We are making two major changes to improve the Trade Skill leveling experience:
The Forge, Outfitting Station, Workshop, and Arcane Repository now offer Azoth discounts for relevant recipes:
Tier 3 = 20% discount.
Tier 4 = 30% discount.
Tier 5 = 45% discount.
Certain recipes are now no longer gated behind tiers:
Crafting Stations
Most procedural weapon and armor recipes.
Arcane Repository - Stat potions (Health, Mana, Regeneration, and Focus) and elemental recipes.
Kitchen - Health and mana foods
Refining Stations
Tier 3 unlocks - Recipe level is less than or equal to 100 and not legendary.
Tier 4 unlocks - Recipe level is 150 and not legendary.
Tier 5 unlocks - Recipe level is 200 or legendary at any recipe level.
Stonecutting - All gemcutting is no longer gated, but gem fusions remain gated behind relevant tiers.
Players no longer need to be in a Faction to join a Company, but Companies must still declare a Faction. Non-Faction-affiliated members may not become the Governor or participate in Wars.
Players can now see the number of active lobbies for each Expedition, both on the Map tooltip and the Expedition Entrance screen.
We will implement the following changes to make shell Companies less effective at owning multiple territories:
Daily War Limit
Players will have a limit of 1 defensive War and 1 attacking War per world (resets daily at 5AM server time). These limits will apply to both even if you have two different characters in the same world.
War Roster Restrictions
Participating Companies will have a limited number of Mercenaries they can recruit.
Attacking Companies: Up to 25 mercenaries.
Defending Companies: Up to 10 mercenaries.
The remaining slots are reserved for their Company members.
Company Switching Cooldowns
When leaving a Company, players will start a 72 hour cooldown on fighting in a defensive War and earning Influence for any Company toward War declaration eligibility. The cooldown begins once a player leaves. Any Influence earned will still count towards the player’s Faction.
Server Transfer Cooldowns
We have increased the cooldown on all server transfers from 3 to 30 days.
Use the new Bile Bomb Heartrune to give yourself the gift of projectile vomit. On impact, it creates a diseased cloud that infects targets with lingering damage-over-time and reduced healing. The cloud also sticks to enemies on direct hits, infecting their allies if they get too close. This makes the Bile Bomb particularly potent in group fights and finishing off foes that are trying to heal. Complete the new mutated Starstone Barrows Expedition for a chance to get your own Bile Bomb Heartrune!
