Balancing

After many community discussions our starter profession pre-sets have been updated with the aim of ensuring everyone gets a better start to the game. Skills have been reworked to not only keep in-line with profession choices, but ensure new players have a guideline of where to allocate their skill points. Atop this we have increased the number of items a player starts with and reworked the items to give an extra leg up.

• Crahn 'Novice' Gauntlet has been given +3 FCS;
• All professions have had their skills reworked;
• All professions have had their starter gear reworked;

Technical & Client Updates

• Fixed "Animationbug", you will now see NPCs shooting again;
