Patchday Notes 2015

Ahoy Pirates,

With the sync we fixed the buff from the Brutus pet so that it now works as intended (and how it was written in the FAQs). The Brutus pet has a 5% Critical Damage buff which means that when you make a critical hit, the damage will be 5% more.

Ahoy Pirates,

During today we have synced some Bug/localization fixes and the next event (starting next week)

Sync content:

- Next event content
- Corrected Some localization errors
- Some GFX (graphic assets) for next nation ships
- Fixed: Client updates to late after selling cannons (A re-login was needed to update the client)
- Fixed: Black areas on bonus maps
- Fixed: Wrong time limit at Pirate Test Level 18, 19 & 20

Ahoy, Pirates!


We took your feedback into consideration and did some changes to the event, to make the event ammo more attractive. There are also more NPCs available now. This should help to reduce the amount of players surrounding around each NPC. All changes are only done to the three main NPCs, not to the Mates.


Short list of what changed:

· Increased Ammo Damage. Shell shock makes even more damage now

· Reduced HP from the main NPCs, Blackheart, Redtooth & Silverblade.

· Increased Spawn Amount from main NPCs.

· Removed Items from loot and put into black market.

· Adjusted Pearl and EXP loot to fit with the new HP

Your Seafight team

 

Ahoy Pirates,

Please note a few textual changes to the Most Wanted FAQ.

Whoever defeats Venom-heart has a small chance of getting the Venom-heart design by inflicting the most damage. Whoever has the design already will be given pearls as a reward instead.


Whoever defeats Bloodtooth has a small chance of getting the Bloodtooth design by inflicting the most damage and a slightly higher chance of getting the Venom-heart design. Whoever has one of the designs already will be given pearls as a reward instead.

Whoever inflicts the most damage to the Silverblade and sinks the NPC has a small chance of getting the Silverblade design, and a slightly higher chance of getting the Venom-heart and Bloodtooth designs. Whoever already owns one of the designs will receive pearls instead of the design.

Ahoy Pirates,

As you may have noticed, there will be a restart in approximately 25 minutes.

We will sync just some localization changes. We had a bad “Voodoo Blast” translation in some language versions, so this is the main localization fix.

Your Seafight Team

 

Today we had a sync which was done for new Safe Heaven assets and for some small fixes:

• - Fixed: use the teleport unlimited times without deduction
• - Fixed: NPCs on Capricornus bonus map are not always visible
• - Some localization fixes: e.g. wording issue with voodoo blast ammunition

 

During todays sync we had a few more fixes.

• - Fixed: When capturing an neutral island, the map remains in neutral status (found out on beta instance)
• - Fixed: Broken teleport item: When activating a teleport, the countdown runs out but nothing happens

 

Ahoy Pirates,

Due to your feedback we have synched some event changes.

- Higher spawn rate of Eggnests, chests, Snapjaw and the Turtle Raiders (with and without blessing phase)
- Turtle Crusher: Increased NPC Hit Points and increased pearl rewards
- Dodge damage from Big Turtle has been reduced, so you can make more damage now

Due to a bug with the ELP from the daily rankings, we changed the ELP daily ranking rewards with the following:

Place	Rewards
11-100	100 Crystals
101-200	50 Crystals
201-300	10 Crystals

Your Seafight Team

Ahoy Pirates,

We will start the synchronization process in some minutes. A restart is needed. Reset of event quests, and fixing some graphical assets and correcting some localization text issues.

Your Seafight Team

 

Ahoy Pirates,

We had a server restart earlier, however we also had a maintenance downtime then. It will lasted about 30 minutes. The synch was for some Rocket Master values and some server data. It was needed before the Rocket Master sale/feature started.

Your Seafight Team

 

Ahoy Pirates,

With the todays synch the amount of HP from the defender and warrior NPCs will be reduced from 10,000,000 to 5,000,000. Furthermore the warrior NPCs will not attack players anymore, only the titans. Next important thing is, that the warriors will make much more damage now, about 4 times as much as before, AND the zone from the defender NPCs are 20% stronger now!

Your Seafight Team

 

Ahoy pirates,

After the coming restart, there will be a maintenance for about 15-20 minutes.

Here are a short summary of the current synch:

We have fixed the quest system – Ajax quests are playable again.

The league end date changed – this season lasts until the 15th of August, and then, every season runs from the 15th to 15th
​

Your Seafight Team

 

Ahoy Pirates,

Todays synch was just for the new talent points.

After the synch the new level 6 skills/talents would be available in the talent skill tree.

Your Seafight Team

 

Ahoy Pirates,

We will start to synch in about 35-60 min. We will delete all inactive guilds, which is needed for the coming guild rework. Unfortunately there’s a downtime needed to run the script. The downtime should be no longer than 1 hour, but it COULD take about 4 hours if something goes wrong.

We apologize for any inconvenience caused to you. But this script is really needed to get the new guild features working. We are also very sorry for the short notice.

Your Seafight Team

 

Ahoy Pirates,

Additionally to the big fix that should resolve the “broken servers”, today’s fix contains the following as well:



Bugfixes

Website
· Profile

o The text labels “cabin_profile_League - labels_leagueName_0” on the profile page now have been exchanged for real text.
o The ship preview is now again functional​

· An issue with the skill tree graphics once you assigned all 70 points has been resolved.
· An issue with a missing graphics (“Buy Pearls”) in the Market Cove has been fixed.
· Bokor’s Chalice: Subscriptions and boosters will now stack correctly if won multiple times.​

Client​

· Guild treasury: Donations, payouts and tax deductions are now correctly listed again. This also means that the information is displayed in the player logs, too!
· Guild window: the dropdown menu’s position is corrected.
· When purchasing pirates in the game, the messages would not give the actual number of pirates hired. This has finally been fixed.​

Payment​

· The descriptions of the Rocket Master packages now mention their dependency on Premium.
· Level 3 Commander is now purchasable again.
​

Your Seafight Team

 

Ahoy Pirates,

League System

· The points collected in the League System are now displayed correctly again.
​

Your Seafight Team.

 

Ahoy Pirates,

There were many fixes and updates made during the last sync. The list below should help with any queries you may have.

Path to the Beast

· The price for the Boss Maps now increases when a player finishes the game with a helper or cancels playing the map.

· The time counter for the group map is now always visible.​

League System

· The points collected in the League System are now displayed correctly again.​

Website

· Ship equipment: The “Merchant” button no longer leads to the “Rummage” store. Now it opens the “Trader/Weapon” section.

· Black Market: The description of “Queen’s Legacy” now displays the amount of days the buff is running.​

Client

· The last of the dinosaur’s has gone: The dinosaur image under the Tiamat NPC has finally gone. Bye-bye T-Rex.​

Internal

· A change to the configuration should now ensure that all servers are properly running after a restart. It was possible that during restarts not all internal services would be running and so it looked like information was lost (e.g. players would not be in their guild anymore, etc.)

​

Following up on the discussion on loot values, the team has made the following changes to some loot tables:



Event Chests Content

Increased drop rate of Ammo (and the amount bandwidth) and combined other items into one (rare) drop.



Item

· Explosive Ammo

· Heartbreaker Ammo

· Pumpkin Ammo

· Snow Ammo

· Shell Shock Ammo

· Item Package

o 2x Asklepios Talent

o 9x Triton's Blessing

o 9x Agwe Amulet ​

Loot for Group map


Increased Pearl payout and added chance to receive items from table below. (Note: “Chance” means that not every item will drop and that it may be possible that not every time one of these items drops!)

Pearls

WAS: 80,000 -> IS NOW: 120,000​

Items

· 30x Dragon Fire

· 30x Legba Amulet

· 30x Triton's Benevolence

· 4x Voodoo Cannons

· 1x Ship Design: The Executioner

· 1x Ship Design: Catapult​

In addition to that we have also made the following changes:



Admiral Smith

On top of the exiting reward, players who sink Admiral Smith have a chance to also get one of the following rewards:

· Heartbreaker Ammo

· Pumpkin Ammo

· Snow Ammo

· Shell Shock Ammo​

Ship Wrecks



We have increased the amount of some drops you can get from the ship wrecks. You have a chance to get one of the following items:

· Explosive Ammo

· Black Powder

· Ogoun Amulett

· Eye of Precision

· Crystals

· A 55 or a 60 Pounder

· A Lv.3 / 4 / 5 / 8 Gem
​

Also the release contains fixes for the following issues:

· The random Mini game rewards (2x Firestorm for 9 random players in the Top 100) are now being paid out properly.​

· Group Map – Emblem costs

o Emblems are now only subtracted when players enter the map and not if they just join a group in the group finder.

o The amount of Emblems you are paying for entering the map are now logged in the logbook (note: the text has not been localized – it will either appear in English or as a placeholder.)​

· The Boss Map fees are now calculated correctly again. It would happen that the “maps played” counter was not reset from one day to the next.​

Concerning the Group Map ranking: There was an error that would display the wrong finishing times in the ranking table. All players who were recorded with ridiculously low times (< 1:30mins) are now set to 10mins. A compensation for these players is being prepared.

Your Seafight Team.

 

Ahoy Pirates,

Here are the fixes that were made during the sync:

Guild:

· The function “sail to the groupmember” didn’t work – it’s fixed now.
· Guild member “Kick out” feature is was not working – Fixed. Guild members can be kicked now. ​

Clash Event:

​

Your Seafight Team
