Aberoth News

- Once a skill has reached level 40, or you have attained Grand Master proficiency in a spell, progress toward the next level will display with accuracy of one hundredth of one percent.

- It is now possible to exit the vertical hallway in the castle, even if it is filled with players and animals. To exit, get as close as you can to the exit and keep pressing the direction of the exit, and you should be able to make it out in a few seconds.

- When gambling at Darklow's, players may now repeat their last bet by saying 'bet'. Players may now only place one bet at a time.

- The 'vaultinventory' command now counts pets.

- If you say 'vaultinventory pets', you will see counts of each kind of pet, as well as the vault pet capacity.

- When the arcane realm of creation ends, the top 25 most skillful players will receive a new item.

- In case of high score ties for most skillful, the game now uses total experience as a tiebreaker. Prior to this fix, there was no tiebreaker.

- The arcane realm of creation will now end on December 29, 2018 at 12:59 PM PST. A brand new arcane realm of creation will open on December 30 (right after the reset) to allow new players to enter. However, players may not leave the castle until Jan 1, 2019.

- Potent acid cloud no longer causes wanted time if used in a duel.

- The ancient spellbook now holds 9 scrolls, up from 8.

- While blind, a player can no longer see someone who is protected by an amulet of preservation, or darkened by chaos.

- For private guilds, the guild motto is no longer visible on the high score board.

- Updated the terms of service to give a better indication about the severity of the various terms of service.

- A player's life skill now determines the number of other players a member may commend or condemn (up to a maximum of 25). For example, a member with a life skill of 10 may commend 10 players and condemn 10 players. This change is intended to reduce gaming of the reputation system using low level alts.

- When ignoring another player, you will now still see their conditions (confusion, blindness, etc). If someone is harassing you, calling you names, or offending you, please remember you can always take control of the situation and "ignore" that player.

- Champions level 10 and over must now indicate that they understand the Aberoth terms of service. The terms of service have not changed, and are the same as those on the web login page. Since Steam players do not log in through that page, they may be unaware that there is a rule against account trading. I recently had a few reports of Steam players being scammed by others selling accounts, so I wanted to make sure everyone who plays the game is aware of the rules (which prohibit account selling, sharing, or trading), so they do not get scammed.

- Any player may review the terms of service any time in game by saying 'tos'.
