[PvE] Equipment
Fracture was causing issues to how we track per-skill damage (which is currently used for the "big skill" tracker but will be used for other things later). Also as a side note, removing fracture ACTUALLY reduces network traffic between users and the server. As a quick technical lesson randomly in the patch notes:
Each hit in a attack sends a packet to the server and the server sends a packet back. This is why the server tends to stutter and lag a bunch during Halloween and April Fools events since we have 1000000 hits going off thanks to our CRACKED OUT skills. Fracture also sends its own additional packet of data to/from the server for each hit to deal a pitiful 5000 additional damage.
Therefore removing it basically has a bunch of positives and basically no negatives. (boooo, you lose out on 5000 dmg per hit) - Jorj
- [Fracture] engraving skill has been replaced by [Trickle Heal]: After a successful attack, restore 0.1332% of your max HP every 2 seconds for 30 seconds on a 30 second cooldown (effectively approximately 2% max HP heal over 30 seconds permanently)
Cash Shop
Road to 40k
New Cosmetics
Ardent Skip Package
Due to all the complain syndrome about not having a pay-to-go-faster option for old content, we've added the [Ardent Skip Package] for 300,000 QC that gives you almost everything you need to start running [Ice Dragon Nest].
Note that this doesn't give anything that you don't normally get by doing early game and midgame progression.
PVP Shops
- Invisible offhand mastery has been added to the shop. Participate in PvP Events to obtain!
- Roey's Favorite title added for previous event winners.
Bugfixes
- Fixed [Archbishop Nest] cutscene skip switch for parties bigger than 1
- Attempt #2 for fixing [Dragoon]'s [Vulnerability] proc physical debuff stacking multiple times
- Fixed a few more expiring cash costumes
- Fixed a few more untradable cash costumes
- Hopefully fixed an issue that caused crashes after class-changing and then applying a full skill build
- Fixed the [Alter Roy] [Warrior Hair Ampoule] hairs clipping through several headpieces (e.g. [Awakening Hero's Helmet])
Misc
- Preloading some EXP4 data
- Fixed a couple random text strings
- [Flawless Dragon Soul] is now tradable
- [Pet Alicorn] costs 1 QC
- Class [Main Stat] descriptions updated to be
STAT - DMG - ELEMENT(e.g.STR - PDMG - Firefor Dark Avenger) which should help newer players - [Valkyrie]'s [Afterimage] right click has been made optional. Take the [Forced Detonation] passive skill to be able to right click (like before)
