The Tides of Corruption update for VR MMORPG Ilysia has already brought a lot of changes, but there are even more changes on the horizon, as evidenced by the patch notes from the latest PTR build, which introduce additional new systems and further gameplay improvements.
After a period of silence, developer Ilysia announced last month that they were working on reworking much of the game, which is currently in Early Access, and released their biggest update yet, featuring a brand new tutorial, reworked starting level content, new story quests, and more to the core game.
0.4.2 will see the first version of guilds that they want to test. Patch notes have not been released yet, but in a message posted on Discord, the developers announced the arrival of the PTR and some early details. In addition to guilds, XP and loot changes, armor costs, and some fixes will be made.
The rest of the build makes a number of changes to existing features, including several combat-related updates that fix armor values and damage mitigation, add extra threat to melee weapons if a shield is equipped, fix shield bash attacks, and allow shields to recharge faster.
