Lighting, movement animations improvements and more!

Book of Knowledge

Completing a Monster Hunter Task will now reward you with a Book of Knowledge. This Book can be used to apply skill XP to Melee, Ranged, Magic, Light, Medium, or Heavy -- or, you can gain XP toward your character level!

Water Lighting Improvements

Water previously was unaffected by light after moving to Unity 6. Now, we've updated the water shaders to react to light. This brings the aesthetic together a lot better than before! Hope you like it.

Multi-Directional Movement Animations

We've added directional movement for all weapons, so things should feel a lot more fluid/natural now! These animations aren't the final versions, but are better than moonwalking!

Jasconian Rings

We often make items in honor of our most dedicated and loyal players. Jasc O Nine joins Scabbybob [TM] The Greener and more who have something special in game to thank them for being amazing and helpful as we build the game Jasconian Rings - one for each gathering profession have been added as rare drops - With a special secret if you collect them all

More Legendary Weapons

Clebarius continues to pump out siiiick new items that you'll be able to obtain with the keys system. Check them out!

Sporehaven - Elite Zone

A new zone has been added to the game, featuring content for 15-21 and 30-34 with mobs, quests, and lots of humor Chisme describes it as "An ecosystem of fungal life and mysterious darkness." Good luck!
