Happy holiday season, everybody! We here at Alter Aeon wish to share that our next game event will be the Winter Solstice celebration, beginning next week on Tuesday, December 20th and ending on Wednesday, January 3rd. Animated trees roam the world for players to harvest. We can expect the return of the EPDS, or emergency package delivery service, for players to try their package launching skills, and the winter holiday themed pk arena matches. There will be plenty for everyone of all levels to do, so don’t miss out!
There have been major updates to damage as it relates to mob types. This consists of several parts: * When you consider a mob, it will tell you if the mob has vulnerabilities or resistances to blunt, edged, pointed and flexible damage types in a format very similar to how elemental damage is displayed. (The system now uses aggregrates with caps to prevent total immunity or abject vulnerability.) * A few mob types had their damage resistances changed, most notably machines are no longer vulnerable to pierce. * A few mob types that had little outcome on stats now have minor damage resistances and vulnerabilities added. For example, amphibians are now slightly vulnerable to edged damage, and fish are now slightly vulnerable to pointed damage, while reptiles are slightly resistant to edged damage. Crafting updates: * Crafting experience is now routed out through a single function. Crafting exp is somewhat lower on average, but creating mastercraft quality adds significant multipliers. * You can now add grips to lapidary clubs. * Two new southern-style weapons: the jitte, and the tekkan. These are made with a new weapon part, the jitte blade. They are one-handed pounding weapons with guards, so they can have gemstones mounted to them. * Higher quality ammunition has a reduced chance of being destroyed when used. For example, a mastercrafted arrow is less likely to be destroyed than an expertly crafted one. Other updates: * Player edited long descriptions have been replaced with a system for assigning features such as skin, eye and hair color, hair style and length, facial scars and the appearance of noses, cheeks, jaws and mouths. You can change your features whenever you like, as often as you like. These features are used to generate long descriptions that other players can see. * The "event post" command will no longer work during trivia events (to prevent people accidentally giving away the answer with bogus posts). * The ‘sea navigation’ skill has been scuttled, and its functionality is now the default behavior for the navigation command on ships. In its place, 'extremophile' is now the top tier Cartographers Guild skill. This skill reduces the movement costs when trekking and gathering resources in hostile terrains ranging from crystal, ice, shadow and even lava! For those unfamiliar with our game, Alter Aeon is a medieval fantasy PvE hack-and-slash that is newbie-friendly and easy to play!
