ear players,

You are invited to join our Test Server!

Improved stability during login/relog and client exit, added safe memory cleanup for long sessions, refreshed assets, and updated the client executable.

Battle List

• Battle List no longer errors during login or relog. It now waits until your character is placed on the map before scanning for nearby creatures.

Stability and performance

• Added periodic, safe cleanup of script memory when usage is high to curb long-session memory growth and reduce rare silent client closures.
• Fixed a rare crash on exit or logout by shutting down background HTTP work earlier during client shutdown.

Client and assets

• Updated client executable with the latest fixes.
• Refreshed client assets; minor visual adjustments may be noticeable.

Kind regards,
Retronia

ear players,

With the next Server Save: A new multi-tool is now available, along with a new slain effect. Read on to see what has changed.

New: Explorer's Tools

• Added Explorer's Tools to the Store. It is a lightweight all-in-one utility that works as a rope, shovel, machete, and pick.

Combat and UI: classic slain experience

• Creature deaths now include a short slain transition before on-death effects finish processing. This makes kills feel smoother and more in line with the classic experience.
• Added the “Use classic slain effect” toggle to Options. When enabled, you will see the classic slain visuals and the legacy information bar; when disabled, the modern death visuals remain active.

Quest Fix: Obliterator

• The Obliterator Quest levers should now work normally again after a fix related to the map Refresh Tiles system.

Kind regards,
Retronia

For the next server save:
The Enhanced Gold Pouch now collects gold normally from humanoid monsters, but still does not collect gold from player corpses.

Kind regards,
Retronia

ear players,

Coins auto-collected into the enhanced gold pouch from corpses now register correctly in the hunt analyser and loot statistics. Counts reflect the actual coins moved, preventing under- or over-reporting in session totals.

Fixes

• Hunt analyser now tracks gold picked up by the enhanced gold pouch from corpses accurately.
• Loot statistics use the actual collected coin amount instead of the pouch item count.
• Loot tracking updates reliably when coins are auto-transferred from corpses into the pouch.

Kind regards,
Retronia

ear players,

Scarab coin gates inside Ankrahmun tombs have been improved. The gates now count Scarab Coins across multiple stacks on the floor, track daily entries separately for each tomb, and show a clearer message after your first entry of the day.

Ankrahmun Tombs – Scarab Coin Gates

• Gates now count all Scarab Coins placed on the required tile, even if they are split into multiple stacks.
• Each tomb now tracks your daily entry cost separately.
• Your first entry of the day into each tomb costs your level divided by 10, rounded down, with a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 100 Scarab Coins.
• Subsequent entries into the same tomb on the same day cost the first-entry price divided by 10, rounded up.
• Example: a level 299 character pays 29 Scarab Coins for the first entry. After that, further entries into that same tomb during the same day cost 3 Scarab Coins.
•  A message is now shown after your first entry, informing the reduced cost for later entries.

Kind regards,
Retronia

ear players,

Ankrahmun’s scarab coin passages now can scale their coin cost by level. A new Enhanced Gold Pouch streamlines coin collection and works with Gold Converters, channeling scrolls show clean on‑screen countdowns and Cast spectator spell messages route correctly.

Ankrahmun scarab coin passages

• All scarab coin passages in Ankrahmun (Dipthrah, Mahrdis, Morguthis, Omruc, Rahemos, Temple, Thalas, and Vashresamun) now share unified behavior.
• The number of Scarab Coins required adjusts to your level.

Items and Store

• New: Enhanced Gold Pouch — a high‑utility, coin‑only pouch that automatically collects coins you take or loot from creature corpses directly into the pouch.
• If you carry Gold Converters, the pouch will automatically spend charges to convert full stacks (e.g., 100 gold → 1 platinum), reducing stack clutter.
• The Enhanced Gold Pouch is soulbound on purchase and is supported by the Soulbound Refunder. Multiple pouches are supported. A small visual effect plays whenever coins are pulled into the pouch.
• Enhanced Gold Pouch can be obtained from the Store, or you can also upgrade your current Gold Pouch with gold coins from the NPC Alexander in Edron.
• House offers: eligible house‑related multi‑count offers now include a bulk x5 option with an approximate 25% discount, with prices rounded to tidy values.

Channeling and countdown visibility

• Hometown TP Scroll, House TP Scroll, and Mailbox Scroll now show a floating second counter above your character instead of repeating chat messages, making timers easier to read and reducing chat spam.
• Starting the mailbox summon now posts a single “Summoning Express Mailbox...” message at the start.

Casting and chat

• Spell words typed in local tabs that support it (such as Spectators while using Cast) are now correctly recognized and routed as spell messages instead of regular chat.

Kind regards,
Retronia

ear players,

The Store now features a weekly rotating selection of outfits with a promoted discount you can reroll, 19+ new outfits were added, Numpad Enter works like Enter across the client, and you can no longer equip more than one quiver at once.

Store & Outfits

• Weekly Outfit Rotation: The Outfits category now highlights a weekly rotation of offers. One outfit is marked as promoted with a discount, and the Store shows a live countdown for when the selection refreshes.
• Reroll the promoted pick: A new reroll action lets you reshuffle the promoted outfit for the current week. The promotion discount starts higher and may step down with each reroll, but won’t go below a small minimum. Rerolls reset with the weekly rotation.
• Promo bundle support: When an outfit is promoted, you can purchase a discounted bundle that covers the base outfit and enabled addons in one go. If you already own parts, you pay only for what’s missing.
• New outfits available: 19 outfits were added, including Owl Keeper, Citizen of the Dunes, Void Master, Lion of War, Champion, Conjurer, Chaos Acolyte, Death Herald, Spirit Caller, Winter Warden, Philosopher, Grove Keeper, Festive, Pharaoh, Siege Master, Mercenary, Sinister Archer, Dream Warrior, and Percht Raider.

Controls & UI

• Numpad Enter equals Enter: Pressing Numpad Enter now behaves exactly like Enter throughout the client. This includes confirming dialogs, submitting text fields (such as search inputs), and adding new lines in multi‑line text boxes.

Equipment

• Quiver rule: You can no longer equip more than one quiver at the same time across your hands and ammo slots. If you already have a quiver equipped, equipping another will be blocked.

Kind regards,
Retronia
