Hello! Azusa has been through a downtime after the latest core changes and engine update, creating some bugs and leaving the game in an unplayable state, during this last period we have been working hard to fix and review every issue we could.
New Interface
Due to the engine's latest changes, Azusa's classic interface quickly became old and heavy, so I had to change to use some native elements of the engine, resulting into a faster experience.
The most noticeable changes are the amount of elements that used to cover the play-scene now being docked, this makes rendering faster, and results in less amount of visual bugs. However the 4 new elements on the screen can be resized/dragged to fit the player's preferences; I will explain each of these elements:
- Top square is the Profile Display, here you will be able to see the other player's characters' profile information, this is also where the event window will appear when an event occurs nearby!
- Under the Profile Display you will find your chat, the most important element in a RP game.
- Far left is where your skills will be shown.
- Next to your skills is your inventory, and here is also where will display listed elements, such as contacts, and admin commands.
Travel Changes
Now that the screen range has been adjusted to fit any monitor, this long wanted feature is finally doable.
We can now travel using the mouse, clicking in the destination will make your character walk there through pathfinding, letting you tab away or chat while you travel, but since you will always need to come back and click on the next destination, going full afk is still inefficient.
The required vigor per step is also increased to fit the new system, keeping travel the challenge that it should be.
An important note is also that every "dead end" common zones have now changed. Every common zone now has sources of food, and some even have slightly more dangerous mobs.
(so no more dead ends for your gameplay)
Capricorn and a new Nature!
Also would like to introduce our 10th Zodiac, Capricorn is finally here!
This armor is heavily linked with the new rare nature: Sword.
Capricorn's skill is called Cosmo Sword and gives the user a very high Sword mod/talent (0.7) and 1 control, letting the user train, and with high enough elemental control, they can raise the strongest offensive nature tag in game:
At 1-2 tags you will see slashes when you fight in melee.
At 4-5 tags you have a chance to cause the bleed effect.
And at the 6th tag, you will be able to reach the Legendary Slash, a cut wave that deals the highest real damage ratio among all other tags: (4-60) in a ratio of 30%.
These high numbers make Capricorn very lethal in melee combat, and all they need is great element control and to practice their sword nature to become the most lethal soldier in game!

Sword is the second rare nature added to the game so far, in a list of 10 to come. (Sword and Wild are in)
and Sword has advantage against the future-to-come Dimension tag.
