Content Patch 916-933 (2022-09-23)

A client and server patch and a server restart are scheduled for September 23, 2022 to implement the changes and additions described below.

During character creation, the last step emphasizes the roleplay aspect of the game by offering, instead of the old choice of a class, a list of choices which define the character's roleplay profile.
These choices result in the display in game of two roleplay tags and a title that varies according to the chosen profile, as well as the gift of a weapon or a colored tool featuring improved statistics.
A new starting zone, still on Silan but outside of the Rangers' camp, now offer new players guided welcome of better quality.
A tutorial, divided into several lessons of 4 or 6 explanatory vignettes each, accompanies the first steps of new players.
Each lesson of this tutorial deals with an aspect of the game that helps the player to become familiar with the interface in an interactive way.
Each lesson offers a reward, either cosmetic or useful to the character's skill progression.
The tutorial, although highly recommended, can be skipped via the /skiptutorial command. However, the lessons can be viewed and re-run at any time thereafter.

The new camp's map
This tutorial will be supplemented over the next few months with new lessons to improve the support for new players.
Icons displayed on the map indicate the location of the four coaches in the Rangers' camp.
A Marauders' mini-camp has been added on Silan with a lesson introducing the Marauders' faction and lessons presenting the other factions and peoples of Atys are in-progress.
