Kryos

The time has come! The paths have opened for our very first league: Kryos!

In this brutal, unforgiving world, fearless predators will relentlessly hunt you down.

The bitter cold is your constant enemy, relentlessly draining your health with every passing moment.

With no plant life in sight, your only sustenance comes from the hunt—a carnivore's diet is your sole path to survival.

And the endless snow? It's more than just a visual; it will bog you down, slow your every move, and gnaw at your hunger.

Do you have what it takes to conquer the elements and outsmart the apex predators? Prove it.

 Tips

  • There is a game mechanic where it pauses saturation depletion after eating, pause after eating each item to make your food last longer.

  • Walk everywhere! Running will eat through your saturation incredibly quick.

  • The world is COLD!

    You have clothing that is warm but needs to be repaired, follow the Spawn NPC quest path for sewing kits.

    When fully warm at 37.8 you will be able to stay out longer, when you reach 35.5 you best get to a warm place as your temp will drop quickly.

    Once you reach 33.0 you will slow down significantly, at 31.0 you will begin to take freezing damage and it will kill you quickly.

  • Animals will sense you and either run or fight.

    Once you hit them, they will fight back.

    Ladders might be helpful.

  • For completing quests you will receive rewards to help you in the future.
