Nuova patch per Runes of Magic

• Introducing the first iteration of the Guild Castles

• • Guild Castles can be accessed through the teleport gates in Varanas and the Obsidian Fortress
  • Guilds have access to extensive storage facilities and can place furniture.

Changes

• The Combat calculation formula has been revised.
  • Stamina to Defence conversion changed
    All characters defence rating is based on their stamina attribute. Originally, all conversion values were identical for all classes. Now we have changed it according to the classes’ roles.

    The original damage calculation of skills was based on a percentage and point system. The new system is taking a few more factors into consideration like weapon DPS and casting time (e.g. magical attacks).
  • Chance to Hit
    The chance to hit calculation has been revised to make fights against opponents of a higher or lower level more challenging.
  • Changes in Skills
    We also made a few adjustments to several skills to fit them better into the new system.
  • The full details can be found below.
