| Youthful Indiscretion, posted on Tue Aug 19 09:56:59 2025 | | Posted by: Kake | | Category: General | | A witch named Brienna has taken up residence on Wall Street West in Sto Lat. Rumour has it that she can help you reverse any unfortunate tattoo-related decisions you might have made while inebriated (or even while stone-cold sober). |
| Making Everything Groovy, posted on Tue Aug 12 12:25:51 2025 | | Posted by: Kadath | | Category: Guilds | I've made a few adjustments to the warrior command "wildswing". This includes fixing a pretty significant bug affecting weapon damage, making the command be a bit smarter about choosing damage types, making it interact a bit more nicely with different numbers of opponents, and one or two other smaller tweaks.
The overall effect should be that wildswing feels more consistent across different weapons now, and feels a bit smoother to use in general.
Enjoy!

If you had a layered set of damage mitigations the combat code would sometimes credit the wrong layer as having stopped the most damage.
This is now fixed.

| A Fresh Coat Of Pain, posted on Sat Aug 9 08:48:33 2025 | | Posted by: Kadath | | Category: Guilds | A new assassin-only command called "coat" has been added. It can be learned at 75 levels of covert.items.poisons and can be learned from a teacher at each of the four specialisations' headquarters. The command allows assassins to coat a suitable weapon with a new type of substance called a blade coating. Coatings have a wide variety of effects and many of them will require some experimentation to discover.
Use "help coat" for the basics of the command. Applicator clothing is available to purc...Read The Rest Of This Entry |
| Every Witch Way, posted on Wed Aug 6 14:32:12 2025 | | Posted by: Stygian | | Category: Guilds | This month's Bugfix Weekend concentrated mostly on the the world of witches. Below are some of the more noteworthy changes:
* NPCs that are both vined and fighting will now show up in the room as "fighting amidst a bunch of vines" rather than just "fighting".
* Attempting to attack fireflies, blue lights and moths (i.e. the magical light-emitting summons) is now PK-checked. In other words, you can only try to attack them if either they belong to you or they belong to someone who you're able...Read The Rest Of This Entry |
