SEASON 10 FUSIONISTS PATCH NOTES
Welcome to the Season 10 Fusionists Patch!
We'd like to clearly state at the start of our patch notes that the Fusionists system may potentially bring imbalance in places we haven't yet predicted. Because of this, please understand that there might be patches and balance changes throughout the season. We'll do our best to avoid impacting the race to level 120, but some changes could affect it indirectly.
General Updates
Leveling Adjustments:
Lv 1 to 80: EXP gain is now about 20% slower.
Lv 80 to 120: EXP gain is now about 300% faster.
Clan size has been reduced to 20 players for Season 10.
We aim to maintain the classic Priston Tale experience while ensuring that higher levels aren't unachievable. The EXP changes are designed to keep the game engaging but also enable you to reach higher power levels than ever before!

Fusion Tier System
New to PristonTale EU is the Fusion Tier, a groundbreaking feature that brings a whole new level of customization and power to your character. The Fusion Tier is where you invest your Fusion levels (previously known as Paragon levels), unlocking powerful nodes that house Monster Souls. Each node offers unique bonuses, and specific types of Monster Souls can only be placed in certain nodes: Defensive, Attack, Utility, or Wild.
- Unlock Powerful Customizations: Enhance your character's attack, defense, utility, and PvP attributes using a wide range of Monster Souls.
- Collect and Upgrade Monster Souls: Defeat monsters and bosses to collect and consume souls, improving nodes that offer valuable bonuses to your character.
- Flexible Node System: Customize your build by upgrading Common, Rare, and Legendary nodes across Attack, Defense, Utility, and PvP categories to suit your preferred playstyle.
- Infinite Growth Potential: Earn Fusionist levels at level 80 and beyond. Even after reaching level max level (120) you'll continue to unlock new nodes monthly, allowing endless progression.
- Respec and Experiment: Use Node Reset Stones to tweak your Fusion Tier build anytime, and explore different soul combinations to master PvE and PvP.
Character Updates
- All spammable AoE skills have been buffed by 20% to 30% to enhance their impact.
