New content
Runic crafting
Equipment properties
Armour effectiveness
New- New strength-based body armour can roll a rare property granting 2–8% increased armour effectiveness. It improves incoming-hit mitigation without increasing displayed armour or armour-derived bonuses.
Skill tree
Armour
Armour effectiveness
New- Two existing empty armour clusters gain increased armour effectiveness: 2% per small passive and 5% per notable.
Evasion
Evasion stamina costs
New- A new branch grants a chance to evade without spending stamina: +4% on small nodes and +10% on Feather Step.
- A new branch reduces passive evasion stamina costs by 4% on small nodes and 10% on Measured Footwork.
Stamina
Deep Reserves
New- A new branch increases maximum stamina by 5% on small nodes and 12.5% on Deep Reserves.
Glancing blows
Slipping Guard
New- A new cluster combines evasion rating and glancing blows; Slipping Guard increases evasion rating and grants glancing blow chance for three seconds after an evasion.
Combat and equipment
Ranged combat
Effective range
Balance- Bows and crossbows deal full damage up to 12 m, 80% at 18 m, and 20% at 28 m and beyond; effective-range bonuses stretch the whole curve.
Minions
Base critical chance
Balance- All minions have a 5% base critical strike chance. Increased minion critical chance scales this base, allowing critical damage bonuses to work.
Defence
Passive evasion
Balance- The initial evasion chance is capped at 150%; each successful evasion multiplies the chance against all attackers by ×0.8.
- Evasion costs 4–18% of maximum stamina according to damage that would reach health after blocking, resistances, armour, endurance and rune shields: minimum at 30% of maximum health or less, maximum at twice maximum health.
- Evasion values from tree tiers, Dexterity scaling, newly rolled properties and new equipment bases are reduced by 25%; existing item values and bases remain unchanged.
Fixes
Compatibility
Balrond Shipyard
Fixed- Unpacking a ship restores installed upgrades without enabling absent upgrades for free; appearance choices and older packed-ship records remain supported.
Runic Chest with SeneaL UI
Fixed- Runic Chest currency slots and the working item remain visible and usable when SeneaL UI moves the container grid; the panel uses its public theme API.
Ship crate recovery
Fixed- An invalid Balrond Shipyard upgrade record no longer interrupts restoration of a packed ship’s cargo and health; the unread upgrade data is retained on the ship and when repacking it.
Interface
Sceptre crafting preview
Fixed- The crafting tooltip uses the current base damage table for a new sceptre, without changing existing items or the recipe template.
Ability cooldown help
Fixed- The cooldown in Stamina Debt links to ability cooldown help instead of the crossbow magazine reload article.
Boss modifier icons
Fixed- Boss modifier icons sit below the health bar and follow its layout and icon scale without overlapping it.
Unarmed and fists
Fixed- Unarmed and bare-hands terminology uses one Unarmed article, distinct from Fists, which includes both empty hands and fist weapons.
Keystone names
Fixed- Keystone titles use their stable node translation key, preventing a shared name translation from replacing their own title. Confirmed English translations are also used as source names in the planner.
Combat
Stormstaff volley cost
Fixed- Stormstaff consumes stamina and eitr once per volley, including additional projectiles from passive skills.
Projectile damage context
Fixed- Projectile hits retain their projectile damage modifiers when hit data is created at impact.
Spell hits and evasion
Fixed- Passive evasion applies to attack and spell hits; damage-over-time ticks do not trigger it.
Crafting
Staff upgrades
Fixed- Upgrading PoV staves at a workbench no longer requires an unattainable station level above 5.
Bonus food identity
Fixed- Bonus portions retain their item identity when spawned from a crafting template, so unbaked food can enter an oven and cooked food can be eaten.
Mead base bonuses
Fixed- Newly crafted mead bases receive the brewer’s potency and duration bonuses even when they do not stack; fermentation and cellar aging retain those bonuses.
Character progress
Boss victories
Fixed- A boss’s final death records the victory and its points on eligible characters, including kills from bleeding and repeat kills of a boss already defeated in that world.
Boss trophy credit
Fixed- Obtaining a boss trophy no longer grants a personal boss victory on the next login. Existing recorded personal victories remain unchanged.
Combat tree
Battle Medic and Shield Mark
Fixed- A ready Battle Medic heal takes priority over Shield Mark and can start its shield alternate attack without Shield Instead of Blade; a failed attack does not spend the heal.
Slam damage conversion
Fixed- Slams use blunt damage as their basis, including damage converted into blunt, and retain elemental damage converted from that basis; raw non-blunt, slashing and piercing damage are excluded in combat and previews.
Shooting effective range
Fixed- Effective-range modifiers scoped to shooting now apply to bows and crossbows.
Bow accuracy
Fixed- Bow-scoped shot accuracy now affects ordinary shots and additional-projectile spread.
Armour break against bosses
Fixed- Target-specific armour-break build-up, including against bosses, now reads the struck target’s traits.
Impale modifiers
Fixed- Impale modifiers now respect the attacking weapon and target conditions.
Immobilize build-up
Fixed- Immobilize build-up modifiers now affect its application chance.
World
Complete dungeon awakening
Fixed- The Great Rune of Awakening rebuilds all dungeon room content, including enemies, spawners, loot, gatherables and doors, using the saved room layout. Player possessions are preserved; everyone must leave the dungeon before renewal, and previously earned achievement rewards are not repeated.
Cooperative monolith victories
Fixed- Completing a monolith trial preserves its participant list, so joined players can record their own victory and drain the stone without repeating the fight.
Crafting tree
Runecarver mastery access
Fixed- Ore Hauler replaces its empty Runecarver mastery placeholder with Divine Touch, Ascendant Rune and Perfect Inscription; its existing bonuses and position are preserved.
Server configuration
Diagnostics
Automatic memory checks
Fixed- Automatic heap-growth warnings on dedicated servers no longer trigger forced garbage collection, full object scans or allocation profiling; detailed diagnostics remain available on explicit request.
Character progress
Achievement recipients
New- Bosses, dungeons, monoliths and runestones each have a recipient setting: the acting character, players within 50 metres, or everyone currently online (default). Only new events are shared; each character keeps its own records and joining later grants no past achievements.
Creature difficulty
Creature setting defaults
Fixed- The Creatures page has a section reset; selecting a difficulty preset also restores star health, damage and loot, modifier counts, chances and rewards to their preset defaults.
Evasion
Evasion cost settings
Changed- The minimum stamina cost and the two damage-to-health thresholds are configurable; the old boss-specific decay reset is replaced by the common evasion reset.
