Changes
Destiny Board Changes
- The Reaver line bonus has been reworked to prevent unintended interactions with spells and other effects
- Bonus defense/damage vs mobs should now work as intended for higher-tier enemies
- Armor and magic resistance reduction effects are now more effective against higher-tier enemies
- Aside from these interactions, there should be no noticeable difference when fighting mobs
- Bonus defense/damage vs mobs should now work as intended for higher-tier enemies
With the introduction of the Gold Market Stabilization system, Common Chests that typically dropped a single Bag of Silver could sometimes be empty. To prevent this without altering the stabilization system, we have moved Silver from Common Chests to higher-value chests, and replaced them with Tomes of Insight to ensure a guaranteed reward.
- Common Chests now drop Beginner’s Tomes of Insight instead of Bags of Silver
- Uncommon, Rare, and Legendary Chests now contain more Bags of Silver
- To standardize Cast Time and Cooldown Rate modification values, they now always display a positive value to indicate longer durations and a negative value to indicate reductions
- The item stat 'Cast Time Reduction' has been renamed to 'Cast Time' to align with this system
- The item stat 'Cast Time Reduction' has been renamed to 'Cast Time' to align with this system
- Reduced chat frequency for /HCE, /LFG, /TR, and /REC by increasing message cooldown from 30 seconds to 2 minutes
