Welcome to the fourth issue of The Archos Herald - your source for all the latest updates on Dark and Light’s development and community features!
Development Updates - A Balancing Act
This week, we published a small patch with a few balance changes aimed to improve the quality of life for adventurers defending their homestead. We’ll be keeping an eye on how PvP changes as we continue development, and make small changes like what we’ve done in this patch as necessary.
Over the next week and in the near future, we’ll be pushing out a few updates to address long load times when joining a server, as well as general server health improvements, and a reduction in memory usage. You may not see huge improvements right away, but we’ll be continuing to iterate and improve gradually throughout the Early Access period. Thanks as always to all of our adventurers for your patience and support!
If you want to give us some feedback about the latest patches and how you feel about the changes, head over to our Steam discussions page or /r/DarkandLight!

Updates on Exploiting
We’ve just rolled out our first wave of bans for players that we’ve identified that have been intentionally exploiting bugs for personal gain. Thanks to all of our vigilant Adventurers who have submitted reports so far - please continue reporting any suspicious activity, as well as any hard evidence, to our dedicated Player Support team in an e-mail to [email protected].
