Lost Vale

Lost Vale

The ‘’Lost Vale’’ is one of the largest and most difficult Dungeons in Return of Reckoning.

In this Dungeon, players arrive on the Isle of Rebirth to try and rescue or capture the Everqueen of the High Elves, Alarielle.

This Dungeon was rebuilt by the RoR Team in 2025, and took roughly 7 months to create. The team rebuilt and restored many of Mythic’s original Dungeon ideas, and also added new mechanics, updated abilities, new armor and weapons, and wrote and added an entirely new story with the help of the Voice Acting talent first heard in 2024’s Dragonback Pass.

Darkpromise Armor

Lost Vale awards players the ‘’Darkpromise’’ Armor set, which, new from previous Dungeons, comes in the form of 3 different sets that a player may choose from. These sets are:

• Main Spec (Defensive for Tanks, Healer focused for Healers, Damage focused for DPS)
• Off Spec (Offensive for Tanks, Offensive for Healers, Survival focused for DPS)
• Hybrid Spec (A mix of both of the above sets, with a special group focused bonus included in the set bonus)

When killing a Boss, a piece of Broken Darkpromise gear can be looted from it. The class this piece is for is randomized, and pulls only from the present classes within your party.

Like other PvE Dungeons, you can also get a guaranteed piece of Darkpromise armor (even if your RNG is bad) by taking the repeatable quests found from NPCs at the very start of the Dungeon. Like Bastion Stair, these require 4 kills of a boss to earn.

This Broken piece can then be taken back to the vendors at the start of the Dungeon on the beach, and traded to them for a piece in the set the player wants to earn. Each Vendor has a different set of armor.

New Liniments

Lost Vale adds in a number of new permanent Liniments into the game.

Many of these are 30 minute versions of the previously event exclusive liniments from Pie Week and the Great Feast live events, making it possible now for players to get these even if they aren’t around during the live events.

The ingredients for these new Liniments can be found via:

• Seeds: 10% Drop chance on all bosses, higher drop chance from Treekin or Dryad bosses
• Butchering: 100% drop chance from specific bosses, can only be looted once per run

Rings

New Rings, similar in nature and spec to the Twilight's Tide Rings, can be earned in the Dungeon by acquiring certain materials and items from bosses.

These were added due to player feedback requesting a close equivalent to Twilight's Tide rings be added as a permanent addition to the game.

These rings are slightly weaker than the Twilight's Tide versions, but still close in overall stats and they maintain the crit chance or special stat bonus that makes the rings unique for many builds.

Getting a Ring

Like the Twilight's Tide Rings, players can acquire a metal (which determines a Ring’s magic defense stat) and a Gemstone (which determines the ring’s main stats). Copper, Silver, and Gold rings can be created within the Lost Vale Dungeon. (Iron and Platinum remain Twilight's Tide exclusive.)

These rings are a special bonus, with specific bosses in the Dungeon dropping the materials needed to trade for them from the vendor. Players who look for secrets might have a higher chance of earning additional materials.

Voice Acting

The Voice acting talent for Lost Vale features an entirely new cast for almost all key characters, and even some bosses, expanding significantly on the new voicework first added in Dragonback Pass, and making Lost Vale the most voiced Dungeon ever created for the game.

The RoR team would like to offer their sincere thanks to all of the Talent who donated their time and lent their voices to help bring the Dungeon to life. You can find a list of many of them below!:
