New World Adjusts Seasonal Narrative Content to Let People Finish, Fixes Bugs, and Confirms Server Merges
New World’s latest update is here, ending the Legacy of Crassus event until next time, fixing a bunch of bugs, and making several adjustments to narrative and stats for Eternal Frost content. The update is live, and a confirmed announcement is here for server merge plans.
Some special attention has been paid to Eternal Frost content to make it more accessible and let people finish it while the season is still running. Changes include boosting Daichi Sato’s health and damage output, reducing the solo trial Ice Guardian’s health, and reducing Moredred’s health in the Eternal Frost Soul Trial.
Several crashes are addressed, including an issue when entering and leaving Expeditions. Another issue that was preventing server transfers was also fixed, just in time for new server merges.
