Overview of Patch 1.5.1
The 1.5.1 hotfix for Legends of Aria Eternal serves as a targeted maintenance release, addressing mechanical inconsistencies and bugs introduced in the 1.0.5 feature update. This release does not require a client update, meaning players remain on version 1.4.3. The primary focus of this patch is the stabilization of housing systems, the correction of character creation statistics, and adjustments to reward scaling for Chaos Camp events.
Housing and Character System Fixes
Several critical issues affecting player property and character progression have been resolved:
- Housing Collision: Previously, packing a plot or moving furniture left invisible collision barriers on empty lots. These barriers now correctly despawn when the object is removed from the world.
- Advanced Restore Plots: To prevent the accidental loss of items, the Advanced Restore system now requires explicit confirmation before repacking. This ensures that items stored within a Moving Crate are not destroyed during the process.
- Character Creation: A bug that prevented template stats from applying correctly has been fixed. New characters now receive the intended starting attributes; for example, Fighters now correctly begin with 30 Strength and 30 Agility.
Combat and Event Adjustments
The hotfix introduces balance changes to high-risk activities and quality-of-life improvements for player safety toggles:
- Chaos Camp Rewards: Gold rewards for Chaos Camp and Hell chests have been increased by 50%.
- Chaos Resonance Shard: A new item, the Chaos Resonance Shard, has been added with a 10% drop rate in Chaos Camp chests. This item allows players to receive remote notifications for camp attacks and breach portals.
- Breach Reinforcements: The health of breach reinforcement guards has been reduced from 1,500 to 1,200.
- Safety Toggles: The 'Never hurt other players' toggle now persists through region transfers and logins for its full two-hour duration, preventing accidental flagging.
- Bard Performance: Bard songs now correctly utilize both Musicianship and Entertainment skills, ensuring that Musicianship can gain experience even if the Entertainment roll fails.
- Hell Converter Fees: Fees for Pure and Volatile conversions have been adjusted to 20,000 and 35,000 gold respectively, down from previous costs of 25,000 and 50,000.
