Patch Notes – Rising Tides: Release the Kraken! – 09.2024
RELEASE THE KRAKEN
Entering the LONG SHADE adventure world now gives a new questline, featuring Saltwater Sam & his crew! As players move through this questline, they will get crafting access to “Depth Stepper: Deep Kraken,” allowing them to seek out and defeat the Deep Kraken itself, found within the watery Depths delve biome.
Check your Quests UI (default key: i) in the “Quests” category for the “Find SALTWATER SAM in the LONG SHADE” questline!
Regardless of quest completion, Trovians who have unlocked the Deep Kraken’s memento can craft the Deep Kraken Depth Stepper at the Delve Workbench, and Gateway Gladys will happily sell Deep Kraken Depth Steppers for 200 credits.
The HERALD OF THE DEEP KRAKEN is a new NPC that will spawn in “The Depths” delve biomes after any boss when a Runic Depths Vault spawns. Utilizing Kraken Shell Fragments (as well as other materials), this NPC will allow players to craft 8 new collectables (5 pets, 1 Mount, 1 Mag Rider, and 1 set of Wings), and 1 new BUFF, available for Trovians with 200+ skill in the Mysticism profession! While the Deep Kraken is a great source for Kraken Shell Fragments, they can also be found within the Runic Depths Vault, and from enemies encountered during the Kraken questline!
NEW WATER FISH
Dust off your tackle-box, 16 new Depths-themed fish can now be found by fishing in FISH POOLS in WATER in the Long Shade difficulty (6 common, 6 uncommon, and 4 rare).
The rarest of these fish can only be obtained using the “Pole of the Deep.” Once all 6 ‘uncommon’ Depths fish have been collected, you can solicit help crafting this pole from Murkwater Mark, on Sam’s ship found randomly throughout the Long Shade.
NEW 5-STAR DEPTHS DUNGEON
A second Depths themed 5-Star dungeon can now be found & completed in Long Shade worlds!

- The texture block must be exactly 12 voxels tall, wide and long. Not less, not more.
- The texture must loop perfectly with itself.
- There can be from 1 to 6 different sides on a single texture block, but the fewer the better!
BUG FIXES
- Fixed an issue which caused Draconic Titles to be permanent, rather than temporary. The consortium of Trovian Dragons worry they may never financially recover from this oversight.

- Fixed an issue that prevented Delve boss health from rising above 1 billion
- Fixed an issue that would cause the Mystical Mecha mount to appear invisible to other players. Also fixed an issue that would prevent this mount from being equipped unless you had 150 Mysticism skill.
- Fixed a missing text error in the effects window for the Bard ultimate ability
- Fixed an issue that would cause Gearcrafted face equipment items to have the Physical Damage stat on them for Bards… again
- Fixed an issue that prevented the “Fast Invasions” event from working in Long Shade difficulty worlds
- Fixed an issue with the “Decorative Flooring” tome recipes on the Delve workbench, which prevented them from showing the required Runecrafting skill in the recipe tooltip
- Fixed an issue preventing Hair and Eye color from saving properly when randomized at the Barbershop
- Fixed an issue that would cause “Pot O’ Gold” to show up in dungeons even outside of the St. Qubeslick event
- Fixed an issue that was causing Glowstriped Orange and Red, Glowstriped Dark Red and Yellow, Glowstriped Yellow and Green Stylish Blocks to have a missing texture on their Top and Bottom sides.
