Creature tweaks

  • Hammer of Magranon is now twohanded since it was considered op as onehanded
  • Shark and bison now yield better fight skill when killed
  • Increased creature spawn rates and max numbers
  • Mrtg server graphs now work again
  • Shark distribution should improve
  • Seals, Tortoise and Crabs may now spawn
  • Fixed a bug that prevented creatures from playing the dodge animation

Bulk item fixes under way

  • We’re sorting the last issues which happened due to a bug with bulk items transferring. The reason for the bug is taken care of though.
  • Possible fix for mining when up high
  • Fix for mayor so they are able to pick locks
  • Uniques attack a bit less often. They have a bit higher Combat Rating in order to compensate.

Xanadu available!

  • Seafarers have located routes to and from the Xanadu islands! The eastern borders of the islands aligned with Independence and the western borders of Release and Pristine are now open for travel. Weird currents lead from Xanadu to Deliverance and Release and routes have been established. Furthermore – and this is probably not a coincidence – the Epic portals now have started listing Xanadu as a possible target.

Loot and disband tweaks

  • Fixed bug where settlement deeds could not be traded away from non-premium players
  • Since yesterday you now receive all upkeep back when disbanding a settlement. We also fixed a very old bug where the game gave minimum 5 silver when disbanding for no apparent reason. Some deeds disbanding however received 5 silver too little in refund since yesterday, which will be reimbursed.
  • The cost for any perimeter tiles you have already purchased is now deducted from the cost when expanding with normal settlement tiles (so you don’t have to pay again).
  • There was an old setting where deeds on Chaos had free disbands since PMK introduction. This setting was removed.
  • Scale/drake leather is now split up between those who receive blood at 80+butchering skill check*0.20 ql. (‘butchering skill check’ will be 0-100)
  • Sorcery/Epic ability items no longer drop all the time in unique corpses. 50% for non-dragon and only occasionally for dragons.
  • Unique corpses may no longer be buried in order to prevent griefing
  • Fix for valrei items found on corpse, so they are owned by the corpse initially
  • Only check village butcher permissions if its not in your inventory
