With this update, quests will now be fully persistent. This means you can start working on a quest objective, logout and when you log back in later - you'll be just where you left off.

This is all part of building the foundation for our quest system and you can expect to see many more quest and quest chains being added shortly!

This update also adds the addition of SSAO (Thank you for the suggestion Zharkan!). This dramatically improves the visuals of Elegon and makes it more cosy and immersive than ever.

I hope you enjoy this regular update and as I say, Expect plenty more very soon!
