Update 45.1: Allies and Adversaries Release Notes

Here are the release notes for Update 45.1, released on Wednesday, July 30th, 2025.

News and Notes:

PvMP:

  • An errant multiplier for two-player groups in the Ettenmoors has been corrected. The error was reducing the amount of Infamy/Glory to 5% instead of providing a 5% bonus before dividing the amount of Infamy/Glory earned.
  • Keys rewarded at Lugazag and Tirith Rhaw for capturing the location are now unique.
  • The keys of Lugazag and Tirith Rhaw now grant properly when flipping a keep to your faction.
  • Chests in the Towers that grant rewards will now lock so they can be used by other players.
  • Rewards from chests at the Towers now provide a decaying reward package item. This is done to ensure that the loot in the chest is able to respawn.
  • Players and Monster Players will no longer trigger aligned cauldrons at the towers of Lugazag and Tirith Rhaw.
  • Gates will no longer hold players in combat after being attacked at Tirith Rhaw and Lugazag.
  • Health bonuses on the gate now stack correctly and apply a lesser value.
  • Tomes of Defence have been added to Outpost barterers for 175 Marta for both Free People and Monster Players.
  • Burglar's "Hiding in Plain Sight" now correctly activates "Sneak" within the Ettenmoors.

Miscellaneous:

  • The Forester Crafting Event will now provide its correct reward.
  • We have removed the 15th Legendary Items Reward Track that debuts August 20th from the 32-bit game worlds. We do not want players to begin this track just prior to world closing and have to restart progress on their 64-bit game world. The 15th LI Reward Track begins at 10:00 AM Eastern (-4 GMT) on August 20th. Reminder that Character Creation is no longer available on our 32-bit game worlds.

    • "A Sure Thing" damage now correctly applies to your current target.
