1.2.17 PATCH NOTES
The Winter Holiday Event is over and Spring has returned to the Forgotten Forests. Thank you all for celebrating the holidays with us! We hope you all enjoyed your gifts. Today's patch not only bids farewell to Winter, but also adds some new stuff for you to enjoy...
ADDED INVERSE PIEBALD PATTERNS
Each piebald pattern now has an inverse pattern which doubles the total number of piebald mutations in the game for each dragon! (was 4, now 8)
NEW SKIN FOR BIOLUMINS
Added a new uncommon spawn skin for Biolumins, "Monarch" which can be obtained by spawning from the owned DLC or from the NPC Nest on the island.
OTHER STUFF IN THIS PATCH
Free-play has ended for the Acid Spitter, Blitz Striker, and Biolumin. You get to keep your free-play dragons until they perish. Afterwards you will need to either obtain the DLC or get nested in by another player. But don't worry, we plan to bring Free-play back for our 2026 Winter Holiday Event along with a new questline entitled, "Return of the Dragonking" where you get to meet Vhrelyn and earn the "Bow" emote!
Island NPC Biolumin nest now has a small 5% chance to spawn females (previously was 0%)
Max Player Server Config Hard Cap increased (was 200, now 300). For most modern servers, we still recommend 100 players max for best playability. However, for high performance Zen5 servers, we recommend no more than 125 players per dedicated cpu physical core (up to 300).
We have a lot of cool things in store for you this year in 2026, including Skin Crafting, the Singe Crest, the Mimikor, and much much more! 2026 is the year of the DRAGONS!🐉
Oh... did we mention that Sanctuary, our most popular PvE server, can now support up to 200 players? Our Lead Dev SuperRhino did some lengthy maintenance on the server Friday and players are reporting stable gameplay performance with 200 concurrent players! Awesome right!? When our Fantasy server comes online, we plan for it to support 250-300 players. ːsteamhappyː
