[Patchnotes] 2.6 - Black Tides

Black Tide Cove

Update 2.6 opens Outlaw Camp, the new hub where crews gather to plan, resupply and size up the competition. Beyond it lies Black Tide Cove, an all new PvPvE battleground where four legendary bosses guard the last of the plunder. These aren't fights you'll win alone. You'll need your whole guild at your back and even then the spoils go to whoever's still standing. Muster your crew. Take the Cove. Claim your doubloons. The Cove is open. Are you ready?

All-new hub island
Gather your crew and your guild on Outlaw Camp, the new island! The island can be found in the northern part of Hoomanil Ocean. But beware, a creature is roaming around guarding the entrance to this new camp! Among other amenities, you'll find the new merchant Artemisia, who is offering her high value goods for Doubloons. 

Black Tide Cove
Jump into action and fight the four new bosses with your guild! But careful, these creatures are not to be scoffed at. They are dangers of which the likes this world hasn't seen before. Not only that, you will also have to defend yourself from other guilds trying to claim the loot for themselves! To help you in this new endeavour, here are some information:

  • 4 new bosses roam Black Tide Cove: Silk Fang, Vaelith, Davy Bones & Supreme Fleet Commander Welkey
  • All 4 bosses spawn on fixed times as follows (all times are in UTC+2):
    • Silk Fang/Vaelith: 2:00am, 8:00am, 14:00, 20:00
    • Davy Bones: 2:30am, 8:30am, 14:30, 20:30
    • Supreme Fleet Commander Welkey: 3:00am, 9:00am, 15:00, 21:00
  • Bosses remain in the world until they are defeated, however long that takes. If a fight runs past the next scheduled spawn, the next boss will not appear immediately. It spawns five minutes after the previous boss is defeated, giving everyone time to loot and clear the area before the next fight begins.
  • Beacons: Across Black Tide Cove, a variety of beacons can be found. Claim the beacons by destroying them and grant all of your nearby guild members a temporary buff to strengthen them and prepare them for the fight!
  • Doubloons: This new currency can be found exclusively as a drop from the 4 new bosses and exchanged at Artemisia in Outlaw Camp for high value goods

Personal shop changes

We have pushed various tweaks to personal shops, in a way to make them more intuitive to use while opening up new options to non-AP players.

  • Up to 6 extension slots for the personal shop can now be purchased in-game with Gelt, for a total of 10 slots
    • Prices per slot:
      • 4th slot ➜ 1.000.000 Gelt
      • 5th slot ➜ 1.450.000 Gelt
      • 6th slot ➜ 2.100.000 Gelt
      • 7th slot ➜ 5.500.000 Gelt
      • 8th slot ➜ 12.000.000 Gelt
      • 9th slot ➜ 24.500.000 Gelt
      • 10th slot ➜ 65.000.000 Gelt
  • Added a disclaimer/warning when using a cash slot extension that would go past the 18 slots limit
  • Added a disclaimer/warning when trying to purchase an item in the personal shop which would cause the seller's Gelt to exceed their limit
  • Personal shops now last indefinitely, meaning there is no more expiration date and therefore no need to purchase licences
  • The limit for Gelt per transaction has been raised to 10.000.000.000 (10 Billion) from previously 1.000.000.000 (1 Billion)
  • A new 5% tax has been introduced which affects all sales/purchases made through personal shops
    • The tax will only apply to items sold through personal shops
    • The tax is deducted from the seller, not the buyer. Here is a breakdown of how it works:
      • Whatever price the seller enters for the item, is the price the buyer will pay
      • The tax is then deducted from the price the buyer paid
      • The final value (original price - tax) is then credited to the seller
    • A tax breakdown is shown for each individual item to sellers upon hovering over their shop item
  • After an item has been purchased from the personal shop, the seller will receive an in-game mail with a summary of the transaction. This mail will contain the following information:
    • Buyer's name
    • Item(s) purchased
    • Price paid by buyer
    • Deducted tax
    • Final net income 

 

 

General changes

  • We have temporarily disabled riding pets on Black Tide Cove & Elite Dungeon 4 while we are working on fixes for exploits that negatively affect PvP combats. You will automatically be dismounted when teleporting to these maps as well.
  • Drop rate adjustments for Elite Dungeon 4:
    • Increased Abyss-grown Bark to 5% (was 3.33%)
    • Increased Antler of the Abyss to 5% (was 3.33%)
    • Increased Heart of the Abyss to 5% (was 3.33%)
    • Increased Umbral Soul Crystal to 4.5% (was 2.5%)
    • Decreased Azure Leaf to 3% (was 4%)
    • Decreased Twilight Brew to 3% (was 4%)
  • Added the ability to sell items at port NPCs
  • Added Terms of Service acceptance upon character selection
  • Increased friendlist limit from 100 to 200
  • Increased blocklist limit from 50 to 100
  • Added additional sea quests ranging from level 35 to 45

 

Launcher

The launcher was updated ahead of 2.6 to ensure smooth sailing. The following changes are now in effect:

  • Added a "Disable DXVK" button to force disable DXVK. This can be used in case the client refuses to launch due to DXVK issues
  • General optimisations for more efficient and faster downloading and file management

 

Fixes

  • "Thorn Trunk" now actually roots players, no longer allowing them to circumvent it through other methods
    • Please note that we are actively working on the well known desync issues. Due to that, instances may arise in which you can still move after being rooted but once the client synchronizes with the server, your character will be sent back to the original position. Such instances will only be client side, meaning other players will not see any movement during that time.
  • Fixed an issue whereby DXVK state would be shown incorrectly in game settings (shown as OFF while actually being turned on and vice-versa)
  • Fixed "Sudden Darkness" range being 500 instead of 600 for skill levels 5 to 9
  • Fixed an issue with "Spina Autem Douglas" attack animation
  • Fixed MP cost calculation not accounting for MP cost reduction effects and preventing spell casts
  • Fixed an issue that caused players to become immortal when being affected by a HP reduction debuff that had a higher value than their max. HP (eg. Elixir of Risky Precision)
  • Fixed "Blood Thirst" not dismounting or warping players if they were riding a pet
  • Fixed an issue whereby slow-walking would bypass movement speed reduction debuffs (the irony here is great)
  • Fixed an issue whereby players could retain the speed buff from riding pets through PvP / TvT interactions
  • Fixed an issue with Gelt values being incorrectly formatted with decimals in several places
  • Fixed shadows not being reset properly when changing characters
  • Fixed an issue that caused soft-locks after a disconnection while being in a loading screen
  • Fixed URLs in client opening in Internet Explorer instead of default browser
  • Fixed several instances where riding pets could be summoned even when being in a combat state
  • Fixed several issues with personal shop listings
  • Fixed several issues that caused wrong calculations for max. HP & MP
  • Fixed several desync issues related to incorrect movement speed calculations
  • Fixed several typos, cleaned up some libraries and further optimised client

 

Known issues

  • In-game mails are not delivered if the inbox has 99+ mails
  • DXVK may occasionally still show the wrong state in the in-game settings window. Turning it off (in-game or through the new launcher option) will actually turn it off, so this is purely a visual issue
  • DXVK is completely turned off on Steam for the time being
