Skipped last week, so this devblog covers the last two weeks of progress, plus a look at what’s coming next. A lot has been happening behind the scenes, but right now my main focus is cleaning things up and stabilizing systems before pushing deeper into new content.
There are still a few broken pieces I’m working through (like regions not assigning to guilds and guild upgrades still being non-functional), and I want to get icons caught up before diving into dungeons and new items. This week I’ll be finishing the gathering quests and fixing the hunting quests. I’m off work tomorrow, so I’m hoping for a productive push.
Gameplay & Systems Updates
- Auction House: Detail panel updated. Ironman accounts can no longer set up buy orders.
- Shrine Rotation: Shrine now rotates its skill every 3 hours if not activated.
- Sidebar Improvements: Added a scrollbar for smoother navigation and prepped for the upcoming sidebar update.
- Voting Popup: Still in progress. If you’d like to vote or claim your daily reward, visit: Daily Rewards

- Premium Shop: Tokens can now be used on alts for profile purchases.

Shop & NPC Updates
- Locked items now clearly display their locked status and the quest required to unlock them.
- Some quests now require both gathering/crafting and turning in items.

Notes & Upcoming Work
