Mount Rework — stats, unique combat effects & new taming We reworked the top mounts. Each now gives flat str/dex/int and its own combat effect. All values live in one config, so we can tune them anytime. Stat bonus (str = dex = int each): Energy Vortex +155 · Armored Steed +140 · Vampire Pet +130 · Large Wolf +120 · Giant Beetle / Skeletal Mount / Hiryu / Unicorn / Ice Bear / Sweet Bear +100 Unique effect per mount: Energy Vortex — +5% weapon damage and −5% incoming damage Armored Steed — −5% incoming damage Vampire Pet — +5% lifesteal (melee and spells) Large Wolf — +5% weapon damage Unicorn — +7% spell damage Skeletal Mount — +10% critical strike chance Hiryu — 5% chance to deal +50% bonus damage Giant Beetle — 15% chance to Major-poison your target (works through Anti-Poison fish) Ice Bear — 5% chance to freeze your target ~1s (icy-weapon stun) Sweet Bear — 10% chance to paralyze your target (works through Anti-Paralyze fish) New taming requirement for Giant Beetle, Skeletal Mount, Hiryu, Unicorn, Ice Bear and Sweet Bear: 310% taming + a full +10 Taming set (10 items) that burns on tame + a Sunfury Crook. (Vampire Pet & Large Wolf: 310% + the burning set. Armored Steed: also needs 5 Mystic Eggs. Energy Vortex: buy from the website Shop → Mounts for WGP.) Stat bonuses swap cleanly when you change mounts, and effects apply live while you ride. Full table: Library → Taming on the website.

Buffed: Archers total damage for +7% Added: Now when you hit Serpent's Crystal you get 50% more damage from other players for 3 sec. Each hit renews timer. Talent System — Bugfixes & Reworks Big pass over the class talent trees. Many talents were dead, mis-wired, or silently doing nothing — all reviewed and fixed.  Warrior Berserk now works — it was accidentally scaling off Swordsman instead of maces. Enrage now works — the buff was completely inactive; timer logic fixed. Iron Skin & Crusher — fixed armor/armor-ignore bugs (were reading the wrong character). Spell Ward — implemented: up to 70% chance (at max rank) to resist stat-draining spells (Curse/Clumsy/Weaken/Feeblemind…). Murder — implemented: bonus damage vs monsters. Grand Protector — implemented: bonus armor vs monsters. Vanquisher — now correctly applies only with maces. Archer Piercing Arrows & Hardened Leather — fixed (armor-ignore/armor bugs). Master Thief — implemented: up to 70% chance (at max rank) to avoid being revealed while hidden. Master Hunter — now also boosts damage vs demons, not just dragons. Aspect of Shadows — fixed: now scales with rank (up to 10% at max) instead of a broken flat roll. Heavy Armed & Holy Arrows — now correctly restricted to bows. Mage Fire / Arcane / Destruction Mastery — now always grant their damage bonus (previously required an equipped Powerbook with charges). Arcane Fortitude — implemented: reduces your chance to be critically hit. Spirit Heal — fixed: it was blocked in all normal combat and never fired. Quality of life: proc-based talents now print Talent worked: <name> when they trigger, so you can see them working. Also in this patch Serpent's Hold Battle: re-entry portal cooldown increased 15s → 25s. Color Tournament: fixed an exploit that let players sneak a held potion/item into the arena. Dark Ghost weapons reworked — stamina drain now scales The Dark Ghost set no longer drains a flat stamina amount — it now hits a percentage of your maximum stamina: Dark Ghost Bow & Dark Ghost Mace — drain 40% of the target's max stamina on proc. Dark Ghost Shield — drains 25% of the attacker's max stamina on proc. This makes the drain consistent against high-stamina targets (mounts, high-DEX builds) instead of being a fixed hit. Proc chance and the anti-NPC "Handle!" effect are unchanged.

Changed: Serpent's Hold battle mechanic - Now when battle starts first creates 4 Basic posts and 1 Grand post (grand post location also changed, now it is same where crystall spawns), after all 5 posts are captured they spawn Serpent's Crystal.
