Patch 1.5

Template:Stub Patch 1.5, the Reforged In Flame phase 2 patch, is currently in open testing.

Proposed Changes

General

• 5% of all gold looted now goes directly to your guild's warehouse.
• Root powers have been readjusted to 1.5 to 0.2s cast time, a duration of 20s to 40s and a cooldown of 20 seconds between power ranks 0 and 40.
• Personal Damage Absorber powers now absorb 1,000 damage, up from 750.
• Damage buffs have been rescaled to 10+0.75 of power rank. JM damage buffs will all be +20% damage, GM damage buffs will all be +40% damage.
• Travel Stance's movement speed component has been increased to 60% (from 50%).
• The Running skill is no longer modified by any attributes. It was formerly modified by Intelligence, Dexterity and Constitution.
• Water Bucket's healing effect has been changed to a % Heal over Time. It has a duration of 1 minute and an interval of 10 seconds. This means that it longer scales off of Int, Spirit or Power Damage.
• Single Target Resistance Buffs now stack with other resist power types (Group & Chants but NOT other Single Targets).
• Single Target Resistance Buff cast times and durations normalized. Their cast times are now 2 seconds (from 3-4s) and a duration of 60 seconds (from 900s).
• Group Resistance Buffs now stack with other resist power types (Single Target & Chants but NOT other Group buffs).
• Group Resistance Buffs train cap at PR-1 and grant +25 Resistance.
• Group Resistance Buff cast times and durations normalized. Their cast times are now 1 second (from 3-5s) and a duration of 180 seconds (from 900+s)
• Area of Effect powers will be moving away from their classic ruleset. Rather than "Group Friendly" or "Excludes Caster", Area of Effect powers will be changed to support the "Ignores 10 Allies" mechanic. This means that when an AoE power selects targets, X allies caught within its radius will be omitted regardless of to whose group they belong. An ally is a Nation Member.
• Area of Effect powers with effect radii between 28 and 32 have been normalized to 40 units. Ex: Call Lightning (formerly 32) now has an equivalent radius to Hedge of Thorns (40).
• Area of Effect powers now hit up to 60 player targets (from 7). The first 5 players hit by an AoE will take 100% damage and the remaining 55 targets will take 50% damage. This will show as 2 damage entries to the first 5, and one damage entry to the rest. Effects such as DoTs or Debuffs will apply evenly to all targets.
• The exceptions to this change are:

Fury

• Call the Blizzard - Maximum Targets: 10 (Unmitigated)
• Call Storm - Maximum Targets: 10 (Unmitigated)

Necromancer

The +7 Tier of Affixes is the tier directly below the pre-Obsidian/Bloodstone tier, eg +15 Prefix Resists (previously +25), +7 Defense, +4 Melee Resistance, +8 Constitution Suffix, etc. These affixes ALL cost 1 Agate and no other resources.
• Agate may be found by defeating unique monsters.
• We are working to solidify the +9 Tier of Affixes. This includes +9 Defense, +25 (previously 35) spell resistance, +5.5 Melee Resistance, +12 Stat Bonus, etc.
• Armor Affixes (Defense, Physical Resists, etc.) will cost 5 Obsidian or Bloodstone.

Healer

• The Restoration skill is now modified 100% by Spirit rather than 60% Int 40% Spirit. This will help differentiate support and damage builds. We expect the heal output of Intelligence heavy Healers to be reduced by around 15%.

• Blessed Healing has been rescaled. It now train caps at PR-40 rather than PR-20. The new PR-20 will be less powerful than the current PR-20, while the new GM will be more powerful than the current PR-20.

The result is more front loaded damage, but less harrassment/shutting down of stealthers and using it mid combat is more costly, especially as a follow up from Stalk (100 Stamina) to Backstab (50 Stamina).
• Buchinine Poison now also applies a Ground to its target for 45 Seconds (Blackmask) and 90 Seconds (Assassin & Thief).

That means the mine opens at 12 and closes at 12:30. While 12:00 to 13:00 means it opens at 12 and closes and 1PM.

Lore Charter Changes

"Over the Testing Period we'll be unlocking the features for an update to the Lore on ARAC system that emphasizes the new system being about content, interesting choices and unique playstyles. The old system is replaced with a new less complicated, more empowering and much more fun version of the old system where each charter feels unique to the others, and more importantly, to ARAC. We hope you find the new system to be an improvement on the unpopular previous system!" - Starfish
