New Content

-The official client mod has been updated.

https://github.com/jb0s/blockgame-enhanced/releases

-A new stat called Threat has been added to the game.

This increases the chance of enemies attacking you over your allies. Lower values decrease your chance of being targeted. Monsters will always attack the player with the highest threat. The Guardian ability Rock and Awe will always set the Guardian as the current highest threat target. This stat can be found under Offense stats in your /profile There are now talents to increase and decrease Threat.

-You now have Buff Categories to get buffs from different sources.

Food, Drink, and Brew buffs can work together simultaneously. Different buffs will say what kind of buff they are. Applying the same buff category will overwrite any active buff in that category. For example if you eat a new Food your old Food buff will be replaced.

-All food has been reworked to have temporary stat buffs.

Foods now increase buff strength as you level them up. Foods now all give 15 minutes of buff instead of 3-15 minutes based on level. Newly consumed food will remove all previous food buffs. Food is in the buff category of Food.

-Profession foods have been added to the game on Chef Axel Otto.

These foods buff a specific profession for 15 minutes. Profession foods are in the buff category of Food.

-All tea has been reworked to have temporary stat buffs.

These buffs are now incredibly powerful and limited. Teas have been reworked as Brews and have their own buff category. Tea and other potions are in the buff category of Brew.

-All Jam has been reworked to have temporary stat buffs.

Jam centers around utility based modifiers and slight health regeneration buffs.w Jam is in the buff category of Drink.

-Elite Monsters now have 30% more health.

This increase should further incentivize group play. With the new consumables in place the overall party output is much higher.

-A new profession called Hunting has been added to the game.

This now allows scaling drops from animals and gives bonus drops based on skill. There will soon be an armor set to support this new profession as well. Hunting animals can drop Vibrant Essence to offset farming difficulty.
