Afterwards, we will start working on the new features we promised on the roadmap.

Royal Rumble
- Removed Int Stick from Royal Seraph
- Renamed "Royal Seraph" to "Royal Seraph - Crit"
- Added new Seraph Preset "Royal Seraph - Caster"
- Adjusted prices of all power ups purchaseable at [Royal Rumble] Lee

Memento Siege
- Added a Caster set of items to the Memento preset of Seraph
-- Fixed Bloodbane Stick missing its angel's blessing
General
- Player/Guild rifts will now start automatically once they reach the maximum amount of registered players
- F-Tool now offers possibility to use the Quick Taskbar
- Removed Darkon as a shop area
- Optimized how loading of textures work in V2 model cache
- Added which Endless Tower version you need to clear in the quest log for the Eldeon Sphere Grid Quest line. 
- Added a description to various daily quest items where you can find them.
-- Search for the item in the item wiki and the location will be displayed there.
- After you've visited a shop, the shop search will mark these items as seen
- The most frequent crash after having the client open for a long period of time was running out of memory
-- I've added a force clear of unused resources once that memory is about to run out 
- Adjusted the damage reduction in rifts to be more forgiving
- Reduced the needed amount of Mythical Stones to refill a Glyph by 60%
- Reduced the starting bid of Glyphs and Mythical Stones by 90% 
- Increased the chance to receive an Angel Coin Box from chests in Mysterious Garden, Ragefire Chasm and Stratholme by 50% (unintended nerf)
- Increased the amount of Pet EXP monsters on Sunfall Island give by 25%

Fixes

Dungeon Entries
- Reduced the amount of entries of several dungeons:
-- Clockworks War 4 -> 2
-- Red Meteonyker 3 -> 2
-- The Wilds 6 -> 4
-- Savage Wilds 6 -> 4
-- Isle of Dreams 6 -> 4
-- Isle of Nightmare 6 -> 4
-- Cove of the Ancients 6 -> 4
-- Abyssal Cove of the Ancients 6 -> 4
-- Les Britannia S 6 -> 4
-- La Christiana A 6 -> 4
-- Aminus 5 -> 4
-- Cursed Aminus 5 -> 4
-- Catacombs of Anguish 4 -> 3
-- Ankou's Asylum 3 -> 2
-- Kalgas Cave 3 -> 2
-- Mysterious Garden 3 -> 2
-- Ragefire Chasm 3 -> 2
-- Stratholme 3 -> 2 
- Increased all drop rates to keep the amount of items coming from those dungeons about the same

Optimization
- Optimized a lot of SFX rendering code
- Optimized a lot of animation/state handling
- Improved the effect "Hide all Players & SFX" and "Hide all Players" has on the performance
- In general: The game now has 20%-40% more FPS in my tests, which should help with lags in raids or other high populated areas

- Reworked how model caching works on the server. It is now possible to switch between the modes
-- Off: Disable Model Caching. Especially useful for Collectors/Vendors due to less RAM usage. Once an object is not in sight anymore, it gets removed from memory.
-- V1: The normal Model Caching that has been used on CW for years. Once an object is not in sight anymore, it will be flagged for deletion in 2-3 minutes.
-- V2:  An alternative version of Model Caching. Up to 2000 objects will remain in memory. Once new objects are added, everything will be removed from memory, that is not used and goes over the threshold. Has not been tested thoroughly enough on a large scale, so might have issues. Same applies to SFX with 1000 objects. 
--- V2 might increase the performance, especially in raids or other high frequented areas

- Fixed the "bug" that caused your client to be slower and slower the longer you have it open
Sunfall Island
- Normalized armour stats across all monsters on Sunfall Island
- Adjusted HP numbers of monsters to increase exponentially instead of linearly
-- Players gain different power stacking stats over time, letting them deal more and more damage the more gear they get
- Reduced the amount of HP monsters have on Sunfall towards the top end
- Adjusted penya, drop and exp rates on Sunfall Island
- Reworked all spawns to be more uniform in density
-- Feel free to do your testing and document your findings in https://discord.com/channels/421298671091712000/1011645142500917338

Guild Siege
- Since we can all now agree on that reducing Memento Siege did not bring new players in Siege, we are re-enabling it on the previous days again 

In an effort to make Siege more attractive to a wider array of players, we have made the following changes:
1. Reduce amount of Siege Medals gained by players from 700 base + 100 per kill (up to 800) to 500 base + 100 per kill (up to 500 total for kills)
2. Reduce amount of Siege Medals gained by guilds from up to (1500, 1250, 1000, 750, 500) to up to (1000, 800, 600, 400, 200) based on ranking
3. Give every participant 1x [Chance] Box of Fashion (1.5k Siege Medal value)
4. Give every participant who has killed at least 5 players 1x [Chance] Box of Bones (1.5k Siege Medal value)
5. Introduce a "Guild War Participant" and "Guild War Winner" buffs. Give participants 4x Itemized Buffs each
-- Guild War Participant - Itemized Buff - 2% EXP Rate, 2% Drop Rate, 2% Penya Rate
-- Guild War Winner - Itemized Buff - 3% EXP Rate, 3% Drop Rate, 3% Penya Rate
-- Buffs cannot be combined, only one buff can be active at a time
Players now receive fewer Siege Medals, but receive the compensatory Chance Boxes that most Siege Medal purchases were used for anyway.
The reduction of Medals gained is to offset the cost of the new participation and kill boxes.

- Doubled the range in which attacks can connect in PVP
- Fixed a bug where hits, especially in PVP, would not connect if the target jumped

Memento Siege
1. Change amount of Siege Medals gained to 500 + 100 per kill (up to 500)
2. Do not give an Itemized buff or Chance Boxes

Craft of Hephaestus
- Reduced the damage Hephaestus takes by 50%
- Reduced the HP Hephaestus has by 50%
- Fixed a bug that caused Hephaestus Enrage to not make him gain the proper amount of HP due to limitations
- Increased the max. amount of HP gained in enrage from 50% to 100%
- Increased the max. amount of ATK gained in enrage from 200% to 300% 

Balance
- Reduced the duration of the Cimetiere's Scream debuff from 11 seconds to 5 seconds
- Changed Echoes of the Weary from a snare to a stun

Eldeon - Sunfall Island
- Changed the HP, EXP, Penya and Drop values of 10 monsters in Sunfall Island
-- One of the oversights we made when introducing this island was that it was only balanced for 1v1 farming at the very end game
-- To adress this, we have added 10 different HP tiers/break points to monsters, the lowest starting at 210k HP, with the highest going up to 3.2m
-- That way players can choose the most efficient monsters for them to kill that allow them to reach 1/2/3/x hit breakpoints
- Made all monsters on Sunfall Island completely aoe Immune 

Resurrection Fatigue
- Each time a player dies in a dungeon, that player receives a debuff that lasts 90 seconds
- This debuff, similar to dungeon objectives, is stackable
- Once the debuff reaches its highest tier, level 3, that player cannot be resurrected for 90 seconds by using the Assist Resurrection spell
- While the debuff is applied to a player, that player cannot be teleported by players using any means (couple teleport, Friendship)
-- This change is specifically made to combat the overpowered/degenerate strategy of simply death tanking any boss through sheer amount of bodies instead of fulfilling the minimum gear requirements 

General

- Server Calendar will now save the local time conversion check upon re-opening
- Chat history will now be recorded in Guild Siege when you re-open the chat
