Game Updates - 2023 March 04

Post by BobGeneric »

Game Mechanics
  • Foo Lions will only turn into statues when a Holy Champion activates Aspect of the Ox if the HC has the Thrown Weapons skill, thus preventing loss of a valuable pet for a Holy Champion who can't actually use the statue.
  • Caustic Horns and Corrosive Horns have been buffed to be 9 and 11 damage, respectively.
  • Becoming a Stygian Overlordship now increases your vassal pool size by one skill level above your skills (Level/4 with just Pledge Vassals, Level/3 with Priesthood/Thrall, and Level/2 with Legion Master) instead of always being Level/2.
  • Possessed Thralls can be rejuvenated for 25 MP, but only the first two Thralls summoned can be rejuvenated this way.
  • Instead of seizing all of the Dark Power (DP) above 50, usurping a Stygian Overlord in combat now seizes the lesser of 25% of the target's DP total above 50 or 666 DP.
  • Dark Power decay is now 1/day above if the total is 50, 2/day if the total is above 100 and 5% per day if the total is above 200. Stygian Overlords experience decay of Dark Power holdings above 200, but if they are on their own home territory the rate of decay is halved vs non-Overlords.
  • Doomsights has been slightly buffed to be 7 ticks (10 for an Overlord on home territory).
  • This has been true for a while and wasn't announced properly at the time, but the auto-factions (Heavenly Host, Legions of the Abyss, Freedom Array) have ward permissions that allow allies to shelter in their holds.
  • Somewhere deep in the bowels of Cordillera, the first in a series of buttons patiently waits to be pressed.
  • Factioned Transcended were changed as follows (feral Transcended were unchanged, aside from the added respawn effects):
    • Respawning now considers your faction's home plane for respawning instead of Purgatorio.
    • ADDENDUM 3/6/2023 - Transcendeds that spawn in Elysium/Stygia based on factional alignment will receive 25 ticks of Planar Protection upon respawn.
    • This includes Transcension respawn. Now guarantees respawning on your faction's home plane. For Good factions this means Elysium, Evil goes to Stygia and Unaligned to Purgatorio.
    • Transcension respawns now have a chance to roll for a handful of timed effects as opposed to just tick-based ones.
    • The stipulation of "Transcended can only ever infuse to Moral Freedom in Purgatorio" has been removed - Transcended infuse to the same alignment in Purgatorio as everywhere else now.
Quality of Life
  • Some (most) portals now have bespoke icons instead of every portal icon being identical.
  • Weightless, indestructible Memories of a Past Life have recently been distributed to characters who ended the last breath with renamed non-clothing, non-spell items in their inventory. If the item was in your footlocker at the time, it has been moved to your inventory.
Major Bugs
  • Fixed an issue that was keeping NPCs from retaliating when attacked. (viewtopic.php?f=10&t=4892)
  • Fixed a couple display issues with the Field Supplies active skill which prevented self-use.
  • Infusion-on-death with Blessing of the Martyr was infusing to an invalid alignment, thereby defusing good when it's supposed to infuse good.
  • If you have created Fonts with the Cultivate Ground skill and you later lose that skill (by buying it back, for example), you will still see the Pet Pane and your own Font info instead of losing access to that information.
