Patch 6.1 prepares the game for the upcoming expansion and introduces over 30 updates and fixes to the core gameplay. In terms of the core game, the patch primarily focuses on QoL improvements. Some notable changes include:

• A new option on the map to display faction ownership of each region in the world.
• Filters added to the log page for easier navigation.
• A new game setting to enable character comments about the environment, including warnings about potential dangers during nighttime.
• The ability to move all alchemy ingredients to the alchemy bag with a single click.
• A new way to rearrange skill slots by dragging them.
• The addition of a class name for combinations of two or more classes.

We’ve also implemented another set of custom buffs for enemies across the world, based on feedback from testers. The lore in the almanac has also been updated to better align with the new story introduced in the expansion.
