Hello Realmers!

On behalf of all of the staff we hope you and your families are enjoying the holiday season!

Today's patch brings miscellaneous quality of life updates and bug fixes. Read below for all the details!

Miscellaneous

• Changed drop rates in open world for new skill books to be proportional to the difficulty of the area.
• Fixed miscellaneous room errors with object placement

Bug Fixes

• Fixed condition where malformed pocket could crash client when casting poison barrage.
• Fixed combat log for armor ignore not outputting damage properly.

Dungeons

• Recent changes to Snake Pit and Imp Haven have been ported to their heroic variants
• Updated dungeon scaling for heroic dungeons to make the scaling less severe and punishing for groups of different sizes (more detail below)
• Added dungeon scaling to remaining non-heroic dungeons
• Increased drop rate of new skillbooks in heroic dungeons
• Increased drop rate and added more drop locations for rare loot in The Underground
• Add new prestige skills as drops to DP and HC

New Dungeon Scale Rates

In addition to adding existing non-heroic dungeons to scaling, we've evened out the curve. In some case, the scaling was a disincentive to add a second or sixth player to the group. We feel that making the curve more gradual and consistent at breakpoints should help alleviate those concerns, See below for the new rates, which represent the scaling as of time of this patch. Keep in mind that dungeon scaling rates may change at any time and that this table will not be retroactively updated.

Hello Realmers,

We have applied some changes to attempt to address some server stability issues in the game. Along with these fixes we have also pulled forward the following changes:

Miscellaneous Changes

• Theurgism usage on potions has been fixed
• The Minotaur close range poison attack will no longer stun you as a side effect

Summon Changes

• Increased strength of Summon Doppleganger
• Increased strength of Illusionary Foe
• Change the following spells to summon tiers of monsters: Summon Undead, Night Friends, Summon Daemon
  • These spells will now summon different sets of monsters depending on your current level AND your spell power (skill * SDM)
  • E.g. a necromancer with a high SDM at level 1000 may summon King Kilrogs instead of traditional Daemons

Our hope is that Summons become a viable option to diffuse incoming damage in combat to reduce the dependency on pure mysticism!
