Gear overhaul and changes related to it:
- Added a new system for gear customization based on inserting modifiers (called drifs) into legendary gear.
- Removed the division between rares and psychorares - now every piece of gear rank II+ will have slots for drifs (only applies to player gear).
- New options in stores: inserting drifs into gear, extracting drifs from gear, combining drifs, melting drifs.
- Changes to how psychoexperience is gained - from now on, players will have to level up drifs instead of gear. In addition to that: the number of psycho levels has been increased, adjusted effect gains per level, effect gains have been doubled at higher levels. The number of experience required and the maximum drif levels can be seen in the follow table: HERE
- Adjusted the number of psychoexperience gained from mobs and dialogues to accommodate for new drif levels - all psychoexperience has been multiplied by 10 (except for Gregorius and Ghadira where the gain is lower).
- The following bosses now provide psychoexperience: Babadek, Cross-Spider, Chieftain.
- You can prevent drifs from gaining experience - the disabled drif does not gain experience but its modifier still works. Gear with inserted drifs loses charge no matter whether its drifs are enabled or disabled.
- Drifs inserted into a single piece of gear gain bonus psychoexperience if more than one drif is enabled: 1 drif - 100% experience, 2 drifs - 140% experience, 3 drifs - 150% experience. The bonus psychoexperience is divided equally between all the drifs inserted into that gear piece (rounded down). For example, a player has 3 drifs enabled in gear A and 1 drif enabled in gear B. The boss gives 100 psychoexperience. The player will get 50 experience for the drif in gear B and 25 experience each for the drifs in gear A.
- Drifs can now be looted in instances and from most champions.
- The current legendary and epic gear have been converted to the new system.
- Adjusted the attributes of every piece of legendary gear (some have remained unchanged).
- Increased the attributes of most epics and introduced a booster to the effect of their drifs.
- Combining similar gear pieces into one: both versions of Aquariuses, both versions of Tsunami, Executor, Wrath of the Forgotten and Master of Fate, Utorian Sparks and Seimhi Claws. Adjusted the droprate of the aforementioned gear.
- Added requirements to synergetics (except for Miris and Eriba).
- Undamaged legendary gear can no longer be looted.
- Changed the threshold at which the buff “Resistance to Piercing/Slashing/Crush” is displayed from 200 to 300 points.
- Changed the resource costs of abilities: apprentice level - no changes, adept and master - increased resource costs.
- Adjusted the difficulty of mobs - increased the attributes of all mobs except for those at the lower levels.
- Adjusted the strength of pets - changes to the attribute increasing algorithm, changes to the base attributes of pets.
- Compensations for the current gear according to the following information: [LINK]. In addition to that, the following situations are covered: if an undamaged piece of psychogear is on the market, it’ll be removed from it; if an undamaged psychogear is in the deposit and the main character is on another server, drifs will become bound to the highest level character on the server where the psychogear is located; if a legendary gear piece had negative effect (Current, Aquenirs), players will only get a positive drif from them.
