Dear Illarionites,

We proudly present the next content update that also brings you a small client update. Here are the main changes:

• Iron ore veins’ haul is doubled. Happy mining!
• Finding gems no longer counts towards vein depletion
• Added warning message alerts what step of a recipe alchemists were on if their mortar breaks mid-recipe
• Prevent filling glasses from decorative bottles
• Removed relict glyph effects in crafting/repair
• First draft adjustment to gem bonus in fighting
• Improvements to GM tools for changing attributes
• Fixed a bug that made it very difficult to obtain rare food items
• Fixed problem that made it impossible to attack opponents wearing special combinations of weapons/shields
• Fixed an alchemy bug that made a potion moved to a bottle from a cauldron have the potion effect set mistakenly to 0
• Fixed a bug with automatic unequipping of broken items losing their special properties
• Removal of spammy auto-emotes from fighting
• Increased parchment text limit from 240 characters to 986, inline with the existing limit on bulletin message boards
• Fixed a (13 month old!) bug that made is so crafting did not reduce the food bar
• Gem values in armour and weapons now reflect an accurate percentage of how much they affect your defensive/offensive values
• Fixed a bug that allowed quills to be used in the bag. Also added a message when using empty parchments to use a quill to write on it.
• When entering a number above the limit of 250 (now in line with the trading limit instead of being an odd 255) in the crafting dialogue box, it will now default to 250 instead of being set to a much lower and random seeming number that depended on input
• Attempting to use a gem grinder with empty hands will no longer produce an additional inform about there not being a kiln nearby to work with. Any other similar occurrences should also have been fixed by this change, if there are any.
• NPC Fijanna Squall was moved to a new location

Special thanks to Brightrim and all volunteering testers! Illarion is a game where everyone can contribute and it is shaped by you.

Have fun!
