You've had your snacks. Now it is time for the main course....

Upcoming next: Some words to describe an unexpected power...

The second feature teaser focuses on a straightforward quality of life improvement: making special conditions on the player character more clearly visible by displaying them inside the game window. At the same time, you will gain control over which conditions are shown and how they are prioritised. This feature is therefore completely optional and can be customised according to your own needs.

The most important facts about the display of special conditions in the gaming window in a nutshell:

• Special condition icons appear vertically in a bar to the left of the health arc, based on its default size.
• This special conditions bar can be displayed independently, regardless of whether you are playing with arcs on or off.
• A maximum of six icons can be displayed, if more special conditions are active, this is indicated with a "..." icon.
• Icons are shown in top-to-bottom order, based on your settings.
• A dark backdrop ensures the icons stand out against game visuals.
• The arc opacity slider also affects the opacity of the icons and their backdrop.

Furthermore, you will be able to decide which special conditions show up in the status bar and/or game window and choose the order they appear in. These things can be adjusted under Options → Interface → HUD.

• All special conditions that can affect your character are listed with icon and name and two checkboxes (one for status bar and one for the HUD in the game window). 
• Simply uncheck a box to hide that condition from the selected area (example: you can show the Protection Zone icon in the status bar, but hide it in the game window).
• Use arrow buttons to change the order of special conditions, just like sorting shortcuts. The same order applies to both the status bar and the game window.
• The special conditions for Resting Area, High Risk, Rotten Blood, and Mana Shield are each grouped under a single checkbox in the options.
• This feature is enabled by default for new client versions.

Hopefully, the fresh display of special conditions will be of value for you in many battles and enhance your overall gaming experience!

Dear Tibians!

With today's server save, we have made some further balancing adjustments to certain areas and creatures in Tibia:

Barren Drift

Evil prospector

• Fire damage reflection: 100 → 0
• Fire sensitivity: 100 → 105
• Ice sensitivity: 100 → 105
• XP 9,000 → 9,800 

Cursed prospector

• Energy destination spell: Distance modifier: 50 → 25
• Fire sensitivity: 100 → 105
• Ice sensitivity: 100 → 105
• The trigger chance of the holy chain damage now scales with the number of dead prospectors and is displayed via a new indicator. If that indicator is green, you are safe, if it is red, beware.

Misguided Hideout

We added a passage to make hunting easier.

Misguided bully

• Reduced healing: 450 → 180
• XP 1,200 → 1,800 

Misguided thief

• Reduced healing: 350 → 140
• XP 1,200 → 1,600 

Iksupan Occupied Sanctuary

We have reduced the respawn.

Mitmah seer

• XP 4,580 → 4,900 

Additionally, we resolved the following issues:

• We fixed an issue where the +1 fist fighting skill bonus was not effective when the Virtue of Justice spell was active.
• Attacks no longer stop or delay when moving with a held arrow key.
• Chain spell ranges are no longer shorter than intended after the latest update.
• We fixed an issue where the total price was no longer calculated correctly when trading with an NPC in some cases.
• We fixed an issue where the Desert Dungeon quest could be disrupted with a destroy field rune.

We also congratulate the gaming worlds that were the first to defeat Rotrender. There is a small change in this regard: Rotrender has learned a lot and is becoming even stronger. To be more precise: Rotrender now heals on red rifts. It is no longer possible to prevent healing by holding the creature on red or blue rifts.

Happy hunting,
