A New Build is OUT - Patch 1.1501207T - Codename: Winter Canvas (Patreon)
Content
Hey everyone,
It’s that time of year again and so we at Lost Pilgrims wanted to wish you all Happy Holidays! Enjoy your well-deserved rest, spend time with your loved ones, or just chill, play your unplayed games, read, eat, or do whatever makes you happy.
We are winding down as well after we take care of a few things and although we’ll monitor the usual channels, we’ll hunker down until early January because the last half a dozen months have been quite exhausting for the Pilgrims.
Of course, we wouldn’t want to leave you without something of a holiday gift as well as a bunch of fixes we’ve been busily working on with a lot of help from our awesome community. The former is a quest that is available to any vagrus with enough Handjari reputation to visit Prince Faisal, called ‘The Canvas of Fate’. It’s replete with tragedy, ambition, and a dedication to art – we hope you’ll like it.
As for the fixes, the list below provides the most important ones, so let’s jump right in.
Important Note I.
It has also come to our attention via crash reports that for some reason, quite a number of our players are on earlier versions of the game (pre-hotfixes). So please make sure that Vagrus is updated to the latest version at all times.
Important Note II.
Considering the extent of the improvements, there is little to no chance that we broke nothing in the process. Assume that we did not want to make anyone's life harder. If you see something amiss, please flag it to us using the usual channels, like the inbuilt reporting tool (F1 button), forums, and our Discord server.
