The biggest changes within this update are to do with the source code underneath the game. In the first release, you will of noticed lag when interacting with items etc. if you are located far away from the server. Whilst it is not possible to decrease the travel time to the server, we have tried to let the client interact with items and then the server will update the client if the task wasn’t successfully completed. This will allow for much smoother gameplay whilst keeping fights fair.
