19 December 2023 (22:55) by Archlight Team


Overall

● The Permafrost Queen's Reward Pool (christmas raid reward bag) will now drop Christmas Tokens.

● Fixed an issue with the Olympus Speed Run challenge (Slay the Hydra before 10 days of launch) wasn't properly working. The time to slay it has been increased from 10 days to 14 days temporarily due to the issue. Next season it will be back to 10 days.

● Fixed an issue where the resistance from certain upgrade levels, such as +31, weren't properly working.

● Fixed an issue where invisibility was being canceled upon casting healing spells.

● Fixed an issue where the Elemental Shields resistance increase from points and guaranteed effect weren't properly working.

● Fixed an issue where Daily Training - Absorb Summon effect, as well as its guaranteed effect from Monk weren't properly working.

● Fixed a description issue on Dragon Blade - Dragon Rush Artifact Effect from Samurai.
 

Elite Monsters

● Devilish, Primordial, Abyssal, Infernal attack strength has been reduced by 20%.

● Devilish, Primordial, Abyssal, Infernal gold essence multiplier has been increased by 50%.

● The aura to identify them has been updated to a big lightning to make it easier to see.
 

Christmas Event

● Improved the system to allow Christmas Portals to also be dropped on alternate dimensional hunts such as Darkness hunts, portal dimension hunts and duplicate spawns;

● Adjusted the chance to get portals on brackets lower than your character power;

● Improved the description for the !christmasportal command which now consider the correct mobs from the dimension you currently are, and also describing the power brackets of the player versus the mobs in case they are incompatible;

● Reduced the amount of points needed to gain a Christmas Token inside the portal going from 15 points for a token to 10 points increasing up to 30% the amount of tokens obtained each portal;

● The maximum player power bracket that is considered is bracket 9, this would make sure that players that are on a higher power bracket but doesn't have enough prestiges to access hunts from brackets 10 and 11 can still benefit from the pity system of the event;

● Killing mobs that have a bracket smaller than your considered power bracket will not count towards the pity system and will have a much lower chance of dropping portals, this already happened before, but was rebalanced;

The Queen of the Permafrost Mini-Raid

Every 4 hours after the reboot, a portal appears in the Christmas Camp. Beyond it, the Queen of the Permafrost awaits, trapped in her icy cocoon due to the relentless cold and the relentless snow-hating monsters. A global announcement echoes through the city, explaining that this portal is a chance to break her icy prison and thwart those who seek to keep her frozen.

Entering the Queen's Chamber, you find her standing there, but a 5-minute delay is in place for everyone to prepare. Health is vital for what lies ahead. Your mission: defeat as many snow monsters as possible in that chamber. Each monster defeated brings you closer to shattering her icy encasement and freeing her.

Monsters

Icicleus Hermitor

Snowyakalith

Glacian Warlord

As you break the icy shell, the Queen undergoes a magnificent transformation. Players can interact with her to receive random rewards from her generous pool of gifts.

The portal will vanish after 30 minutes.
