Improvements
- Grindstones: the damage is increased by using on a weapon
- Powders & additions: using on an item of equipment it increases an attribute
- Watering place: for a certain time an attribute is increased by drinking
- Herbs: for a certain time the life maximum is increased by the meal
Explanation of improvements
Player improves an item by placing the improvement article with the mouse on it.
The improvements an item of equipment may receive is split into 2 categories:
- Permanent: The improvement is added permanently on the item and cannot be changed by another permanent improvement.
- Temporarily: The improvement is only active for a certain time and may be changed at any time by using some other improvement.
A durable or a temporary improvement is possible for an item.
For the deletion of durable improvements there is a special article which is sold by the merchant for rubies. However you can still win this item at the auction house to avoid the ruby cost.
Explanation of enhancements
A player uses the new watering place and herbs/food by dragging the item on the portrait at the overview.
Active enhancements and duration is indicated at overview.
Only one enhancement may be active for each type.
You may make the market offer new goods faster for 10 rubies
Damage:
Items that have +damage has been cut in half. Before the update damage was way over valued in the combat system and this reduction is an effort to bring that back into balance.
Stats:
The new stat formula is Base + Base/2 + level = max
Previously it was Base + Base/2 = max
Guild:
Player profiles now contains their guild name and link. A new area has also been added to the guild house called the library, it stores recipes and activates recipes but as of yet it is unclear what that means.
Each Guild possesses a library now and formulas may be stored and activated there. Those formulas may be gathered by fighting monsters at a low drop chance. If a guild member has such a formula, he can store it in the library, by pulling it on the shelf. Activating recipes costs gold and can only be done by members who have the right to spend the guilds' gold.
Each guild member receives an enhancement for a certain time by activating a formula. Enhancements already added by the player on his items are not wiped by this guild formula.
The number of formulas to be stored is limited and increased with each level of the guild building.
Arena:
The arena now has different groups for every 10 levels.
League of the circus fighters (Level 1-9)
League of the show fights (level 10-19)
League of the Butchers (level 20-29)
League of the cavities fighters (level 30-39)
League of the warrior (Level 40-49)
League of the gladiators (level 50-59)
League of the duel fighters (level 60-69)
League of the veterans (level 70-79)
League of the legends (level 80-89)
League of grace of the gods (level 90 - 99)
You can loot gold from anyone in your bracket and you get xp for won fights in a larger range of levels now.
Market:
The market suggests a price before you write a different one when you place an item in the sell box. Also the actual buying price of an item is displayed above the resell value of items in the market.
Food:
The price of green/blue food has been lowered
Expeditions & Quests:
The gold, xp, and honor reward for expeditions and quests has been reduced.
Bans
This section was purposely omitted to begin with because of a bug that allowed banned people to log in, this has now been corrected. If you managed to escape from your ban in this time period expect to be rebanned shortly.
Banned accounts are now brought to a screen that tells the user how long their account is banned for along with why they were banned. Previously it just showed a blank black screen.
