V Rising Update Patch Notes – October 24, 2022
- The Servant Resurrection timer has been increased to 10 minutes from 15 seconds (Primarily to tackle PvP scenarios where the short resurrection timer could be abused).
- We have rebalanced how Siege Golem health is calculated and have updated the Siege Golem health settings. By default, Siege Golems will have 250% more health (represented as shield value) than before. The Golem’s health also scales based on the player’s current health to a minimum of 50% of the total health (should the player transforming have less than 50% health, the golem’s shield value will be reduced accordingly).
- The default time-slot setting for when PvP raiding is active has been reduced to 18:00-22:00 local server time from 17:00-23:00.
- The maximum height travel for Mist Trance has been reduced; this fixes an issue where players could reach unwanted heights using this ability.
- The mirror visuals of the Gothic Mirror and the Cabal Mirror have been updated.
- Chandeliers and other rotating buildable objects no longer flicker when “temporal anti-aliasing” and “motion blur” is active.
- The chat message that printed “We are experiencing technical issues on some hardware setups…” every 90 minutes, prompting users to restart their game has been removed periodically.
- Old saves are now automatically backed up when they’re loaded in a new game version. The backed-up save is placed in<Save Directory>\.BACKUP\<Old Game Version>\AutoSave_X.save
- Added rocks north of the Farbane Bear Cave so that players in the future cannot build in such a way that it blocks the cave exit, trapping players. Also added a new route to take if there is an actual castle blocking the normal path.
- Fixed a glitch in the Silverlight Silver Mines that allowed players to jump into the mountain.
- Fixed a bug where some world teleporters could stop working for new players.
Two new Game Presets have been added:
Mad Hunt – PvE
These presets enable three new server settings:
Shuffles the location of all V Blood units and alters their faction to reflect the faction of the V Blood they replace. V Blood units are shuffled using three pre-defined groups based on difficulty level.
When this setting is active, all V Blood units have their portrait and lore hidden in the V Blood Menu until they are defeated.
Note that the technology unlocked to progress is still unlocked in the same order and level, but a new V Blood unit will take its place and level.
Shuffles all V Blood ability rewards randomly across the board. Some units will end up with one ability reward, others with two, and some with zero.
Shuffles the technology rewards of all V Bloods. Technology is shuffled using many pre-defined groups to ensure that players may progress with essential technology regardless of how rewards are shuffled.
: When Shuffle Tech & Shuffle Abilities are activated, some V Bloods may end up with no rewards.
: Enabling any Shuffle settings may only be done when starting a new server. These settings cannot be modified on a running server, nor can these settings be deactivated.
