Shroud Of The Avatar Release 39 Now Live, Player-Rented Rooms Delayed
Shroud of the Avatar released yet another massive update last Friday, the details of which can be found in their latest weekly newsletter. Release 39 features the addition of devotional town shrines, the K’rul and K’rawl dungeons, North Drachvald and Upper Fortus adventure scenes, clockwork attack creatures, mushroom monsters, and a pattern system for re-skinning gear. The update also includes various fixes and improvements to combat, navigation, quest discovery, along with touch-ups to igniting weapons and the Path of Courage storyline among others.
Unfortunately, there were a few things that didn’t make it into the release. This includes: the new agriculture interface, ammo refactoring, Obsidian Cabalists, un-cloning the Rhun Ruins, and room renting. Portalarium explains:
“In order to get room renting working properly, we had to entirely refactor how we store and save items in player homes. This in turn led us to realize that we should work on the ability to save a decorated home (and eventually move it) before we do Room Rentals, so we have chosen to delay Room Renting for now.”
The developers, however, have added in a feature called Magic Movers which allows players to save decorated houses and basements, move them to another lot, or keep them for a later date.
The newsletter also gives readers a sneak peek into the making of the Goblin Town-inspired Serpent’s Spine Mines, and the aptly-named scene, The Fall. According to the team, both dungeons are planned to go live by Release 41.
