What changed in one sitting
Loot & crafting (biggest shift)
- Most weapons drop fully built with Craftwork and Tempers — preview on the ground before pickup.
- 3-star paths split: Marrow's Bane, Gathannan, etc. still use fragments → craft; Purity drops whole from Mendicant King, then Reforge (instant). Forged results get random Craftwork.
- Refine favourites at Tuvalkane with Chordstones (craft Lampyrites from sieges, Cogah, chests).
- See farming routes and Chordstone.
Virtues
- Virtue Lith removed — adjust Courage / Spirit / Grace free per loadout in Arsenal → Virtues.
- Virtues explained
Social
- Player trading at Enclaves and World Trees (crafted gear, runes, totems, resources — not Arcs).
- Dispatches in-game mail.
- Hotfix 14 (Jul 29): official notes say Trade Scutage burden reduced by 90% — see Trading.
- Hotfix 15 (Aug 19): official notes — weapons, armour, and Pacts from Fables, Mini-Quests, and Zenith's Wares no longer take up Inventory Capacity; Circade Set duplicates fixed — see Preludes 15 notes.
- Multiplayer & co-op · Trading
New content
- Weapons: Veilk, Ilverac, Vrusht-IX
- Siege: Turret Jotar
- Foe: Ode'n Caelam convoy drones
- Island: Pigwen Skerry
Systems
- Totems reworked — tied to Virtues, Runes, and Smites; old totems → Harmony currency.
- Sieges — random objectives and hazards; objective clears can replace full enemy wipes for S-rank.
- Cogah — enemies start at level 50 and scale with party size.
- Life Elixirs — percentage heal + HoT (damage stops HoT).
Migration notes (official + hub)
- Existing crafted weapons become Stock and can be refined.
- Do not mass-delete old fragments until you read official patch notes.
- Oden & Tempering — metal loop still relevant; refinement uses Chordstones in P15.
