Howdy!
Thanks in advance to all of you for the kind words! I've had a few busy weeks and couldn't manage to update the thread here. However I'll let you know that the server is running just fine with some results that I *gotta be honest* I wasn't expecting to be that good.
Alright so, a few thumbs up about the server... We're now peaking at an average of 80~100 Players Online in a daily basis and reached our online record this weekend with 172 Players Connected to the server - is good? is it bad? Well, I'm pretty satisfied if you ask me.
I'll just leave here a few updates that were made since my last post so you can take a look at our development and the path that Shannara is taking:
08/03 Changelog
- You no longer receive a low-dura warning message when your ShannaraPack of arrows is under 500;
- Replaced the WineZone map with the one used in retail CO and added spawns to it;
- Added several sanity checks to LastManStanding event to prevent the event to bug itself;
- Increased the reward in LastManStanding and FB/SS Events to 100k, 2 +1 items and experience equivalent to half of an ExpBall;
- Lowered the re-spawn time of monsters by half;
- Lowered kills required to complete Bird Island quest from 25,000 to 15,000;
- Added support for this next weekend event - 2X Experience Rate & Slightly higher drop rates from Friday to Sunday;
- Readjusted battle logic between classes;
- Slightly readjusted Meteors & DBs drop rates;
- Reduced DB mine rate;
17/03 Changelog
- GuildWar end time has been changed. It now ends at 17:00 Server Time on Sunday;
- Slightly adjustments were made to LastManStanding and FB/SS Event so it wouldn't bug again;
- Costumer NPC has been added to Market (212,188) so players can buy Garments from her;
- GuildBeast spawn price has been decreased to 1,000,000 silvers;
- EpicRobe has been added and it can be obtained from DisCity, Terato, VotePoints or bought from Costumer in Market;
- Adjustments on drop rates were made once again;
- Easter Quest has been added. You can check its guide at our forums!
22/03 Changelog
- Socket rate have been slightly increased to compensate previous drop rates decreases and balance them up;
- Added new anti-cheat protection, please let us know if you run into any troubles with it;
- Added a few more monsters to MoonBox Tactics Quest;
- Added a few AlienSerpents spawns at the AdvancedZone and DevilKingL128 spawns to WineCave;
- Increased GuildWar prize, the winning guild will now receive 20,000,000 silvers, 3 Random Super Gems and a BlackTulip;
- Increased the the chance of getting 2 and 5 Treasure Points from TeasureChance at Treasure Hunt Event, there's still 30% chance of loosing 2 Points;
- Changed Easter Quest rewards for 130 players so they don't get exp;
- Renamed FreezingArrow to ShannaraPack and fixed its status;
- Changed ShannaraPack glow effects, it now looks just like any other arrow and depends on bow level;
- Added "OldStyleFont" rar pack, you just need to extract it to get the Conquer 1.0 font - there's the "New Style" rar as well in case you want to change it back;
- Released a temporary launcher until I finish building our own - should be ready by the time I wrote this post;
- You now only receive StrippedEggs (EasterQuest) drop notifications from the players in the same map as you;
I must tell you all that I'm sure that I forgot plenty of stuff there - still getting used to have a notepad open to write down everything while I'm messing around.
I believe that would be all for now, if you have any concerns, questions, ideas (please do) or complaints you may feel free to drop us a message, we'll try to reply as soon as possible!
Best regards to the whole community.
