💥 TRENDING: App//allnews - Complete Album!

• Fixed an issue where the title badges for Dhuum's Covenant and Reforged Mode were sometimes missing (or applied too early, before the first title rank was earned)
  
• Fixed a bug where getting drunk (in game!) caused an internal rendering buffer to clobber the visible graphics rendering buffer
  
• Fixed a long-standing bug where Wintersdays maps would s l o w down the longer they ran (this is why you might have seen a message that a district was unavailable)
  
• Fixed a bug where some players used a different random number generator than others, resulting in desyncs
  
• Fixed a bug where a player's territory wasn't always reported to the game server correctly
  
• Moved the location of inaccessible Charr Champions for the Vanguard Annihiliation: Charr quest when in Reforged mode
  
• Adjusted the max reverb delay when using OpenAL Soft to reduce the intensity of droning sounds in some areas
  
• Closed some previously open gates along The Great Northern Wall in the Northlands; fortunately, the Charr were not exploiting these

Hotfix #1

• Fixed a bug where players would sometimes get flagged with Dishonor when entering Ascalon Academy

• Fixed a Reforged mode bug where some henchmen would become stuck in later Prophecies areas

• Adjusted item spawn rarities in Reforged mode

• Fixed an issue where some henchmen would not appear in your party when returning to an outpost in Reforged mode

• Account preferences updated more often on the server

Hotfix #2

• Fixed a client crash when logging out from certain maps with high graphics settings enabled, such as Doomlore Shrine

• Activate Reforged Mode (Alpha) during character creation.
  
  • Your character will have a badge visible in-game.
  • Piken Square will be accessible as an outpost for Reforged Mode players in pre-Searing Ascalon - but you'll have to fight your way there.
  • Players gain 5% more experience and gold in the Prophecies campaign.
  • Enemies have lower health and armor in pre-Searing Ascalon.
  • Henchmen have been retuned and are more powerful with additional skills.
  • The Northlands in pre-Searing Ascalon has additional spawns.
• For multiplayer parties, all players have to be in Reforged Mode to experience Reforged Mode content and balance changes. Mixed parties will see the standard content.
• This is an alpha feature we are sharing early to gather feedback. It is only presented in English.

• Activate Dhuum's Covenant during character creation.
• Dhuum's Covenant is a challenging mode, available throughout the game, where you strive to avoid dying. Ever.
• Characters created with Dhuum's Covenant get a badge visible in-game.
• Upon your character's death, you lose the badge permanently (but can keep playing the character).
• Any titles you earn while under Dhuum's Covenant will have the badge in the Hero panel.
• If you lose Dhuum's Covenant, any future ranks earned for that title will not display the badge.
• This is a beta feature and may undergo changes. It is currently only presented in English. We'd love your feedback!

• This matches the maximum party size at the beginning of Factions and Nightfall.

• You can now choose which background scene is displayed during login and character selection!
• Choose your background in Options->General->Pregame Scene.
• Choose between Prophecies, Factions, Nightfall, and Eye of the North.
• The Prophecies scene was not designed to support 360 degree views therefore it has a fixed camera placement. There is some risk that the zoom level may cut off some of your view of your character in ultrawide screen resolutions.

• Fixed a delay where Steam DLC was not always available immediately after purchase.
• Fixed a bug where the mouse would move unexpectedly when you touched the screen on some devices like Steam Deck and Windows-enabled touchscreens.

• Fixed a server crash in the Bonus Mission Pack "Rise of the White Mantle" story.

• Fixed an issue where players whose account had only PVP content were not properly upgraded.
