• All cool downs have been removed from refresh potions. “Total” refresh potions have now been converted to “Greater” refresh potions which will provide more refresh than standard refresh potions.
• Weapon effect: Hit stamina leech is now subject to diminishing returns based on max player stamina.
• Mysticism: Increased Cleansing Winds healing power reduction based on curses. Cleansing Winds will always heal for maximum potential when the target is the caster. Cleansing Winds power will now scale based on the number of targets when healing targets that are not the caster.
• Chivalry: Divine Fury stamina regenerated decreased to 2.5x duration from 4x duration.

• Neither the attacker nor the defender can immediately use animal form after using riding swipe.
• Adjusted misaligned housing regions in the Zento area of Tokuno.
• Character Statues are now handled better during house customization:
o If the statue’s location is clear, the statue will be restored to its original position
o If the statue cannot fit where it was, but a deed can, the statue will remain as a deed, but be correctly locked down
o Otherwise, the statue deed remains in the house moving crate
• Secured containers in houses are no longer reset to “owner only” security after house customization
• The Hearth of the Home Fire, the Fountain of Life, and Ballot Boxes are no longer turned to face south after house customization
• Soul Stones will now be placed back in their original location after house customization (if the location remains clear)
• Players will no longer receive the system message “You cannot access this house while it is being edited” while customizing their house
• In some cases, expired vendors would create bugged stacks of gold coins in house moving crates. They now deliver bank checks instead

• Vendors that run out of funds and go to the house moving crate would remain permanently in their “grace period”, never allowing the house owner to claim them
o The grace period now counts down hours normally instead of always remaining at 167 hours
o The house owner can claim the vendor’s goods if the vendor owner does not claim them during the 7-day grace period
• All house co-ownership is now account based
o Existing co-ownership lists will be automatically updated such that only one character from any unique account will remain
o All characters on the same account as any house co-owner will also have full co-owner access to that house
o When a character becomes a co-owner of a house, all other characters on the same account will be removed from the house’s friends list
o Previously, one character could only be co-owner of up to 10 houses. There are now no restrictions on how many houses a single account can be co-owner of
o Houses are now limited to having 10 co-owner accounts instead of 10 co-owner characters

o You are still allowed to initiate trades when you are refusing incoming trade requests
• Pets will now be “rescued” if a server reverts to a backup during which the pet was out in the world
o During server maintenance, these pets will be teleported to a safe location
o This prevents the pets from being killed, or losing loyalty and going wild
o When their owners log in:
The rescued pets will teleport to the player, if the player has control slots available
Otherwise, the pets will go to the owner’s stables for later retrieval
