We start off with all the changes we’ve made from your recent beta feedback!
Thank you to all who participated.

Looking at the player feedback changes, it's good to know OTM are finally listening to players more often

Your Community Manager has been going around twisting arms

Only bandage wound braces? Hope there's a serious buff to make all these sacrifice skulls useful.. and helms.. and spring of life.. lol

"All bounties now guarantee a drop of a bounty token, helping heroes towards their Pet / Battle Mount of choice."

This is nice indeed.

Further items may be looked into in the future, Bandage Wounds was the first choice.

It's something, love the higher tier increase! Can't wait to get a void sacrifice. Ha just pulling your leg. Glad otm finally going right direction

But I really wanted a godly bandaged wound brace. This is upsetting...

We still have Godly Dragon Rings of Bandage Wounds from Aggy though!

- Boss Spawn Rate Increase
Boss spawn rates have now been increased (and windows decreased proportionately)
This means a 25% decrease to spawn time for Hrungnir, Mordris and Necro, 33% for Aggy.

So now we have to camp every 36 hours. Even though the 36 hour window is shorter, that still means more camping to players now. C'mon OTM. Players want decreased camping times overall.

I suggest 80 hour respawn, 2 hour windows.
