Full Release Update Patch Notes (Discussion Thread)

Not exactly pertaining to future story or game mechanic stuff, but I thought it was interesting and some of you might think it’s neat.

I indeed do think that’s interesting! Thank you very much, sir!

Glad you liked it

Can you maybe ask vetex about “Why did The dark sea itself not absorb the remaining sea clusters?”

That probably falls into spoiler territory considering Vetex has already said how something regarding how the Dark Sea works is a spoiler

New dragon lore + grass will return to normal after Yuletide



Hyper-realistic bear is real!
AO officially has zero artsyle!

its not really hyper realistic, not any more than the whales

I mean the style is more in the islands, settlements, weapons, magics, ships, character design, and stuff of that nature.

Come to think of it, this might become a problem.
As if criminal NPCs weren’t bad enough, now we have to deal with bears that’ll get angry for no reason. They’ll either be pushovers, or annoying.

Either way, it’l be harder for newer players to enjoy wilderness islands. That is assuming you can even find a place to put a bear on the tiny islands like Ierochos.

I have faith that it can be done right, but only if the northern Bronze Sea islands don’t have animals, since they just wouldn’t fit.

they have 600 hp its not that bad

That seems fair.

They cannot withstand your average mage

AO bears when I stand on top of something
(They have no ranged moves)

Yeah, they’ll probably be pushovers. Sharks have about the same stats I’d assume, but sharks have a dynamic environmental advantage.

So who gave the gift of magic to dragons?

Probably Hecate.
Waaaaaay before her death

probably always had it
