ear players,

Coins auto-collected into the enhanced gold pouch from corpses now register correctly in the hunt analyser and loot statistics. Counts reflect the actual coins moved, preventing under- or over-reporting in session totals.

Fixes

• Hunt analyser now tracks gold picked up by the enhanced gold pouch from corpses accurately.
• Loot statistics use the actual collected coin amount instead of the pouch item count.
• Loot tracking updates reliably when coins are auto-transferred from corpses into the pouch.

Kind regards,
Retronia

Scarab coin gates inside Ankrahmun tombs have been improved. The gates now count Scarab Coins across multiple stacks on the floor, track daily entries separately for each tomb, and show a clearer message after your first entry of the day.

Ankrahmun Tombs – Scarab Coin Gates

• Gates now count all Scarab Coins placed on the required tile, even if they are split into multiple stacks.
• Each tomb now tracks your daily entry cost separately.
• Your first entry of the day into each tomb costs your level divided by 10, rounded down, with a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 100 Scarab Coins.
• Subsequent entries into the same tomb on the same day cost the first-entry price divided by 10, rounded up.
• Example: a level 299 character pays 29 Scarab Coins for the first entry. After that, further entries into that same tomb during the same day cost 3 Scarab Coins.
•  A message is now shown after your first entry, informing the reduced cost for later entries.

Kind regards,
Retronia

ear players,

Ankrahmun’s scarab coin passages now can scale their coin cost by level. A new Enhanced Gold Pouch streamlines coin collection and works with Gold Converters, channeling scrolls show clean on‑screen countdowns and Cast spectator spell messages route correctly.

Ankrahmun scarab coin passages

• All scarab coin passages in Ankrahmun (Dipthrah, Mahrdis, Morguthis, Omruc, Rahemos, Temple, Thalas, and Vashresamun) now share unified behavior.
• The number of Scarab Coins required adjusts to your level.

Items and Store

• New: Enhanced Gold Pouch — a high‑utility, coin‑only pouch that automatically collects coins you take or loot from creature corpses directly into the pouch.
• If you carry Gold Converters, the pouch will automatically spend charges to convert full stacks (e.g., 100 gold → 1 platinum), reducing stack clutter.
• The Enhanced Gold Pouch is soulbound on purchase and is supported by the Soulbound Refunder. Multiple pouches are supported. A small visual effect plays whenever coins are pulled into the pouch.
• Enhanced Gold Pouch can be obtained from the Store, or you can also upgrade your current Gold Pouch with gold coins from the NPC Alexander in Edron.
• House offers: eligible house‑related multi‑count offers now include a bulk x5 option with an approximate 25% discount, with prices rounded to tidy values.

Channeling and countdown visibility

• Hometown TP Scroll, House TP Scroll, and Mailbox Scroll now show a floating second counter above your character instead of repeating chat messages, making timers easier to read and reducing chat spam.
• Starting the mailbox summon now posts a single “Summoning Express Mailbox...” message at the start.

Casting and chat

• Spell words typed in local tabs that support it (such as Spectators while using Cast) are now correctly recognized and routed as spell messages instead of regular chat.

Kind regards,
Retronia

ear players,

The Store now features a weekly rotating selection of outfits with a promoted discount you can reroll, 19+ new outfits were added, Numpad Enter works like Enter across the client, and you can no longer equip more than one quiver at once.

Store & Outfits

• Weekly Outfit Rotation: The Outfits category now highlights a weekly rotation of offers. One outfit is marked as promoted with a discount, and the Store shows a live countdown for when the selection refreshes.
• Reroll the promoted pick: A new reroll action lets you reshuffle the promoted outfit for the current week. The promotion discount starts higher and may step down with each reroll, but won’t go below a small minimum. Rerolls reset with the weekly rotation.
• Promo bundle support: When an outfit is promoted, you can purchase a discounted bundle that covers the base outfit and enabled addons in one go. If you already own parts, you pay only for what’s missing.
• New outfits available: 19 outfits were added, including Owl Keeper, Citizen of the Dunes, Void Master, Lion of War, Champion, Conjurer, Chaos Acolyte, Death Herald, Spirit Caller, Winter Warden, Philosopher, Grove Keeper, Festive, Pharaoh, Siege Master, Mercenary, Sinister Archer, Dream Warrior, and Percht Raider.

Controls & UI

• Numpad Enter equals Enter: Pressing Numpad Enter now behaves exactly like Enter throughout the client. This includes confirming dialogs, submitting text fields (such as search inputs), and adding new lines in multi‑line text boxes.

Equipment

• Quiver rule: You can no longer equip more than one quiver at the same time across your hands and ammo slots. If you already have a quiver equipped, equipping another will be blocked.

Kind regards,

The Gatekeeper now supports a permanent Rookstayer path, a promotion route to Rookwarden, and Rookwardens can learn and cast the Light (utevo lux) spell.

Rookstayer path at The Gatekeeper NPC

• You can now commit to Rookgaard as a Rookstayer via The Gatekeeper.

• Rookstayers can promote to Rookwarden through The Gatekeeper.
• Promotion checks include a minimum level, a fee, and may require premium status.

• Rookwardens can now learn and cast Light (utevo lux).

Getting started

• Talk to The Gatekeeper to choose your path or to check your eligibility for promotion.
• Review the requirements in-game and confirm carefully—these choices are irreversible.

Kind regards,

For the next server save, we have implemented the following fixes:

Movement and chasing

• Recent follow/chase enhancement changes on the client and server have been reverted, returning the movement system to its previous behavior to stabilize the walk and eliminate post-staircase stuttering while the enhancement is reevaluated.

Login and protocol

• Fixed a login issue where some characters on the same account could fail to log in due to a device verification error; the client/server fingerprint system has been adjusted to work correctly regardless of the character name.

Kind regards,
Retronia

ear players,

Start and watch live Casts with a new Spectators channel, see clearer connection health in the UI, face the Gelidras raid, and enjoy several balance and reward improvements.

New: Cast and Spectators

• New Cast window on the side panel: start a Cast with a title and optional password so others can watch your gameplay.
• Browse and watch available Casts from within the client. If a Cast is password-protected, you’ll be prompted before joining.
• A dedicated Spectators chat channel opens while you are casting or watching, so viewers and the caster can talk without cluttering other channels.

Connection Health UI

• Ping now shows a clear state: Stable (green), Unstable (yellow), or Packet Loss (red), based on latency and heartbeat loss.
• The ping display also shows your current ms value and updates more reliably across different connection setups.

New Raid: Gelidras

• A new world raid featuring Gelidras has been added. Stay alert for announcements and be ready to engage when it appears.

Lag-Death Protection Rules

• Lag-Death protection no longer applies to PvP situations. It only considers eligible PvE deaths (e.g., caused by monsters), tightening the system to prevent abuse.

Visual Polish

• The outfit selection window has been improved, enhancing not only the visual aspect but also correcting some inconsistencies in its use.

Kind regards,
Retronia

Exercise Weapons

Training Weapons for Melee, Distance, Wand and Shield have arrived in the Store!
Store training weapons (Exercise, Durable and Lasting) mainly differ by their number of charges (500, 1800 and 14400).

Each charge grants a fixed amount of training progress:

• For melee weapons (sword/axe/club), each charge equals 7.2 hits
• For spears, each charge equals 2.16 blood hits or 4.32 miss hits
• For wand/rod, each charge equals 100 mana spent
• For shield, each charge equals 14.4 blocks

To use it, equip the weapon and activate it on an Exercise Dummy (melee at 1 sqm, distance/wand up to 4 sqm, and shield by blocking hits from creatures). The character will not log out due to AFK during training. Training stops if you perform a normal attack, switch targets, unequip the weapon, move out of range, or run out of charges. Each store offer also displays the required vocation and skill level in the description.

Daily Rewards: Day 7 can grant a training weapon with 50 charges, for characters above level 20.

Golden Exercise Dummy Ticket

The new Golden Exercise Dummy Ticket is a premium version of the regular ticket. Its main difference is that it provides 10% more training efficiency compared to the normal ticket.

Dummy Skins

A new category called Dummy Skins has been added to the Store, allowing players to visually customize their training dummies. You can unlock skins such as Scout and Royal to use with the Exercise Dummy Ticket and the Golden Exercise Dummy Ticket.

To change your Dummy Skin after purchase, simply right-click your summoned dummy and select "Set Dummy Skin".

Creatures

• Maggot: XP 88 → 60.
• Slug: XP 80 → 60 and behavior adjustments.
• Menace Tortoise: XP 1130 → 120 | HP 2585 → 360 | plus an overall revision of strength and resistances for better balance.

Map and spawns: creature redistribution in affected areas, providing more hunting route variety and improved respawn flow.

These creature adjustments make hunts more balanced, fair, and enjoyable!

The adjusted Menace Tortoise spawn is now aimed at low/mid-level characters, so prepare for the hunt!

Item Charges and Duration Visualization

The new charge visualization in the client UI makes managing your consumables much clearer during gameplay. You can now easily see how many charges remain on items such as runes and training weapons, as well as track duration and usage cycles without needing to manually check the inventory.

In practice, this reduces mistakes, prevents resource waste, and helps with decision-making during hunts, training, and PvP, since you always know when an item is about to run out.

Food Time

The new Food indicator in the skills window makes it easier to track your character’s condition in real time, clearly showing whether your character is currently fed.
