We will be distributing the UltraRare bonus items associated with the purchase of a 6K or 10K COTO Pack during the event the week of November 17th. Haunted Voodoo Doll (6K COTO Pack) Undead Jackalope Doll (10K COTO Pack) Thank you for supporting Shroud of the Avatar!...
I tested this a few times yesterday and couldn't the issue. However, one time I did notice that if my camera was pulled back fairly far that there was a "dead spot" in the middle of the reaper that I couldn't select, but when I zoomed in a little that dead spot went away and could select any...
With this most recent patch, the Undead Jackalope has now agreed to remain visible! The Sales (and UltraRare event) will be extended through [COLOR=#00b3b3]November 12th[/COLOR] to allow for everyone to check out the Voodoo Doll and Jackalope in Hometown.
[QUOTE="Morkin, post: 1383025, member: 421415"]this forum too... your picture is lost :)[/QUOTE] I'm not sure what you mean, is the image not showing for you?
We have just deployed a patch that brings the fully functional Haunted UltraRare Dolls into the game. They will be placed in Hometown in about 40 minutes. This patch completes the final prep for the Crown Store (Sub Reward and Login Rewards items) Have a Spooky Halloween! Keep an EYE...
I wasn't able to get the pictures and verbiage put together before I crashed and slept for 11 hours. Even yesterday took me forever to get caught up. I have updated both the 10K and 6K listings... [URL]https://www.shroudof... I re-wrote the verbiage and put better formatting in place. I'm...

There is more to it than that. Using Install to Play does not optimize the game for GeForce's desired SLA and may have performance issues (which is a bad look for GeForce and the game being played). A service game (such as ours), apply patches on a regular basis (we patch on average 3 times a...
[QUOTE="Alley Oop, post: 1382704, member: 15071"]if we want to keep it consistent we have a bunch of player item display names and store entries to change too[/QUOTE] I certainly love consistency! :) Also, I'll say that, in general, we should be adhering to modern American English for our game...

[SIZE=3][B]We are integrating Unity's remediation process into our builds. Please note that the vulnerability requires your local PC to be compromised by malware (etc), external to any Unity application installed. In addition, please see the below for changes that have been made to your system...
There may be circumstances that are causing the ones you placed to not function properly.. Without the /bug information we cannot investigate. Using /bug while standing in front of one of the symptomatic ones then pasting the info here will give us a ton of data.
We were ready to deploy the sale end patch, however Steam seems to be having some issues (we cannot upload the patch to them, the partner API and websites are down, and DownDetector confirms). This should not affect game play as 99.9% of our players do not use Steam. If the Steam outage...
Thanks for the report! Issue # 72719 In the future, it would be great if you included the "/loc" information with your bug report. (While still at the problem area, type "/loc" in your in-game chat and it will give you some details that can help me. Those details are immediately copied for you...
Only one can be active at a time per account. Even to update you card expiration, you would be canceling and re-establishing the sub. (This is because we do not store your card info at all).

[USER=2872]@ConjurerDrago... Since we cannot shift the existing off-grid dungeon rooms, I created a set of "half length hallway" pieces (4m long instead of 8m long) . Please let us know if this workaround fills the gap ;) The new hall pieces are available via a recipe and blueprint on the...
Thanks for the report and follow-up! I'm glad you were able to make use the lot how you want, but I'll take a look anyway and see if there need to be improvements in the area. Issue #72685
Thanks for the report and addition! Issue #72674 I didn't look into it yet, but I suspect these NPC has two specific keywords/"keyword sets" with overlapping alternate keywords in each set. Then when you use one keyword it fails because there's more than one set available.
Thanks for the report! That ore node definitely shouldn't spawn within an invisible collider. I'll take a look and modify the collider, the visuals that imply a collider, and/or the location of the node. Issue #72659
When the login reward goes active, players may note a server message indicating that the instance will close in 60 minutes. Once seen, if the client is logged out and logged back into, the new login reward should be delivered. This month's reward, A Studious Squirrel Statue:...

Thanks! Was an odd one, but I now see what happened. (like I described on the livestream) While I was in there, I tweaked the gap on the door. Glad you noticed! :D

Over the last week we have been working to get all the content ready so it would go live with R141. We built a QA Server patch for public testing before we finalized the content package, however the content did not pass our internal quality checks before opening the QA server to the playerbase...
[QUOTE="Raven Swiftbow, post: 1381267, member: 122613"]I know this one was hopefully resolved, but alas, I recently picked up this quest and my Journal Entry still includes the Blocken instead of Broken. In the journal description it reads: "An Orator from the League of Skulls wants me to use...

Greetings! The game can use a range of RAM based on a few factors. Typically, I have seen it use from 4GB to 16GB RAM depending on what is happening. For instance I loaded into Castle Atos and was using 10.5GB and then went to Fishing Expedition and it dropped to 10.2GB (of course I am in the...
The FAQ for this along with an accurate chart will be on the website. We have an intern on the team who has begun to collate all of the informational sticky posts in the forums that will need to migrate to the website. We intend to make information and things like this easier to find and be...
I've made a broader statement here: [URL]https://www.shroudof... But to also address your specific concern, SotA does not have a 'traditional' end game since it is designed as an Ultima, so as players progress through higher levels, advancement is slower by design (same as can be seen in most...
We would like to address the recent questions and concerns regarding Double XP (2XP) events. Due to ongoing issues related to 2XP including botting and extreme hoarding, where players wait for 2XP to complete actions in bulk, we've decided not to activate 2XP during this release. While...

Alley is correct, make sure you loot Imps. Arguably the letter from an imp is the "most important" because it's the one you have to work hardest for. The other four letters are "easy" in the sense that they are all simply lying around in randomized locations in that same area. It may be notable...
Since we failed to activate the Deed Upgrade sale at the start of R138 (it was activated about a day late), we are extending the sale for 24 hours. The Sale End Patch is scheduled to go live at Midnight (11:59pm CT) 6/10/2025
Of course bugs are a priority... After the bugs are sorted out I will start adding rooms that are missing across sets, new rooms and if there are updates I can do without impacting the existing footprint of a room, and will not affect existing deco surfaces then I will consider them. In the...
I wasn't involved in the creation of this quest, scene, or recipe, and don't know the ramifications of making any changes. I'm inclined to leave it as-is and call it "as designed." (...But I wish the original creators gave the recipes different names to help them seem less like a bug or...

Not technically a bug. The walls are there to ensure that: A: The VFX do not bleed into any adjacent rooms in the dungeon B: To ensure that if a player's camera finds itself in a position to see into the lava tubes, they will not see other rooms in the void The 3d preview is an unintended...

I'll take a look. Issue #72524 [USER=2872]@ConjurerDrago... , so you see this issue only in Castle Atos, or in every city while using a German game client? For example do you see the issue in Ardoris, Battle of Solace Bridge, or Eastreach Gap?
Our ever increasingly misnamed May Update Stream is going to be delayed until Thursday at 6pm CT. We will be streaming from Scottie's office, so it promises to be a good one with peeks at what we are working on!
