Hello Zezenian Community!
You have been waiting patiently, but in the following days, we will present to you very great progress. As most of you prefer short announcements over long ones, I will try to remain as short as possible. First of all, many of you requested a bigger currency because moving hundreds of heavy gold bars does get exhausting at some point. We found this request very justified and therefore implemented a new currency, a diamond. 1 diamond = 100 gold bars = 10000 gold coins. ![]() Further than that, our new advanced quest log is finally done. Although not all quests are supported by it yet (I will try to get them all done before we update, but since I also want a few new quests in this update, we will see how it goes). This quest log will make questing a lot funnier. It logs all quest relevant information you ever notice somewhere, and while doing that, even informs you about it. It also lets you know once a quest has started or finished. All kind of information in the quest log may always be shown by pressing CTRL + Q ingame. Not only does it collect all information, no, it also works as a sort of journal for yourself, meaning you (not you yourself, but your character who writes it) will leave personal notes on it which might include spoilers and help you a bit if you are stuck. This is what it looks like: ![]() Last but for sure not least, a test server is coming up. After hours and hours of exhausting (not to say annoying!) testing, all spells should finally serve their purpose and perfectly work the way they should. However, we have only balanced a few things yet but are interesting in balancing the entire PvM as well as PvP combat, where we need the support of our dearest players. Our community manager Sator has, among with his fellow game masters, provided us with a list of players who will be allowed to help us balancing. These will consist mostly of Tipitaka/Platon as it is mostly about PvP, but also a few Elysium players were invited. As far as I know without checking the list, many highleveled players were invited as well as those who have already fought a few wars and are considered at least some sort of trustable on their feedback. Of course, all Elder Sages will be able to take part as well. Speaking of feedback, this is what we will want you to provide us with. Any spell that is overpowered, any vocation too weak, anything you think needs a change - we will make a thread about it where you can post your feedback that we will use to tweak the server until it is finally well enough. However, despite new monsters being in this test server, no HP/EXP changes have been done yet as well as loot rate/shop balances are done, so please do not write about that, we are already working on that simultaneously. Before it gets too long again and I name the other hundred changes we did, just wait until we provide you with the client and see for yourself. Be aware that on the test server, the same rules as on the real server apply and if we see it necessary, you will get banned on both. Also, if you noticed that the GMs did not invite you to the test server, making a dozend threads about it is not gonna get you an invite. If we forgot an account of yours that you would like to use for testing purposes, however, feel free to let us know. If you seriously think that we just forgot you or you must be on the test for various reasons, make a reasonable thread about it and our game masters will decide about it. So far so good, please remain patient until we hand out the client, which will happen very soon. After that, we will also open the thread where you can put your feedback / bug reports in. Thank you in advance! For now, it will be a bit hard for you to test because you only have 12 hotkeys. However, once we get the first balances done, we will provide you with a new client that allows you to pick as many as you need as well as ASDW moving during fighting mode. The server is now up, you can download the client HERE. FAQ: Q: What is Fight Mode? A: Fight Mode will disable your talking possibility and let you walk with ASDW. In a few days, it will enable 10 more hotkeys for you to use as well. Q: What does the Spells button do? (currently inactive) A: It shows you all spells available in the game. This is meant for new players to be able to decide what subclass they take easier. Zezenia Staff |

Usually yes, diamonds do have some sort of water-like look, but they exist in a lot of colours, just google <colour> diamond, you'll find many. The reason why they are green is pretty simple explained, it looks best. I've tested it in red, yellow, blue and even gold, but none looked as good as the green one.

The test server will be up in about 5 minutes. Do not worry about too few hotkeys, the client with the extra fighting mode is in prepration already and will be launched as soon as it is fully functionable.

Really nice news! The diamond thing was needed since long time ago, I'd say since 3 years ago when i was at a "good" level xD
Also i missed the quest log, i'm happy to see these things in the game again! good job! :) |

Well Hyuga, I must say you surprise me every time I read your posts. I would be glad to compare you to Apple, that is so much better than Microsoft. By other words; no shortcomings, no bugs, no unfinished product but only superiority, style and quality. So I have to say Zezenia is growing in my eyes (and not only in mine I guess). Nothing more to add. BTW quoting doesn`t work properly. |
