Grand story plots and new tactical play are awaiting people in Pox Nora, the online tactical turn-based strategy game with elements of collectible card games and fantasy RPGs, from Desert Owl Games (DOG).  DOG is excited to announce the release of the 28th expansion for Pox Nora, “Spirits Beyond”.
Spirits Beyond adds 51 all new Runes, along with over 20 new abilities and mechanics to the game.  The ongoing story arc of Pox Nora sheds light upon the mysterious ruins of a once forgotten city and its history.  These revelations along with the incursion of the spirit elemental, known as the Arroyo, makes this one of the most surprising and epic times in the lands of Poxanthuru.
The big new addition in Spirits Beyond is the long awaited Hand of Death campaign.  This challenging 5 mission story arc follows a band of Protectorate heros as they discover and ultimately face one of Pox Nora’s most powerful antagonists.  This campaign reveals some of the larger events that have occurred in Pox Nora over the past expansions.  The Hand of Death campaign is available for both paid and free-to-play currencies on the Pox Nora Marketplace.  Completing this brand new campaign on Legendary will award the Glimpse of Death limited edition rune!  This is the only way for player to acquire this one of a kind rune.
Features of Spirits Beyond Include:

• New League Rewards
• New Story Chapter and Campaign
• New map rotation and layout for PvE and PvP maps
• Visions of Amareth expansion added to the Rune Forge and available for gold (currency)
• 48 new runes (Cards that represent Champions, Spells, Relics, and Equipment)
• 20+ new abilities (Special behaviors, powers, and effects)

• Rune Forge weekly limit on crafting Exotic and Legendary runes has been increased
• Heroic Achievements no longer count against the daily gold limit

With the release of Expansion 28 for a limited time, there will be a Spirits Beyond Megabox available on the Pox Nora Marketplace.  This box contains 300 Spirits Beyond runes, 1500 Shards, 35 Platinum tokens, and a special bonus Limited Edition (Valdaci Emerald or Valdaci Shield) rune.  Spirits Beyond will be available at 1PM PDT (4PM EDT, 8PM UTC) on March 30th.

Paladins offered a glimpse at the work in progress upcoming illusion focused hero, Ying. Building off of trashed concepts from previous hero Evie, Ying offers a kit ideal for a tactical mastermind to straight out mind**** their foes by always staying one step ahead. Let’s look at what we know on her kit.

Her Q is the basis for the rest of the kit. She summons illusions of herself that are seemingly indistinguishable from herself outside of leaving a tombstone upon being destroyed. Ying can spawn 2 illusions, and they can’t move, though they will attack akin to turrets.

Her F, Dimensional Link, allows Ying to teleport to her illusions, or their persistent graves. She can teleport around for a 4 second duration after activating.

Dimensional Link ties in well with her alternative attack, Shatter, which turns her illusions into suicide bombers that will rush at the nearest enemy for 2.5 seconds before exploding. By throwing yourself in harm’s way, you can activate shatter and then swap places with a clone just before it explodes, leaving your foe caught entirely off guard.

Her standard attack is a channeled beam with 6 clips, 5 shots per clip. Pretty standard stuff compared to the rest of the kit.

A solid facepalm was had by all when Drybear revealed the ultimate, Illusionary Rift, wasn’t finished for preview yet. It seems related to illusions, maybe multiple, and likely is some super version of Shatter. But for now that’s all speculation and could even change as testing and balancing continues.

Closed Beta update 20 is expected to be massive, including a huge Horde Mode, though nothing was shown in this week’s Livestream related to this. But with April expected to be the biggest month of updates in Paladin’s testing so far, there’s never been a more exciting time to jump into closed beta and try it for yourself.
