[h3]The Mists: Opportunity and Mystery[/h3]
Knightfall brings some major new features and improvements to the Mists, offering players of all types and levels a chance at big rewards. [b]Coffers[/b] are treasures that only reveal their location to nearby players, and [b]Caches [/b]offer individualized loot for clearing mob camps. [b]Knightfall Abbey[/b], a mysterious dungeon hidden within the Mists, is an atmospheric realm of crumbling stone and beautiful stained-glass windows. Seek out treasures and ancient shrines that offer powerful buffs, because you'll need all the help you can get - not only against other adventurers, but against the dungeon’s former residents as well.

[h3]New Items, Traders, and Standing[/h3]
Knightfall also brings brand-new items and crafting components, plus a new face in Brecilien, [b]Eralia Wayfarer[/b], who will trade with adventurers with sufficient standing. New [b]Avalonian[/b] and [b]Brecilien Capes[/b] offer unique defensive capabilities, [b]Mystic[/b] [b]Owl mounts [/b]carry you swiftly through the world, and new currencies and items await your discovery. The [b]Roads of Avalon[/b] have also been updated with new enemies, new paths, and greater mob density, with some mobs now dropping Avalonian Energy to further link the Roads to the new cape lines.
