Early Access Update 0.8.0.7 for Sands of Salzaar is now live. We are taking measures to resolve some of the deeper gameplay related issues that impact your experience in this update.
You can now unstuck your character with the new feature in game settings. Opening the inventory screen in combat now pauses the game, so you can comfortably use recovery items or rearrange skills.
Further on the quality of life front, you no longer lose durability for the entire party’s items even if only a couple characters entered a dungeon, levitating some of the durability woes. Messages from other factions also no longer interrupt your more urgent actions such as preparing a siege.
We are also looking at solutions to address the following issues in future updates:
- Add new tools to streamline gear repairs.
- Fix quest item progress logic so you don't need to reobtain quest items you already have in your inventory.
Last but definitely not the least, expect a glimpse of what’s on the horizon for Sands of Salzaar soon!
