Albion Online Patch Notes – July 5, 2022
Crystal League Changes
Time slots for Crystal League battles have been updated with this patch, for non-lethal 5v5 and for Levels 1-3 20v20. Level 2 and 3 tokens for both the Lethal and non-Lethal League can once again be purchased from the Energy Manipulator, and old Level 2 and 3 tokens can be used again. Season-bound Level 2 and 3 tokens can be salvaged for their Silver purchase price, while Level 4 and 5 tokens are tradable again.
Quality-of-Life Improvements
This patch continues to add to the significant quality-of-life improvements introduced since the Into the Fray update, with new changes including:
Laborer Journals can now be purchased in bulk
- Active gathering yields are now displayed in the Character Details UI
- Daily Production Bonuses (from Dynamic Events) are now included in the Local Production Bonuses UI on the zone map
- Sounds created by remote players in Cities, particularly chests and player/mount footsteps, have been reduced

Combat Balance Changes
Improvements have been made to some of the reworked Magic Staff abilities, for example:
Grudge (Cursed Staffs) Damage has been increased, and the Cursed Tar hit delay reduced
- Thorns (Nature Staffs) area Damage has been increased, and the Rejuvenating Flower growth interval reduced
Additionally, Corrupted Dungeons have seen adjustments, with Mephits made more effective at preventing players from kiting excessively. Some heavily used weapons in this game mode have also been toned down to diversify the meta here.
