WASD Controls!
WASD controls are now available as an option! This update might not be up your alley, so don't worry, Classic controls remain available.
WASD is a way for us to reach out to the broader MMORPG audience, allowing players who might not have tried PristonTale yet, or dropped it due to clunky controls, to give it a try! We believe it's a major step forward in accessibility, especially with the hundreds of reports throughout the years about the clunkiness of controls and accessibility for new players.
In addition to WASD controls, the starting experience is fully overhauled and now includes a complete player guidance system for both Tempskron/Morion. It introduces you to controls, potion usage, chatrooms, navigating, warpgates, skill tiers, the Fusion system and so much more.
Domination Sylers PVP
The new PVP boss now appears at 01:00, 09:00 and 17:00 server time in Land of Neuren [H]. Meaning it's a level 120+ exclusive PVP boss.
Domination Sylers has a fixed drop of 1 item per kill with a dice roll system, this however puts his drop table mostly towards highly sought after items. With 3 spawns per day that's 3 good items to compete for. Think of Legendary Souls, hard to get Rare Souls, Premiums, 120/150 items of higher rarity and more.
When you're in-range of Domination Sylers you're forced into PVP mode, stay away if you're not into any PVP action. This rule also applies to Vengeful Saints from now on. To be eligible for a roll chance on loot you need a minimum of 30 seconds of active PVP mode to avoid anyone cheesing the mechanic.
We'd like to hear feedback about how we've set up Domination Sylers, its drops and spawn times, keeping it open for future improvements.
Personal Shop & Aging Safety
Two new systems are in place to protect your valuables. In your general game settings you can now enable/disable a Copper safety check. This safety check alerts you when aging beyond Age 8+ if you're putting in a Copper Ore or not. Disabling this safety is at your own risk, but keep your valuable items safe after a long grind and don't accidentally forget your Copper!
Personal Shop also has two new settings in the general game settings tab. You can set your purchase price limit, meaning you're able to set a Gold/Coin limit to ensure you're not accidentally overspending.
Additionally, when purchasing items from another player that sells the same item for variable pricing, you get an alert to ensure you're buying for the correct price. This is a way to prevent a minefield of Sheltoms containing an incorrectly priced one. Once you've accepted that the shop has various pricing, you're then able to purchase anything in the player's shop at your own risk. Meaning it's a one-time check when you first purchase from the shop, it won't repeatedly tell you on every item you're buying.
Final Words
The patch also contains multiple bug fixes, quality of life improvements like an FPS limiter configuration and more.
