Patch:6.4

Hotfix 43

Changes:

• Fixed an issue that could cause a crash when the client exited.
• Fixed an issue where other classes equipped with the Fighter's Weapon Mastery would also receive a penalty when using the class' default available weapon.
• Fixed an issue where poison damage could not be removed when hit by an enemy using the Poisoned Weapon, Over Healing and the Shadow Touch perk.
• Fixed an issue where Rogue's Pickpocket would work in basecamps.
• Fixed an issue where characters could fall through gaps in certain spots in the Goblin Cave.
• Fixed an issue where players could retain items if they were resurrected through the Altar of Sacrifice in a dungeon.
• Fixed an issue where quests that required escaping from a dungeon after using an item could be completed without escaping.

Developer Comments: We realized that in order to properly expand the bag and implement the quiver we talked about a long time ago, we would have to rework the inventory system that was hastily implemented to meet the Alpha Playtest schedule. And we've been working on it for a while and were trying to get it done in May. Because of that side effect, today's problem arose.

We will work harder to prevent these problems from occurring. Once this rework is completed, we expect to be able to provide more expanded features more reliably and quickly in the future. We apologize for any inconvenience caused due to this issue.

Lastly, in order to deliver even a little joy to players, we plan to provide 3 Bluestone Shards to all players along with this maintenance. Thank you.

Hotfix 42

Patch Notes:

• Fixed an issue where function key binding did not work properly.
• Fixed an issue where the inventory would sometimes not close properly when looting a chest.
• Fixed an issue where fighters could wear plate armor and the Slayer perk at the same time.
• Fixed an issue where Mystic Vestments were displayed as Oracle Robe when dropped on the floor.
• Fixed issue where potion liquid was displayed strangely.
• Fixed an issue where the Gold Chest was not locked.
• Fixed an issue where tar traps had strange light reflections in certain directions.
• Cloth Simulation ON/OFF option has been added.
• The maximum movement speed cap has been changed from 350 → 330.
• The exp required to level up a character has been significantly reduced. The levels of existing characters will be adjusted accordingly.
• Barbarian's Iron Will no longer ignores knockback.

• The movement speed of all robes has been changed to -10.
• The attributes of some crafted items have been changed.
• The gear scores of some (5 rare) crafted items have been changed.
• The Rubysilver Leather Cap can now be worn by all classes.
• Rubysilver and Gold ore spawns have been slightly increased.
• The entry limit for High-Roller and Trade is level 20.
• Now, when the Squire gives out supply items, if you unlock a higher grade item among Junk/Poor/Common, the lower grade item will not be given out.
• You can now multi-select random attribute filters in the Marketplace.
• The multiclass system has been added.

Developer Comments: Hi Adventurers! The multiclass system has now been added to the live servers. The level up table has been adjusted to make it a little easier to reach the 'Master Class' level and to earn the early learning tokens. All character levels have been automatically adjusted to the new higher levels and any additional learning/reward tokens have been automatically credited to the character. We have also limited the maximum number of learning tokens per character to 13, meaning no additional learning tokens are earned after level 270. The Fortune Teller’s reset timer for her Mindwipe service has also been increased and is available to re-roll your learning tokens once every Tuesday and Friday.

As we’ve noted multiple times, we are looking at this multiclass test as a true experiment for this season. Please note that there is a very good chance that the multiclass system will substantially evolve for the next season or may even be removed based on the response from the community. Finally, barring any surprises, the current season, including the preseason prior to the next wipe, is scheduled to end in early June. Thank you!

Developer Comments: This hotfix aims to reduce the gear gap and adjust balance in preparation for the excessive synergies brought about by the upcoming multiclass system. We will also be running Test #3 on the test server. Test #3 includes the initial test of the multiclass system. The mulitclass test on the test server will have the maximum test character level restricted to level 150. Additionally, to facilitate testing, the required amount of experience needed to level up has been greatly reduced allowing for quick progression. Please note that some features of the multiclass system on the test server are currently incomplete such as the ability to redeem reward tokens. We've also made several attempts to fix the significant increase in crashes since the engine update, and we'll be monitoring these logs in real time. We will do our best to fix these technical issues. Thank you and see you in the dungeon!

We've adjusted several key aspects of the game, reducing the required experience points for leveling up slightly and increasing the gold acquisition rate in normal gameplay to maintain players' sustained interest. Additionally, to provide more diverse content, we've expanded the Goblin Caves to a 5x5 layout.

Lastly, we plan to test applying a feature similar to Rogue's Creep to all classes, allowing players to utilize various strategies even in unfavorable situations. If this change has too negative of an impact, it may be rolled back in the next hotfix. We appreciate your feedback as we continue to test these adjustments.

Thank you very much for joining us through our various tests and changes. See you in the dungeon!

Developer Comments: Thank you for patiently awaiting Wipe #3. In this update, we've endeavored to enhance the game's systems based on the diverse feedback received from the previous season. The goal for this season, including the preseason, is to last approximately 3 months.

We have tested various dungeon selection systems and have chosen the optimal direction taking into account the current player base and team opinions. We understand that this choice may not satisfy everyone. However, as the team continues to expand and with the increasing number of players, we anticipate being able to select a direction that satisfies everyone.

Normal games have established themselves as a space where early players can enjoy fair competition while also providing a space to practice. To achieve this, we are introducing Squire to help you play smoothly.

In the last season, random modifiers had a negative impact on the game. To address this, we made item acquisition and selection more convenient, but this inadvertently reduced the value of items and diminished the sense of excitement when obtaining top-tier items. We now feel like we have more systems and tools to help with these issues, so we've lowered the dungeon drop rates and strengthened the modifiers a bit.

While it may not be the perfect time to test the multi-class system, we will introduce an experimental training system this season to explore the possibility of offering fully developed multi-classes in the future. We eagerly await your feedback.

To encourage more players to participate in Wipe #3, we are launching a 30% discount on game packages. We have also completed a Gift Code system that allows you to gift packages to friends. We are providing players who have played until Wipe #3 with a Trial Gift Code that allows them to play the Standard Edition for 10 days, so please use it to adventure through the dungeon with your friends!

Finally, We apologize for not always delivering perfection. We promise to continuously improve the game based on your feedback and strive to make it more enjoyable. Thank you so much as always!
