Beta build 2026-07-22
Assassin rework, custom Battlegrounds and a long list of fixes
⚠️ This build runs on the beta environment. Everything below is under test and may still change before it reaches the live realm.

Server

  • Added the Assassin rework and its balance pass, together with its wiki pages. Assassin Cross has not been reworked yet.
  • Improved the Vitality Serum formula.
  • Phantom Performance: the puppet now disappears when the caster changes map.
  • Fixed the HIT bonus of Sonic Blow, which granted a flat amount instead of a percentage.
  • Fixed Marionette Control.
  • Fixed the potions brewed by Medical Research not being consumed when drunk the traditional way, by clicking them.
  • Shadow Spell now recasts using the newly copied skill.
  • Added the test command @plagiarism. It is available on the beta environment only, for Rogue and Stalker characters who have learned Plagiarism: it opens a menu of every copyable skill, grouped by the class it comes from, and copies the chosen one exactly as if it had been plagiarised in combat.
  • Improved the PvP logging of healing skills such as Sanctuary and Vitality Serum.
  • Improved the equipment properties display. This work is still in progress.

Client

  • Fixed the encoding of accents and special characters.
  • The experience bar can now be dragged, and hidden from the configurator.
  • Updated the skill trees of several classes, including Champion, Alchemist and Rogue.
  • Chat windows now support opacity, which makes them easier to read over the game world.
  • Migrated the Assassin skills and skill tree to English, matching the rework.

General improvements

  • The transmute window now shows the required quantity in the interface.
  • Plagiarism, Marionette Control, Tarot Card of Fate, Beacon of Light and Empower no longer require Shift + Click to be used.
  • Improved the party SP bar, both under each character and in the Party Members window.
  • Implemented a custom Battlegrounds system, which will be tested during the beta. It is built to be extended to other PvP modes such as WoE and arenas.
  • Homunculus Embryo items now display the Homunculus identifier they carry, which opens the door to features such as trading embryos in the future.
  • Adjustments to the Orc's Memory instance.

Control Panel

  • Fixed the column length of the character inventory and IP fields.

Security

  • Improved protection and reduced the number of false positives.
