• Treasure chests within the faction dungeon now have a chance to yield faction coins and other rewards.

• Quick travel spells are now disabled within the Faction Dungeon.

• The new faction dungeon, has officially opened its portals in Buccaneers Den. Adventurers can battle faction MOBs to gather faction coins, soon to be valuable currency for an upcoming faction vendor. Player feedback on this latest update is highly encouraged.

1. Fine-tuned the "Shared Loot" system for more even distribution among group members.
2. Added Bows for Season Challenge crafting, Ice Ratmen for hunting, and OldToby for gathering

We hope you enjoy these improvements and new opportunities in Shards of Britannia!

• You can now purchase Halloween lottery boxes from the fishing token vendor.

• You can also catch Halloween lottery boxes inside dungeons (minimum fishing skill required: 50).

We've addressed the issue with Town Fishing loot not functioning during Holiday events. Multiple attempts were made earlier in the season, but the latest fix should resolve it.

Patch Note:

• Resolved an issue where houses were not decaying in some instances.

Update:

• We have implemented an additional fix for the issue of House Decay not functioning correctly. Consequently, all houses have been refreshed.
• We made this decision because if we had only fixed the issue, all houses that were in the In Danger of Collapsing (IDOC) state would have immediately fallen. We wanted to ensure fairness, so we decided to refresh all houses instead.
• It's important to note that the decay feature had not been working as intended for several months. Therefore, you haven't missed out on any decayed houses, and those that were in the IDOC state will still likely decay over time.

Starting now, when applying dyes or dye-tubs to furniture obtained through a deed, the deed will preserve the color and hue of the furniture upon release.

Halloween items that normally can only be blessed with Halloween bless deeds can now also be blessed using Clothing Bless Deeds that are available on the donation vendor

👺We've fixed an issue with the Halloween Demon Skull Masks not being dyeable as intended. They can now be dyed using Pigment dyes. This includes this year's masks and last year's. 👺
