changedThe Siege of al-MerayahFor the first time, PvE players will know the thrill of razing what their enemies have built to the ground. Stygia has consolidated their might into a fully destructible fortress built atop the ruins of al-Merayah. In the top chamber of the central keep, surrounded by his ill-gotten riches, the Commander of the Stygian invasion awaits your challenge. How you reach him is up to you!

changedOpen Your TavernCraft the bar counter, rescue the barkeep, and open a tavern where legends are born. Patrons from all over the Exiled Lands will visit, and for the right price, they will even follow you. The barkeep has their ear to the ground, and knows how to reach people. Speak to them to summon important contacts like Isscar the Sellsword, who will provide valuable items for sale.

addedBattle Pass & Bazaar CosmeticsNew cosmetic building pieces, decorations, pets, armors, weapons, emotes, emblems and more have arrived in the Chapter 3 Battle Pass and Bazaar! Rule your own wooden longhouse with the expanded Aesir building set, and make your tavern unique with new Vanir and Yamatai-themed decorations. Before employing your battle tactics in the field, test the sharpness of your wit with the massive new chessboard.

changedConan DisplatesConan frowns upon flimsy paper posters! But Displates... that’s another story entirely. In the event of an attack, you can tear this metal poster from the wall, make quick work of your enemies with a mighty jab and bash, and then – simply place it back on the wall with its magnetic pads.

fixedConan DisplatesNPCs and Followers that swap from Ranged attacks (bows) to Melee may have their rotation break. This is much less frequent with NPCs In the event that their animation breaks, there is no current known workaround. But it will be resolved on server restart. To avoid this issue, make sure to set your archer thralls to prefer ranged weapons/do not give them a melee weapon. And do not give a ranged weapon to your melee thralls. There is a fix for this issue coming in the next release.

changedConan DisplatesPlayers, NPCs, and Followers will rarely enter into an unintended animation state where they appear like a cowboy ready to quickdraw The only currently known workaround for players is to enter the jumping state Followers and NPCs will be stuck in this state until server restart While in this state, characters are unable to attack, as their animations are locked.
