Build 0.17.913
Released: December 19, 2025
Double Experience Bonus
In the spirit of the holidays and as a thank you to everyone who has been participating in Early Access so far, we have activated a double experience bonus. This bonus will remain in effect until our Combat and Progression Update which is currently targeted for Spring of 2026. Note: In some cases, for example if you are soloing an NPC with a high group experience modifier, the amount of experience you earn will be capped for that encounter.
General
Players may now tame and ride horses throughout Terminus beginning at level 20. To learn the taming skill and acquire their first mount, players should visit the stables in Demith village and speak to Stablehand Phosy. Please note that this is the initial implementation of our mounts and taming system. Additions and enhancements to this system are planned for future updates. If for some reason players lose their ability scroll for Taming once they have obtained it, a replacement can be obtained by speaking with Stablehand Phosy again.
• Added the “Use Mount” key mapping, currently mapped to the H key, which will call your active mount to you if you have one, dismount if you’re mounted, or mount if you’re standing close enough to your active mount. This can be remapped in the Input tab of the Settings window.
• You can now toggle walking on/off with the period/full stop (-) key. This can also be remapped in the Input tab of the Settings window.
• Falling damage has been reduced a bit
Bug Fixes
• The Unmortal Barrage ability used by some Wraith NPCs should now properly end when it reaches its full duration.

• Fixed an issue where a player that was renamed would leave their old name in the social/who lists.
• Fixed the bug where pets stopped responding to player’s command after killing one of their targets.
• Fixed an issue that was preventing an object in Halnir Cave from being properly interacted with by players. Also upgraded the visual appearance of the object.
• Fixed an issue that was preventing many class buffs from properly applying their benefits, including Enchanter Runeskin, Monk Wheel Kick, Rogue Ambidextrous, and Dire Lord Bloodfiend.
World
• Global lighting has been adjusted for better visibility during nighttime hours. Night is still full of terrors, however.
• The abandoned village of Hiryth Hill in the Silent Plains has been populated with several new NPCs. The area is designed for small group hunting around level 30.
• General Goods vendors around Terminus seem to have acquired a stockpile of a strange and wondrous item which they are offering to passing adventurers for a minimal price. When questioned, none would reveal the source of these goods.
• A strange magical artifact has appeared just inside the entrance of Halnir Cave. Rumors persist that a twin to this artifact exists somewhere deeper in the depths of the caverns.
• The village of Demith has received a set dressing pass and should now look more lived-in. Additional visual improvements are planned for future updates. Note that some NPCs and crafting stations have moved around within the village as part of this pass.
• Not to be outdone by the villagers of Demith, by the order of the Queen, the Thronefastian Ministry of Interior Decoration has removed most of the furnishings from houses within Availia temporarily. Reportedly, the Queen’s architects are hard at work drafting plans to restore the grandeur of Availia as soon as possible.

The effect can no longer be triggered by AoE spells that don’t require a target for the time being.
VFX

• Removed screenshake element from Cinder Lance and improved performance
• Fixed casting VFX not showing up for Arcane Cords
• Updated generic root VFX for some rooted status effects

• Fixed the tooltip for element school of spells (Most were reading as Cold)
Known Issues and Notes

• Movement speed for players mounted on horses is still undergoing tuning and may be adjusted in future updates.
• Additional polishing for mount and rider animations is planned for future updates.
• In some cases, players may fall below the terrain when logging in or teleporting. Players in this situation should utilize the /stuck command if possible. This issue will be addressed in a future update.

Build 0.17.706
Released: November 19, 2025
Important
The Wizard class has received a major revision. Many of the old wizard spells have been deactivated and replaced with new versions. If you play a wizard, you will need to visit a trainer NPC and repurchase most of your spells. The spell prices for new wizard spells have been temporarily set extremely low to help make this easier for players. We hope that our wizard players will enjoy the new and improved magical power at their disposal.
World
• Local weather systems have been re-enchanted to stop chasing players across the map.
• The Wildmound Cradle in the Silent Plains is now accessible for characters level 36 and higher. Adventurers who wish to explore this new area should proceed with caution.
• A special high-level event has been enabled in Black Rose Keep. This event can occur randomly and has a higher chance to occur when more groups are actively adventuring in the zone.
• Gnashura, the Uncounted Prince, may once again be confronted within his lair in Halnir Caves. The appropriate key will be needed to open the door to said lair, however, and obtaining that key may require several expeditions into the dungeon to unravel some of its secrets.
General
• Added support for being able to map the same key to different things in the key binds UI.
• Added the “Auto Sprint” key bind, which by default is mapped to the LeftShift key and allows sprint to be toggled on/off by tapping the LeftShift key, in addition to being able to hold that key down to sprint as before.
• Added a “Move Offscreen Ul Windows Into View” button to the Settings — Other menu. It helps recover any panels that wandered offscreen without disturbing your carefully arranged layout.
• Corrected an issue that would sometimes cause spell effects to not display in the intended position on a target.
• Fixed a bug in character creation that left the Ul in a bad state after cancelling.
• Most wraith NPCs now count as undead for the purposes of spells and abilities that target the undead.
• Current weight will now be displayed in red text when the player is encumbered (carrying more than their max carry weight).
• Macros now have a limit of 50 lines.
• Added more hair styles for halflings.
• Added the /rename command that allows players to rename their character by typing /rename followed by the new name. Please note that you can only rename your character once. If the command fails, it does not count as your single use allowance per character.
Bug Fixes
• Fixed a crash related to unsupported ASCII characters in chat.
• Fixed several issues with climbing and hanging systems.
• Fixed a bug causing /who filters to be ignored, filtering now behaves as intended.
• Fixed a social menu bug that caused the LFG tab to open after refreshing the Who tab.

• Ranger scout pets should now be properly summoned when beginning channeling.
• IK adjustment to fix an issue where some movement animations were not playing properly on some races.

• Fixed an issue with climbing where players could accidentally climb down below the surface of the terrain and end up under the world.
Items
• Moved Sovehly’s Searing Slippers onto their own table for the Banshee and increased their drop chance some. This means they have a chance to drop in addition to the other items, rather than instead of. Normalized the drop chance for the other items that remain in her main loot table.
• Updated Tel’Daedras’ loot tables. They are now categorized by item rarity with a normalized drop chance for each item in their table – the total potential number of items dropped per kill remains the same. Many aspects of endgame itemization will continue to evolve as we move forward – thank you all for your diligent data gathering and feedback on her drop rates.

VFX

General
• This update includes a fix for a Unity security vulnerability.
