| Dimas is now available much earlier in the game I've felt for a while now that Dimas appears too late in the game and players seem to agree. I've now made him available much earlier (in the same dungeon accessible earlier). For those that don't want to go back, or are past this point, he will still be available in the usual place. Both old and new work. 3/02/24 +1.5.2.0 + Dimas appears too late in the game for many players. Now he can be acc… | 13622411 | |

| Some new additions and a major quest change Hi everyone! First I want to mention a major change. There was a quest, Silk Road, that is given fairly early but could not be completed until later, and this was confusing a lot of people. I've moved the quest to later in the game. If you already have it. nothing will change. Aside from that, I've made some gold cost changes to Forging and Sharpening, as well as adding some new regular and uni… | 13064909 | |
