Patch Note October 9, 2024 (Re-balance Patch)

Hello everyone! And welcome to the official ADOH 2024 Re-balance Patch!

This patch brings in many many changes to several parts of the game. We try our best to constantly give you the most balanced game to play, and this requires some changes from time to time.

Automatic Re-roll Eligibility: #

Some classes have been severely adjusted with this patch. These changes will automatically grant a free Character Re-roll to some specific builds.

These re-rolls will be bound to those characters only, check below the patch note for all the details about these changes. The re-roll option will be available on your Player Menu:

  1. Builds with less than 15 Weapon Master levels and with a total of 40 levels
  2. Builds with less than 10 Monk levels and with a total of 40 levels

New Beginner’s Guide #

The beginner’s guide has been reworked and adapted to the most recent changes. You can find it on this wiki, on the Guides section!

Henchmen System Reworked #

The Nordock Henchmen system has been completely reworked following new and modernized code and logic.

  1. Each faction has now access to an unique and specific list of henchmen.
  2. Removed any sort of level restriction, you can ask for an henchmen from your faction at any level.
  3. Items carried and worn by your henchmen will persist, and the same items will be shared across all henchmen from your account, regardless of class or faction.
    • Henchmen can’t carry many items. Regardless of their strength ability value, a henchmen will be able to carry up to 20 items on their inventory (not counting equipped items).
    • If you give your henchmen more than 20 items, the henchmen will freeze on ground and won’t move or do anything until you remove some items from it
  4. Items given to your henchmen will be migrated/deleted/adjusted during mass migrations, like what happens for any other item.
  5. New henchmen are limited to a max level of 10 if you haven’t completed the main quest, or a max level of 20 if you have completed the main quest with that character.

Custom henchmen commands #

You can command your henchmen to have them do several different actions (via conversation):

  1. Buff itself with spells, if available
  2. Buff its owner with spells, if available
  3. Attack nearest enemy, if available
  4. Attack target enemy
  5. Cleric henchmen will be able to resurrect corpses if you command them. They will use the best resurrection method available to them. If you give them a Balm, they’ll use it if they can.

New Low Level quests #

Added a total of 20 low level quests, mostly for surfacers, but some also for other factions too. These quests were made to introduce players to their faction, and to direct new players to these new henchmen!

Special Weather System #

  1. Some special areas now have an additional special weather system on them.
  2. Areas where weather is particularly harsh can apply several effects to players adventuring in there, like persistent damage each round and/or special weather events on random area locations.

Happy Hour: #

Happy Hour, twice per day at 12 hours distance one from the other, will happen each Saturday and Sunday from this patch.

General Happy Hour bonuses have been slightly reduced, specially the Unique chance, to balance and spread the bonuses on 2 days instead of only 1, and also as a reply to some players suggesting Happy Hour Unique chance bonus somehow made the game too hard.

New Frozen Throne RAID #

Something terrible is happening in the Great Glacier. Frost Dragons are appearing in great numbers after being absent for centuries. The terrible monsters drive both Worgs and Trolls south. This is causing all kinds of problems for a small mining village up in the mountains. The village desperately needs help. But what is the cause of it all? Someone must travel into the Great Glacier and find out!

This is a remake of the Great Glacier area with a new leveling area for 30+ characters. Complete with quests, brilliant items, and also a new level 40 raid.

Feats Adjustments #

Several feats, listed below, have been adjusted with a new use/day scaling system. These feats will see their use/day amount scale with character general level or with a specific class or a list of classes levels.

This is an experiment, and we are also thinking to add a cooldown system per feat, on top of this addition, but it hasn’t been added yet at the time of this Beta. We’ll need your feedback to understand how to properly manage this change.

  2. Can use Balms to resurrect Player Corpses at Blackguard level 30
  3. Added Spell Focus, Greater Spell Focus and Epic Spell Focus feats as possible feats that can be selected during level up

Monk: #

Monk is the preferred class for multiclassing, and rightfully so! It grants so many benefits with such a little investment. While we still want to see Monk as a valid multiclass option for many kind of builds, we also need to reduce its strength on multiclass builds that just pick a few levels of monk.

  1. Monk Wisdom AC bonus: the amount of AC received by this feat now is 1 + (1 point each 2 Monk levels), up to 21 or the Wisdom modifier, if lower.

Northern Templar: #

  1. Removed 1 Natural AC at level 1
  2. Received an additional use of the Guardian of Krisaldimun at Norther Templar level 30.

Red Dragon Disciple: #

Pale Master: #

  1. Removed Animate Dead and Summon undead feats.
  2. Renamed Summon Greater Undead in Summon Fallen Angel and moved to Pale Master level 5.

  1. Moved Summon shadow feat from Shadowdancer level 3 to Shadowdancer level 5.

Shifter: #

  1. Upped uses/day of Undead Shape, Outsider Shape and Construct Shape to 5/day

Weapon Master: #

Weapon master can easily be the best DPS class in the game. Because of several changes and additions to the game we did, building a character mixing only 7 levels of Weapon Master now grants too much strength to a character, compared to the balance of other type of builds.

Because of this and after a lot of thinking, we decided to better distribute Weapon Master unique feats.

  1. Critical Multiplier: Moved to Weapon Master level 7
  2. Ki Critical: Moved to Weapon Master level 15

Races Adjustments: #

  • Aasimar: Increased Negative Vulnerability to 50%
  • Demon: Increased Cold Vulnerability to 100%
  • Minotaur: Reduced slashing/piercing/bludgeoning damage immunity to 10%
  • Troll: Increased acid/fire vulnerability to 20%
  • Werewolf: removed 2 AC
  • Orc: removed level 1 mandatory classes

Base Races Boost #

  1. Human: also receives +1 to all saves
  2. Halfling: also receives a +4 to the Initiative and +1 AC at night
  3. Half-Elf: also receives a +2 to Listen, Search, Spot and +1 AB during day
  4. Half-Orc: also receives a 10% movement speed boost on foot and +2 Fort Save
  5. Dwarf: also receives a +1 AB and AC while in underground areas
  6. Gnome: also receives a +1 to AB and AC while in artificial areas
  7. Elf: also receives a +1 to AB and AC while in natural areas

Mounts System Adjustments #

  • Mounts are cool and very useful, but lately we noticed they somewhat became more and more mandatory on player builds, and this is not what we want for mounts. We want mounts to be a cool addition, but a player needs to build specifically for them, and invest the required amount of skill points and feats.
  • Also, fighting on a mount can’t grant only benefits, some possible down side is needed to proper balance this system with everything else. For this reason, a new specific Dismount mechanic has been introduced.

Introduced new mounts feats: #

  1. Skill Focus – Ride: grants +3 Ride skill
  2. Epic Skill Focus – Ride: grants +10 Ride skill

Mounts max speed adjustments: #

Mounts specific speed hasn’t changed, but it does for those players that don’t invest enough on it.

Character mount speed scaling logic: #
  1. Max speed: 2.40 with 43 Pure Skill points
  2. Max speed: 2.20 with 33 Pure Skill points
  3. Max speed: 2.00 with 23 Pure Skill points
  4. Max speed: 1.80 with 18 Pure Skill points
  5. Max speed: 1.60 with 9 Pure Skill points

Also, the Max Speed in-combat is always limited to 1.50 unless the character has the Mounted Combat feat.

Dismount Mechanic: #

  1. All spells or effects that would cause the character to be knocked down, while mounted, also havethe character make a Dismount Ride check against such spell/ability. If failed, the character dismounts.
  2. A normal Knockdown attack triggers this check too. If a character is immune to knockdown, a normal knockdown attack won’t trigger the dismount check, but some specific spells still can attempt to dismount the character. If immune to knockdown, the character receives a boost to its Dismount check of +3.
  3. Dismount protection item properties and Dismount immunity item properties have also been added to the game.

Here are a few examples: #
  1. If you get knocked down by a normal attack: DC is the AB of the creature, VS your Ride Skill + Dexterity + Buffs + Items + d20. If you are immune to Knockdown, this kind of dismount cannot happen to you.
  2. If you get knocked down by a Devastating Critical hit: DC is Devastating Critical DC + 10 VS your Ride Skill + Dexterity + Buffs + Items + d20. If you are immune to Knockdown you are still knocked down and you still have to pass the Dismount DC to not be dismounted, but you receive a bonus of +3 to your roll.
  3. If you get knocked down by a spell: DC is the spell DC + 1 + (2x spell innate level) VS your Ride Skill + Dexterity + Buffs + Items + d20. If you are immune to Knockdown you cannot be physically knocked down, but you still have to pass the Dismount DC to not be dismounted. For these cases you receive a bonus of +3 to your roll.

Trade Hall – Now Open! #

The Trade Hall in Mulrok Village has been re-opened with some cool news!

The new Trade Hall will handle your GTS crafted items sell/buy, with automated dynamic prices and bulk sell options!

  1. The area has been heavily reworked and now looks more like a real trade facility!
  2. Added banker to ease items trading for players

Creatures Models Fix: #

Fixed hundreds of Creatures models that were missing the VFX box over their heads. Those models should now properly show effects when applied to them!

Weapons Re-balance #

One big change from this balance adjustment is about weapons. With the need to introduce, in the near future, a new tier of items for the upcoming Hard Core version of the Raids, we took the chance to better distribute damage on weapons, and to reduce the gap between class abilities and weapons damage. Also, thse adjustments have been made to all existing end-game weapons to standardize them under a single formula.

Most end-game weapons like Nordock weapons, Socketable weapons, Legendary Purple weapons and some Brilliant weapons, have lost several points of DPS compared to before, but worry not: that is indeed just a balance adjustment, since also all end-game creatures have lost an equal point of HPs in percentage. You’ll just notice somewhat smaller damage numbers, but the time taken to complete a Raid will be pretty much the same it was before.

Nordock Weapons Changes: #

Only damage values have been adjusted to align with the new formula.

Legendary Purple Weapons Changes: #

Purple-tier weapons have been re-balanced to reflect changes made to raid content. While most purples remain largely the same, some have received damage adjustments and property tweaks to align with the new formula. These changes are intended to encourage their use, ensuring that players feel confident and rewarded when using purple-tier weapons.

  1. Additionally, several more Legendary on-hit properties have been added to several Legendary Purple Weapons that were stil missing some kind of uniqueness! Check them out in our Test Area!

Socketable weapons #

This re-balance was the most challenging, due to the nature of the system, the socket system did not allow for a proper balance between weapon types.

Because of that, we have adjusted the system to allow each weapon type to have its own sockets amount, and its own damage per socket cap. Example: A Great Sword can socket up to 4 different properties, with a maximum of 1d12 on damage types, while a Two Bladed Sword can socket up to 4 different properties, with a maximum of 1d10 on damage types, and so on.

To help players compensate and adjust their Socketable weapons and/or wearable accordingly to these changes, the cost in Boss Tokens required to socket new properties on a Socketable item has been reduced to 0 for some time.

The New Logic behind the rework #

Sharing the complete list of new weapon properties and all changes to weapons would probably take several pages. Instead, we’ll share with you the formula and logic used to make these new weapon values. You can check each new weapon on the Beta server, inside of the TEST area.

Several new Nordock Weapons, Nordock Wearable Items and Legendary Purple Weapons have been added to the game.

  5. Face of Quazzo

Notes about Set Bonuses Changes:

Since this is mostly a new balance attempt and not an intentional nerf to classes set bonuses, most end-game creatures AB have been adjusted accordingly to the AC loss from set bonuses.

AOE Active Limit Adjustment: #

So far, you could have up to 4 AOE at the same time, regardless of their spells of origin, potentially leading to 4 AOE from the same spell being active at the same time. We felt that was a bit too strong, specially for some specific spells.

From this patch, you can still have up to 4 AOE active at the same time, but up to 2 coming from the same spell.

Polymorph Adjustments: #
