Patch #23 brings a rework of Castello, which has been redesigned to flow and perform better.
Toolbox users will find that they're able to place a deployable spawn in Frontline and Invasion modes, which allows allies to spawn closer to the battle.
There's also the shawm, a brand new instrument for bards to embrace.
Some cosmetics are also included in this patch, most notably the jester set.
Finally, we're enabling the Halloween event to run from today until November 6th. Log in to get an executioner's hood that you can keep, and a temporary shame mask for the duration of the event. You might also find faces have been turned into horrific abberations, and pumpkins that appear from the unlikeliest of places.
