    I was thinking about the clock towers.

    It'd be interesting if they were like musical instruments that chimed on the hour.. except people could set their own 10-note tune.

    Then I thought about a town full of these, and I was like, no.

    like the town tune in animal crossing?

    might be able to tie that functionality to pot deco only, not when placed on a lot.

    Well, the other problem would be that chiming on the Earth hour means they only chime at midnight in-game. If anything, they should only chime at the :30, which would be noon.

    If they chime ont the game hour, then they are actually going off every 2.5 minutes, which would be far worse.

    Just make them chime at Sunrise, Noon, Sunset.... DONE, enough with the "on the hour" crap. And for that matter, make the damn grandfather clocks do the same thing PLEASE. :D

    The chests are not being reactivated. The only change is Superstition Canyon and Sanctus Spine will be getting waves that get increasingly faster (for the first several waves, after which they hit a "maximum respawn rate" of about 30 seconds).

    The new VFX look Amazing, you guys have been doing a wonderful job on these.. BUT I've seen these literally shut down computers, players need a way to turn off spell VFX.

    Are these supposed to be hidden, or in plain sight? We're kind of having issues finding them.

    I don't think they're secreted away, and my guess is that they are supposed to be discovered in some cases by exploring the cities, but it's not like they are hiding. Check Alchemy shops and locations/NPCs related to what they sell.

    @oplek For near-future reference, you will find these automatons outdoors at their unique merchant stall and wagon in each of the listed cities. In Ardoris they'll be past the Oracle Confirmatory. In Central Brittany they'll be near the Titan of Truth Statue by the docks. In Resolute they'll be in the back of the market area. In Aerie they'll be outside of the Magic Shop. Lastly, in Owl's Head they'll be in front of the Crafting Pavilion. You can find a discovery at each location.
