This weeks patch brings the next phase of class improvements to the game, a new test area and some bug fixes.
New Combat Testing Area
We have heard from the players that they would like an area in game to test out abilities, rotations and setups outside of standard dungeon combat. Players can find a new area in the latest patch in the Crypt of Horrors dungeon to do this. The camp is located outside the dungeon gates just down the road from where players load in to the dungeon. There is a single target dummy for solo testing and a few target dummies in close proximity for larger group testing. We intend to possibly add more things to this area in the future.
Class Improvements
We will begin our next phase of improving the classes over the coming months. Below is a list of the initial changes.

Fixed issue with Flame Lords. They should no longer use cooperative abilities when one has died and should not regenerate health when shielded
Falling damage caused by Smoulderwing and Quoron who have launched players in air are now capped by percentage of max health and should no longer kill players unpredictably
The cost for upgrading items has been reduced (in terms of essence and magical cores required).
Eav 19.8, foreign Mortals rejoice for language localisations have arrived! Item highlights have also been revisited and tweaked along with minor chapter reworks.
New Language Localisations, though not full regional localisations. I have translated the bulk of the game's text from English into six different languages; Spanish, German, Russian, Chinese, Turkish, and Japanese. Everything from menus to item pick ups will now be translated, somethings such as environmental details or decals will remain in English to not interfere with the game's story and setting. You may only change your language in the main menu with the newly added 'translation' button.
New Item Highlights, have been implemented in addition to the existing hover text. Hovering over items should now display them with a transparent, red tint. Spotting items against the darkness should be a little easier now for those speedy Mortals.
Chapter Reworks, another minor pass has been made at refreshing up our beginning act. I've redone lighting for chapter's 4-6 along with various environmental changes. New decals have been created, replaced old props, tweaked audio sources - the spring cleaning every Mortal deserves.
