Ok, back to NEW CONTENT unrelated to Research!
• New Spelunking Tunnel - the SCOUTPOST! Delve deep into the snowy outpost of a science lab gone wrong, and defeat the new Lore Boss to earn a new bonus fit for a Spelunking master!
• 20 new Crop Types added, grown through the Medal Seed!
• 5 New Coin Types! As always, 100 of a coin turns into 1 of the next coin type... can you get 99 of the new endgame coin??
• TONS of old bonues that were "coming soon" are HERE! 2 from the Gambit Cavern in w5 village, 2 from Duperbits upgrades in Gaming (MSA and Slab related), 1 from the Tome Epilogue upgraded in the Coral Reef, and 1 from the final Artifact in Sailing, oh and 1 from Zenith Market!
• 1 new Mob Territory and Spice to go after in Breeding! Yea, they're called Mobs now, the things you breed in Breeding. Not joking, every single mention of them is Mob. They are Mobs now and forever.
• 3 new Cooking Meals to unlock and upgrade!
• 1 new Palette Colour bonus added - Magenta now has it's bonus! All hail the Rat King and his many tokens!
• 6 New Deathnote killcounts for the new W7 mobs!
• 6 New Teal Opponents in Summoning!
• 1 new Jade Emporium purchase, the Science Chalk!
• THE GRAND TOURNAMENT is here, find it in your Codex ⬆️
• Every single day, a massive game-wide competition will take place between ALL players of IdleOn to answer one simple question... who has the best Pet Collection! [NOTE: Duplicate pets dont count, only 1 of each]. Hit the Register button to register your entire pet collection, and see how many opponents you can beat before you lose 3 lives! You fight for GLORY, not for bonus stats, as rewards are purely cosmetic!
• Lose all 3 lives, and you're out... but the final 1024 surviving players live on and make THE BRACKET, where they face off in Single-Elimination matches that the entire playerbase can watch in REAL TIME until there is but a single Champion! The Champ will win a CHAMPION PET to commemorate their achievement, so all the world can know what they achieved! Champion Pets have no stats, but they got GLORY!
• You'll earn Rank PTS based on how well you did, and can gain promotion to higher divisions if you can get enough PTS! You do NOT need to watch your matches to get your points by the way, once you register for the day you're good to go!
• Players will be rewarded with Cosmetics based on the best Division they were able to reach, so don't worry if you're demoted half way through the season. These cosmetics will serve a cosmetic purpose, consisting of what cosmetologists would deem appealing visuals!
• For FULL info on Tournaments, press the "INFO" in the top-right corner of the Tournament Lobby!
• Buy pets DIRECTLY with NO RNG at the new Pet Mart! Pets rotate daily, sometimes on a discount, and always in Tradeable form! [Pet Mart sources their pets directly from old and new sets alike, but not from bundles]
The first IdleOn MAJOR CHAMPIONSIP will take place on March 7th 12:00pm PST
Major Championships take place at the end of every season, and will consist of all players in the Gold Division. In other words, the winner of Gold Division on March 7th will be crowned the 1st ever IdleOn MAJOR Champion, and will take home an insanely special cosmetic prize, which will be revealed on March 1st.
• Added new Damage Symbols for Crystal Damage -- both M for million and T for Trillion! Can you hit the new max damage display of 999,999T?
• DB's Charred Bones & WW's Aethermoons can now be held-down on and are used one at a time, just like AC's Arcane Rock!
• Various important NPCs added to the Map Info, from Soul Totems to Subfeatures like Coral Kid and Keymaster!
• Edited the AFK-Gains display of "Ores/Logs Per HR" and "QTY of Drops" for both ores and logs, so that they are much cleaner. For example, no more "QTY Per Drop: 2423423", instead it'll show "QTY Per Drop: 2.42M"
• Breeding creatures are now called Mobs, not pets. Companions are now Pets.
• Statue Carry Capacity maximum is now 999,999,999 instead of the previous 9,999,999
• Minor adjustments to "Crop Depot" number displays in the Farming Market to make it more legible, less overlapping numbers.
• Aethermoons are now earned every 1hr, and give 1hr of dust instead as a result, so that it matches the 1hr timeline of the other Masterclasses.
• Construction "material" costs are no longer. They now just got salts from the refinery.
• POW required for last few tunnels has been lowered a lot, in the 10x~1000x lower range.
• Quick Slap bubble adjusted to be based on POW of movement speed (albeit base 2, not base 10 for those who understand Logarithmic scale) to be more in-line with "Big Meaty Claws" and "Name I Guess" bubbles which scale based on POW of HP and MP respectively.
• Coralcave Crab HP reduced: 8M -> 3M Crystal HP
• Coralcave Guardian HP reduced: 200M -> 100M Crystal HP
• Coral Reef costs for Tome, Gallery, and Ninja related corals increased by about 1.10^LV
• Octosoda will continue doing exactly what it gave you currently, which was Spelunking AFK gains, but will not give AFK gains for the rest of W7 skills. If there wasn't an abundance of All-Vial-Bonus-Multi sources, this change wouldn't be necessary, but there are, so it is!
• Charge Syphon increases Max Charge by +1000% per LV, instead of +10% per LV, but Time Candies no longer give Worship Charge
• "Total LV of Sigils" Tome Metric now maxes out at is now 120 (new sigils). It should've been 96 before because of Spelunking's bonus, but it wasnt, thats why it's jumped from 72 -> 120 at once. As such, the PTS from this metric have gone way up for maxing it, from 250 -> 500!
• The PTS from the "Total Vial LV" metric has been increased from 500 -> 600
• Added a cooldown to "guaranteed crystal mob spawn", so that you can only get 2/sec. You still get the same number of them, this isn't a nerf. The only reason I am even writing this here is because I foresee some players getting understandably confused why their first few kills aren't overloading the map instantly with crystal mobs. If you have, say, 1000/day, it'll take 500 seconds to cash-in on them all, but you will still get 1000, got it?
• Teh TOM now caps at +1200 Tome PTS. Why not +1000, since Max Lv is 500? Well, because that's misinfo, fake news, and quite frankly no longer the case, get with the program!!
• Fixed an issue wherein Deposit All button, only when it came to statues coming from storage chest, wouldnt take into account the full bonus exp from having other Zenith Statues
• Fixed Funguy's Party Crashin' Quest from being uncompletable -- if you were trying to complete it, simply forfeit it in Codex and try again now.
• Fixed the Daily Task requiring sending a "friend message" by making it require sending a "friend bonus" instead.
• Fixed the Daily Task requiring dropping a leaf on Stiltzcho, since he got moved.
• Fixed an issue where the "Grand Discovery" elixir in Spelunking could prevent you from finishing a run -- this wasn't a bug technically speaking, but it was still annoying enough to warrant "fixing".
• Fixed "Picasso Gaming" Legend Talent, the one that boosts all Palette Bonuses from all colours. I have also adjusted the bonus itself -- normally I wouldn't od this, but considering the bonus itself was incorrect previously, I am doing it.
• Fixed a small end-game overflow regarding Shrine EXP
• Research AFK gains is only for OFFLINE gains only. Online Research gains are 100%, so if you're online you're good!
• Duplicate pets do NOT count in Tournaments, and never will. You have 17 Riptides? Good for you, only 1 Riptide makes the team.
• When you Register for a tournament, you're locking in your team for that day. If you get a new pet after, it will only be in your team for the next time you register!
• Tournaments are for glory and bragging rights, not for getting stats.
• All mega-rare pets, like my very own Glunko Supreme as well as the new Champion Pets, always have just 10 Power. They have basically no impact on a tournament match... but they'll still be there, dying at the slightest tough in the first fight!
• Champion Pets, which are awarded to the winning player of each tournament, have NO IdleOn stats.
• You can change which Username you use for Tournaments on Pg 2 of "Info" found in the Top-Right of Tournament Lobby. This is seen publicly by other players in Matches, on the Leaderboard, and in the Bracket!
• Rat King's Crowns are not made equally, as the ones further down the log book are way harder to get! Have fun getting TONS of crowns early on as you reclaim all the commons... you'll miss that feeling soon enough...
