A trello board has been created at 'LINK' so its a great place to post suggestions and changes and get involved with development.

TO DATE
To date we now have: readable books, crafting and forging, skill based levelling, magic, spellbooks, cleric miracles, minable ore, collectible herbs, alchemy, potions and poisons, lockpicking and magelock minigames, gambling, variable weapon stances.

We’ve got into the guts of the combat system and tweaked it for this update.



The Whiterock update brings skill based leveling into the game. Skill xp its tracked every time you hit an enemy, shoot an arrow, unpick a lock or cast a spell. When a skill is used enough it levels up the skill, separate to player perks.



Due to popular request, summoned essence weapons have been added! These give half magic and half combat skill experience when used. Great for mages or magical warriors.



Summoned Essence animals and creatures have been tweaked. They now become slightly more resilient and combat capable as player magic skill increases.

Wytchsun has received a micro content update! This brings the total to 30 in-game readable books to date.

We're working on some new under the hood content systems as well. This will allow us to have books unlock or enable spells ie such as essence animals like the essence wolf spell:



The next Wytchsun update will tweak and improve combat balance and bring a few new open world areas online.
