November 11th

Fixed

  • The dialogue with the NPC Gil Swigmore is now correctly updating in any situation after delivering items.
    Previously, delivering items in a specific order caused the dialogue to incorrectly retain the option to deliver the same item again. However, completing either of the remaining two requests would function as intended, granting players the Fairy reward.

    • The Free Charge is now equivalent to 60,000,000 silver (following existing logic).
  • We’ve increased the cost of Warforging Equipment in response to the additional and increased methods of obtaining silver added in Horizon's Call. Warforging is intended to be an ultra-late-game upgrade, and we want the investment required to reflect its powerful nature. The new costs are designed to ensure that Warforging remains a meaningful and rewarding goal for players who have reached this stage.

Fixed

  • The damaging debuff applied after the Rift's time limit expires is now correctly removed when the boss is defeated, and a new timer is set for claiming the chest.
