Berlin, May 2, 2018 – The Berlin-based development studio Sandbox Interactive today released an extensive Midseason Patch for their Sandbox MMORPG, Albion Online. Coming just a few weeks after the release of the latest big content update, Lancelot, this midseason patch provides several important improvements and changes. The studio also released a new Dev Talk Video featuring Game Director Robin Henkys’ insights into the changes coming with the patch.
Overview of the most important improvements:
- GvG Balance Changes
- The cost of buying runes, souls and relics for siphoned energy will be significantly reduced
- The activation times of siege camps will be synchronized to twice per day, with half the camps becoming active during each period
- The spawn delay of Siphoning Mages will be increased so they will spawn less frequently
- Siphoning Mages in place before a GvG will no longer provide a bonus during the following GvG battle
- Re-Spec
- Players can now trade skill masteries (“re-specialize”) between different skill paths, allowing them to adapt their specializations as needed
- GvG Training Battles
- As the first step toward a fully realized GvG training system, players can now conduct zero-cost, zero-risk GvG training battles. This will allow newer guilds to build team skills, and give more seasoned guilds the opportunity to test out new strategies and builds.
- Combat Balance Changes
- This patch will bring numerous combat balancing changes to keep combat in Albion vital and fair.
