Patch Notes - 2022 August 9
Posted: Wed Aug 10, 2022 4:06 am
Game Mechanics
- Knowing the Levitation spell now allows enchanters to place lighten enchants.
- Flaming Weapons and Unholy Weapons now have the option to disable them before the status runs out.
- Multiple castings of the Holy Champion's Divine Resolve will now stack the duration.
- Stronghold setting and revoking no longer has a minimum level requirement; strongholds have a minimum faction level requirement and this is adequate protection to keep this mechanic from being easily spammed.
- When Defiler Poison kills someone it now notifies the Defiler, who gets kill stats but no additional XP.
- When claiming Stygian Overlord status via non-usurpation means fails, the error messages are now more specific as to why.
- Fixed an issue where characters carrying superheavy items weren't hindered from carrying them through doors and portals.
- Fixed an issue where Liches betrayed by their Wraiths still received notifications and XP/stats of what the Wraiths were doing after said betrayal, as if the Wraiths still belonged to them.
- Freed Wraiths shouldn't get to go inside, hunting is hard enough as it is. That this was possible at all was a leftover of the old Breath 4 Death Cascade Wraith system, that was specifically designed to keep that one specific neighborhood dangerous - we don't need it now.
- Fixed an issue where Fists of Holy Resolve still wasn't letting Redeemed extend it.
- Holy Champions were getting charged MP for changing cloaks within a cloak tree and shouldn't have been, so now they won't.
- Solved an issue that was stopping Dark Oppressors eligible for Overlordship from claiming in a site. Usurpation was always working but nonviolent claims had stopped.
- Resolved an issue where characters in the process of skill or spell Buyback were not applying passive infusion, which explains many bug reports of passive infusion mysteriously not applying.
- Corrected an issue where Holy Champion changing between cloaks of the same parent cloak tree still checked for MP requirements.
- Heavy Lifting can now be disabled by anyone who has the status active, solving a bug where an Infernal Behemoth who lost Evil morality could be stuck with the status active indefinitely.
- Reforged Wraiths now keep the special combat abilities of regular Wraiths.
- Falling into the void now correctly checks if you should get a badge for it in some cases where it wasn't.
- Users who are returning to Breath 5 Nexus for the first time with accounts that played in prior breaths were still getting Search as an option for their character starting skills and now will not.
- Grisly Reaping wasn't working in Forgotten Cemeteries and should now.
