Patch Notes Version 1.0.9

10 August 2023

General Changes

  • Fishing now include some additional sounds and SFX to make it easier to notice when a fish can be reeled in.
  • Profession-level up SFXes now have a little celebration sound.
  • The AFK fishing check has been implemented for gathering nodes as well, meaning it is no longer possible to collect the same gathering node for hours on end.
  • In order to prevent congestion, players will now automatically be logged out if they are staying AFK for too long. Does not apply to vendors.
  • The item tooltips in the in-game Item Shop will now show "Soul-Linked" for all Loyalty Coin items to avoid confusion.
  • On Saturday afternoons, Drop Down and Bubble Trouble have been temporarily replaced by a round of Eggs in One Basket and Dodge Ball, respectively. Read "Additional Information" for more information on our plans regarding Mini-Games.

Balance Changes

  • The average player now has way more damage than last week, when we last applied changes to World Boss HP. As such, we are bringing them back up to par with players' equipment.
  • The Depths: HP of all bosses increased by 20 to 50%. The earlier the boss, the higher the HP boost.
  • Red Meteonyker/Lord Clockworks Alpha: HP increased by 50%.

Bug Fixes

  • iLv120 Cloaks and Masks will now be soul-bound on equip instead of soul-bound right away.
  • Potentially corrected an issue causing Shade to disappear in rare cases while fighting her.
  • Potentially corrected the issue that caused Channel 1 to go down earlier today. Additionally, we have enabled further systems allowing us to track server crashes more accurately in the future.

Additional Information

  • Regarding PvP balance:
    • We are aware that there is slight differences between the current balance and our expectations of what balance should be. However, these differences are minor at best thanks to the 15% global PvP damage increase. As such, we will not be applying changes to it.
  • Regarding Mini-Games:
    • We are working on new mini-games that cannot be destroyed by the amount of players; as in, more similar to Dodge Ball. We will be replacing Drop Down, Bubble Trouble, and Eggs in One Basket with these new mini-games once they are ready. These mini-games may return in the future depending on circumstances.
