June Update Notes


Quest Helper Changes

We made some recent changes to the Quest Helper arrow that seemed to hinder more than help, so we've made some more changes and we want your feedback.
  1. If you are using Quest Arrow to track a main storyline quest and accept another main storyline quest - the Quest Arrow should switch to the newly accepted quest
  2. If you are using Quest Arrow to track a main storyline quest and accept a side quest - the Quest Arrow should not switch to the newly accepted side quest
  3. If you are using Quest Arrow to track a side quest and accept a main storyline quest - Quest Arrow will switch to point in the direction of the main storyline quest
  4. If you are using Quest Arrow to track a side quest and accept another side quest - Quest Arrow will switch to point in the direction of the newly accepted side quest
This should solve the issue of the Quest Helper not recognizing that you picked up a new quest.



Amber!

The chance of getting Amber from the harvest of White Tiger Lily, Deadly Ninja Fig, King Parsley, Red Bell Pepper and Red Huckleberries has been slightly increased, and White Tiger Lily still has the best chance of rewarding you with Amber on Elder Harvest. 

A new transmutation recipe is available from Shane MacGobhann in Avalon. 

Amber Dust and another mystery reagent are available from bosses like the Pendragon, Morganthe and Starburst Spider as well as bosses in Waterworks and Briskbreeze towers. 


You can garden for the pure Amber, or defeat bosses for the ingredients for the recipe.

Chapter 5, just for the children!

Not really. In fact, dont let your children read it.
Yup, chapter five is up and ready for your deluge of definite and unwanted inquiries and criticism.
Nah, I'm kidding. Criticism is welcome, and I'll be more than happy to clear up any confusion regarding plot.
