Build 1550 – Jul 1 7:30AM

Previously, Tame Movement Speed was not making your pet move faster but giving it dexterity. This has been fixed. Tame Movement Speed will now make your pet move faster.

Skills and gems/jewel that previously had Tame Movement Speed now have Tame Creature Dexterity added to them along with the movement speed. Tame Movement Speed was previously showing a decimal number; it’s now showing a percentage to reflect the pet sheet. The Pet Speed Training innate skill will now give movement speed properly and dexterity as a second stat.

Now that wyverns have a higher base damage, their bonus critical damage multiplier while in combat mode has been reduced from 200% to 100% for PvE and from 100% to 50% for PvP.

Known Issues

R65 Green Growth potion box not yet rewarded, will be added later on.
Crashes may occur when running the game in MacOS Mojave. A workaround is to launch the game with -force-glcore (which can be added to the :*Launch Arguments box in the launcher options). There are also reports that 10.14.2 fixes this issue.
Party/Companion nameplates can be visually obscured if enough buffs are added for icons to wrap to three rows.
Visual quest indicators may be missing from compass. Adding the data to support them is an ongoing design process.
Pets cannot follow players onto moving platforms.
If an item’s name is in Runic, its flag as “Private Property” will also appear in Runic.
Players with Tenant permissions on a Lot cannot place their own Player Vendors.
Some decorations placed in basements may shift through walls and end up in inaccessible locations.
Players may be unable to interact with objects via double-click if their framerate is poor. A workaround is to use the “E” interaction key.
Some pledge, add on, and stretch goal items have not yet been built and/or do not yet have tech support.
Some virus programs with outdated libraries may attempt to quarantine essential game files, mistakenly identifying them as threats. This can have significant effects, including the client not starting at all. We recommend keeping antivirus programs updated frequently as they address problems. Workarounds include reinstalling and launching the client with the aggressive antivirus software disabled, or whitelisting the game directory in the antivirus list of exceptions.

Known Issue: Current vault item – Tower (Village Home) has incorrect store name and images. Previously it showed Wizard Tower, now it is still incorrect and shows Tower (Town Home.)

For example, /BulkSetItemPermissions trustee. This command should be used sparingly and with caution, be sure you understand what it will do before using it!

Welcome to Shroud of the Avatar: Forsaken Virtues Release 66! “How to Play” instructions and game update notes on Release 66 are available here.
Known Issues

When learning the “Hustle” emote, it will incorrectly say that you learned the “Calm Down” emote.
Previous vault items that were taken out of rotation were accidentally included in build 981, this will be corrected and they will be removed again in a patch.
Crashes may occur when running the game in MacOS Mojave. A workaround is to launch the game with -force-glcore (which can be added to the Launch Arguments box in the launcher options). There are also reports that 10.14.2 fixes this issue.
Elysian Illumination no longer damages undead, and has a broken range for applying heals.
Party/Companion nameplates can be visually obscured if enough buffs are added for icons to wrap to three rows.
Visual quest indicators may be missing from compass. Adding the data to support them is an ongoing design process.
Pets cannot follow players onto moving platforms.
If an item’s name is in Runic, its flag as “Private Property” will also appear in Runic.
Players with Tenant permissions on a Lot cannot place their own Player Vendors.
Some decorations placed in basements may shift through walls and end up in inaccessible locations.
Players may be unable to interact with objects via double-click if their framerate is poor. A workaround is to use the “E” interaction key.
Some pledge, add on, and stretch goal items have not yet been built and/or do not yet have tech support.
Some virus programs with outdated libraries may attempt to quarantine essential game files, mistakenly identifying them as threats. This can have significant effects, including the client not starting at all. We recommend keeping antivirus programs updated frequently as they address problems. Workarounds include reinstalling and launching the client with the aggressive antivirus software disabled, or whitelisting the game directory in the antivirus list of exceptions.

To encourage players to try out the new crown store, they will get a small 1 day long buff with any purchase. The buff strength is the same whether you spend 1 crown or 1000.

R56 Restart and Rollback

Welcome to Shroud of the Avatar: Forsaken Virtues Release 56! “How to Play” instructions and game update notes on Release 56 are available here.

We have to restart Release 56 and rollback to the game save state before we launched it this morning. We unfortunately skipped a step during the launch this morning and did not run a data migration for brewing which means that all brewing items might be in a corrupted state unless we rollback and relaunch.^[2]

+:*Party/Companion nameplates can be visually obscured if enough buffs are added for icons to wrap to three rows.

+*Welcome to Shroud of the Avatar: Forsaken Virtues Release 66! “How to Play” instructions and game update notes on Release 66 are available [https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/?p=107682 here].
+*Known Issues
+:*When learning the “Hustle” emote, it will incorrectly say that you learned the “Calm Down” emote.
+:*Previous vault items that were taken out of rotation were accidentally included in build 981, this will be corrected and they will be removed again in a patch.
+:*Crashes may occur when running the game in MacOS Mojave. A workaround is to launch the game with -force-glcore (which can be added to the Launch Arguments box in the launcher options).  There are also reports that 10.14.2 fixes this issue.
+:*Elysian Illumination no longer damages undead, and has a broken range for applying heals.
+:*Party/Companion nameplates can be visually obscured if enough buffs are added for icons to wrap to three rows.
+:*Visual quest indicators may be missing from compass. Adding the data to support them is an ongoing design process.
+:*Pets cannot follow players onto moving platforms.
+:*If an item’s name is in Runic, its flag as “Private Property” will also appear in Runic.
+:*Players with Tenant permissions on a Lot cannot place their own Player Vendors.
+:*Some decorations placed in basements may shift through walls and end up in inaccessible locations.
+:*Players may be unable to interact with objects via double-click if their framerate is poor. A workaround is to use the “E” interaction key.
+:*Some pledge, add on, and stretch goal items have not yet been built and/or do not yet have tech support.
+:*Some virus programs with outdated libraries may attempt to quarantine essential game files, mistakenly identifying them as threats. This can have significant effects, including the client not starting at all. We recommend keeping antivirus programs updated frequently as they address problems. Workarounds include reinstalling and launching the client with the aggressive antivirus software disabled, or whitelisting the game directory in the antivirus list of exceptions.

+:*Crashes may occur when running the game in MacOS Mojave. A workaround is to launch the game with -force-glcore (which can be added to the Launch Arguments box in the launcher options).  There are also reports that 10.14.2 fixes this issue.
+:*Elysian Illumination no longer damages undead, and has a broken range for applying heals.
+:*Party/Companion nameplates can be visually obscured if enough buffs are added for icons to wrap to three rows.
+:*Visual quest indicators may be missing from compass. Adding the data to support them is an ongoing design process.
+:*Pets cannot follow players onto moving platforms.
+:*If an item’s name is in Runic, its flag as “Private Property” will also appear in Runic.
+:*Players with Tenant permissions on a Lot cannot place their own Player Vendors.
+:*Some decorations placed in basements may shift through walls and end up in inaccessible locations.
+:*Players may be unable to interact with objects via double-click if their framerate is poor. A workaround is to use the “E” interaction key.
+:*Some spell VFX do not play properly
+:*Some textures may look incorrect due to optimizations (white, black, pink, low resolution, pixelated, etc.)
+:*Water lots in Dynamic Player Owned Towns cannot be placed on docks.
+:*Some pledge, add on, and stretch goal items have not yet been built and/or do not yet have tech support.
+:*Some virus programs with outdated libraries may attempt to quarantine essential game files, mistakenly identifying them as threats. This can have significant effects, including the client not starting at all. We recommend keeping antivirus programs updated frequently as they address problems. Workarounds include reinstalling and launching the client with the aggressive antivirus software disabled, or whitelisting the game directory in the antivirus list of exceptions.

+:*Water lots in Dynamic Player Owned Towns cannot be placed on docks.
+:*Some pledge, add on, and stretch goal items have not yet been built and/or do not yet have tech support.
