IntroductionTop ^

Welcome to the initial public testing period for the Trove – Adventures expansion! These notes provide detailed information about all the great new systems and content available with the update. While most of the features are nearing completion, please be aware that the content you experience may change prior to release of the update. This includes recipe ingredients, reward values, availability of systems, and gameplay balance. You will notice that some systems have yet to receive a final treatment but part of that is also due to us leaving room to incorporate your feedback. We know that there are a ton of notes but appreciate you taking the time to skim through them. 

Some systems (like Tethering) are in a phase. This means we need to evaluate how they perform in a populated environment before we add them to the live game. If you see the tag on an update note, please try it out and let us know what you think. We hope you enjoy playing Trove – Adventures!

Character Copy to PTSTop ^

  • Characters can now be copied from Live PC to PTS by using the /exportaccount command on Live. This will not copy club worlds.
  • This will completely overwrite your PTS character with your Live character, including your cornerstones.

Clubs 2.0Top ^

  • Welcome to a new club experience.
  • The entire club UI has been renovated to support Adventures, Fixtures, and all the new Club Permissions. – open the club UI and use the Gear button to see all the specifics for that club!
  • Clubs can now level up as players complete adventures from the club. The club’s level controls what fixtures are available. There is a daily cap on the amount of experience a club can gain that scales with the number of members.
  • There is now a Club HQ building in the hub world, replacing the club portals.
  • The Club HQ has portals that lead to club worlds which are:
    • Popular (based on likes)
    • Small but Active
    • New Fixtures (based on clubits spent in the past week)
    • High Power Rating
    • Random
  • To appear in the Club HQ portals, a club must have spent at least 1 clubit in the past week; this is to prevent inactive clubs from appearing.
  • Going through these portals will place the player at the Rally of Heroes fixture in that Club World.
  • Fixed a bug where sometimes the first person in a club to log in was not listed as online within the club UI.
  • Club names are now displayed below the player’s name – an option to hide these can be found in the Settings menu.

Club AdventuresTop ^

  • Heroes (Adventure NPCs) can be spawned at the Rally of Heroes fixture in a Club World.
  • Heroes are classified in several rarities: Common (White), Uncommon (Green), Rare (Blue), Epic (Purple), and Legendary (Orange).
  • Each Hero will remain spawned at the Rally of Heroes for a set amount of time. During their visit, they may fall asleep. These specifics may be managed by a Club Member with the necessary Permissions on the Adventures tab of the Club window.
  • The type of Adventures that Heroes give out may change over time. Their specific adventure tables are also improved by the addition of the Repose of Heroes fixture.
  • Completing Adventures grants a new type of reward currency called Adventurine (Inventory > Flux Tab > Dragon Coin Tab > Club > Adventurine). Patrons receive a bonus 33% Adventurine.
  • Players can complete up to 220 Adventures per day – this cap is intended to be higher than any player is likely to complete in one day.
  • Adventurine can be spent to buy these rewards:
    • New Club décor from the female merchant in the Club HQ at the Hub World
    • New Mounts, Styles, Allies and LED Block Recipes from the male merchant in the Club HQ at the Hub World
    • At the Travelling Merchant fixture (Tier 1-3) in a Club World
      • Must be a member of the club to access the Travelling Merchant
      • T2, and T3 Travelling Merchants sell additional items for Adventurine like Blocktron Dragon Egg Fragments, Club Empowered Gem Boxes, Aura: Atom Sphere, and Aura: Restless Remnants
      • Club Empowered Gem Boxes contain a random, guaranteed Radiant Empowered Gem
    • Converted to Clubits at a 10:1 ratio at the Clubit Minting Machine on the Trovian Clubit Union or T1/T2 Travelling Merchant fixtures
    • Converted to Clubits at an 85:10 ratio at the Grand Clubit Minting Machine on the Tier 3 Travelling Merchant fixture
  • Only a limited number of Adventures may be taken simultaneously – the current limit is 3 from your primary club, and 3 from other people’s clubs.
  • Incomplete Adventures will disappear from the Adventure Window one week after they were taken.
  • Adventures are completed immediately when their objectives are finished regardless of the player’s location or if the NPC is still spawned.
  • When an Adventure is completed, Club Experience is granted to the club it was taken from.
  • Unwanted adventures can be abandoned at will.
  • (PTS only) The Hero NPCs are still being a bit shy and are refusing to get their pictures taken until they collectively have a good hair day. Don’t worry, they’ll have icons in the Adventure window before the update goes live.

Club FixturesTop ^

  • Fixtures are buildings that can be placed in Club Worlds to unlock mechanics, buffs, and even loot chance increases.
  • Benefits from Fixtures only apply in PVE – no placing a Mount Menagerie to get bonus jump in Battle Arenas!
  • At level 1, clubs can only place Base fixtures. Additional fixture slots will unlock as the club levels up.
  • Fixtures can be purchased from the Merchants located on the Trovian Clubit Union fixture. They can be upgraded, placed, or removed by a Club Member with the necessary Permissions on the Fixtures tab of the Club window.
  • The active benefits granted by each fixture can be viewed from the Club list (only for the primary club) and also from the Fixtures tab.
  • Fixtures cost Clubits up front when placed. Each fixture can be upgraded twice for additional Clubits (and an additional increase in weekly costs!)
  • Fixtures require rent (paid weekly) to keep their buffs activated. Placing a fixture for the first time will immediately charge the upkeep cost; upgrading a fixture does not immediately charge rent again, but will increase it.

    • AccessControl – Allows the player to use the ‘/zonerestrict’ command to define Basic, Modify, or Expert modification permissions per Club World zone.

  • Choose what to show in the HUD: Club Adventures, Event Adventures, or Expertise Adventures. Even control whether to see the Star Bar or Tomes Bar.

  • The option to hide challenges and objectives has been moved out of settings and can now be found in the Adventures Window.

FrameworksTop ^

  • Framework recipes have been added to the Workbench, Forbidden Workbench, Haunted Workbench, Candy Workbench, Store, and Mastery Rewards. These new recipes allow players to craft and place entire structures in their Club World.
  • The Forbidden Workbench now has Advanced Frameworks. These recipes have a rare chance to drop from Forbidden Spires recipe dungeons.
  • The Radiant Watchtower and Shadowy Watchtower can be found in the store, each of which grant one ready to place framework and unlock the recipe.
  • Once placed, these Frameworks cannot be picked up again. They can only be deconstructed into individual blocks and decorations.
  • Blocks that overlap where a Framework are placed are dropped as loot.
    Forbidden Spires Biome

  • The Spire Spirits Adventure Box – containing the Frolicksome Fox Spirit and Crimson-Crested Crane mounts – can now drop from any world.

Tethering [Public Evaluation]Top ^

  • Tethers are a new way for players to group up and share XP and loot. Each tether gets an icon and name, and by default these appear in nameplates and in the upper left corner of the UI.
  • To create a tether, just use the Tether hotkey and look at another player to automatically invite them to a tether. The same hotkey can be used to leave an existing tether or kick another player. (Only the tether’s leader can kick a member.)
  • By default, the tethering hotkey is Ctrl-E on PC. On Xbox and PS4, tethering actions can be performed by holding down the button used to switch between adventure and build mode.
  • XP and loot from killing NPCs is now distributed only to individual players and members of a tether that have dealt damage to that NPC.
  • Players who move 500 blocks away from the tether’s leader will automatically be kicked after 30 seconds.
  • Options for Tethering can be found under Settings > Social. Tethers can be automatically rejected from all sources, automatically accepted from friends and club members, automatically accepted from anyone, or set to always manually accept or decline. The display of Tethering icons can be set to show only the player’s icon on the nameplate, everyone’s icons, or no one’s icons.

MasteryTop ^

  • The Mastery Points required to achieve Mastery Rank 0-300 is unchanged. Above 300, players will need half the targeted Mastery Rank in Mastery Points to Progress. For example, 150 Mastery Points are needed to achieve Mastery Rank 301. 300 Mastery Points are required to achieve Mastery Rank 600.
  • Players with enough Mastery Points will jump from 300 to the appropriate Mastery Rank and receive all the benefits immediately.

Luxion of the Golden HoardTop ^

  • Luxion of the Golden Hoard has been spotted heading towards the hub.
  • Twice a month he will land and vend his artifacts and curios for a limited time in exchange for Dragon Coins. He will have some new items, some highly-sought items, and some timely goodies. Don't miss him - he will touch down on December 15th for the first time! Look for him in the Hub beside the Dragon Crucible.
  • Chaos Chests will still contain exciting new items, as well as the backlog of previous chaotic items, and very rare “permanent rares”. But they will no longer contain items that had been given out in Events or are otherwise no longer available. Instead, Luxion of the Golden Hoard will occasionally vend such items.

I'm sad about the removal of chaos coins for mastery. I'm getting close to 250...

But I have no hope ):

they need to make the tethering effect a group kind of thing were u can have up to 10 players in a group and you do not have to be in the same world to collect the loot a group member gets that way lets say its a dragon challenge were u have to complete dungeons this will enable 10 people to go to diff worlds and collect the points from dungeons while sharing the points they collect with there group members and also while in a group it combines 25% of all group members magic find and like above the leaders name there is a bar that says total groups magic find then this will also allow stellars to be a little easyer to find and allow high lvl people to help lower lvls lvl up faster and get key fragments faster and one mor ething this is also a way to get flux moving in the game insted of it mostly being stagnet were its extremly hard and takes for ever just to get a good amount of flux.

 

But this tethering were u have to be within 10 - 20 block of the leader and u dont get rewards unless u hit the boss is BS because high lvls like to raid low lvl worlds to get fast loot and other items and they can clear dungeons in less then a few seconds so this needs to change the only way tethering would be good is if it was applyed like my description.

 

If you think that my suggestion is a good idea reply with a grimlin face below.   (grimlen face)>

Anyone know if there still a chaos coin for 1k patron points?

far as i see chaos coins are going to be a pay to win thing and are going to become extremly extremly rare from only (GOLDEN and light and dark chaos chests) since they ar ethe only ones that give (past) rewards from chaos chests.

So Chaos Coins are replaced with other rewards and can't drop from chaos chests anymore. Does that mean we're left without main(?) ways to get these?

I'm stoked to finally see the mastery rank increase, I can't wait for the new rewards it will offer! Especially the dragon effigy... As for some changes, like the ring changes, they leave me skeptical. Trion has a tendency to... change things without taking the community or economy into account. It has happened with the Chaos chests, dragon coins, adventure mounts, corgis and cats, a lot of things that drove the economy at one point. Nevertheless Trove usually finds a way to get back on its feet. 

I also did almost miss the new biome by the way! It was weirdly formatted while it should be more of a topic, rather than a line under framework. It might also be hinting at a new class making its way to the game soon, no? Seeing how all classes are linked to a certain biome. Unless it's the Lunar Lancer's biome which just raises some more questions in my mind. 

And thank the lord for plasma fishing! I see no reason why this took ages from a design perspective.. Good to see our (relatively) new lead game designer intends to make good on his promises! Same with ringcrafting I suppose. These are some of the longer issues Trove has suffered from, I hope they'll also open up some long-standing bugs that have yet to be fixed.
