Join Us On Discord (& 6.503 Patch Notes)
Between yesterday and today, I was able to make solid progress fixing some things that need to be fixed before moving forward. A little while ago tonight, I released a build that allows for interacting with the Rabbit's Foot crew in Agartha during the events of the Orc War. You must progress completely through everything available in Auria and Shoreline Area to open the building in Agartha. In a build in the near future, progression will be forced through Agartha rather than potentially discovered as it is right now. The ability to go there at this point will remain intact regardless.
Last night, without posting about the update, terrain changes were made to Scarlet Cavern and Nexus Waterway. This change includes important loot - so check it out if you're strong enough!
Next up, I'm going to start using my Discord server more for Cross of Auria related information. Keep in mind, the server is not specific to Cross of Auria, so if you join be sure to pick the "Chad" or "Hybrid" role to see the Cross of Auria section of the server. Any reader of this post is welcome to join
