| Changed | Hotfix #31 | We want to wish everyone a happy Lunar New Years! We’ve worked hard to make some critical improvements so everyone can enjoy the holidays. We have implemented several fixes which improve server performance and should reduce the amount of rubber banding. We have concluded our experiment with the map rotation and now ALL maps will be available for ALL party types. We understand that matches may be less full than usual for the time being, but we decided that it was better to build and learn based on our expected specs rather than force a band-aid solution. We have also made balance changes to the Barbarian class with our hope of increasing the skill ceiling and to allow for more risk vs. reward playstyle. We’ve also slightly upgraded the Wizard to improve their early game experience and assist them in solo play as a starting point. Finally, this update includes our first pass at the Marketplace feature that allows users to sell items to other players through an automated process. We have focused on function over comfort at this stage, but we plan to improve it and make it more convenient in future iterations. The original Trading Post system will remain intact to accommodate direct trades between users, especially for more valuable items. We want to thank everyone for their patience as we worked to fix these pressing issues. | Feb 8, 2024 |
| Added | Hotfix #22 | This hotfix also includes balance update including improvements to the Barbarian and Warlock classes. We have also added a few more quest lines including quests for the Alchemist and Surgeon. | Nov 30, 2023 |
