Funcom has announced a list of changes to tradeskills that will be coming some time between two days and a few weeks. Some of the more pressing issues with alchemy is the dev team#DY#s top priority, anything that crashes the client is bad.
I know many of you are concerned about what is happening to the Tradeskills/RnB (resource and building). I am writing this to inform you more about what we are doing and what is happening to tradeskills soon. I am also writing this in order to explain what has happened to the alchemy crash since todays patch.
Let me start with the bad stuff first.
First off, if you are an Alchemist, opening the tradeskill book by any means will crash your client since last patch. This will be fixed with thursdays patch.
This happened when we were re-arranging some of the potions for tradeskills. If you are an alchemist I#DY#m sure you remember some of the potions would not do anything when created. These potions have been removed from the inventory and will make it back into the game at a later stage. Removing these had an unexpected effect and was unfortunately overlooked by us when patching out the latest patch. We are sorry about this.
Let me assure you, if you are getting the crash, you are not bugged. The recipe book is simply trying to find objects that are no longer available and we have programmers looking into a safeguard for the future so that this type of thing does not happen again.
That#DY#s quite enough of the bad stuff. Now I#DY#ll detail what we plan on doing with Tradeskills and Resource and Building. Unfortunately, I am unable to give you a timeframe for the fixes and changes below, but we hope to get them done very soon. "Very soon" in this case means expect a few of the changes below to come in as early as thursday. Most of these changes we aim to have ready within a few weeks.
