[/p][p][/p][p]We’re excited to announce our largest update so far:
The Corrupted Abyss, our very first in-house developed content update! This release brings a completely reworked experience of Droes Cave of Abyss.[/p][h2]
Corrupted Abyss[/h2][p]A strange sigil has appeared in Rainbow Highlands, prompting Lord Briant to send one of his trusted researchers, Professor Auvryn, to investigate the mysterious phenomenon.[/p][p]During their experiments, Auvryn attempted to expose the sigil to a Magic Crystal, and in that moment, a dark flame erupted, opening a portal to another world.[/p][p]Fearing what unknown magic they may have unleashed, Lord Briant and Auvryn quickly began securing the area and studying the strange new gateway.[/p][p]Now, they need
your help to uncover the truth behind The Corrupted Abyss.[/p][p]Awaiting you are:[/p]
- [p]14 New Boss Monsters[/p]
- [p]26 New Quests[/p]
- [p]48 New Armor Pieces[/p]
- [p]24 New Weapons[/p]
- [p]8 New Accessories[/p]
- [p]... and much more to explore![/p]
[p][/p][h2]
Level Rework[/h2][p]Alongside the Corrupted Abyss expansion, the level cap has been increased from 105 to 120.
We’ve also revisited all earlier levels, adjusting experience gains and progression to create a smoother levelling curve. Your relative progress within your current level remains unchanged. We've also done the following changes to the system:[/p]
- [p]Characters will now receive 1 Skill Point and 3 Status Points for each level gained beyond level 100. For existing characters, these points will be rewarded retrospectively.[/p]
- [p]Experience gain has been adjusted:[/p]
- [p]You now only receive experience from monsters within ±9 levels of your character (previously ±14).[/p]
- [p]Monsters that are more than 5 levels lower than your character will now grant reduced experience:[/p]
- [p]-5%, -10%, -15%, and -20% respectively[/p]
- [p]Sea content remains unchanged and will still grant 100% EXP from all monsters within a ±14 level range.[/p]
[p]Because of these changes, all skill and status trees have been reset. You’ll need to relearn your skills at your Master NPC in town.[/p][p][/p][h2]
Skill Expansion[/h2][p]With the increase in skill points, we’ve raised the maximum level of several skills to give players more options for spending their points.

Translations[/h2][p]With today’s patch, we’ve implemented the current stage of our translation work.
Our main focus right now is on quest texts. All quests are being translated into proper English first, followed by other supported languages. You might also spot some other smaller text changes here and there.
This process takes time, but we’re making steady progress. You may still notice some lines remaining in English, these will be translated in a later update.
After quests we will focus on the other parts of the game like UI, skill descriptions, tutorials and in-game help menu.[/p][p][/p][h2]
Bugfixes[/h2]
- [p]Fixed navigation issues with WASD / mouse for certain areas[/p]
- [p]Fixed multiple instances of HP / MP regeneration not working correctly. The calculation itself remains unchanged[/p]
- [p]Fixed the upgrade animation from rapiers using the dagger ones[/p]
- [p]Fixed an issue that caused sea skills to not have any cast time[/p]
- [p]Fixed Tulach Map names and loading screen images[/p]
- [p]Fixed multiple instances of weapons from the Realm of Ruins Map having their fire animation backwards[/p]
- [p]All land skill descriptions now use their internal values to display descriptions. This means that many descriptions should now show their correct value. In some cases (e.g. Noble Teleport), the description was always wrong and now shows a corrected value that is much higher. However, the effect itself did not change. Only skills that are listed above were actually changed[/p]
- [p]Fixed incorrect order of Alchemy NPC shops[/p]
- [p]Charles now sells Antidote[/p]
- [p]Fixed an issue that prevented the status points of character classes to not show when creating a new character[/p]
- [p]Fixed ship crew employment cost not being calculated client-side and showing as 0[/p]
- [p]Fixed an issue that caused Bewildered Vampire Master in Tower to not attack players[/p]
- [p]Fixed incorrect names of Roxbury NPCs[/p]
- [p]Fixed swapped Min and Max Range Attack bonus on Rapid Fire, Kiss of Fire and Sleipnir GP95[/p]
- [p]Fixed Total Attack Stat from "Negi Robe \[Red]" and "Blackdragon Coat" not working. Those actually increased ship damage[/p]
- [p]Fixed many textures issues that should improve in more stable performance and rendering[/p]
- [p]Fixed an issue with tab targeting nearby monsters crashing the game[/p]
- [p]Fixed various client and server performance issues[/p]
- [p]Fixed various client crashes[/p]
[p]
[/p][p]We’re looking forward to your feedback. The list above may seem short, but over the past few months we’ve made many internal improvements, upgraded tools, refined workflows and much more. These changes help us work faster and deliver higher-quality updates.
While these behind-the-scenes changes are often the least visible to players, they are just as important for supporting ongoing development. However, because so many systems were improved or reworked internally, this update may also cause some unexpected issues. If you encounter anything unusual, please let us know so we can address it quickly.[/p]
