The final version of update 1.18.2 will be available soon and will be a mandatory version.
It brings fixes to the performance issues encountered by the 1.18.0 and 1.18.1 clients, as well as its share of new features.
A BETA version of update 1.18.2 is available today on our test server. All players who have never received an in-game sanction can log in using the test client (download information below). Characters from normal servers have been transferred to the test server.
Reports about bugs encountered on this update should be sent directly to support, in the section dedicated to the test server. Comments about the 1.17.1 beta version should be posted in the "Test Server" section of the forums available here.
The 1.18.2 beta can only be downloaded via the BitTorrent protocol, like all test versions.
Here is the list of additions and changes brought by update 1.18.2:
Graphics:
The turn-start illustrations as well as the illustration on a character's information panel now use the colors of the character concerned.
Interface:
It is now possible to be notified when a friend who also has you on their friends list logs in, by checking the associated option in the friends list.
Fixes:
- The performance issues of the 1.18.0 and 1.18.1 clients should be resolved.
- All sounds are back.
- It is no longer possible to put a signature rune into rune-crafting before reaching profession level 100.
- Various fixes to several client features.
Note: this list of changes only contains the technical additions and improvements and will be completed by the list of gameplay additions and improvements coming with 1.18.2 during the course of the week.

Shields:
Shields (equippable ones, not shield spells) now only reduce "melee" type attacks (with weapons) and no longer reduce spell attacks, in order to increase the value of using spells during "player versus player" (PVP) fights.

Mounts:
- The bonuses of the Golden Dragoturkey are increased.
- Male mounts can no longer lose the list of their ancestors.
- Mounts now have a bonus of 20% additional experience when their owner gains experience in combat. For example, a character who gives 0% experience to their mount during fights will still let it gain 20% without having to sacrifice experience. A player who gives 90% of their experience to their mount will grant it 110% total by only sacrificing 90%.
- Mounts can now breed starting from level 5.
- Stables now have a maximum capacity of 50 mounts.
- Mounts can now only breed a maximum of 10 times, before becoming permanently sterile.
- The "Garde Montay" NPC at Amakna Castle now offers to exchange mount certificates for experience and characteristic scrolls.
