+ | * Change: The first month 2 silver premium option has been removed. New first-time packages will appear in the shop soon instead. | ||
+ | ** Since its inception the 2 silver introductory offer has not served the purpose it was originally designed to do, allow new players to fund their first premium time within the game. After reviewing the information regarding first time purchasers and alts, we have decided to remove this option. | ||
+ | ** In the coming days we will be adding new first time packages of premium, 2 months for €7.99 or 2 months and 5 silver for €11.99 as replacement introductory offers. | ||
+ | ** With this we will be also beginning to phase out the existing referral system, with ingame purchases as well as the new introductory offers via the shop no longer giving a referral. | ||
+ | ** Ingame first time premium purchases will also no longer give 2 silver cashback, and instead will be available for 8 silver. | ||
+ | * New: Shield racks and Saddle racks have been added. | ||
+ | ** A saddle rack will hold empty saddles, bardings, and bridles. | ||
+ | ** Shield rack will hold any shield. | ||
+ | ** Both of these will only hold 15 items. | ||
+ | ** Both items will show woodtype. | ||
+ | ** You can load 3 racks into a large cart and 12 into a wagon. | ||
+ | * New: Level 100 Archaeology title added | ||
+ | * New: A guaranteed creation result (no fail) has been assigned to low difficulty mass production bulk items. | ||
+ | ** For mass production bulk items below a certain difficulty, the item will be created even on failure, and will never be created with a QL lower than either 20 or the player’s skill, whichever is lower. Material QL cap still applies. | ||
+ | ** This only applies for simple item creation, not complex (multi-part) item creation. | ||
+ | ** This pertains to non improvable bulk items. | ||
+ | ** Examples of items include: | ||
+ | *** Plank | ||
+ | *** Shaft | ||
+ | *** Rivets | ||
+ | *** Stone brick | ||
+ | *** String of cloth | ||
+ | *** Large nails | ||
+ | *** Small nails | ||

+ | ** '''General Rite Spell Changes''' | ||
+ | *** To encourage long-term diligence instead of “grinding” them and to encourage all followers to pray from time to time instead of relying on mass-praying priests, only prayers and sermons that could cause valid Faith gains increase deity favour, which is used to charge Rite spells. | ||
+ | *** Your god will still retain favor if you have 30 Faith as a follower or 100 as a priest; the prayer or sermon needs to be valid and check for Faith gain, but Faith gain itself is not necessary. | ||

+ | ** It will appear in the menu whenever it would have appeared in either place before. | ||
+ | ** It will automatically select the “drop & place” action when possible (i.e. when the player could pick up the item and drop it), and otherwise, it should use the slower action that moves the item across the ground in increments. | ||
+ | * Change: Uncaring for a creature via right-click option now has a pop-up question asking if you’re sure you want to do it. | ||
+ | * Change: Certain month based calculations are now defined as 30 days instead of 28 | ||
+ | ** A month in upkeep is a 30 day duration. | ||
+ | ** Upkeep email will be sent at the 30 day mark (was previously sent at 28 days hence some confusion). | ||
+ | ** Characters that have never been premium will be deleted after 3 months (90 days) absence instead of 84 days | ||
+ | * Change: Trader changes including placement on deed only. See list below. | ||

+ | * Change: Large planter box farming adjusted to be more in line with tile based farming. | ||
+ | ** Rake quality, rarity, player skill, as well as just general tending of the crop will both increase yield and quality of the growing crop, matching that of tile based farming. | ||
+ | ** Harvest quality will now match that of tile farming. | ||

+ | *** Some other minor grammar corrections to individual descriptions | ||
+ | *** Factual errors/Outdated info: | ||
+ | *** Corrected Excel description to properly state it’s a defensive CR bonus, not a parrying bonus | ||
+ | *** Corrected healing resistance description to say it applies to magical healing, not just the Heal spell | ||
+ | *** Corrected PoP Stamina of the Vibrant Light description; it’s not 50% of anything | ||
+ | *** Corrected PoK death protection description, as it does protect fighting-related skills, just not Fighting | ||
+ | *** Clarifications: | ||
+ | *** Clarified PoL healing (previous description made it sound like your natural regen is 1.5 times as fast, which is wrong or at least very misleading) | ||
+ | *** Clarified Goat Shape affecting climbing ability, not the skill itself (this is also in line with the spell description itself) | ||
+ | *** Clarified confusing phrasing on stamina ring effect description | ||
+ | *** Added “for new players” to all newbie buffs, previously only on one of them, for more clarity to newbies | ||
+ | *** Added specific numbers for sorcery damage reduction buffs, since the damage increase debuffs had them and this info is already public. | ||
+ | ** Misc.: | ||
+ | *** Several god-related effect names and descriptions were somehow swapped. For instance, Spirit Fervor was instead named “Deity combat rating bonus” with “Spirit Fervor” as the description. This has been rectified. | ||

+ | ** The following items will still go into bulk bins: | ||
+ | *** Flour | ||
+ | *** Dough | ||
+ | *** Filleted fish/meat | ||
+ | *** Diced meat | ||
+ | *** Chopped vegetables | ||
+ | *** Ground herbs and spices | ||
+ | * Bugfix: Referrals should now properly grant 1500 marks upon redemption. | ||
+ | * Bugfix: Another fix to resolve instant decay of anchors when raised. | ||
+ | * Bugfix: Fixed a few issues with recipes and ingredients as stated below. | ||
+ | * Prevent more salty and non-salty liquid foods from mixing. | ||
+ | * Corrected Lore option mistaking white sauce for mayonnaise | ||
+ | * Show more information for simpler items in recipes e.g. “fish fillet <snook>”. | ||
+ | * Bugfix: You can no longer take a portion of honey or use the place keybind on liquids. | ||
+ | * Bugfix: Fixed some combat issues resulting in the priority issues change. | ||
+ | * PvP Change: Elevation is now a Premium Only server. | ||

+ | * Bugfix: Added the third person keybinds (CHANGE_VIEW, ZOOM_OUT, ZOOM_IN) to the keybind settings | ||
+ | * Bugfix: Adjusted the quality of water reflections | ||

- Bugfix: A number of tooltips have been fixed for grammar, spelling, clarity and factual information. See notes below:
- Grammar fixes:
- Added ending punctuation for effect descriptions that were missing them, for consistency
- In-game stats that need to be recognized as such now have initial caps, e.g. “Fighting” skill and “Combat Rating”
- Some other minor grammar corrections to individual descriptions
- Factual errors/Outdated info:
- Corrected Excel description to properly state it’s a defensive CR bonus, not a parrying bonus
- Corrected healing resistance description to say it applies to magical healing, not just the Heal spell
- Corrected PoP Stamina of the Vibrant Light description; it’s not 50% of anything
- Corrected PoK death protection description, as it does protect fighting-related skills, just not Fighting
- Clarifications:
- Clarified PoL healing (previous description made it sound like your natural regen is 1.5 times as fast, which is wrong or at least very misleading)
- Clarified Goat Shape affecting climbing ability, not the skill itself (this is also in line with the spell description itself)
- Clarified confusing phrasing on stamina ring effect description
- Added “for new players” to all newbie buffs, previously only on one of them, for more clarity to newbies
- Added specific numbers for sorcery damage reduction buffs, since the damage increase debuffs had them and this info is already public.
