- U24: The Raging Tides - 15 May 2018
https://thumbs.gfycat.com/AdolescentSpiritedEarwig-size_restricted.gif In this update we take a look on the flow of the battle, to make it more engaging and skill-based. Previously, when taking too much damage, Players had to retreat and wait to regenerate health. This limited the pace of the engagements and promoted overly cautious play. This time, we're introducing instant Health Potions and Power Potions that drop from killed enemies during combat. These give the Player constant boost of health and weapon power, as long as he kills enemies efficiently. Let's get on with that steamrolling! Here are some battle flow improvements we introduced: Health Potions will now drop from monsters when Player is not at full health. Player health regeneration has been reduced and its delay increased. All special weapon powers now recharge in 60 seconds. Power Potions (previously orbs) now drop thre…
