1. NEW. Buff system In Reign of guilds buff system plays key role. Each character has 7 general slots for buffs and debuffs. When character is under debuff, negative effect puts in separate slot. When all slots are filled, character can’t get any additional effects including debuffs. When negative effect ends, one slot becomes unoccupied. Therefore new debuff can be applied for free slot. So, in order to successfully control enemy, you will need to remove his buffs first in order to apply debuffs. Spoiler: How to apply buffs on self: Take powder in hand (you can put the powder on hotbar then choose it); Press ALT+LMB Spoiler: How to dispel debuffs? Take powder in hand (you can put the powder on hotbar then choose it); Press ALT+LMB In order to use powders, abilities on other characters, you don’t need to press ALT button.

NEW Vocation system Early version of vacations and magic was built on rules and calculations and was…”dry”. When we moved to creation of technical items (like Tabula Rasa for stats reset) programmers tied to make the system more agile to get new variables after adding new content to the game in future. Newly created system allows us to create new content and balance current without additional headache, and we’ve decided to implement it to the magic system (mantras/powders/vacation abilities). This turned to be very versatile platform that allows to implement gamedesign ideas and new elements of magic faster and easier. For demoтstration of the system, we’ve implemented some vacation abilities 2.1.Crusader: 2.1.1. Divine Path - Teleports crusader into any point within 25m radius and puts “Slowdown” on nearby enemies upon landing (within 5m radius). RL: 1.5sec. Cooldown: 30sec. 2.2. Assassin; 2.2.1.

Cooldown: 5min. 2.4. Inquisitor; 2.4.1. Armlet of Obedience - puts debuff on target and disarms enemy for 30 seconds. RL: 2sec. Cooldown: 7min. 2.5.All vacations: 2.5.1. Empty buff. Applies on self/on target and takes 1 buff slot for 1 min (was added in order to vary the game on prototype stage. Won’t be included into final version). RL: 1s. Cooldown: 1s. Distance: 6m; 2.5.2.
