New Patch

By the end of this week, a new patch would be ready for use. With this patch, a considerable skill-up bonus is added to fighting mobs, and in particular, the speed of skill-ups is three times as quick as compared to fighting other players. Meanwhile the speed of skilling up all magic schools is doubled. This means that all skills connected to combat are advancing forward three times as fast as before, and magic school six times as fast when fighting monsters.
This patch favours new players so that they could catch up with the veterans more quickly. The search and fighting of monsters are also planned to be more attractive and then more open field PvP should be possible.
Underlying problems are solved in this patch with battlespikes and damage adjustor. The hotfix released last week was for temporary use.
The development group is working hard to prepare for the next free expansion of Darkfall, which is currently scheduled for release in October. This one should be a little bigger than the previous one. More details on the many features would be available over the next weeks.
Many changes and additions to ship building, sea battle are included, featuring a predilection for archery and group combat.
