General
- Crystallized Regrets
- Earned from Serpentis Dungeon
- Use them to evolve into other abyssal shards / abyssal crystals
- Use those to upgrade Serpentis weapons
- People saved them to use on Obsidian armor
- Ended up that the older version of the Crystallized Regrets became "somewhat unusable"
- This did not meet player expectations
- Trion took player feedback and had a discussion with XL about it
- XL agreed this was not an "optimal experience"
- Trying to keep the new drops as they are while fixing the old version
- Current drops from Serpentis are going to stay the way they are
- They've noted feedback that drops are low and are watching
- Old drops are going to change in 1.7B (they know, it's a ways off)
- If you deleted them or vendored them because they became unusable
- Trion is going to look to get them back to you when 1.7B ships
- Achievement System
- A lot of achievements didn't retroactively auto complete
- Some simple, basic ones
- And some that generally only happen once
- This is Trion's top priority right now
- They are looking into ways to get more of the ones players have completed to them
- Achievements is a complex system so they missed some
- Exploration has some similar problems they are looking into
- Feedback helps with this so they know where to look for fixes
- Patch Notes
- Lots of ninja patch notes in 1.7A
- Missing notes
- XL Games creates the game and gives Trion the patch notes
- Patch notes are in Korean
- If translated wrong or read wrong then a mistake can be made
- Lots of places small mistakes can happen
- NA/EU is 9 months behind KR
- Sometimes changes are made and missed by XL
- Lots of additional patch notes were added during PTS testing
- Thanks to feedback
- Halycona
- Changes mostly because there are lots of new events.
- Mistmerrow
- Freedich gold trader
- etc
- They wanted people to focus on other events
- Trion has an open issue with XL to see if conflict is supposed to last so long
- Pretty sure peace is supposed to be that long
- Mistmerrow
- The battles are infrequent
- Timing is not that good for multiple timezones
- Start a discussion of the forums if you want to give more feedback
- About making them happen more frequently
- Khrolan's suggestion
- Language
- Another unexpected change
- Trion is looking to get it changed back
- From letters back to symbols
- Spreading Flames Event
- May 7 - May 10 will be the last days
- Could bring the event back later this year
- Trion is hoping so
- Dread Prophecies screenshot contest
- Results should be posted this week
