Heroes!
Welcome to Patch 2.0.15. Thank you for taking part in the experimental test this past week. It's been great to see your feedback on that, as well as the bugs you've reported as a result of the test. The patch focuses on bringing back some of the tightness of the combat loops and engagements you face within Helmgart that you, rightfully, told us was out of whack. This covers areas such as enemy density, strike reliability, sound cues and enemy spawns. The Experimental Test highlighted some new issues and provided feedback on the end event tuning that was present in the test. As a result of the test, we've fixed a bunch of those issues such as explosions triggering multiple times (this impacted bombs, hagbane, Sienna staves etc). The issue of bots dying through the Skittergate has been resolved, as well as other issues reported in the test.

Patch 2.0.14.1 just went live, which removes the Geheimnisnacht keep theme and fixes an issue with non-Latin fonts not displaying correctly in Latin-based localised game clients.The Geheimnisnacht Event will still be running until 17.00 UTC at which point it will be disabled (no further patch required). This will also mark the end of season 1, as announced in our Season 2 blog post at which point the leaderboards will be frozen. We will be taking another pass over the leaderboards to identify 'bad actors' and remove them - and sanction where necessary. We will have news on Season 2 in the coming weeks, including the free Drachenfels content drop and the changes in place for the second season of the Winds of Magic expansion. Read more
