Hey, just reinstalled the game after over a year of not playing. Can anyone briefly summarise what's new

, looking forward to getting back and just wondering what I have missed.

Thanks!

New boss in UW named Dhuum.
Several skill changes including Shadowform, 600smite, and probably several others that escape my mind.
I believe ecto prices have risen since you have last been on.
There has been a good number of recent bans due to botting destroying quite a few guilds.
Assassin is the toon you want for farming dungeons through speed clears.
Not sure what else to really tell you since you didn't really ask any specific questions.

War in Kryta basicly. Beside that just skill updates, nerfing some builds in the slightest bit.
Dhuum is also new in UW like already mentioned.

So not really alot of new content

You've missed three major skill updates, the addition of Dhuum to UW, the new War in Kryta content, and a myriad of small changes. The best thing to do is to just play the game. When something seems like it changed, then check the wiki or come back here with a specific question.

Thanks all

Pretty much everything. I have to warn you though, you'll have to go through lengthy dialogues to participate in the new war in kryta quests, it might test your patience.

Welcome back to the game

P.S. if i recall correctly, zaishen quests were introduced around the time you left so you may or may not have missed those as well.

Oh, yeah, if you left before April '09, there were a lot of things introduced with the 4th Anniversary: Zaishen Missions/Zaishen Coins, the Zaishen Menagerie, and Nicholas the Traveler, to name a few.
