There will be an update this coming Friday, 25th May. As well as the numerous fixes and changes listed below, preparation for a new level 100 dungeon will also be patched in and the dungeon will hopefully go live on Saturday after some final testing.


DUNGEON
Dead Man's Peak
The new level 100 dungeon, Dead Man's Peak, will be coming this weekend, along with brand new monsters and bosses, weapons, armor and quests.

Dead Man's Peak is a small island fortress off the coast of Port Plunder. It is the ancestral home of the Blackhand, a clan of ogres ruled by Warlord Krorosh, but a dark force has taken control by none other than Lord Archane himself. Still trapped behind the dimensional rift, he has summoned an avatar in his own image, the Avatar of Archane, and sent it to do his bidding. The avatar and it's henchman Subjugator Mamenoch have enslaved many of the Blackhand and are using them to find and recover the scattered fragments of the Infinitas Rune - the rune that Lord Archane once used to create the Sword of Shadows, eventually sending him mad and crazed for power!

Travel to Dead Man's Peak and defeat the Avatar of Archane and take the Infinitas Rune Fragments before he gains enough to recreate the Sword of Shadows and becomes strong enough to break back through the rift and take revenge on Arcana!

Unlike previous dungeon releases, there will only be a Normal Mode. The difficulty of the dungeon is quite high though, and is for well geared players, so don't expect to complete it without decent gear, a good party, and some strategy.

There are 5 bosses in total, 2 of them being optional and not necessary to progress to the final boss, but they do drop parts of the new armor sets so you will want to do them.

Prince Shilly and several NPCs in Port Plunder have quests for the new dungeon, one of which rewards an Epic Relic, a Legendary quest that rewards the Legendary ring Infinitas, and several daily quests that reward Port Plunder reputation.

Port Plunder reputation is also earned by killing the trash monsters and bosses in the dungeon.


TITLES
Added new monthly title, Elegant.

Tweaked the positioning of Magnificent and Shadowy Butterfly title visual effects so they are a bit lower on the back.


MONSTERS
Relaxed or removed the limit on the amount of mobs you can aggro on level 75+ maps as it was limiting the amount of mobs you could damage with AoE skills. Most level 75+ melee type monsters had their limit removed completely but some ranged types remain the same as they cannot be easily gathered up to AoE anyway. Players should be aware that the old trick of running through a bunch of mobs and only having 3-4 follow you will no longer work, you will aggro everything you come into contact with.

Finally fixed an issue with how monster area of effect skill range is calculated. This doesn't affect that many existing monster skills but you should be wary of some skills of Crystalisk/Rhinestone (Deathspark), Lost Mysterion, Nereus (Pull), Namazu (Pull), Cruel Cletus (Lullaby & Frostbite), Monoxia, and The Excavater (Bomb Plant) that will now reach targets further away as was originally intended.


UI
Message boxes with OK/CANCEL or YES/NO can now be interacted with by using the keyboard. RETURN/Y for Yes, ESC/N for No.

Updated the error messages relating to gold trade/storage limitations to be more descriptive (ie when you try to trade or mail more than the limit, or add or withdraw too much from the warehouse).

Fixed the font issues with the scrolling action text feature - it will now display in the intended font.

Replaced the ugly cartoony font for the cooldown countdown on skill and item icons.


ITEMS
Added new level 100 unique and epic armor set drops for new dungeon, Dead Man's Peak.
Added new level 100 unique and epic weapon drops for Dead Man's Peak.
Added new legendary rings for Dead Man's Peak quest reward.
Added new epic relic for Dead Man's Peak quest reward.
Added the missing artisan patterns for level 100 unique/epic accessories - one of these is required to complete the Wonderland legendary quest for the necklaces. These will drop in Dead Man's Peak.

Von Stein's Cloth Tunic (all versions) Magic Crit stat increased to fix incorrect calculation.

Dragonling face costume pets are now costume sealable and are sealed when you purchase.

Removed all Wanted Papers/Wanted Paper Boxes from inventories as they are no longer needed.

Fixed display of General Medal currency type on vendors, was saying Normal Medal.

Antidote Potion I is now tradable.

Cooking recipe [Recipe] Hooter Surprise max skill gain increased to 360.

Corrected tooltips of
Lion Card IV (O)
Bear Card IV (O)
Tiger Card IV (O)
Snake Card IV (O)
Dragon Card IV (O)
Monkey Card IV (O)
Phoenix Card IV (O)
They grant +20 of their stats, not +18.

Fixed/changed hundreds more item and skill tooltips. If you notice anything odd like ERROR text instead of expected text, please let me know.


BUGS
Fixed a (rarish) server crashing bug relating to monster movement/aggro.

Fixed bug with Exalted Terminus Status giving only 5% discount at vendors, it now gives the correct 10% discount on items purchased for gold.

Fixed a bug causing some armor sets to not activate certain class skills and passive skills that depend on a certain armor type, like Cloth, Mail, Plate. This affected the 7 day level 85 pvp armors and possibly some others.

Fixed some map glitches in Pandahama Island, Sandstorm Desert, Temple of Atlantis/Battle of Atlantis. If you come across any more, like holes in the ground, walking on air, sinking into the ground etc. please let me know the map name and approximate coordinates so I can fix.

Reduced the object count on Colossus Shadowfields, should be less laggy on lower end computers/graphics cards now.

Fixed (increased) casting time of VSM (all modes) Servant and Hauntling skills.
Fixed (increased) casting time of ToAI Summoned Nielium's heal skill.
Fixed (increased) casting time of Nereus pull skill.
Fixed (increased) casting time of Magic Tower Botanist skills.
Fixed (increased) casting time of Magic Tower Ice Lich skills.


BORING STUFF
Launcher, Patcher and Client no longer force you to run them as Administrator although it may be necessary to run the Launcher as Administrator manually if your Iris Online folder is somewhere with restrictive permissions. Should be fine without in most cases though.

Updated the game client to use newer Windows frameworks and removed some unnecessary libraries and other crud. Tested on Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8 and 10, Linux (Wine), Mac OSX (Wine) and all working fine. There is no longer any need to install any vcredist, all is included with the client. Game feels a bit snappier for me under Windows 10 :)

Optimised some game client memory management resulting in a slightly lower memory footprint and more memory returned/freed when moving maps.

Optimised more of the game UI textures and text files/scripts to lower game client memory requirements.

Updated the server software to use newer Windows frameworks to fix some bugs that popped up when the Windows server was updated to a newer version.


AUCTION HOUSE
These notes are for the NEW Auction House at Pierr Kamers, not the Sales Agent. We will switch to this new Auction House soon and the Sales Agent will be removed and destroyed with fire. It's very very fast compared to the old Sales Agent - searches are almost instant and much more accurate and it's much easier to just browse through the categories without entering any search terms if you wish.

Items registered on the auction house are now announced in the Trade channel.
Item listings and tooltips now show the items sealed status.
Item listings and tooltips now show if the item can be used by your character or not (shaded red if unusable).
Mails from the auction house are now notified immediately (sales, returns etc.)
Input focused on search box when you open the auction house or switch to the browse tab.
You can now use the Return or Enter key after typing your search term.
Input focused on bid price when you drag an item to register in the auction tab.
You can now add upto 20 items to the auction house.
You can now bid on upto 20 items on the auction house.
Added sort up/down by Time Remaining, Bid Price, and Buy It Now price.
Added an All category that will display all items on the auction house (the default when opening the auction house).
History tab now displays more of your purchase history and is no longer limited to the last 30 days.
Fixed a client crash if you had an item in your purchase history tab and the player you bought it from deleted their character.
Fixed a client crash if you had an item in your purchase history tab and the item was removed from the game.


SKILLS
Mage/Magician skills that grant Ice Infusion will no longer overwrite Permeating Chill 3's self buff and waste your Advanced Ice Infusion.


PETS
Mumu size increased.

Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter Sprite main attack skill speed and cooldown reduced to, 1.5s with same cooldown (was 2.0s).

Wood Fairy (all types) main attack skill speed and cooldown reduced to 1.433s with same cooldown. (was 1.067s with 20s cooldown).
