ROADMAP
- Changes for Skilltree will be wiping per semi-annual schedule.
- Nerfs for harvesting, mining, combat and medical trees, several perks will be moved around the tree based on effectiveness
some perks may be removed - Ultimates will need to be learned via npc’s at monuments around the map or quests at sid
- Changes to loot loot plugin – is being swapped out for a different one that is more robust, not expecting major changes to the loot. It should improve probabilities and rare loot drop rates.
- That’s all for now!
