Entropia Universe​

===========================================================

Entropia Universe 15.7.1 Release Notes

Changes

• Mining finders will prioritize Survey Probes over Universal Ammo.
• It is no longer possible to tier up an item with attached attachments. Please remove any attachments before attempting to tier up an item.
• Attacks with items that exceed the server limit of 100 attacks per minute (i.e. through stacked buff effects) will now receive a damage increase proportional to what would have been achieved with the faster attack speed, while still being limited to 100 attacks per minute. This damage increase will result in increased ammunition and item deterioration proportional to the additional damage created.

Fixes

• An issue causing the 3D model for some items to appear oddly in the item information panel has been corrected.
• Fireworks with now correctly apply buff effects to everyone within the radius around the avatar launching the fireworks,.

Known Issues

• The item info panel for fireworks does not display parameters for buff effects. The buff information is however available in the item description panel for fireworks with buff effects.
• Handing in armor parts with attached armor plated to NPC mission brokers will result an error message in chat and items being returned. Please abandon the upgrade mission from the Quest Log and remove any armor plates to attempt the upgrade again.
• It is currently possible to spawn the pet Dhampire on planets other than Rocktropia. This item was intended to be restricted, and will be corrected in an upcoming update.

MindArk and the Planet Partners strive to ensure a smooth and problem-free Version Update. Nevertheless, even after extensive testing some issues may arise after release. Such issues are often addressed via mini-patches directly after a release and in subsequent patches. If you feel that the possibility of encountering minor issues or bugs directly after a Version Update affects your gameplay to an extent that Entropia Universe is not enjoyable, please wait until the mini-patches have been released and any last minute issues have been resolved.

Nice job as always.

These Ark updates below seem very interesting:

Just completed one will give access to corresponding number warehouse.

The Smugglers have also introduced an Armour Plate upgrade quest, Kate will have more info regarding this quest.

This ark update looks pretty awesome so far. Luckily I'm on Ark at the moment so I'll be able to check out (and get started on) these smuggler missions

Nice to see one of my ideas come to fruition. The training combat skills concept.

Care to expand a bit more on this topic? How does it work exactly, etc.?
