Gathering

• Tree and herb harvesting nodes can no longer spawn on top of each other.

Alchemy

• Added a recipe to craft Normal Dungeon Passes.

🛡️ Guild

• Missing guild upkeep now only disables guild functions until the upkeep is paid, instead of de-leveling the guild.

💰 Auction House

• You can now type to search for stats, including echo counts and stat tiers.
• You can now search for specific skills on Ring of Atlas.
• You can now list multiple stacks of materials at once.
• Improved UI/UX to prevent accidentally listing items far below your intended price.

💸 Trading & Soul Crystals

These changes are aimed at bots, RMT, and at making it much harder to lose your savings by accident.

• Trading now requires level 25 plus completion of the Shepherd's Outskirts quest, the Shepherd's Plains questline, and the Gevil's Beach questline. Players with a Kmitty Pass bypass all of these requirements.
• Dropping Soul Crystals now has a 5 second confirmation, and trading has been made more intuitive to reduce accidental losses.
• You can no longer drop more than 10,000 Soul Crystals at once from your inventory.
• Soul Crystals now follow the same party rules as EXP: members must be actively killing to receive a share of party pickups.
• Improved the darkness crystal system to be stricter and harder for bots to bypass. We'll keep tuning this as needed.
• Added a captcha when creating a new account.

🎨 Cosmetics & Dyes

• New cosmetics: Minigun, Cutlass, Flintlock Pistol, Pirate Hat, Pirate Shirt, Dragon Horn, Dragon Wing, Bat Wing, and Dragon Tail.
• Added Invisible Hair, Invisible Top, and Invisible Pants.
• Added an additional cosmetic-only cape slot.
• The Pistol is now dyeable.
• Dye and cosmetic coupon descriptions now state their restrictions in colored text, so it's clear at a glance what each one can be used on. Animated gradient and gradient mixing coupons additionally state that you must already own the relevant colors, and that dyes will not work with them.

💬 Chat & UI

• You can now ctrl+click equipped items to show them off in chat, just like inventory items.
• You can now press the inventory lock button to lock and unlock equipment while it's equipped.
• UI elements can now be scaled individually in Advanced UI options.
