Greetings,
This week we're opening the Preview Server again to test some more weapon adjustments. A few different weapons have been changed. Check them out and please give us your feedback. To help with your testing, the Supply Depot has the altered weapons for sale.
All Calibur Combat Style weapons charge attack damage zones increased from four to six, damage zones synced more closely to animation. Enjoy the new punch of these legendary blades:
- Leviathan Blade attack and charge attack damage moderately increased.
- Cold Iron Vanquisher attack and charge attack damage moderately increased. Bonus Damage vs Undead increased from High to Very High.
- Amputator Combat Style changed from Brandish to Calibur! Damage minorly increased, Bonus Damage vs Slime increased from High to Very High, chance of causing Fire added to charge attack.
- Turbillion attack and charge attack damage minorly increased and bullet damage moderately increased. Charge attack bullet slowed, lifetime increased, damage zone minorly increased, and chance of causing Shock added.
Any reskins, visual changes associated with status, lower star versions of these weapons, or recipe changes due to change of combat style will be updated for future testing before a final release. The preview server will be open until October 26th unless there are some unforeseen circumstances.

Greetings,
Below you'll find the changes for the latest release.
Changes:
- The constructor gremlin Sybil has moved to Haven and is continuing work with Krogmo.
- Chat command "/sybil" will go straight to Sybil.
- The Bazaar area in Haven has had a few renovations.
Krogmo's Crucible Changes:
- There is now a rating system for rating player levels.
- There are 4 phases categories for levels, this can be represented by the tabs in the interface: a level can be private, it can be in the "public playground", where anything goes, or serious levels can be in the "preparing for approval" state, and levels must have at least 10 ratings with an average rating of 10 to submit for approval.
- Even when a level is already approved, if its rating drops low enough it will not be picked for pvp matches.
- Ratings are wiped when a level is re-uploaded.
- In the Coliseum Crucible interface, levels can now be filtered by game type.
- Crucible: added "Castle, Light" tiles.
Guild Changes:
- The Guild Treasury will now block deposits of materials that have no way to be crafted in the guild.
- Guilds can sell unwanted materials to the Birdsong Trading Co for the full resale price, instead of half price as previously.
- Guild Formation is now 100 energy, and only requires a deposit of 2,000 crowns
- Guild hall upkeep costs have been lowered on 2nd floor wings and some installation fees have been lowered.
Other Changes:
- In-game fonts are crisper and scale better.
- Extra Large and Huge chat font options added.
- Fix certain objects from "flashing" in-world, depending.
- On newer MacOS (Golden Gate and Tahoe) window controls and window resizing will now work again. They were only working on older versions.
- Fixed Mac rendering bug that caused some objects to be completely black.
- The discord setting has moved from game options to a "partner" tab.
- "Party with any" (language) now defaults to true.
- Fix a bug that "dishonored" everyone still present if a Super Brawl match never starts.
