• Murderers can no longer use camouflage potions.

House Refresh Improvements

  • when you login to the game, if you own any houses, the houses will immediately be sent a refresh signal and your character will receive a confirmation message to let you know it's been refreshed
  • house refresh confirmation messages will now show the house's name, location, region and the time it was refreshed, to make it easier to keep track of house refresh times in cases where you might be away for a while
  • improved refreshing house through interacting with items in the house like lockdowns, containers, doors, and the house sign; previously there was a cooldown between these interactions to prevent spamming "the house has been refreshed" to players, instead now it will perform the refresh and only avoid the system message spam
  • reminder: if you need to be away from the game for longer than 3-4 weeks, please contact us for Vacation Hold on your houses, where we can hold them for up to 90 days of leave

Vendor Deeds:

  • added gender selection when using vendor deeds
  • added confirmation prompt when attempting to place vendor to educate users about Vendor Fees

In-game Map:

  • the in-game map now defaults to Draggable for QOL

Due to a limitation in our volunteer team's current availability, we've temporarily suspended the Discord Emergency Support tickets in order to streamline our efforts. Going forward, for emergency issues or concerns that require a response from the team, please use the Contact Us (email) form on our website at https://shardsofbritannia.com/contact and also continue to send bug reports, feedback & suggestions from in-game that do not require a response from the team. Thanks for your patience and understanding!

  • Cora the Sorceress has had some new abilities added and updated loot tables.
  • Peculiar tentacle plants have established their presence within Britannia. If you possess exploding barrels, you may attempt to destroy them, as they often harbor loot from adventures they've intercepted.
  • The Demonic Minotaur's loot table has been fixed, and the pressure traps at its location no longer instantly kill players.

The Ethereal Wings Lottery is live! Visit Merlin Skyfeather near Britain Bank to enter. The cost is 10 raffle tokens, which can be found as loot on Paragon monsters. The lottery will be drawn on 22/5/2024.

  • All Necromancer pet animations have now been fixed.

One of our community members advised us that Microsoft Defender is flagging our setup application as containing a trojan.
For the moment, we have removed this installation option and submitted the file to Microsoft for analysis as we believe the file is fine and that this is a 'false positive' in the latest MS Defender definitions.

This is supported by scans on such sites as Virustotal and Jotti, which you can use yourself if you have any concerns. We'll return that installation method as an option once Microsoft sorts things out for us.

  • Runic sewing kits can now create runic bone armor
  • Crafted fish oil will no longer be created in pouches.
  • Fixed an issue with crafted golden fishing rods having a base durability of 1.
  • Updated the weapons in the Deceit weapon caches to no longer use durability prefixes when generated.

Holiday items are currently restricted from being inserted into the House Resource/Gear Chests due to unique properties that holiday items can have, such as the tooltip, color, or other attributes that may not be retained properly when inserting and removing them from these chests. In the future we will try to improve the system so it can handle unique items more readily. Thanks for your understanding & apologies for the inconvenience
