| New Stuff: In this patch we bring you 5 NEW SOLO LOOPS! You can now snack on those tasty loops as you wait for groups to form or to farm that tasty Ember Essence sauce. Here’s what’s new on the menu:
We have added in the capability to inspect other players. Now you can right-click and inspect players to see their inventory and what juicy items they have that you might want to chase down. Don’t forget to ask them where to go hunting! If you prefer to keep your precious items secret and safe you can disable the ability for other players to be able to check out your gear. Players who’ve purchased the game can now add a note to their LFG/LFM flags. Looking for a quest objective to a specific spot in a dungeon? Make a note. Streaming Embers and want to let players in game know? Make a note. Corpse dragging just got a lot easier. You can now bind it to a key, AND if you’ve been given consent it’ll drag the nearest party member’s bag to your location. If your bag is nearby the process will drag your bag with priority. There is a 1 second cooldown for dragging bags. More good news on the soloing front, 1 chevron difficulty and 2 chevron difficulty mobs have had their innate avoidance reduced. There are several other tidbits that make soloing a bit smoother as well and you can check those out in the patch notes linked below. The beloved ‘stalker’ mobs have now been added to every overland zone. These risk/reward mobs are all 1 chevron difficulty (exception in Grizzled Peaks) and are a bit like mobile chests, if you kill one they may have some tasty loot for you. If you are near enough to them they may just start hunting you down. We are just heating up as we tackle the tasks on our list for the year. We have a bunch of really cool stuff being developed so stay tuned! You can find the patch notes HERE. Go check out Elloa’s trailer for this patch, too, and give it a like and subscribe. As we iterate from patch to patch, adjusting current content and adding new content, we are asking our community to keep the feedback coming and to please be patient with us as we make adjustments. Thank you all! |
