Eldara Update — Rebirth Rework, Houses Freed & More
✦ Rebirth Overhaul
You keep your progress now. Rebirthing no longer wipes everything — your upgrades (including Hunting Store unlocks), gathering tools, monster prestige, pets, and House reputation all carry over. Only levels, gold, inventory, combat gear, bank, and collection log reset.
Fixed an issue where rebirth could fail to fully reset — the reset is now reliable.
A permanent Rebirth bonus chip now displays your +XP / +Luck on your skill panels, and every XP value on your cards now reflects your rebirth multiplier — what you see is what you receive.
⚔ Houses / Factions
The oath is now optional. Declining a House's invitation no longer removes 80 standing — it costs nothing.
You can level all three Houses for all their perks (perks stack by reputation). The oath grants only that one House's Member's Favor, one at a time. Swearing to a House does NOT lock you out of the others.
💀 Hardcore Clarity
Hardcore's -50% XP/Gold penalty is now shown everywhere. Quest, story, contract, and achievement reward numbers display what you will actually receive, and a clear Hardcore chip names the penalty on your skill panels.
🎒 Backpacks, Bank & Loot
Offline gathering now respects your backpack assignments.
Shift-click a bag item to stash the entire stack (matching the bank).
The backpack list no longer scrolls back to the top when you click.
Deleting a bank tab now moves its items to the next tab — they are never lost.
Loot box: gold no longer gets stuck in the box while Auto-Stack is enabled.
🏹 Hunting Store
New — Quartermaster's Ledger: craft, cook, smith, fletch, and process directly from your bank.
New — Beastcaller's Whistle: +75% chance to find skill pets, both while playing and while away.
Store reorganized — cards aligned and sorted by cost, with a clear note that Hunting Points come only from contracts (Auto-Accept keeps earning them; offline progress never does).
💰 Economy & Monsters
Monster gold rebalanced so every monster pays strictly more than the previous one — a clean upgrade ladder with no duplicate values.
Gold now rounds up on a half (1.5 becomes 2), so you're never rounded down.
🌱 Cultivating
Added a note clarifying that you can grow more than one crop at once — one plot per crop, all growing in parallel.
