Come Back Home to Asheron's Call!


Celebrating 12 Years In Dereth!

Over 12 years ago, the portal to Dereth opened to thousands of people all over the world. Once again, we are inviting all of our players home, to Dereth. There is no better time than right now, to come back to where it all began. Asheron's Call has been continuing to grow over the years. Here are just some of the new features we have added to the game!

Playable Tumeroks
Play as an Aun Tumerok which has joined the Isparians, Shadows, Gear Knights, Undead, Empyreans and Olthoi as playable races.

Melee Weapon Skills Revamped
Melee weapon skills have been revamped as Light, Heavy and Finesse weapons while Bow, Crossbow and Thrown Weapons have been combined into one skill, Missile Weapons. Now your characters can smash an Olthoi with a mace and slice a deadly Wight with a flaming sword all on the same character.

New combat skills!
Engage enemies or even other players with new combat skills. Swing with reckless abandon increasing your damage while increasing the risk you take in combat with the Recklessness skill. Drop that shield and fight with two weapons at once with the Dual Weapon skill. Deliver punishing blows to the back of your enemy with Sneak Attack, turn the fight in your favor with the tricky tactics of Dirty Fighting or try the previously added Void Magic and Two Handed Combat options.

Weapon Masteries
New Weapon Masteries allow a character to pick one melee and one ranged weapon to excel at. Choose from: Axe, Sword, Mace, Dagger, Staff, Spear, Unarmed, and Two Handed weapons for melee and choose between: Bow, Crossbow, Thrown Weapons, and Magic when fighting from afar.

Other Changes
Every race now starts with Arcane Lore trained creating equality among the races while allowing players the freedom to choose the race they want to play instead of the race with the best starting skills.
Tailoring now works with quest armor. No longer must your character choose between looking good or good stats, now you can have the best of both.

New Hunting Area
Explore the dangerous new desert hunting ground know as the Lost City of Neftet or the destroyed city of Tou-Tou which is now overrun by the shadow forces of Bael'zharon. Coming Soon!

Play as the boulder throwing, Isparian crushing, giant weapon wielding Lugians.
