Welcome to Karamelle Test Realm! Upcoming Updates

AuthorMessage

Hello Wizards!

We’re so excited to welcome the community into the world of Karamelle (and introduce the rest of the features in our fall update as well!). We’re super jazzed that you love it as much as we do.

Here is a short list of some of the things we’ll have fixed for our next build:
  • Access passes were a low, low price of pretty much nothing. That’s been fixed.
  • Some enemies were using new rank 7 spells with no damage – we’ve adjusted that.
  • You’ll now find wisps around Karamelle and don’t have to rely on potions.
  • Mockenspiel spell now has sound.
We’re still working on them, so it's not an all-inclusive list, but these were the ones that were most frequently reported so far.

Please note that Test Realm is for testing and there are some things that are obviously still in flux. Here’s a few things that we’re aware of and still debugging (and how you can help us):

Crit is not functioning properly - both your critical hits and ALSO enemies. This, plus the fact that some bosses were casting no-damage spells made things a little too easy. Yes, if you’re a level 130 going into Karamelle with ALL the best gear/spells, you’re going to sail through this content pretty easily. It’s balanced to be achievable by someone at the same level that’s much less powerful. However, these two things (and perhaps some other things we haven’t yet found) are skewing the difficulty.

We’ve gotten a LOT of feedback on spells - know that we’re processing this and discussing changes and we’ll get back to you soon. Sometimes during combat, players are forced to pass even when they’ve selected a spell. If you encounter this, please report it and give as much detail as possible about the specifics of what happened in that round of combat.

Quest interaction issues - sometimes NPCs or MoBs won’t appear until after changing realms, logging out, or restarting instances. I’ve witnessed this myself on streams/in game during the quests below. If you find yourself with issues on these quests or others, please report as many specifics about what happened as possible.
  • Wilkommen to Karamelle
  • High-Fructose Actio
  • Secret Dross
Bug reporter crash – occasionally when using the bug reporter tool, it will crash your game. PLEASE stick with it and continue to report bugs (just log back in and report again).

How to submit a report about issues with the tool.

Another avenue to report bugs is right here in the forums. Please post in the Test Realm section, and then link your post to this one.

Keep in mind the items above are only the most prominent ones we’ve seen thus far – there’s many other issues we’ve fixed already for next week’s update. We’re actively scanning the forums, twitter, and we’ve been dropping into streams to get feedback as well, we just want to make sure we see it all!

Thanks as always to our community for testing, your feedback and bug reports have already been and will continue to be invaluable to us over the coming weeks while we get the fall update ready for live servers!
