Patch Notes
Fixes and Improvements in this Week's Game Update

General

  • Bladed Dive was reported as functioning incorrectly and getting stuck during combat with Raksha. This issue is now resolved and Bladed Dive will only fail when the player has been immobilised by Raksha, which is the intended effect.
  • From now on free-to-play players won't be able to travel to the Sanctum of Rebirth by taking the gondola. Players that logged out within the Sanctum of Rebirth on a free-to-play world can take the gondola back to the City of Um.
  • "The total amount of experience..." quickchat now uses an appropriate table of data for 110 skills.

Treasure Hunter Calendar
What's up next?

Starts September 19th | Ends September 23rd | Loot Rooms

Do you take your chance with a Rainbow Chest? Or want something spicier like a Phoenix Chest? When a chest is selected, a copy is placed into the Loot Room. Once the Loot Room is full you can open all those chests for free!
