Discontinued Items
The following item will not be supported anymore. As announced before it should have been used before the Release of 205, otherwise it is going to be empty.

Jumong's Treasure

Workbench tabs

To increase the usability of the workbench we introduced different category tabs:

Tab	Description
All recipes	Shows all recipes and categories.
Equipment crafting	Shows all equipment related recipes.
Others	Shows all recipes for event related items, pets, mounts, costumes and emotes (There are currently no costume and emote recipes).

Group UI​

In regard to the upcoming Class Rebalancing related Group changes, we already implemented some minor UI improvements.

The resource bar is now being displayed again in the group information.​

The color of this bar will indicate the class of the character:
Ranger = Green; Spellweaver = Blue; Dragonknight = Orange; Steam Mechanicus = Grey​

Enlarged Foxariffic Burrow of Investigation

The Foxarrific Burrow of Investigation's HQ (FBI) has been enlarged a bit to host some more fighting space and monsters. It is now about the same size as other dungeon maps; this adjusts a balancing issue with the scaling version of this map.​

This will also help completing the quests in this map (normal difficulty) without frustration by having to return several times to find the required quest items (see quests "Arachna's Bandits", "A Foul Mission" and "The Last Shirt").​

Dragan Event changes and bug fixes

Challenge "Curse of the Black Knights - Nightmare on Birch Street"

We've reworked the Nightmare on Birch Street Challenge.
To complete the challenge map you need to defeat all Fire Brutes which try to reach and burn down the refuge in the middle of the map. ​

Each Fire Brutes will become active after you defeated all Fire Sprites in the same area. Fire Sprites are marked with a red marker on the map which will appear when you are close enough to it.

Bug fixes and improvements

Boss fights
There was an issue that Sharr Kharab used his melee attack without being near enough to the target what made it nearly impossible for him to hit enemies with his smash attack.

This issue has been fixed now and he is moving closer to the target before he is using his melee attack.

There was a visual issue In the fight against Balor. In rare cases, it was being displayed that the player does not consume any resources for skills after destroying the crystal to call Balor.

There was an issue that made it nearly impossible to kill the Face of M’Edusa during the Parallel World M'Edusa boss fight. This has been fixed now.

Crafting
There was an issue with the Augment core crafting of the warrior 1-hand weapon “Kranparus’ Icy Battle Mace”. The item was not eligible for crafting with any type of 1-hand weapon. This has been fixed now.

Daily Deals
There was an issue that two exact same items were being displayed with different Andermant values. This has been fixed now.

Game performance
There was an issue with low performance while picking up items. This has been improved now.

Guild invitation
There was an issue that guild invitations that were sent while a player is offline were not being received once the player logged in again. This has been fixed now.

Home teleport
There was an issue that players were able to use the home teleport while being dead. Because this issue may cause other issues it has been fixed now.

Parallel Worlds
There was an issue that Dragonknights were able to obtain uniques of another class when defeating Parallel World Bosses on excruciating difficulty.

PvP
There was an issue that allowed players to increase their health points by switching the equipment before the start of a PvP match. This has been fixed now.

White Rabbit costume
There was an issue that the wrong item name was shown for the White Rabbit costume inside the Collector's Bag. This has been fixed now.
The White Rabbit costume was showing a wrong buff icon. This has been fixed now.

Quests
The reward Item from the Quest "The Goddess of the Hunt 3/3" was following the old item framework. This has been fixed now.

Set bonus
There was an issue with the Temple Guardian set. Sometimes the guardian was not spawning correctly whenever the player’s health points were lower than 33%. This has been fixed now.

Scaling dungeons
There was an issue with the display of the level of reward items when choosing boss dungeons on normal mode. This has been fixed now.

Status effects
There was an issue with disappearing buffs (e.g. increased drop of Materi Fragments) and effects (e.g. costumes and/or pets) after changing a map. This has been fixed now.

Tooltips
There was a display issue that the Dark Corruption set was displayed with wrong damage values. However, this issue was appearing in Hungarian language only. This has been fixed now.

Enemy Fire Explosion
There are some enemies in the game that are casting fire explosion as a skill or when they die. We've fixed the issue now that you got hit by the explosion, even if you're not standing inside of the graphical effect of the explosion.
