Now, you have an option between having players submit an application for your approval to join, or having players join without any approval.

PvP

  • We've changed the way stat weights are accounted for all classes in PvP.

This does not mean PvP is in a playable state, continued efforts will slowly reshape PvP however it's still low in our priority list.

In-Game Chat

  • Now handled by a separate server.
  • World Chats are now free. We're testing a new feature which would make its way into our future VIP system.

In order to send this type of message, simply add a prefix /@, @, or /vip before followed by a space before your message.
Example syntax: @ [Message]
There's a cooldown of 30 seconds between each message broadcast.

Misc.

  • The initial hype for Vandar has died down, we're now back to using the OG title screen.
  • Numerous client performance improvements.
  • Several titles have been added to the Solo Challenge NPC shop (Rajuul NPC).
  • Added support for 0 XC (Free) items in the XC Shop. Stay tuned, we're going to have some freebies once the XC Shop rework drops.

Known Issues

  • Sometimes the launcher will fail to start to game, giving you a Start game from DNLauncher.exe. We recommend you take various steps such as relogging, restarting the launcher, etc. We're looking for a higher reproduction rate on our end before we can resolve the issue.
  • When you click the Save button on the Client Addons menu in the launcher, then close the main Settings window, the launcher will shift to the background and bring all windows behind it to the front.
