase these special items with ampoules.

Similar to Limbus, the basic idea behind this expansion is the introduction of a higher-tier boss battle, so we will only be adding this one new battlefield to Einherjar.
In regards to the drop rates, while it’s kind of difficult to compare and contrast drop rates between different content due to there being a variety of elements which affects the balancing, the fundamental system is the same as the original Einherjar, so hopefully this will help you gauge the drops.
The amount of ampoules required to purchase the items for feathers has not been set very high. We are currently planning to make it so they can be purchased with the amount of ampoules received for clearing the respective wing of the feather you wish to buy. To be a bit more specific, the planned costs are as follows: wing 1=1000, wing 2=2000, wing 3=3000 ampoules. | |

| We will be making it so you can obtain the Mark of the Einherjar at the Hazhalm Testing Grounds if you have acquired the “Elite Einherjar” title and possess at least one feather from each of the three wings.  | |

I'm still waiting for a reason to even play again. SE just wants to screw around, so I don't know if I'll ever play again.

I haven't even cleared Odin's chamber yet.
Accessing it now though, makes for less *** cutting to the chase for Abjurations now.
I suppose this "Mark of the einherjar" is probably obtained from clearing the entire thing by normal means I suppose.

Mark of the Einherjar is indeed obtained by gathering all feathers.

While I am happy that Einherjar will get some use again the fact that there is only one new chamber is pretty meh. Would it really have been that much work to make three new chambers you can access once you have all feathers, and a KI?

One chamber sounds really too small of a revamp, considering all of the requirements to access it can be bought.
My fear is they are taking Einherjar's revival just like the 3 step Abyssea expansion and won't unlock further chambers until later, just to drag their *** and keep us stuck in game as long as possible.

Well there was really only 3 tiers plus Odin. The 3 chambers per tier were all identical, there was no real point in having 3 different names except for the additional feather *** block.
As long as there is enough variety then it could be a decent amount of content.

I always found it funny that tier 3 chambers were harder than Odin's Chamber.

Odin in the beginning was such an awesome BC. After he was figured out it was easier but those first few times were Epic. It was also gay to wipe to him when you needed 9 feathers, but yes the Tier3s could be near impossible at times.

My hope is, they lower the price of the Amp Items buyable. Most of them have little to no use now at the 99 cap

Embrava + Perfect Defense, whatever. All of odin's attacks will pierce PD and he'll have a amnesia and a 150/tic bio aura full time.

Hmm. Seeing as Odin is dead set on destroying Alexander, piercing PD isn't such an outlandish idea. Or perhaps his full dispel that already takes your food would extend to PD...
Anyway, new 99 Valkyrie fork?

In regards to the drop rates, while it’s kind of difficult to compare and contrast drop rates between different content due to there being a variety of elements which affects the balancing, the fundamental system is the same as the original Einherjar, so hopefully this will help you gauge the drops.
