Changes

Changed Enchantment Text

We have changed the text of the “% increased weapon damage” enchantment to “% increased damage on this item” to be more consistent with the other “on this item” enchantments. Apart from this, the enchantment effect stays the same.

Bug Fixes

The planking phenomenon in Dracania is over

We have fixed the graphic glitch that was putting characters, NPCs and mounts lying on the floor. No more planking across the lands!P

layer invitations have been fixed

We have fixed a bug that was preventing players to invite to groups or guilds other players that had non-Latin characters in their names.

No more floating moonlight circles in Varholm

A floating moonlight circle was seen on the island of Varholm. It has been placed on the ground now, to make it match the universal laws of gravity. Thanks for reporting it on the test server!

Corrected the health-bar style for Death Knights in Ocean of Bones (PW)

There were a couple of Death Knights of the Inquisition in the Ocean of Bones map that were not showing their Guardian status We have corrected this issue and now it’s correctly displayed on their health bar.

Crafting recipe for Predator (Tier 3) is working

Before this release, you could not forge a Tier 3 Predator with three Tier 2 bows plus a Khalys’ Spirit Core in the workbench. We have solved this so now you can craft it!

Shinning Silver Essences are not usable on PvP official arenas anymore

We have fixed the issue that is allowing Shinning Silver Essences to be used in official PvP combats. [Update 12.09 - Not Fixed. This bug will be fixed with rel174]

Go forth and conquer, heroes of Dracania!​
