Patch Notes Servers Down Thursday, May 13th for Small Build

Sarah Otter · May 13, 2021

Hi, Everyone,

We will be bringing the servers down sometime within the next three hours to push a small improvement build to live. As always, we can't give an exact time, but we will provide a 15 minute advance warning in-game just prior. Server will only be down shortly.

Patch 4.60.1

Improvements

Made some improvements to the Empowered Ladder bosses.
- Some adjustments have been made to Empowered Anosia's effect, "Ring of Fire":
- Damage has been very slightly reduced.
- The movement speed of the fire has been reduced.
- The color of the particles has been changed to be more noticeable.
- The delay between the AoE zodiac appearing and damage being dealt has been increased from to 4 seconds (was 2 seconds).
- *The warning zodiac size has been increased the better reflect the actual size of the fire.
- Nature's Veil will no longer dispel upon taking damage. It will only dispel upon being aggroed.
- Modified Empowered Prisma to use less AoEs and instead use more of the dynamic AoEs (Ring of Fire, Tidal Swell, etc).
- Added an AoE ring for Ring of Fire feat so that it is easier to see the edge.

Bug Fixes

Fixed issue that caused the last digit of the number of items crafted dialog to be cutoff.
Added invisible walls to the all the ladder arenas to prevent people from glitching out of them.
Fixed issue with the tooltip of the talent, "Complete Control" so that it correctly states the affected stat is "Clarity", and not "Expertise".
The tooltip for the talent, "Zephrys Enclave" now correctly states that the increase is to Expertise, and not Clarity.
Reduced the cooldown of Tempest of the Roc.
Fixed issue that caused honed stats to appear as "0" all the time.
Fixed issue that caused achievements to be out of order in the "Combat" tab.
Fixed "Frigid Reality" tooltip.

Mobile Only

Hopefully fixed issue that caused party leader on mobile to be unable to kick or offer party leadership.

They haven't been entirely removed, no. However, they have been re-positioned so it should be much easier to see now.

Hoping to see catapults included in the empowered levels. Well maybe one day

lol..

Oh ok thank you!

I tried to log in but this appears. This is after the update. Don't know if it is the same for others. I'll try after another hour.

I think the servers are still down. The Devs usually post when the servers are back up.

Loving the newly improved mechanics of the empowered ladder!

Petition to add a few permanent ladders to the game using Rift bosses and other Elder bosses!

PlatinumPlatypus · May 13, 2021

I love the new Empowered Ladder! Awesome job Sean! The mechanics could use a few tweaks, but it's a lot more interesting and fun!

Meagan · May 13, 2021

I am not sure if it was mentioned before, but the new mechanics of the Empowered Ladder are awesome!

Thank you very much, stellar job!

Hopefully ALL trees are removed. It’s very annoying

Zaphyra · May 13, 2021

I love the new Empowered Ladder... so much fun, tyvm!!!

Please consider changing Venesia's health (or resistance, whichever it is that makes her take so long) to be in line with the other ladder bosses. It's a very tedious fight. With the new improved mechanics there is really no need for a damage sponge boss like this.

One thing on the venom boss in empowered ladder, is I would suggest removing the white lights flashing like strobes, since it could cause seizures with people with medical conditions. Other then that it’s a fun ladder!

I think those can be adjusted in the settings, I might be wrong but most other things can be adjusted.

I'm really loving the new mechanics for the Empowered Ladder, by contrast the regular Ladder is even more boring.

I'd love to see the mechanics of the Empowered Ladder added to the regular Ladder, while maintaining lower damage. So we'd have to run around to avoid attacks and kill adds, but they wouldn't deal as much damage. I think this would make the regular Ladder more fun/interesting, while still allowing most players to survive. It would also help players practice for the Empowered Ladder.
