  • A rebirth is announced to everyone on Global chat in gold, naming the realm it happened on
  • A rune now needs a character level to socket and wear based on its rarity: Common 20, Rare 80, Epic 150, Legendary 250, Ancient 380
  • Two new Ancient runes for the Soul Master's weapon: Chain Lightning, which leaps between enemies on a cast or swing, and Drain Life, which steals life

  • A two-handed weapon makes a knight's skills hit 20% harder

  • A line in the chat now warns you when your pet or mount is badly worn, about to die, or has died
  • Auto-play's pickup settings add a separate switch for pets like the Guardian Angel, Imp and Horn of Uniria, off by default, so they stop filling your bag
  • Auto-play can now follow your active quest on its own, and while helping it answers party invites, declines trades, and buffs and heals your party
  • The chat window now separates where you read from where you talk: the tabs filter what you see, the channel follows the tab you choose or the word in the box, and each person you whisper with gets his own tab

  • A new Ancient tier of runes appears beyond Legendary, and the Soul Master's weapon can now carry Ice Storm, Weakness or Pollution

  • Elite monsters' warning bell now rings less often as you approach, and their minimap dot sends out pulsing gold rings
  • The chat window adds a Party tab and a Guild tab whenever you are in one, each tracking its own unread lines and channel
  • Talents now take longer to fill out: you earn points more slowly, so a whole tree is well out of reach by level 100

  • Excellent items now drop twice as often from ordinary monsters
  • A Jewel of Soul always succeeds on an item that already has luck
  • The chat window tucks itself away while the full map is open
  • Kantur's Legion is now two quests: Kantur's Legion pays its old full rewards to everyone, and finishing it unlocks Kantur's Captain, which pays your second class's weapon if you have changed class
  • The Broker's Buy card lists every requirement, the item's durability, and whether you already own it, and wings and other rare drops now stand out in gold; its Whisper button is a small line of text, and the picture no longer repeats the card in a tooltip
