Throne and Liberty Update 4.9.0 Will Bring Snowsoul Weapons and Major Nix Changes

Throne and Liberty Update 4.9.0 is scheduled to bring a new weapon tier, a fresh enemy grade, and a broad set of changes to Nix. Maintenance will begin at 10:30 p.m. PT (5:30 a.m. UTC) on August 26 and is expected to last approximately 3 hours. The full Steam announcement for Update 4.9.0 details the patch.

Snowsoul Weapons will upgrade Ascended Talandre Archboss Weapons to Item Level 85, while Party Champions will fill the gap between Elite and Boss enemies. Nix is also receiving easier field events, faster interactions, new movement options, and revised encounters across Remnants of Nix, Tumgir Vault, and the surrounding areas.

Three changes players will notice first

The new Snowsoul recipes will require an owned Ascended Archboss Weapon, new Thunderstruck materials, and the matching Skill Core. Crafting with a Skill Core will not add a Potential Ability, so the material-transfer choice in the crafting window becomes especially important when upgrading equipment.

Update 4.9.0 will also make equipment crafting less risky by requiring players to select their materials manually. When lower-tier equipment is used in a higher-tier recipe, the Potential Ability can be transferred or left behind in exchange for a chance at a random Potential Ability on the crafted item.

Nix movement is getting a similar convenience pass. Launch Circles will appear near Star Beacons, their destinations will be shown for Field Events, and the icons will remain visible on the Map. The patch also changes how Escape Ports, Party Champions, and Masarax appear inside Remnants of Nix.
