Patch Notes 29 December 2020

New: Added a craftable variant of the checkerboard
New: Rifts, Runes, and Imbues are now enabled on the Northern Freedom Isles
Change: Checkers Boards will now fit on more tables.
Change: Source Spring Rework
[List]
Source springs will now respawn periodically around servers with a finite amount of source.
Springs disappear once the source is collected from them.
Current source springs and fountains will also stop regenerating source in them and will disappear once empty of source.
Underground source springs that spawn upon breaking cave walls will now spawn more often.
[/List]
Change: You must now be on the same floor level as the vehicle in order to embark it.
Change: Gathering Runes and Imbue rework
[List]
Gathering Runes add +10% to the base quality, but that is capped at your skill level.
Imbues now add a bonus of up to 25% of the difference between the resulting quality and 100 at 100 imbue power. This can exceed your gathering skill.
The rune bonus is applied before the imbue bonus.
