The Rebalancing and Tweaks update.
Sorry for the long time without a new update. I was modifying how some aspects of the game work,
aswell as rebalancing too.
I also have been working on other things, like beginning implementing some non combat activities, like crafting items,
and begun adding some more ingredients that will be handy for such abilities. There is more to come.
Well, better I break through the most important parts of this update:
Weight Rebalance
A number of items got changes on their weight, to make them slightly heavier or lighter.
The number of items changed are significant, so it's quite complicated to pinpoint what items got changed.
Most of those items are equipments, and some of them are materials, like ores.
The maximum weight stack of your guild mates got a nerf. Instead of each point of POW giving 10 of max weight,
it will now give only 4.
That doesn't mean your guild mates will always be over encumbered, but at least that may end up happening, compared
to previous version.
Change to Skill Auto Targetting
I think there's a potential for tactical usage of skills, like in the case of Jump Kick skill. Enemy targetting skills wont be automatically used on a foe if your character is attacking it, and need to be pressed the key twice to use on that foe.
You can enable on the game setting the old way of making a skill be used on the target the character is attacking only by pressing once.
I will need to add more skills to allow more tactical usage of the characters, even more since controlling three characters at the same time is adds quite a complexity, even more when facing bosses.
Many Buffs to Skills and Characters
A bunch of skills and characters got buffs.
Many skills like from Collin, Magara, Umbra and other characters Combat Technique got a damage boost, to make them worth using in combat.
And many characters also got damage modifying value to their Combat Technique, so using them will make your character cause actually more damage.
You can see that with more detail on the change log, about what kills and characters got buffs.
Gavea Training Field Tutorial Changes
The Gavea Training Field tutorial got some changes, with the addition of images to try helping with the tutorial information.
Also added some npcs that will give a tutorial about the compass, and also has a minigame to practice compass usage, with a reward that will be given once if you talk with the npcs at the direction the npcs tell you to go.
This minigame can be played and replayed as long as possible, and the npc can also talk a bit about the cardinal directions of the compass.
Added also 2 guard npcs to the portal leading to City of Gavea, who help you with other topics regarding combat and techniques.
New Guild Member
This is Dexter. Dexter is a Fullmoon Magic Academy apprentice Mage.
This little mage wants to join a Guild, like Denis also want to.
He knows some powerful spells that can be used against foes depending on situation, but still has troubles channeling them.
Some of them might take a while to cast, but when they do, they are meant to hurt whatever is hit by those spells.
For you to get him to join your guild, you may need to help him with a task from his academy.
New Combat Technique
It's Witchcraft time! Rose has learned how to make use of the obscure arts of Witchcraft, and now she can use those
to inflict ailments on her opponents.
Alongside Witchcraft, she also learned a skill to create potions.
Potion creation will work partially like the Cooking skill from Kiki, but it will be a bit more complex.
There are some herb items that were added to the game, whose can either be found from monsters as loot, or be dropped from new
plant npcs that were added to the game.
You can craft the Healing Potions you see at the store yourself, saving your self some gold in the process (if you have the patience to farm for the items), or... You can create potions that boost your character stats for a limited time, whose can't really be found on the stores.
Currently, she wont offer potion crafting as one of the guild services. I'll add the possibility of doing that later.
Quests Experience Overhaul
Many quests, mostly bounty quests, got a overhaul on the way their exp is given.
Now, there's a system built into the game which helps me calculate the exp such quests should give based on a level value.
That system will also make quests give more guild exp than they used to before, so be ready to see your guild gaining some
more levels.
As for guild levels, I still need to implement functions that will make use of them.

What's Next?
Well, I still need to work on the Cliffs of Lamentation, which is the next zone of Gavea you'll have access to.
Also need to work on the Dragon that will be there, and its boss fight.
There is a new guild member that I've been designing too, whose I have leaked previously on my Twitter and
Discord server. He's going to be dealing with mining jobs, but I also gave him a cannon, so I will have some work
to do on him before I get launch him.
As for what to do with the result of mining, I believe the Gavea Blacksmith might be handy with this.
There's a character that should actually already be a guild member, but I still need to work on his skills and recruitment
quest. My only clue is: You probably only did the first step of his recruitment quest.
Hopefully, whoever did his quest, will know who I'm talking about.
There's also the Guild Leader, who still need to be implemented to the game, but I still need to design their Combat Techniques
sprites, even more for the female Guild Leader. But I'm starting to think that maybe I should simplify the process a bit.
I'll make a poll on the discord server about this later.
And... The Guild Levels should have more use than simply being used for specific recruitment quests. I'm thinking of a "skill tree",
what do you think? Hehe...
Well, that's it for this update. I hope you like it.
Do send me your feedback about the game, and be sure to report any problems you find.
And hopefully, the next big update will make you amazed.
Enjoy your gameplay, and have fun :)
