  • Changing to Bloodlust Mode will now require cast time.
    • Bloodlust Mode cannot be changed during combat.
Click to expand...
Not a single player I know liked this change in future patches, because now Bloodlust Mode turns on instantly and at any moment, and after the update there will be a cast within 5 seconds, which only causes discomfort, if this change makes any practical sense, then I suggest reducing the cast time to 1 or 2 seconds and allow it to be turned on during combat, because the animation is quite bright and noticeable for other players.

  • The Great Prairie of the West will no longer have a Peace time period, so it will now always be a Conflict region.
    • It will change into a War status during Guardian Scramble.
Click to expand...
In all existing localizations of the game (Korean, Russian and European) in the first month of this update was endless Peace time period, I would really like to always see conflict/war, because PvP in the open world in the last few years is disappearing, as there is no motivation to come to the locations like it was a long time ago in older patches. This location will clearly be very popular for farming new items to awaken the updated T4 erenor and fight for spots for farming would be interesting.

  • The Erenor Armor set effect was changed.
    • Erenor: 3 sets: no effects / 7 sets: Move Speed +5%
    • Awakened Erenor: 3 sets: Move Speed +5% / 7 sets: 10% chance for +100(2s) Toughness when getting hit
    • Brilliant Erenor: 3 sets: Move Speed +5% / 7 sets: 10% chance for +200(2s) Toughness when getting hit
    • Refined Erenor: 3 sets: Move Speed +5% / 7 sets: 10% chance for +400(2s) Toughness when getting hit
Click to expand...
No one who played in future patches liked the change of the effect of The Erenor Armor set, because 10% chance to get EVEN +400 Toughness looks maximally useless, because it is 2-3% survivability at random moment for 2 seconds, so you can consider that this effect simply does not exist (it is impossible to feel it, because 2-3% survivability is almost a margin of error + it triggers at random most often even unnecessary moment). Instead, you can do anything more useful:
  • Leave the current effect as it is — 3 sets: Move Speed +5% / 7 sets: Move Speed +7%
  • Add new effect from the update, but don't remove the old ones — 3 sets: Move Speed +5% / 5 sets: +7% movement speed / 7 sets: 10% chance to get +N(2s) Toughness
  • Make the new effect permanent instead of random — 3 sets: +5% Move Speed / 7 sets: always +N Toughness
  • Still make the effect random, as it is written in the patch note, but improve it by N times, so that it can at least somehow affect survivability during PvP
  • Do anything at your choice instead of this useless new effect
 
I don't see the shining souls mentioned in the patch notes

Will the Kindled Spirit Shining Soul and Bloomfang Shining Soul be removed?

Ah apologies. Those are not vanilla items but custom items we added that include their soulshard as well just to the kyrios shop. They were not in base patch notes because those notes do not include anything custom yet.

Maybe you could at least think about increasing the duration of the new effect, like from 2 to 5 seconds? Because right now it's as useless as possible, even +7% Move Speed looks better, just imagine what is +200 or +400 Toughness for 2 seconds at a random moment of real PvP...

It's okay, just didn't want it to be forgotten :)

This is not mentioned in patch note but with 9.5 update in all localizations (korean, russian, european) there was removed 'executioner' ranking. I personally think this is not a needed change and it would be great if we could keep it.

It still exists in 9.5. Wasn't removed.

Shining versions of Bloomfang and Kindled Spirit from arena shop includes Ghost Soulshard and Solar Soulshard.
I don't see any version of these Shining Souls in the Manastorm shop.

As they are the custom items, info regarding them will be included into the custom part of the patch notes.

As it was said above, we are not making custom changes to the set effect. But keeping old set effect instead of a new one will be considered.

Hi,

the below is not an arena shop item at, but at general merch:

View attachment 30714

also I noticed a form of extraction alembic in the manastorm shop, while rn it costs a few silver at the general merchant.
View attachment 30715
View attachment 30716

Please keep these two items in the general merchant store as they are, no need to make it expensive for people to change cosmetics.

Those items were not going to be removed from the General Merchant. Arena shop and manastorm shop are just alternative ways to obtain them.

Glad to hear it, I know the extraction alembic was a credit item on legacy at the end so wanted to make sure.

Make the t4 wings of erenor Blue and people will make it 100% cause all want to know that they make set t4
 
For extra context, here's an old list of past "changes" that did not get put through and will (afaik) also not be part of 9.5:

Not sure if more should be added by now lol
 
Please make Fishing and Salvaging sunken ships profitable.


Currently, Cargo Transportation is the only profitable way to earn money, as Fishing and Salvaging can't compete with it due to pricing.


You’ve already made a modification for the barge — that was a big step toward revitalizing this aspect of the game.


This change would also breathe life into the sea. Right now, aside from transporting cargo along a few routes, people don’t do much there.

Fishing already has a boost same as commerce, though, with a higher proficiency increasing the gold yield of fish.

I can get at least up to 1g per labor, and strategic fishing spots enable you to burn your labor on fishing.

Also there is a daily quest and a weekly quest for 2 days a week, to get extra rewards...
