Live Server / Revision #40794 7 years ago

Fixes

• Coldtide Prison territory is now claimable.

Test Server / Revision #x 7 years ago

Changes

• Christmas is over, twelfth night has passed, and the decorations have been taken down.
• Fame on all Veteran and Elite mobs increased as follows:
  • Veteran - 2.5x
  • Veteran Miniboss - 9x
  • Veteran Boss - 12x
  • Elite - 4x
  • Elite Miniboss - 12x
  • Elite Boss - 70x
• Overhauled Labourer and Journal Fame values, to match new player progression numbers.
• Reduced gem chance, and increased Labourer Fame gained from gems to compensate, on Novice and Journeyman Mercenary's Journals.
• Reduced Fame requirements for unlocking Expert and higher Stone Hammers, as the lack of higher-level rock makes them advance slower on average at higher tiers.
• Killing enemy players in GvG matches now scores 4 points, up from 2 previously.
• All Hellgates in Red and Yellow zones are now T5, and contain T5 mobs.
• Transmutators now have separate tabs for Wood, Rock, Fiber, Ore, Hide, and Other.

• Overhauled the farming tree of the Destiny Board, most significantly impacting items crafted from farmables. A player who farms every day and plays for two hours every day should now find all their farm-related progression advances uniformly, and keeps up with their progression in other areas.
• Most mobs will now wait for five seconds after spawning before aggroing players around them, to give you a chance to get out of the way.

• Beginner and Journeyman Tinker's Journals should now correctly progress when crafting Journeyman's Capes.

• It should now be possible to unlock use of Undead Book off-hand and Elder's Light Leather Armor in the Destiny Board.
• Fixed icons for Trophy journals.
• Fixed the issue where "above average" and "below average" were reversed in the market window, so prices below average were shown as being above average and vice versa.
• It is now possible to upgrade to Master's Butcher.
• Fixed a bug where animal growth in territories was half as fast, rather than twice as fast as it should be.
• Somewhat reduced maximum durability on two-handed weapons to keep behind-the-scenes balance math consistent.
