Hi, Adventurers! This hotfix addresses several high priority issues as we begin tuning the Sorcerer and the Continuous Matchmaking features. We have scaled back the power of Sorcerer spells and perks that were too excessive. The update also fixes a setting with the Continuous Matchmaking that allowed players to spawn too closely to other players and monsters upon loading into the dungeons. Now that that issue is fixed, we will continue to monitor our logs and will adjust various factors such as the cutoff time for when new players can enter a session and number of players per floor. Please note that the values for these settings were set aggressively for the initial iteration so we could gauge the extremes. We’d also like to clarify that going down a level does NOT transfer you to a higher gear score session. The gear score of your initial dungeon will always determines the matchmaking pool until you exit that dungeon series. We encourage looting and trying to gain a gear score advantage on the upper floors as we believe there should always be a risk/reward consideration on when you go down a floor. We thank you for your patience and we’ll see you in the dungeons! [b]Changes:[/b]
