Here is the non-exhaustive list of additions and changes brought by update 1.17:
Graphics:
The maps of the Amakna area have been revised, the visual appearance of buildings and vegetation has been improved.
Professions:
It is now possible to repeat a recipe in a loop, by specifying the number of items to create.
Artisans now have a maximum success percentage for recipes whose complexity (number of cells) is strictly less than the maximum complexity of the recipes they can create by three cells.
Artisans no longer gain experience on recipes whose complexity (number of cells) is strictly less than the maximum complexity of the recipes they can create by three cells.
Experience gains when completing high-complexity recipes are increased.
Example: a level 60 artisan (able to make 6-cell recipes) will no longer gain experience by making 1-, 2-, and 3-cell recipes, but will have a 99% success rate when making 1-, 2-, and 3-cell recipes. On the other hand, they will gain much more experience by making 4-, 5-, and 6-cell recipes.
Rune-crafting:
Signature runes are no longer considered a non-natural bonus, and no longer degrade rune-crafting odds.
The minimum probability of changing element on a weapon goes from 5 to 10%.
The success probability when rune-crafting an item is increased.
The success probability when adding non-natural bonuses (bonuses that were not originally present on the item) in rune-crafting is increased.
It is no longer possible to gain experience when a rune-crafting attempt fails.
Rune-mages now have a base success rate of 94% (so they are considered master artisans) when improving items whose level is lower than or equal to their rune-crafting level. They have the normal success rate (depending on their rune-crafting level) when improving items whose level is higher than their rune-crafting level.
Rune-mages cannot modify items whose level is more than double their rune-crafting skill level.
Monsters:
Dark Bakers can no longer aggress players.
Dark Blacksmiths can no longer aggress players.
