In this update, we're excited to unveil a brand new feature that will add a thrilling layer of danger and strategy to your adventures! Thieves now have the ability to set devious traps on the ground outside of guarded and housing zones, lying in wait for unsuspecting victims.
These traps are not permanent; they decay after 20 minutes, so timing is everything. But beware—once you've set a trap, you'll need to wait three minutes before you can place another. The risk is high, but so are the rewards!
If a player riding a horse and cart unknowingly triggers a trap, they'll be swiftly dismounted, and the contents of their cart will spill onto the ground, ripe for the taking. However, savvy adventurers can protect themselves from this fate with special talismans scattered throughout the world. These talismans offer a chance to shield your loot from the trap's effects, making them a valuable asset for anyone traveling with precious cargo.
Painting and Banner Rescale Scrolls can now be fished up in the moat, although they are still rare.
When players are participating in the new mining delivery quest, other group members who are not actively on the quest but are assisting will now be able to obtain Azureite Ore from the Azureite Elementals
A new Horse and Cart quest has been added. Visit Chum the Miner inside the Miners' Guild in Britain. He will give you a quest to find and deliver 3 heavy pieces of Azureite Ore to a miner in Minoc at the Golden Pickaxe. For this quest, you'll need to enlist the help of other players with carts, as all three pieces of ore must be delivered together.
Sable the Infiltrator, who provides the crystal activation quest, now sells activators for the Buccaneer's Den Fowl Frenzy event for 4 quest tokens. The activator requires at least 10 players to activate.

The tables have turned! Head to Buccaneer's Den, where chaos reigns as the chickens and turkeys strike back. The Barrel Vendor near the bank offers exploding barrels to defend yourself, but beware—these birds aren't going down without a fight! The chickens have mutated, becoming volatile and aggressive, ready to explode on impact and take you down with them. A massive mutant turkey boss is on the loose, adding to the mayhem. Criminals, tread carefully—volatile barrels will still seek you out! Thieves can attempt to steal from the turkeys and chickens. And don't forget to bring your horse and carts for any heavy loot that may drop from the boss!
