[h3]🌸 2.0 [/h3]

Going forward we’ll be releasing these main integer updates with map additions on Fridays.

This update includes two additional maps, a settlement and some more shops (as well as a couple secret shops for the upstanding and less upstanding guards.

Rozafir and Lazure Falls are the last of the ‘early-game’ areas, and is, according to Mihal’s provided map, potentially the first maps on route to Din Varens for new players. Gathering some power and supplies in surrounding maps wouldn’t be the worst idea before venturing offroad here, though the roads themselves are typically clear of any riffraff for traveling.

Some things to note:

🎄 The Vol Tree in the area provides some new summon spells of *hostile* creatures. These can be used for your advantage with synchronizing with enemy factions that would be hostile to them or a binding skill of one of your characters (each binding school of creature will attack the other, and Volling will attack all of them). These summons cannot be knocked out, and they’ll only be cast if you manually cast them.

🏋️ Weighing your guards’ movement speed has been adjusted to allow slighter faster travel outside combat. Details of this reflected in the expanded stats in the character sheet. This was so you could move a bit faster outside of combat (still the average of the four guards) and in combat you’ll probably slow down per individual’s speed stat. Encumbrance is weighed more heavily here compared to the stats before.

🚪 Door exits now display as an icon. This is easier to click with various HUD arrangements that may have been covering edges of the screen. Even in the perspective shots Exits are on the main sides of the screen (left/right/top/bottom), so when I play I usually put the HUD elements in corners, but your mileage may vary depending on your arrangement.

[h3]🌸 Next[/h3]

The next couple weeks we're primarily working on some additional fixes for 2.0 and putting the finishing touches on the sailing maps for 3.0, scheduled for later this month.

Thanks everyone. Have a nice weekend
