THRONE AND LIBERTY Update 1.7.0 downtime will begin at 10:30 p.m. PT (6:30 a.m. UTC) on November 13 and last approximately 4.5 hours. With the frightful conclusion of Haunted Harvest comes the start of Arena Season One. Reach higher ranks for unique rewards like a seasonal title, plus themed Dash, Glide, and Swim morphs. Check out the full release notes, including changes to Peace-mode world boss access portals, UI, and more below. [h3]General[/h3] [list] [*] Guilds that have control of Stoneguard Castle can now schedule Tax Deliveries. [*] Haunted Harvest is now over. Thanks to everyone that participated! [*] Arena Season One is now live. Ready your weapons as the rankings reset for a fresh climb to the top of the ladder. [*] Event Times: Regions with Daylight Savings Time changes (Europe and North America) have had their hourly event schedules adjusted to return events to the pre-time change hours. [*] For Peace-mode world boss spawns, new access portals will now appear at the entrance of open world dungeons to transport players to the boss location and avoid Night and Eclipse effects. [*]When using these access portals, players will be teleported near the boss portal selection area and placed under a 30-second protection effect. [*]Known Issue: The new Sanctum of Desire access portal appears inside the PvP-enabled border and will be adjusted in a future update. We recommend dash morphing to access this portal while under the initial 5-second protection effect for the time being. [*] Weekly Mission rewards adjusted to once again reset during the weekly maintenance window. [*] Accounts with negative Lucent balances will no longer be able to receive Lucent distributions from their guild. [*] Equipment: Extract items can now be compared with equipped gear to view the effective changes of applying the extract. [*] Equipment: The default keybind for viewing a piece of equipment at max enhancement is now ALT+G. [*] Skills - Dagger: Fixed an issue that caused the effect from the passive skill Assassin Step to carry over when changing weapons. [*] Combat: Enhanced the visual effects for Heavy Attacks. [/list] [h3]UI[/h3] [list] [*] Exiting a popup with the ESC key while viewing your inventory no longer closes the Inventory screen. [*] Fixed an issue when opening multiple selection chests that reset the quantity opened to 1 when clicking to confirm. [*] Applied the latest localization strings to correct various text length issues. [/list] We look forward to watching server storylines develop in the first Castle Siege event on November 17. Thanks for your support! We’ll see you in Solisium.
