New Features

Quest Markers on World Map: Quest objective markers now display on the world map

Untarget with Left Click: Added new setting to untarget the current entity by left-clicking empty space • Special Bag Routing: Added logic to directly loot items compatible with a special bag into that bag

Combat & Balance

Buff Spells: Fixed a bug causing players over level 50 to not receive class buffs

Mummy World Boss: Added a boss task for Malbem

Arcane Nexus Riftslicer: Fixed a bug with auto attack damage type

Pet Regen: Pets now ramp HP/Mana regeneration while out of combat

Pet Avoidance: Pets now have avoidance from AoE spells, taking reduced damage

Uncrittable: Players now become uncrittable above 50% armor (may be tuned in the future, share any feedback)

Content Updates

The Peon: Fixed a bug with the cooked crab stage

Desert Gate: The gate to the desert has been opened

Augem: Extended the duration of Augem to last 24 real-world hours

Ice Fishing: Fixed a bug with Ice Fishing not respecting Hotspot catch bonuses

UI Improvements

Trading Post: Items with 0 units now hidden; default search changed to alphabetical

Trade Context Option: Added a "Trade" context menu option to all general vendors

Chat: Increased message retention to 100 lines

Infamy: Fixed a bug causing infamy to fail to clear on death

16x Ansiotropic Filtering: Enabled this on all terrain textures for higher fidelity, the performance cost should be very low

Blueprint Bug: Implemented a fix for the missing blueprints bug

Mouseover Panel Polish: Improved the snappiness/responsiveness of the Mouseover Panel

Invis Layer Bug: Attempted to fix a bug where the player characters and entities would become invisible when moving up a layer

Performance

Server Optimizations: Optimized server code for better performance

Threat System: Further bug fixes for threat clearing on monster respawns

Memory Leak Fixes: Attempted fixes for any lingering memory leak issues. We will test adding back DX12 next patch and see if we can squeeze 15-25% more CPU performance as a result, assuming memory leaks are gone

Security

Network Hardening: Extensive security hardening across game server, login server, and networking code NOTE: Yesterday around 10AM, an attacker attempted to compromise the login server; this effort failed and we took the server down to ensure we were adequately protected from this attack vector going forward. We will continue to improve security as we go
