Rise of Avalon Patch 13 (Balance Patch)

Use-All Button Added

Consumable items that commonly collect in large stacks can now be used in a single click via the new Use All Button in the item UI.

• Stacks of Silver Bags will be consumed instantly and grant you the full amount of Silver
  
• Tomes of Insight and chests use a channeled spell, meaning the items are still consumed individually and the channel can be canceled at any point.
  
• The following items now have a "Use All" option:
  
  • All Silver Bags
    
  • All Tomes of Insight
    
  • All Reward Chests (will display an additional window showing accumulated loot): Adventurer's Challenge Chests, Crystal League Chests, etc.
