PATCH: October 19 – Server Upgrade, Bug Fixes and QoL Updates

Murderers

• Murderers that die in a Dungeon (not including Wilderness) will now always have a minimum Region Restriction of 15 minutes put in place for that region (in addition to any restrictions due to recent murders)

Aspects

• Players will no longer be able to freely swap from Fortune Aspect to Gadget Aspect or Harvest Aspect (and vice versa)

Lockpicking and Remove Trap

• Players can now enable “Continous Lockpicking” and “Continuous Remove Trap” for Treasure Maps, Dungeon Chests, and Locksmith Training Boxes
• If Continuous Lockpicking is enabled, the player will continue to make Lockpicking attempts until the chest is unlocked
• If Continuous Remove Trap is enabled, the player will continue to make Remove Trap attempts until the chest is removed of traps or a trap is detonated
• If a player’s Lockpick or Trap Tool breaks while using the Continuous mechanic is enabled, a new tool of the previous resource type will be used
• If no tool of the previous resource type can be found, automatic Lockpicking or Remove Trap will stop

Tamed Followers

• Fixed an outlier issue where a very small number of Tamed Followers had a starting Attack Speed above 5%
• The Frost Mephit “Spellchill” ability will now benefit from the “Frostbite” Utility Class Upgrade for Chill effects
• The Snow Drift “Flurry” ability now has the following description: “Fires a projectile at a target up to 6 tiles away, inflicting (DamageMax * 1.3) damage and applying a chill effect of (Control Slots * 2%) for 60 seconds (stacks up to 25%)”
• Fixed an issue where the “Pelt” Attack Class Upgrade bonus was miscalculating the ranged distance needed to trigger properly
• The “Crush” ability is now correctly labeled as a “Cooldown” type ability

Zoology

• Fixed an issue that was causing the weekly rankings of creatures for Zoology bonuses to not populate correctly (for real this time!)
• At the time of the patch the weekly rankings will be reset and randomized but should begin tracking properly in future weeks going forward

Societies

• Fixed an issue with some Society Jobs where the displayed item’s Hue didn’t match the Material required for crafting

• Player Vendors will now display the Item Count for the vendor in their menu

Stygian Rifts

• Stygian Rift events will no longer have an Exit Moongate available (too many players were exiting events and not returning)

Wall of Stone and Energy Field

• The Wall of Stone and Energy Field spells will no longer qualify for Mana Refunds (since these are almost exclusively PvP-used spells)

Skinning

• Players will no longer be prompted with a Captcha when Skinning corpses on the Ocean
