  • Giant Toad damage reduced by about 33% on all 3 attacks

Party

  • Experience sharing is now enabled through parties. You must be 50m distance of the XP source (e.g. the dead NPC) to receive your share of the experience (~3 screens away at full zoom).

Core

  • You can no longer die from DOTs (Poison, Burn etc.) when in a safe zone or building

  • Added some basic control tutorial popups for first login to help players understand movement, peace mode and running. This will be improved and expanded.
