A new recipe has been added to the game as loot. Find the recipe and ingredients and craft your own pond. Decoration can be fished up with some luck, not only in the moat. And not every ingredient requires a fishing rod. Good luck! And share your designs :-)

Hail, Adventurers of Britannia!

The winds of change sweep through our lands, bringing new opportunities and enhancements to your adventures. Heed these tidings from the realm's scribes, for they bring news of great import!

Faction Pillars Now Player-Driven! The tides of battle shift as Faction Pillars bend to the will of the bold! Faction members may now ignite the spark of conflict by activating the event directly from their Faction Stone, provided at least two warriors from opposing factions stand ready online. The old, rigid schedule of Faction Pillars is no more—take command of your destiny and rally your allies to claim victory when the time is right!

Thieves, Sharpen Your Wits! To those who tread the shadows, the Black Market whispers of new treasures. What mysteries await the cunning? Slip into the night and find out!

Item Fixer: Wisp Jars Renewed! Seek the Item Fixer, that master of mending, for those troubled by a faulty Wisp Jar. Bring your broken Vanity Wisp Jar or Corrupted Wisp Jar to this NPC, who will exchange it for a pristine version, gleaming with a brand-new asset to light your path.

Candles Rekindled with New Splendor! The Item Fixer also offers a boon to those with candles old and new. Whether you hold a Halloween Blood Candle or any candle matching the style show in the attached picture, trade it with the Item Fixer for an updated version, crafted with a refined asset that burns brighter than ever. Visit and restore your candles to their full glory!

We've updated the Housing Wiki Page at https://wiki.shardsofbritannia.com/en/housing to clarify the meaning of the "Ageless" house decay state. Ageless houses do not decay and are typically reserved for staff use or public property.

Recently, there’s been some confusion suggesting that Ageless status is granted through favoritism. To be clear, that is not the case. Ageless houses have only been assigned to Staff Members, designated public plots, and, more recently, a few houses awarded through raffles, which are considered public properties for the purpose of this article.

Please understand that Ageless houses are assigned intentionally and are not subject to player requests. Even if a house appears unused, it is reserved for a reason. We kindly ask that you do not request Ageless status, or ask us to move or revoke it from existing houses. Thank you for your understanding.

Hark, ye seekers of wit and renown, Chuckles’ grand jest spreads through town! No Yew’s deep woods, nor Britain’s stone gate, But a mage’s bright realm seals your fate.

Where slumber’s soft bed lulls creatures’ dream, A lone star’s gleam casts a guiding beam. In Moonglow’s script, the first holds no weight, A truth lies veiled, to number your fate.

Unscramble my jest, let “RATS” rearrange, Seek the gentle fold, where dreams seem strange. Prove your sharp mind, seek the jester’s decree, One clever soul shall claim victory!

— Chuckles, Sovereign of Shenanigans


29th Apr 2025 patchnote

Ho, noble adventurers, to Chuckles’ fun game, One ethereal prize for a mind sharp with fame! For one clever player, who first solves my jest, A singular treasure awaits, the very best!

Not Yew’s leafy shade, nor Britain’s grand keep, But a jester’s bright laugh shall your secret reap. In Britain’s great castle, where banners fly high, Seek a fool full of mirth, with a twinkle in eye.

His name, eight letters, sets the cipher’s true pace, Count its length, shift back, to reveal the right place. Chuckles’ new “KNNRIQQQ” holds the spot you must seek, Move letters by his count, let the numbers speak.

In Moonglow’s fair light, where magic does gleam, Find the hidden splendor, in a starry dream. Follow the digits, let your journey take flight, With a click, one smart soul claims the celestial delight!

— Chuckles, Prince of Pranks
