1. Are you going to make any changes to the Bushido ability Evasion in Publish 43?
John "Wilki" Wilkinson, Community Coordinator:
Yes, the following changes will be made in Publish 43:

  • Evasion duration will scale with your Bushido skill. Range is 3-6 second duration, with a 2 second bonus if your bushido is above GM and both tactics and anatomy are GM or better
  • Evasion parry modifier will scale with your Bushido skill. Range is 16-40%, with a 10% bonus if your bushido is above GM and both tactics and anatomy are GM or better

2. I missed out on getting one of those special coins from the Castle rat invasion. Will I have another chance at these?
Sherry the Mouse:
*squeak* I think the rats have gone back down into the sewers…


3. Whenever I use stealth, I seem to be passively revealed by other players almost every time. Are there any plans to change that?
John "Wilki" Wilkinson, Community Coordinator:
Yes, we’ve made some significant changes to passive detect in Publish 43. We have adjusted passive and targeted detect hidden for both players and monsters so stealthers aren't as easy to detect. For more information about Stealth changes and other changes in Publish 43 please check here.


4. Are we going to have another Shard of the Dead?
Anne "Silvani" Pitkin, Assistant Producer:
We are indeed! Shard of the Dead II will be a wonderfully frightening experience on Halloween. This test shard will be full of spooky fun, with some new surprises. There will be crazy Dev Team appearances and other various forms of insanity.


5. Are we doing anything for Halloween on production shards?
Anne "Silvani" Pitkin, Assistant Producer:
Yes, besides Shard of the Dead II, we’ll also have some scary surprises in store for regular shards! The Festival of Fright will be a game wide event on all shards. There will be some special treats given out during this time, however be wary of your local graveyards! This event will last one to two weeks.
