Patch Notes: 12/12/24 — EDYN Steam update #30019

We're releasing the patch a day early as we've made a number of fixes that we want to deploy ASAP. We've been busy this week working on mostly backend systems related to beginner protection, healing and incoming quest/XP mechanics. Gameplay Beginner protection will now be applied to newly registered players on all worlds. This protection will last for 24 hours on Classic Worlds and 12 hours on Speed Worlds. Going forward, we can easily tune these numbers subject to player feedback. Players under beginner protection cannot be the target of any mission types during this window. The protected player can freely raid Scuttlers, but cannot send missions to other players unless they want to exit protection early. If the protected player wishes to opt out, they can target an external player with a mission at which point they will be prompted with a confirmation to end beginner protection early. ...
