Named the hub as Windrest and listed its facilities, replaced the generic ladder entry with the Path of Glory ranked system, and updated pre-launch framing now that the game has shipped
1-Power in Mistfall Hunter comes from a mix of talents, skills, and gear rather than a single track. Each of the six Classes builds toward its own style of fight, and the systems below are how you shape that. Several of these details come from pre-launch development notes, so treat exact numbers as build-dependent until the game ships.1+Power in Mistfall Hunter comes from a mix of talents, skills, and gear rather than a single track. Each of the six Classes builds toward its own style of fight, and the systems below are how you shape that. Several of these details come from development notes published before release, so treat exact numbers as build-dependent.22Talents and skills44Builds draw on expansive talent trees alongside active skills. The developers frame this as a way to break free from rigid class restraints, letting a hunter lean into roles like assault, mobility, crowd control, or defense rather than being locked into one. Combined with the two-weapon stances from Combat and Weapons, the goal is broad build variety inside each class. The full talent layouts and skill lists were still being revealed and tuned in the pre-launch builds, so the specifics here may change.5+Builds draw on expansive talent trees alongside active skills. The developers frame this as a way to break free from rigid class restraints, letting a hunter lean into roles like assault, mobility, crowd control, or defense rather than being locked into one. Combined with the two-weapon stances from Combat and Weapons, the goal is broad build variety inside each class. Talents are allocated from the talent screen in the hub, and resets are free, so respeccing between runs costs nothing.66Gem socketing99Gear customization runs on a gem socketing system that replaced an older random-affix approach. Affix Gems slot into equipment to grant their bonuses, with rules around gem type and level, and one wildcard socket that accepts a wider range. This shifts power-building toward deliberate gem choices instead of rerolling random rolls.1111Gear rarities1313Equipment comes in tiers of rarity. The confirmed tiers are listed below, topped by class-specific Legendary sets. Some of these high-end sets are described as Holy Relics or Holy Weapons and are tied to specific bosses or lore figures, such as the relic Absolution connected to the Blasphemer Yorol, covered on The World and Lore. The developers noted that several Legendary set names were tentative and subject to change.1515RarityNotesCommonBase-tier equipmentRefinedImproved over CommonExcellentHigher-grade gearEpicObtained via Equipment VouchersLegendaryClass Holy Relic and Holy Weapon sets, some boss-linked1717The Holy weapon tier was detailed shortly before launch. These carry exclusive gameplay affixes rather than ordinary stat lines, and they drop from map bosses, with each boss holding its own unique Holy weapon. The developers withheld the actual bonuses on purpose. The fights that hold them are listed on Enemies and Bosses.1818Forging with the Spirit Blacksmith2020Crafting and upgrading run through an NPC called the Spirit Blacksmith. Forging is time-based and happens using real-world time rather than costing Gyldenblood, and its speed is influenced by your camp building level. The Spirit Blacksmith also handles socketing and unsocketing gems.2222Loadouts and Share Codes2424A Loadout System lets you equip a full set of gear and gems with one click and save loadout profiles to swap between. Builds can be exported and imported through a Share Code, so players can pass complete setups to one another.2626The camp and Scavenger Squad2828Each player has a personal camp with upgradable buildings and NPCs, which the developers plan to expand across seasons. One camp feature is the Scavenger Squad, an idle, non-combat way to deploy units and gather resources, tied to your camp building levels. The camp is where your forging, storage, and other out-of-match systems live.29+Each player works out of the hub settlement of Windrest, which has upgradable buildings and its own NPCs, and which the developers plan to expand across seasons. One camp feature is the Scavenger Squad, an idle, non-combat way to deploy units and gather resources, tied to your camp building levels. The camp is where your forging, storage, and other out-of-match systems live.3030Named facilities in Windrest include Cazarro's shop for supplies, the Workshop for forging, repairs and gem socketing, the Training Grounds, the warehouse and its Gyldjar upgrades, the Collection Pedestal, the Tent wardrobe, Pip's Auction House, and the Goddess Statue with its Springhorn. Dew handles class changes. The full breakdown is on Windrest.32+The player economy3234Mistfall Hunter includes a player-driven Auction House where hunters buy and sell, with equipment and gems listed separately. Alongside the standard shared storage, the premium Pip's Pocket offers secure stash space. Together these let players trade the spoils they extract and bank rare finds between runs.3436Seasons and resets3638The game is built around seasons that the developers expect to run about three to four months each. A season ends with a reset: most progress is wiped so everyone starts the next season on even footing, though certain long-term progression carries over rather than being lost outright. A fresh roadmap is laid out toward the end of each season.3840The player economy shifts at launch as well. The developers plan to add more Auction House slots and to remove the automatic restocking used during testing, so the market reflects what hunters actually list instead of refilling on its own.4042Changes at launch4244Several systems were reworked for release. Buying on the Auction House was the weakest of them during testing, so the first season focuses on One-Click Buy and Quick Purchase at the Loadout Station, cutting the failed purchases that used to happen when market prices moved between selecting an item and paying for it.4446The key system grew as well. Locked treasure chambers and matching chests were added inside the maps, along with several new types of rare, high-tier keys. That gives exploration more to find and gives the player market something more to trade, since keys are themselves goods.4648SystemWhat launch addsAuction HouseOne-Click Buy and Quick Purchase at the Loadout Station; more listing slots and no automatic restockingKeysLocked treasure chambers and chests, plus new rare high-tier key typesLadder and tier rewardsA competitive ladder with rewards attached to the tier you reachCollection PedestalA display in your camp for the loot you have brought homeBattle passA seasonal pass, free for everyone in the first season49+SystemWhat launch addsAuction HouseOne-Click Buy and Quick Purchase at the Loadout Station; more listing slots and no automatic restockingKeysLocked treasure chambers and chests, plus new rare high-tier key typesLadder and tier rewardsThe Path of Glory ranked ladder, with milestone rewards at each of its seven tiersCollection PedestalA display in your camp for the loot you have brought homeBattle passA seasonal pass, free for everyone in the first season4850What the seasonal layer wraps around all of this is described on Season 1: Soul Hunt.51+Ranked progression53+Separate from gear and talents, competitive standing runs on Path of Glory, which unlocks at character Level 6 and climbs through seven tiers from Duskborn to Zenith. It is opt-in per match and per player, and only failing to extract costs you points.
