v.0.2 - Winter Event and Gems

We know this is delayed but we’re finally updating to v0.2 - which includes the winter event aka The Frostbloom Festival among other changes and fixes. We’re excited to finally share this with you - it’s just a glimpse at things we have planned for the future. We’re still working on a road map to share with you all but we’re still working on some details before releasing it. As you can see, this was a little over a month late because of the holidays and other family related matters. We’re hoping to get back on track after this update.

With all that being said, he are the patch notes for v0.2

The Frostbloom Festival has begun!

• Players can travel to Treelight by taking a portal in Defiant Citadel

• Get event specific tasks to get presents that can contain cookies, hot cocoa, gems, and even cosmetics!

• Fight the Frost Father and his minions to get winter themed cosmetics!

• New Winter themed cosmetics in the store!

• ALL COSMETICS ARE 50% OFF!

Major Changes

• “Temporary” item storage has been removed and replaced with a new system called Scavenging

  • When your inventory is full, items will now be sent to the Scavenger Guild

  • You can then buy those items back from the NPC for it’s sell price + 50%

  • We plan to add upgrades in the future to increase how many items they can have and item price

  • Scavengers can only hold up to 10 items and do not stack.

    • This means that if you have a stackable item, it will be stored as the stack you received and will not stack with other stacks

    • Ex. If you get a stack of 5 Flax, then a stack of 3 Flax, the Scavenger will store each stack separately.

• Players can now equip Gems to their characters

  • Each character has 8 gem slots

  • You can find gems from monster drops and as a secondary drop from any Mining nodes (Copper Ore and Manarite)

  • Once a gem is equipped, it cannot be unequipped and must be replaced by another gem

  • You can craft Tier 2 and Tier 3 gems at the crafting table in Defiant Citadel

  • You can view your currently equipped gems in the Character window - along with your Equipment and Cosmetics

• Quest items now have their own item storage

  • This only applies to quest only items

    • I.e. Vesper Wings will still be in your inventory since they’re also a crafting material

  • Any items that are quest only and currently in a character’s inventory have been moved to quest storage

  • Bag window now has tabs for Bag and Quest

• Players now have 2 additional cosmetic slots:

  • Aura

  • Feet

Minor Changes

• Added another objective to Proper Introductions so new players can be acquainted with Scavenging

Store

• Added the following items to the store:

  • Icy Wizard Hat

  • Frosty Cowboy Hat

  • Dark Frosty Sunglasses

  • Frosty Sunglasses

  • Snowman Helmet

    • 4 Variations with a different stripe color

  • Blizzard Aura

  • Helper Shoes

    • 3 complete color variations

  • Helper Hat

    • 3 complete color variations

Fixes

• Tasks no longer count towards quest completion and are now repeatable as intended

• Recall (and other long cooldowns) now apply correctly after logging out of a character or changing maps

• Crafting window will now show materials from both Bag and Storage

  • Crafting was working correctly but it wasn’t displaying the correct amount the player had in their Storage - leading players to believe they were crafting items without the proper materials

• Improved saving of player data to prevent mismatching states between client and server

• Resetting dungeons now requires all players to be out of a dungeon before resetting

• Improved player trading that was causing the server to crash

• Updated logic for Item objectives that were causing server crashes when players logged in after an update to a quest

• Refresh Tasks button is no longer interactable if you don’t have any gold

• Fixed size on “Refreshing Tasks…” overlay

• Players can no longer load into a dungeon before it has finished loading

  • This was the cause of invisible monsters and should stop this issue from happening

• Fighter Targe now applies its bonus on incoming damage

  • Though the description said otherwise, this item was granting a bonus on outgoing damage
