Aaand we start off June with a bunch of fixes. ;P
Bug Fixes
- Players are no longer respawned to Elyssia Ridge in certain circumstances after the battleground ended.
- Placing monsters outside of platforms in the map editor is now handled .. more gracefully.
PvP
- The relic is now light 1, as the damage disparity between the various elements made it very easily for certain classes to break it. (Reported by Pike)
General Changes
- The upper snow plains have expanded slightly again, getting high enough to reach into an area with permanent snow storms.
- The health of the Twigmoss Caretakers is now updated much more quickly while they are channeling leech life.
- Improved the encounter code to allow the client keeping track of multiple encounters.
- The preloader did not correctly pass any parameters (such as https) on to the actual game client.
- - A bug which caused the preloader to not show a proper error message has been fixed as well, and it's performance was improved.
- Minor quest title typos were corrected. (Reported by Caydence)
- The server is now able to suspend (and continue) encounters.
- Added preliminary support for script accounting.
- For those who have already gotten one of the pets for rescuing Timothy from Sakkara in the Battle for Ashaya, Benjamin is selling the other pet for 45 Tokens of Heroism.
- Ice Skates have been added to the drop table of Ektar. (Suggested and design by Willow, drawn by Goldy)
- Also, Bizz now has her own spirit bottle! (Drawn by Scarpath)
Hunters
- Several hunter skills have been redesigned, and all hunters have received a skill reset.
- Bow Mastery is now of a more central importance, determining what kind of ranged skills you unlock.
- Hunters can now learn Charge Arrow, which lets them push back their targets with a powerful shot.
- They can also learn Touch of the Phoenix, which quickly revives their last summoned pet (or gives it a substantial heal in case it is not knocked out).
- In addition, Ragefang can now drop a Tribal Medal.
- The endurance cost of Arrow Shower has been reduced slightly.
Map Editing
- Added a
preliminary dashboard for map editing, which lets you manage and edit your map from this website.
- In addition, players can now configure their map to allow permanent access codes, which do not change unless specifically disabled.
- The dashboard also allows creating a game client, which loads just their own map.
- - The game client that is generated is hosted here, but it players can also download it to their own websites if they so wish.
- - Accessing the map using this special game client signs visitors into guest accounts.
- - Hidden guests that are observing can no longer attack or cast skills while in that status. (Reported by Libra)
