Welcome plagued adventurers to update V0.10!
Once again we have a lot of content to show you all so let’s get started!
Darkness Effect
We have added a darkness effect to the Church and some buildings in the city. This should give a more ominous and atmospheric feeling to these plagued lands. Why not take a trip to the Church in Raven’s Reach and see it for yourself! The warm glow of the torches envelops you as you enter the Church, giving a sense of calmness and peace even for a brief moment.
Monk Remedies
Monks can now craft remedies to cure sicknesses! They will use simple ingredients at the moment and will be unlocked from the start, these will later become more complex and will be locked in the Skill tree.
UI Changes
We have added a notification for when your Inventory is almost full that appears in the bottom left hand corner of the screen just above your health bar! This can also be seen on the left hand side of the Inventory screen.
We have made changes to the Profession selection images so that you can actually see them now! Each profession has been updated with both their respective Male and Female portrait icons! Look out of these in game!
Class Preview Titles
We have now added class title previews! Work your way up the ladder and become the best around!
Switching Servers
It is now possible to switch servers with the same character! When logging into a different server you will spawn at a different preset location each time. When continuing a play session on the same server you will be logged back in where you left off! We have also added this feature so that players can team up with their friends on other servers. This can also be used to switch servers if your preferred server is experiencing issues.
Optimisations and Framerate Improvements
Once again we have been working on optimisation fixes and improvements. Over 500+ static meshes have had Level Of Detail changes to them to help increase overall performance and framerate issues. We hope that your journeys across Mercia are smooth sailing!

Player written book
We have also selected the player written book to add for this update!
Congratulations to William Emmett for his submission of “The Legend Of The Wolf At Hangman’s Hollow”! Adding to the lore of Hangman’s Hollow this was an amazing read! One of our favourite locations, it is a treacherous and unforgiving place. We get the chills every time we venture through here. The level of detail in this story together with the events that take place and the harsh climate make this a fantastic read! Be sure to look out for this one in game!
Here's a sneak preview of what to look forward to:
“The next morning, I left Bywick for Hangman’s Hollow. It was mid-morning when I reached the Hollows. I had brought a sword, a dagger, a bone club, and enough food and water to last me four days. I made camp just on the out skirts”
