Changes in Gameplay
Elements
Poison will not be a standalone element anymore, it will be part of the new "earth" element.
There will be three new elements; ice, holy, and death, as well as new spells for every element (see below).
Party
This update will also introduce the ability to share experience in a party. The leader of the party will have the option to turn this feature on and off and all party members who contribute to the killing of a monster or healing of party members will get equal experience. Shared experience can only be activated in a party and only by the leader.
Conditions
There are certain conditions that need to be fulfilled for shared experience to work.
- level of the lowest character in the party must be at least 2/3 the level of the highest character in the party (that means for example, level 40 and level 60 can still share, level 200 and 300 can also share)
- the distance of all party members to the leader must be smaller or equal to 30 fields (yelling distance), also works one floor up and one floor down
- all party members must have contributed to the party within the last 2 minutes (healing a party member or attacking an aggressive monster)
States
Shared experience has 3 states:
- off: experience is distributed as usual according to damage dealt
- on and active: if all conditions are fulfilled, experience will be distributed evenly between all party members (rounded up). If a member does not have enough stamina, his share of the experience will be reduced accordingly, the shares of other party members stay unaffected, Soul Points can only be gained if the individual share of experience gained from one monster is larger than or equal to the level of the character. If a member has summons, those summons will receive their part of the experience before shared experience is calculated.
- on but inactive: if one or more conditions are not fulfilled, shared XP will automatically be deactivated until all conditions are fulfilled again. Experience is distributed as usual according to damage dealt.
Every party member can see the state of shared XP on his party icon; it is also displayed who causes shared XP to be inactive. Shared experience only works for experience gained from monsters; on PvP-enforced worlds, experience that is gained from player killing will be distributed as usual according to damage dealt, no matter whether shared XP is active or not.
Swimming
Players will be able to jump in the beach waters. The swimable areas will be closed for the safety of the tibians so they can have fun by just wading or playing Waterpolo with other tibians.
Vocation Balancing
Druids will not rely so much in energy and fire spells anymore, instead they will focus in ice and earth spells (the poison element will be replaced with the earth element). The existing spells will receive new names and just like the current spells, there will be a possibility for the other vocations to master them, just not as accurately as the mage class. Also they will be better healers than Sorcerers, although their offensive spells will cost more mana.
Knights will be able to manipulate the elements as well, for a limited time span, with the aid of the Tibian magicians. Mages can enchant their weapons with magical gems, that can be refilled with magic at secret holy shrines that are only accessible to players with a premium account. Depending on the magical gem that is used, a certain elemental strength will bestowed upon the chosen weapon. This will convert a normal weapon into an elemental weapon.
Paladins will master one of the new elements, the holy element. Paladins will receive an entire new arsenal to fight off undead beasts. Furthermore, they can have their arrows and bolts enchanted with certain elements to inflict devastating damage upon the creatures.
Sorcerers will now be the main users of fire and energy. They will also be decent healers because of their high magic level, but not as good as Druids.
