Adventurers,

Some initial changes for "Update 2" have been rolled out. The big takeaways are the 10 new general abilities, an additional combat animation and some rework on many preexisting events. This will change some gameplay a bit when running away for instance during an event as energy will be depleted a bit due to the exertion.

Also, the scout ability has been added as a a choice you may want to opt one of your party into in order to gain more combat information on enemies.

The cleric is being worked on as well as some massive UI changes right now but hope to showcase them shortly.
