# Dragonstone Changelogs (1.20) #2 ### ⋘⋘⋘ Patches & Hotfixes ⋙⋙⋙ ##### August 1st, 2023 ##### **Summary** We have a lot of miscellaneous changes this time around! ### Server Changes ##### General - Disabled Mob Griefing in the End Dimension. - Increased animal farm entity limit from 30 --> 50 - Added autobow buffs to Water Affinity description in **/mastery**. - Increased Air Affinity EXP gain by approximately 40% ##### Dungeons - Party size limits removed from all dungeons! - Forest Sprites no longer attack players. - Forest Sprites now heal and buff the nearest mob. - (Buff duration scales with dungeon difficulty) - Recoded mob leveling system to be much more efficient, flexible, and easier for developers to work with. - This will accelerate development of future dungeons using the new difficulty system as mob levels are no longer hardcoded and can be set dynamically by the dungeon. - Mob portals won’t spawn as many mobs at higher difficulty levels to reduce client lag. Mobs have very slightly more HP to compensate. - Mobs lvl 150 and above now have their movement speed capped. - Nariel's particle beam now has a max length of 24 blocks to reduce lag. - Reworked Outpost boss scaling and loot tables to allow for infinite difficulty and reward scaling. - Items to increase dungeon difficulty will be added within the next few days. - Reduced immunity frames on all dungeon bosses from 0.25 sec --> 0.1 sec - Further reduced the network lag created by Nariel's blessing beam when many players are present in a dungeon. - Rebalanced outpost boss loot tables in preparation for the release of the difficulty increaser item. - Added more forge items to the boss chest loot table. - Shard drops from the boss have been slightly reduced to account for cooldown reset farming. - Updated loot table info here: [https://wiki.dragonstone.pw/books/the-dungeon-codex/page/ds2-the-outpost](https://wiki.dragonstone.pw/books/the-dungeon-codex/page/ds2-the-outpost "https://wiki.dragonstone.pw/books/the-dungeon-codex/page/ds2-the-outpost") - Added new Dungeon Cooldown Reset items! - These can be made at the forge with shards. - They are used to reset your dungeon cooldowns so you can get forge materials faster. - \[Bugfix\] Fixed bug where the corrupted warden shows it's tier twice in the death message. - \[Bugfix\] Dungeon mobs should no longer despawn when far away. ##### Dragon Forge - Most Tier I and Tier II forge items no longer require shards to make. - Material costs of most forge items have been tweaked slightly to account for this change. - Many of the smaller forge GUIs have been updated to look cleaner. - Improved auto-fire on all forge bows, fire rate now smoothly scales with water affinity when holding right click. - Previously you would have to spam right click to take advantage of the increased fire rate granted by water affinity because holding right click only triggers 4 times per second. Now holding right click will send a trigger 20 times per second. - All forge bows can (finally) be reloaded at any time by pressing **F** - If you want to change this keybind, edit the "Swap Item With Offhand" keybind in your settings. - Flying with the Raven Wings now makes particle trails again. - Some forge materials are now interactible, meaning you can place them on item frames and armor stands. - This also fixes the issue where you can't open ender chests while holding these materials. - Affects the following materials: - Aetherite Ore - Aetherian Steel - Starlite Alloy - Dragon Shard - Dragon Shard Dust - More will be fixed soon! (They are more complex) - Forge bows and wands now display fire rate in shots per second rather than cooldown per shot. - Focus Gems have been updated to reflect the above change, you may need to unsocket your focus gems to fix their stats. - Red Aether Focus no longer decreases wand fire rate. - Aether Wand projectiles now have slight seeking capabilities and will home in on the targeted enemy. - (Can be helpful when dealing with phantoms) - \[Bugfix\] Aether Axe & Angelic Axe should now work on cherry trees. - \[Bugfix\] Fixed broken "Void Negation" passive ability on the Void Dragon Helmet. ##### Known Issues - None. --- ### ⋘⋘⋘ Dragonforge Changes ⋙⋙⋙ Please move these items around in your inventory to trigger an item update! ##### **Item** - List **Developer Comments**: Comment --- ##### **True Aether Bow** - PvP Damage Nerf increased from 10% --> 20% **Developer Comments**: Players have been reporting that this weapon is a bit too powerful in PvP combat after the rework. We feel that a slight pvp damage nerf should help balance things out. --- ##### **True Dragon's Talon** **(Paragon Item)** - Reduced lightning cooldown from 25 sec --> 10 sec **Developer Comments**: This paragon item is due for a rework due to power creep from other forge items. In the meantime we've reduced the cooldown of the lightning ability. --- ### ⋘⋘⋘ Forge Recipe Changes ⋙⋙⋙ See what's changed below! ##### **Most Items** - **No longer requires Dragon Shards to make.** --- ##### **Raven Wings** - No longer requires 256x Experience Bottles - Now requires 128x Feathers - Now requires 128x Black Dye **Developer Comments**: Why did I make this item cost 4 stacks of experience bottles? Those are so annoying to get lol --- ##### **Mendstones** All Mendstones have been made significantly easier and quicker to forge!

Whoops!
