Major Patch Notes for Battles and Regions

• Region Ownership Battles: Battles for changing region ownership will now occur 3 times a day.

• Hourly Region Battles: Battles on cells can now be fought every hour by activating /claim. Losers will be sent back to the campfire, and winners will gather resources from the cell.

• Gold and XP Loss in Battles: Only half of the gold in hand will be lost in battles. Additionally, there is a 5% XP penalty and a small chance to lose some equipment.

• Resource Regeneration Speed: The base speed of resource regeneration on a cell has been increased. Previously, it was +1 every 60 minutes; now, it is +1 every 45 minutes.

• Region Resource Regeneration: The speed of resource regeneration in a region depends on the percentage of controlled territories. If more than 25% is controlled, regeneration slows down; if less than 25%, it speeds up.

• Expert Challenges Regions: Two cells for high-level players have been added, where resource regeneration is twice as fast.

• Level Restrictions: Level restrictions have been introduced for both novice and high-level cells.

• Quest Restrictions: Low-level players cannot complete quests on regular and high-level cells. High-level players can complete quests on regular cells but will receive an XP and loot penalty.

• Dynamic Level Calculation: The levels considered as novice and high-level are calculated dynamically and can be found in the region description.

• Web Map UI: Special cells for novices and high-level players are marked on the web map with a sign in the bottom right corner.

• Novice Spawn Location: Novices will now spawn in training lands instead of at the campfire.

• Resource and Step Recovery Time: The time remaining for resource regeneration on a cell and for step recovery can be checked with the /numbers command.

• Minimum HP for Quests: The minimum HP required for quests has been changed to 50.

• Domain regions: The four neighboring regions with a campfire are permanent points of the castle and cannot be captured.
