Everything New in Soulframe Preludes 12

These are the most important additions and changes to Soulframe with Preludes 12:

  • Founders
  • Zenith
  • Hard Mode
  • Fast Travel
  • More changes and Quality of Life

Soulframe Founders

The Founders are basically an early access system in Soulframe. Founders introduce “Wyld” versions of the three Starter Pacts, Tethren, Sirin and Oscelda. Each Wyld Pact will offer its own unique items, currency and codes to share with your friends. There is also a Paragon Tier Founder, that gives access to all three Wyld Pacts. Free to play players will eventually be able to acquire the Wyld Pacts by playing the game. This process will be somewhat demanding however.

Zenith

Zenith is a special vendor that you can find in the Nightfold with Preludes 12. Zenith offers the Wyld Pacts, as well as the ability to buy or sell more special items. This new vendor is obviously tied to the Founders system and will probably have its wares expanded in the future.

Hard Mode

The Cogah Elixir is a new type of consumable that you can brew in Verminia’s station. By consuming the Cogah, you activate hard mode, which makes the world and Bosses of Soulframe more challenging but also more rewarding. The Bosses are now called “Agari” and will offer many more Runes and Totems. Something that expands Envoy customization.

Fast Travel in Soulframe

Fast Travel is finally coming to Soulframe! A highly requested feature that allows players to use a Wevetseed consumable, to travel to a World Tree! This fast travel method will be limited and will not turn world exploration and traveling trivial.

More Changes and QoL

Other additions to Soulframe with Preludes 12 include new Hair and Head options, so players can give a unique touch to their Envoys, new Runes and Totems to expand Build diversity, a balance pass on Enclave offers and EXP gained from Factions Tales, new Grip Types: Greatswords, a new Mendicant King Greatsword, improved Map looks, Co-Op and Ui Notifications!

The Ode will make their presence more noticeable with new points of interest and New players will have better guidance on certain core systems of the game like spectral sight, the guiding sparrow and other early game mechanics. They will also be able to test the three starter pacts in the Nightfold before they commit to their path.

Another interesting addition that is coming later though is the Infamy System! Attacking and besieging an enemy fort will build up Infamy with them, which can trigger random attacks and unlock special items from Factions.
