Hello there and welcome to the January edition of the Asheron’s Call Release Notes! As we all shake off the post-Holiday back to work//school blues, lets check out what is new and exciting this month in Asheron’s Call.
Updated Content and Functionality
· A new tower defense type game has been added to Dereth. This is a test of strategy intended for Society Masters. Rank up and make sure you check it out!
· A new daily kill task has been added which will have shifting objectives each month.
· High yield chests should no longer drop dinnerware in their primary profiles though they still have a very small chance at dinnerware in their secondary profile.
· Weapons with new tier stats in 420 and 400 wield should be far more common.
· Armor sets now have a higher chance of dropping.
· All armor sets now have an equal chance of dropping instead of favoring some over others, now get out there and complete your sets!
· The first part of a new expanding exploration quest has been added to the world. Get out there and find the first markers!
· A bug with the Blind Snowman quest has been fixed.
· Monster fights have been adjusted and should now be functioning more as they were intended to.
