These changes are intended to make archery weapons feel more responsive and competitive across different combat scenarios. Let us know how the update plays for you.
Since we’ve been adding many new features and not all of them warrant a dedicated news item, we’ll start providing a kind of changelog. This will take the form of a news page, initiated at the beginning of each month, where smaller changes and additions will be continuously documented (revisit this page regularly). The first changelog is for June, but it also includes some updates from May.

Hail, adventurers! Due to the roaring success of our last Paws explosion fest, we’re cranking up the chaos with a brand-new, heart-pounding event! This is no ordinary rerun—it’s bigger, badder, and bursting with madness! Get ready for 24 hours of non-stop action this weekend!
Keep your eyes peeled for Special Exploding Barrels popping up across the Town of Paws. These barrels are slippery—they’ll vanish in just 60 seconds, so sprint to snag one! Use them to blast open one of the two wells in Paws: one near the Brit Bridge, the other by Colleen the Gypsy. This time, we’ve got Guaranteed-Break Barrels—rare, barrels that will crack those stubborn wells open on the first try!
Smash a well, and you could score a Puzzle Chest stuffed with even more rare loot than before. But beware—bigger explosions mean more ferocious monsters guarding the wells, ready to test your mettle. These wells are tough nuts to crack, so bring your patience and determination!
Check our official discord for all the information!

Stay sharp for Special Exploding Barrels spawning all over the Town of Paws. These things are quick they’ll vanish in 60 seconds flat, so move fast! Grab one and use it to try blasting open one of the two wells in Paws one near the Brit Bridge, the other close by to Colleen the gypsys camp. These wells are not easy to blow open and may take many attempts!
Crack one open, and you might snag a Puzzle Chest packed with rare loot. But fair warning, these wells are tricky and will test your patience!
