Gamechanger: RELICS
Upon logging in... 1. You'll find a **Relic** equipped based on your class. Relics allow you to switch classes and level all disciplines (Spiritualism, Savagery, etc.) 2. Combat skills have been** reworked** and set accordingly, and individual weapon skills (sword, spear, etc) have been combined: - Melee - Magic - Ranged - Light Armor - Medium Armor - Heavy Armor 3. Disciplines have been** re-organized** and now display in your skills list: - Arcana - Elementalism - Savagery - etc. 4. Spells are now associated with your relic and are darkened on the hotbar until they are usable - you will automatically be able to use new spells when you reach the required level (i.e. 20 Arcana) 5. You can now switch classes by switching the relic that you have equipped! These can be obtained with...
Primordium Primordium is a scarce new currency in Irumesa, found on Primordial Spirits, from Quests, rarely from Gathering, and more! This resource can be exchanged for relics and other items at **Archmage Caelomir** at the Cobalt Tower.
XP Globes XP Globes will now appear when gaining XP in any skill! We've also added a settings section to control the quantity of orbs that are visible, ranging from 0-5. Let us know if you like them or have any thoughts how they could be improved!
Miscellaneous - Info Bars (above player/monster heads) now cycle between the following colors based on Hostile, Friendly, or Neutral states: Green (Friendly, Targeted) Yellow (Neutral) Red (Hostile, In Combat) - Tooltips have been updated with "Heavy Armor" "Medium Armor" or "Ranged Weapon" "Melee Weapon" to better indicate which skill will be trained when using them - Spells cannot be cast unless you are using the correct class, spell Tooltips have been updated to reflect this - Monster Hit Sounds now have a CD so they do not occur too frequently - Melee weapons have had their hit range increased as far as possible (roughly a 20% increase in distance from before) - "Critters" should now be hidden on the minimap (Rabbits, Snakes, etc.) - if you see any other monsters that you think should be hidden, let us know! We will add a toggle option for this soon - Paths will no longer immediately track when receiving them. Players can opt-in to tracking them after visiting the Paths tab in their Quest Log - Armor Skill XP will be gained when taking damage while using a particular set of armor - using a shield will add additional resisted damage to the calculation and help progress these skills faster! - Duskbow, Paladin, and Illusionist have been added to the character creation flow - we are still fine-tuning the Paladin ability FX and will do dedicated showcases on these classes when they are fully complete - Chat messages should no longer be intercepted by NPC conversations. This may cause unintended errors, so let us know if anything is working incorrectly after this change! - Completing the quests on Solitary Isles will reward discipline XP - T5 Alchemy Task Description should be fixed - T7 Woodworking Task should now correctly register T7 bows as they are collected - New Area/Spatial Audio Added to increase immersion throughout Irumesa! - Solitary Isles dialogue improvements - Fog has been fixed! - Tutorial Island area design improved to make it more clear where the crafting table is located - More bug fixes & tweaks to reduce lag / stuttering - More bug fixes to improve free movement interaction with different tile heights / terrain - This should fix a lot of stuck issues. If you see any more, please report them asap! Thanks for all of your support as we continue to build the world of Ethyrial! It truly means a lot - see you in game! -Team OG
