Albion Online New Season 23 Gets Invasion Day
It’s a new season celebration and every Albion Online player is rolling out their battle plans as Season 23 begins a new installment. What has been touted for a good while now is a sudden gaming reality. The studio website declared that it was game time.
”Season 23 is underway, with Albion’s guilds building up their Fortifications, raising Siege Banners, and unlocking valuable Territory Activity Chests. And this weekend the action ramps up on Albion Asia and Americas, with an Invasion Day!
”We’ll be broadcasting the action from both servers live on AlbionTV for you. At 13:50 UTC on Saturday 18 May, join Robinhoodrs, Shozen, and Bogul for the action on Albion Asia. Then, at 00:50 UTC on May 19, Robinhoodrs, Shozen, and Tazzik will bring you coverage of Albion Americas. So tune in this weekend to see some fierce fighting!”
New Season Highlights
One of the most interesting features of the new season is the Crystal Weapons rollout. The forum stated as follows:
Crystal Weapons
In Season 23, players can earn Artifacts for the next three Crystal Weapons:
- Arctic Staff (Frost Staff): Arctic Volley continuously fires icicles in the targeted direction while you can move freely.
- Phantom Twinblade (Quarterstaff): Phantom Blade lets you summon multiple phantoms which travel while slashing through your enemies, ending with a powerful knock up from the last phantom.
- Crystal Reaper (Axe): Relentless Assault marks an area around you. While you are in this area you gain access to a short, powerful, low-cooldown dash that decreases the cooldown of all other weapon spells if it hits successfully.
The Artifacts to craft these weapons will become available in Conqueror’s Chests at the end of the season.
Here is the time scheduling and Season 23 summary as posted on the Albion Online Forum:
What’s New This Season
With the launch of Albion Europe on April 29, some significant changes are being made to optimize Guild Seasons across the three servers.
Prime Times
Prime Times have been reworked to focus on periods of high activity. Albion Americas (formerly Albion West) has been changed to more closely resemble Albion Asia (formerly Albion East), with constant action happening from the beginning of the Prime Time window to the end.
