Greetings Adventurers! We're going to be launching a small patch for Dark and Light aimed at fixing a few bugs with the Gobboween content introduced in the last patch, as well as implementing a few quality of life changes we've been working on for a little while.
We're planning on shutting the servers off for maintenance around 1:00AM PST, Friday, 10/13, so be sure to log off before the update hits to reduce the risk of data loss.
Patch Notes
General Updates:
- New Schema - Telescope: Added to Survival Knowledge.
- Crafting QoL Changes: We’ve added a few Schemas to different inventories and increased the number of Stone Arrows crafted at once to improve crafting efficiency.
- Empty Bottles: Can now be crafted at a Magic Workbench, crafting it there will reduce crafting time from 5 seconds > 3 seconds.
- Ice Chunks: Can now be crafted at a Magic Workbench or in a tamed Ice Elemental, crafting it in either will reduce crafting time from 5 seconds > 3 seconds. Greatly extended decay time for Ice Chunks when stored in an Ice Elemental, they should last about a week in real time.
- Stone Arrows: Crafting reagent requirements increased by 5x. Stone Arrows are now crafted in bundles of 5. Magic arrows are still crafted one at a time.
- Forging Improvements: Forging is a complex system and the rewards don’t really match the effort at the moment. We’ve improved Forging speed and the value of each affix gained through successfully Forging a piece of equipment.
- Forging affix value increased by 200%.
- Forging speed increased by 100%.
- Leyline energy consumed from each forging instance reduced from 60 to 30.
- Ice Cave QoL Changes: The Ice Caves were designed for groups of Adventurers to tackle together, but the rewards are designed for solo players. We’ve increased the number of items dropped from Bytorg and Cave Yetis, as well as increased the speed of crafting in Bytorg’s Toolbox to give more people a chance to craft their new armor or weapon.
- Cave Yeti: Items dropped on death increased from 1 > 2.
- Bytorg: Items dropped on death increased from 5 > 20.
- Bytorg’s Toolbox: Crafting speed greatly increased.
