Open Beta Begins March 31!
Get ready, Adventurers! It's almost time for a whole new chapter of our journey to begin.
Thank you so much for participating in the start of our Beta Test by playing and exploring in the world of Santae. Your invaluable contributions have helped us craft new content and improve the way Santae works and feels with Quality of Life updates.
With all the progress we've made, it's time to invite a whole new group of Adventurers to join us. Starting on March 31, registration will open as we transition to Open Beta!
Let's prepare to give a warm welcome to the new friends that will join us when registration opens to the public on Monday, March 31!
Quality Of Life Update
The cooldown timer when making purchases from usershops and NPC shops has been reduced from 5 seconds down to 2 seconds.
This improvement should help make purchases around Santae more streamlined, while still securing shops against exploits and buying things with an accidental click. Happy shopping!
Our efforts to continue to improve Santae's QoL are always ongoing. If you have ideas as to how we can make your adventuring experience even better, please always feel free to drop them in the Suggestions forum!
A Treasure At The End Of The Rainbow
You're in luck, Adventurers! As a thanks for your diligence in completing her quests, Coralyn has a fantastic new discovery to share.
According to legend, the Celesticorn Skytrove Chest is said to appear only at the end of the brightest rainbows -- but Coralyn knows that the true secret to getting one's hands on this rare treasure is actually just a bit of luck. She's amassed a collection of these special chests to share. In collaboration with Vespera, the Celesticorn Skytrove Chest will be available in the Cash Shop and Dust Shop in celebration of the upcoming Sproutspire Festival!
The Celesticorn Skytrove Chest is brimming with light and magic, containing 14 special items for you to enjoy.
The treasures within include colorful new clothing for your HA -- with animated flair! A collectible book, consumables, and even a new background are among the items you'll discover inside this gilded trove.
Hold Your Horses: New Minimals Are Here
Vespera took a deep breath, relishing the cool, clear air of the skies high above the earth. Flying with River and Ripple was one of her favorite parts of adventuring!
It was always such a pleasure to watch the landscape unfurl like a map beneath her -- both the recognizable contours of the land around cities and towns she had already explored, and the exciting depths of places her adventure hadn't taken her yet. Perhaps someday she and her companions would have set their eyes on all of Santae!
For the moment, they were soaring high over a grassy meadow. The plant life below, green and gold with fresh growth, moved in ever-shifting patterns sculpted by the wind.
The wind...and something else! A tell-tale gleam of light in dawn-bright colors showed that something was galloping across the plains, drawing a wake behind them in the grassland.
River tilted her wings into a dive, swooping closer. From up close, Vespera could see them clearly: It was a trio of magical horse-like Minimals!
Even the speed from River's dive was barely enough to keep up with the magnificent Minimals as they galloped effortlessly. Vespera whooped in delight, grinning into the wind as she, River, and Ripple joined in the herd's joyful race.
This was the truly amazing thing about soaring over Santae, Vespera thought as she watched the horses pull ahead and gallop out of sight. New delightful discoveries awaited just over the horizon every day!
Blazara, Solistra, and Elarune are now available in the Cash Shop and Dust Shop!
Silvershade Is Tracking New Trails...
"Big news, Adventurers! I think I'm on the trail of something big...
"I'm finding elemental signs here and there. Frozen puddles, charred pawprints, shifted earth. I'm sure the cause is no ordinary Minimals!
"Do you trust me to lead the way? I'll show you where to find them. We can follow the cold winds to discover Auroven, the guardian of the frozen north. Or maybe track a trail of flame toward Volkaros -- a Minimal that was formed in the heart of a volcano. If we're lucky, we may even be able to dig up Thornok!
"Together, I think we can do it! Come to the Ranch to get started. I know you have what it takes to tame Auroven, Volkaros, and Thornok!"
