OTClient 1.02 Update

June 17th 2019

Fixed a bug that caused hotkeys to break after a client restart if a hotkey was set to say a single number.

Fixed a bug that could cause chat tabs to keep blinking red (as if there is a new message) even though the user already checked the message.

It is now possible to tag someone in a chat using @name. This should be especially useful in help chat when answering a specific persons question.

Fixed the tooltip for minimap always displaying as ctrl+s.

Further optimized the battle list. Also added a "slow mode" option for battle list sorting. This should be used by people with slower pcs that are having fps issues with many creatures on screen. It could also be useful in large events such as the sea demon fight. In general, using the "fast" option should be good enough, but I've added slower options just to be safe.

Fixed a bug that prevented the ignore/white list from saving. In addition, putting a player on ignore will automatically enable the ignore list (previously you would have to manually activate the list). A bunch of tooltips have also been added to make things more clear.

Moved the deathzot item border images out of the ui folder to make sharing ui skins easier.

Adjusted how far you need to drag a chat tab before it swaps positions with another tab. This should make it easier to drag tabs to the far right.

Mini-Update

June 16th 2019

More areas in the Abbadon realm have been opened for players to explore.

Fixed the density of RoA Hydras in a couple caves. They are now open for players to hunt in again.

Fixed an issue with !pvpsafe not working correctly with summons. It should now be possible to hit a players summons if you have the player targeted and it should now be possible to hit a player if you have one of their summons targeted.

Buffed target dummies. Hopefully overpowered ppl wont kill them anymore :(

June 14th 2019

Abbadon Realm (post 2nd rebirth) changes:

- Added hunting npcs.
- Added hourly bosses. (Make sure to stop by the Boss Hunter in the mall to update your minimap!)
- Added some password stones and other hidden things.
- Fixed unstable rifts dying extremely fast compared to normal monsters.
- Added an extra teleport rune to the jungle.

Other changes/additions:

Added a command !globalboost to check the time left on global experience/uber boosts.

Father Times final phase no longer pierces magic walls forcing every team to contain dedicated support vocs to keep their team alive.

Your current hunting task is now displayed in server log when you log in.

Fixed a bug that would caused wonky warlord interactions when dual-wielding melee weapons.

---

Father Time rewards will now be mailed to your depot if you did not have enough cap to carry them.

Quality of Life Changes:

---

- It is now possible to click-use ammo to set it as your active type. This allows ammo to be used directly from your backpacks rather than having to equip it in the ammo slot.

- Smelting ore now produces Runic Orbs rather than raw equipment.

- Summons are now marked with a green shield to make them easily identifiable.

---

Reward Shop Changes:

---

Added a couple new amulets similar to Death's Remedy but for the other 3 primary equipment stats.
- Death's Onslaught: +20% Attack
- Death's Aegis: +20% Armor
- Death's Carnage: +20% Damage (The old effect of this amulet has been removed)

Immortals Revenge: now provides +20% to equipment bonuses (up from 10%) to keep it in line with the rest of the amulets.

Added a Mighty Smelting Hammer. Can be used to smelt ore directly from your backpack.

Father Time Jr now offers the ability to swap your vocation(s). Doing so will reset your skills back to 0.

Tier 9000 Backpack now merges gold/plats/runic orbs, has the backpack of looting effect, alerts you when an uber monster spawns in the zone you are hunting in, and has 200 slots (not all slots will be visible if you aren't using the OTClient)

Premium now grants +10% chance to critically loot Runic Orbs.

Guild Cookies now also grant +20% chance to critically loot Runic Orbs in addition to their original effect.

Backpack of Munitions, Runecrafters Satchel, Holy Falcon, and Gilded Catalyst have been removed.

---

Other Random Changes:

---

In order to comply with new OTServList rules, a limit of 4 clients per ip has been introduced.

Added a couple announcements for some era firsts such as leveling/equipment tiers.

Hourly bosses will now drop a loot orb upon death.

Candy/Canes may now be used after first rebirth. The level limit is 10,000 or 90% of the highest level player (whichever is higher). Rebirth characters have a base effective level of 10,000, this applies to both the use of candy and the highest level threshold so if you are amongst the first to rebirth, you won't be able to use candy to instantly get back up to 10k.

After defeating Father Time (2nd rebirth) players will be able to go back in time to the land of Abbadon. This area is a throwback to another one of Deaths servers (Rise of Abbadon).
For those of you who did play RoA you will recognize the majority of this map as it is RoA in its entirety. With that said, there are some twists that Death added back when we were working on XDC together so there should be plenty of opportunity to explore new areas for both old and new players.
