Patches - 8.4.1.2

Prestige Classes (8.4)
I'm still considering feedback provided by players about the toughness of the end-of-game dungeon. I still don't think squashing is the right way to go, so let's talk about Prestige classes instead. Prestige classes bec…

8.3.0.0 - Steam-End Fixes
I didn't want to change the in-game info without posting a corresponding patch note, small as it may be. As a means of tidying up, the boxes formerly known as Founder's Pack Chests, then known as Gift Packs I-V, are now…

A New Tutorial - 8.2.2.0
Over the last few days, I've rapid fire pushed to the live environment some huge changes to the way Skills, Weapons, and Armor present themselves to the player. Last night, I created an in-game tutorial book item to exp…

8.2.1.4 - Systems Change Cont'd
The individual changes here on a micro level ended up being significantly more than I had originally thought they would, but on the whole this needed to happen. This is another installment of changing how things look an…

8.2.1.3 - Event Test
Very small one today - I'm testing the concept of 'temporary events' in the live environment as it relates to weapons and gear. Until the next update, items from the Tattered set will have an additional tooltip note, gi…

8.1.1.0 - Dusk Squash
I've been thinking for a while about the feedback received in the community hub and today I'm deploying the nerf. Dusk & Azroff Orcs in the final locations have a new hidden debuff which increases their likelihood to be…

8.1.0.5 Update
I hit a huge delay when making the 8.1.X.Y set of updates, so I wanted to post a bit of information as to what's been happening. I'm currently working on the third rift inside the Colosseum based on the Nexus Waterway.…

Information about 9.0
A few months ago, we talked about how the game was going into end-of-service mode. Well, I have a plan for how the second title is going to go and I think it's something I can do with relative ease provided I first do a…
