Outlands Patch June 22, 2024 is an update for Outlands.
This patch introduces automatic house refreshing, new courtyard and warp tile travel rules for houses, hiding/invisibility restrictions within houses, item lift restrictions, changes to the Stealing skill, and a "Send to Bank" purchase option for Player Vendors.
Houses
The following mechanics now apply to both Private and Public Houses.
House Refreshing
- Houses will now be automatically refreshed each time the Owner of the house Logs In to the game world (regardless of location).
Courtyards
- The Owner of a house with Courtyards can now choose which types of players are allowed to Recall/Gate/Hike/Chivalry Travel to the house's Courtyard areas.
- The Owner can select whether Co-Owners, Friends, or Anyone are allowed to travel to the Courtyard areas with buttons on the "Special" house menu page.
- Any player who attempts to travel to a Courtyard location, but does not have proper access, will instead travel to the house's Ban Location (owners will always have access however).
Custom Warp Tiles
- Owners of a house can now purchase and unlock a Custom Warp Tile for a house under the "Special" page of the house menu.
- The Custom Warp Tile mechanic allows the Owner of a house to choose a Warp Tile Location within that house that will allow certain players to Recall/Gate/Hike/Chivalry Travel to that specific location.
- Once unlocked, the "Custom Warp Tile" button must be toggled to enable this mechanic.
- The Owner of the house can click the "Set" button to use their current location within the house and set it as the house's Warp Tile location.
- Any Friend of the house can click the "Show" button to see a visual indication of where the current Warp Tile Location is configured for that house.
- Players can now Mark any location of a house for Recall/Gate/Hiking/Chivalry Moongates for the purpose of using Warp Tiles.
- The Mark location does not have to be the exact location of the house's current Warp Tile location, but must be somewhere within the house.
- If a player with proper access attempts to Recall/Gate/Hike/Chivalry Travel to a Marked location for a house with a Warp Tile established (and the destination isn't part of a Courtyard) they will be sent to the Warp Tile location of the house.
- If a player attempts to travel to a house and does not have proper access, they will travel to the house's Ban Location.
- If a player attempts to travel to a Courtyard location in a house that also has a Warp Tile configured, the mechanics for Courtyard Travel will take priority.
Hiding/Invisibility
- Players cannot become Hidden or Invisible inside of a house unless they are either a Friend of the house or have a Rental Vendor in the house (if this occurs, they will automatically be revealed and prevented from any form of Hiding/Invisibility for the next 10 seconds).
Prevent Non-Friendly Lift Status Items
- The following items have a "Prevent Non-Friendly Lift" status and cannot be Moved/Lifted by any player in a house unless they are Friends of the house:
- House Deed
- Ship Deed
- Storage Shelf
- Resource Stockpile
- Wardrobe
- Prevalia Trunk
- Magic Item Vault
- Garden Shelf
- Arcane Rune Tome
- Aspect Item Tome
- Dyes Tome
- Fishing Map Tome
- Lore Page Tome
- Lumber Map Tome
- Mastery Chain Link Tome
- Ore Map Tome
- Outlands Collectable Card Tome
- Rare Cloth Tome
- Skill Mastery Tome
- Spell Scroll Tome
- Treasure Map Tome
Stealing
Restrictions
- Players cannot Steal items with "Prevent Non-Friendly Lift" status, regardless of location or relationship to the target player.
- Players cannot Steal items inside a House if the target player is a Friend of the house or has a Rental Vendor in the house (unless the target flags as Green to them).
Mechanics
- Players will no longer suffer a -25% Chance Penalty to Stealing attempts if Visible (i.e Not Hidden).
- Skill Cooldown for using the Stealing skill has been reduced to 5 seconds (previously was 10 seconds).
Player Vendors
- Players buying items from a Player Vendor will now have two Options to choose from:
- Purchase (Place in Backpack)
- Purchase (Send to Bank)
Purchase (Place in Backpack)
- Selecting this option will resolve the purchase as normal, placing the item purchased into the player's Backpack.
Purchase (Send to Bank)
- Selecting this option will increase the purchase price of the item by 5% (after any Guild Discounts) and will send the item to the player's Bank Box, or Queue the item for their Bank Box if insufficient space is available.
- Players cannot use this option if they currently have 125 or more items already Queued in their bank box.
- The 5% gold increase for this option will not be given to the vendor upon purchase, and will instead act as a server gold sink.
