5.5 patch notes

Spiders now added [see also spider canyon]

[also general better AI system all around - new ai brains and stratergies]

new map called "Wrath"

5.5 map will have adventure parcels

ek vendors and stalls available to craft and use!

fix to losing crafting resources if you close the window (stations can remember what you are working on)

new weapons and effects for scimitar and focus weapons and [and one handed hammer] recipies reenabled

scimitar looks like a sickle

high elf female added
centuar female added

movement "should feel better"

death loop and crpyts: on death corpse release option with 6 minute release timer. item decay on death. on death release you warp to nearby temple or statue. player has to fly back to the body as a crow. players can now freely fly around the world as a crow. you can still "tow truck" summon your body back as well - huge durability hit if you do.

possible rez and "death blow" to force a release / tow truck.

crows should not reveal the map as they fly around.

monster tree damage mod bug is fixed [was increasing not decreasing]
barb cooldown node also fixed [was increasing not decreasing]

chaos embers = rare version of etheral dust

metal sections used in shields: more defensive generic stats e.g. elemental/organic or physical

intermediate armor will require an intermediate crafting table [basic armor gone?] new intermediate armor. uses leather.

new intermediate tools [also intermediate crafting table]

dust requirement to most weapon and armor recipies

new potion: dust finder

necklace gem cuts are now available [heart, brillet]. different and some unique stats compared to rings

sound design: full pass done on druid and harvesting and harvest buffs and assassin abilities

fixes to missing sounds etc

re added destruction effects to buildings

runecaster FX fixes

CLASS:

assassin - backstab should correctly grant 2 pips from behind

knights - STAMINA knight is gone now the ENERGY knight [1000 energy. regens about the same rate as stamina. noble blood restores 350].

rangers now *always* regen energy, not just in ranged tray - can play as much in the melee tray as you want

crypts still to come [will replace switching vessels at temple]

no fix to wood-elves teleporting through walls yet

are vessels swappable as inventory objects? yes!

water wells added in 5.5 - water required for jewel crafting cuts

durability and decay on vessels is unknown at this point to still retain necromancy crafting loop vs keeping progression

crow can only see players and resources nodes within 10m of their bodies or the temple

e.g. if being camped you can see within a short distance and instead go to temple and tow truck your body back for durability hit instead

fae and double jump is not in 5.5

spiders = carnivores and supple hide [and "spider parts!"]

vendors will mainly placed in EKs

you cannot change class after equipping a vessel race

still to build a trade and social pop up widget like we have for group invites etc

EK admin rights still to come with allowing non owners to use EK crafting stations etc

water quality does not factor in to recipies that require item

plants/herb require variety of time still before they can be worked on

to do: fix long cooldowns resetting on log out (hopefully hunger reset too)

5.5 jewelry will have better stats than current examples do

[will need to nerf fashion statement rune from +2 amulet to probably +1 amulet and shares the same free slot as high elf gets]

5.5 is still at implemtation stage still in progress, no firm ETA

5.5 map is bigger than tyranny and preparing to break the world into different island zones [not doing that yet though]

stoneborn are "going fine" .... art question [soooon ish]
