Greetings Nevarethians!
Today we are here to announce our newest content update, with a rework of the Merit Mastery, reworked skills and more.
Let's get into the details.
Merit Mastery Rework
Merged all the PvP and PvE, Sowrd and Magic Merit Mastery passives into a single new Merit Mastery skill.
Due to merging, the following skills will be removed from each character that had them:
The progress however needs conversion.
Old Progress:
OldSkillLevelTotal = OldSkillLevel1 + OldSkillLevel2 + OldSkillLevel3
NewSkillLevel = OldSkillLevelTotal * 3 / 10
So with the new Merit Mastery, at level 27 you have the same progress as with the old skills on level 30 each (90 total levels).
The new merged Merit Mastery stats received a boost.
We took both PvP and PvE and merged them, without nerfing any of the values, however to offset the now higher power gain, we boosted the defensive stats they provide.
Additionally, above the 27 base levels that correspond to the old skills, you can level the new skill to level 30, so 3 extra levels. See example below.
The Merit Mastery is no longer upgraded on the website and can no longer be upgraded with eCoins.
Each level has its own skill book and can be crafted via the temporary crafting.
Each skill book formula card can be purchased with Alz from Dispatched Officers Ahyidereun and Rasya.
Materials to craft the books, remain the same materials previously used for upgrading.
The old costs were summed and divided equally for the new levels, so each book for the new levels cost exactly the same.
With the merge of the Merit Skills, all characters can now have 2 extra passives learned.
With the merge of the Merit Skills, there will no longer be PvP and PvE medals and tickets.
There is now a new item called Honorable Medal (replaces old PvP and PvE medals) and another new items called Merit Mastery Ticket (replaces old PvP and PvE exchange tickets).
Old medals and tickets can be exchanged into the new ones at Secret Dealer Hirogley.
With this change, both Mission War rewards and Dungeon completion rewards will reward the new Merit Mastery Tickets.
Dispatched Officers Ahyidereun and Rasya will now also sell the updated Sealed Medals for bpth WExp and DP.
Merit Cube of Honor will now require a Honorable Medal to open.
Other Skill Changes
We have taken all the skills that we previously planned to implement effectors for, and we reviewed them.
Below you will see the additions and changes if there are any, if something is not shown, it means the values were not changed.
As we have no plans to work on effectors for now, the changes for the following skills reflect the final stats with effectors used, but without complicating the system:
Secret Dealer Hirogley Changes:
Removed Safeguard conversions.
Reorganized the items to make it easier to navigate the shop.
Other fixes and changes: *HOT*
Updated the option granting costs for all grades and slots of items.
Disabled auto-team balancer in Mission War, it will be now up to the players to join in higher numbers to compete with each other.
Fixed an old bug the caused the Force Blader to lose damage and critical rate in certain situations.
Extended rune slots from 30 -> 33. You can now learn 3 extra runes on your characters.
Important!
We once had some changes and different configurations for the starting skill ranks and at one point, we have forgot to properly add back some bonus stats from skill ranks, so basically many characters were created with a few less points than they should have had.
We have fixed this issue, and we will run a database script that will automatically give back the missing points to all characters, however, the stats will get reset to the initial values as well. This is required to make sure all classes receive the stats correctly based on their current level, resets, master resets.
Additionally, there was a new security measure added to the Reset Stat points module on the website, to ensure that stats from any source are always correctly calculated and provided to the character.
Finally, the Reset Stat Points will no longer cost 2,000 eCoins, it will be free but with a time expiry, so once every 24 hours.
