A new build is launching for Mytheon which includes many improvements for our beta players. The server will be brought down at 3:00pm CDT for an estimated 2 to 3 hours for this update.
Which brings us too: Build Notes! Everyone's favorite time of the week.
This time we wanted to emphasize the degree to which we consider community feedback and so we have included a handful of the many posts that we took notice of. A big thanks to everyone who provided feedback, bug reports, and suggestions! Keep up the good work, and we will see you in Mytheon!
3/29/2010 Build Notes:
* Stabilized PvP and dueling instances.
---- "OMG.....If anybody duels...I...I....I'll cry T.T" Poster: power2go
* Scarab Hive Stone: This stone no longer uses projectiles, and instead summons scarab mobs. The restriction against targeting flying creatures has been removed.
* Spartan General Stone: The damage increase has been changed from a static number to a percentage to allow better scaling; the radius of the damage bonus effect has been increased (tooltip updated to reflect changes).
----"The Spartan General should raise the damage of the other companions and structures, but it doesn't. And the only reason somebody would have a Spartan in his deck would be this ability. So I hope the Spartan General gets fixed soon." Poster: SeaNymph
* Pitch Fountain Stone: The snare effect from multiple Pitch Fountains will no longer stack, it will just refresh the timer on the snare.
* The damage type on several bow weapons has been changed to allow for proper damage mitigation.
* The three giants in Tartarus now have standard stonecaster immunities. They also have had their health amounts equalized (all three have the same amount).
* The Broodling in Echidna's swamp can no longer insta-kill companions.
---- "Trying out my new merge in swamps, I summoned avatar of Gaia on Echidna, and...she didn't last even a second! I've actually seen broodlings do this before, on other companions, but didn't realize the scope of the situation." Poster: 6xekrin6
* Temple of War - Ares Event: The health of the four towers has been equalized and raised slightly; each tower can also now summon up to 5 mobs instead of just 3.
* Temple of War: Quests and Achievements that could no longer be completed due to the changes in the Ares event have been removed or updated.
* Many changes have been made to the Mount Olympus - God Event:
o All gods have had their health amounts adjusted
o The placement and spawn order of the gods has been changed
o Some gods' default weapon attacks have had their damage type changed
o Hades has received a new ability
And finally but by no means least,
* Client and server issues should no longer result in an unresponsive and flashing black screen that forces the user to close the program or restart their computer. If you encounter this anomaly, please contact us at support@mytheongame.com or help@mytheongame.com.
---- "As title says, Argos went down. Or I assume so. The game froze for some people (as I asked in chat if anyone else was freezing), not everyone. When I went to the hub, I got the famous flashing DC message." Poster: Yveske
