Skyforge Launches The Akonita Update And Discord Packs

Skyforge's Akonita update is now live, bringing with it "the most dangerous threat in the game to date," an instance taking place on the spaceship of the Gorgonide Akonita. The instance is described as follows.

This merciless creature rules her matriarchal empire with an iron fist, taking over countless worlds, enslaving their people, and stripping the planet of any valuable resources it may happen to possess. She will not rest until Aelion’s population is either dead, or groveling at her feet – both of which she considers acceptable outcomes. Take the battle directly to Akonita to stop her reign of terror before it ever has a chance to begin! Board the Gorgonide vessel, fight hordes of their most valiant, blood-thirsty warriors, evade deadly traps, and finally face off against Akonita herself in a conflict that will decide the fate of Aelion!

In going with the update, My.com has released two Discord Packs, which allow players to "battle Akonita in style." Each Discord Pack contains a set of cosmetics, currency, and items. You can find more information about the Discord Packs here.
