Season 5 Patch 5.0.2

Updated 4th June 2024.

Important Changes


-SERVER SHARDS-
Server shards are a brand new server layering system that dynamically and instantaneously puts players in instances of the same area on the map to preserve server memory when populated.

This will give increased performance and reduce desync at mass also including a dedicated PVP shard so PVE players do not need to be rendered.

To start off with AGS is testing this only in Monarchs Bluffs and Windsward the two starting zones before expanding the system.

-MOVEMENT & COMBAT FIXES-
Movement has been revised and patched fixing prior nuances introduced at the start of Season 5, including ice skating or "floaty movement" as it was often reffered to.

-MUSKET FIXES-
Musket has had its numerous bugs fixed such as dry firing, double shots and cooldown activations.

-MUSKET BLOOM CHANGE-
Musket changes also include the removal of bloom when aiming, now it will only deviate from your crosshair when strafing and moving. This means when standing still and tracking bullets will travel in the exact location of your crosshair.

-MUSKET ABILITY CHANGE-
The right ultimate passive on the musket tree Lethal Combo which grants 20% bonus damage on targets afflicted by debuffs on the right tree, will now work on any ability that applies debuffs on the musket tree.

This includes Powder Burn, Crippling Powder Burn & Shell Shock . Backdraft which is 12% additional damage on a burning target when stacked with Lethal Combo will now result in an additional 20% damage on consecutive hits on a burning target totalling 32%.
