Naaga Buffs:

• Increased drop rate of Naaga’s Key.

• The Baroness now has a chance to drop Medium Florid Satchel, Arachnids Key, Soul Shackles, Runes of Origins & Codex of Convergence.

• Baroness HP & damage have been enhanced, and her combat traits changed.
• It is now possible to leave Spider Baroness without completing the dungeon.

Guild Changes:

• You can now buy the land and invest in the buildings using the money from the guild's fund.
• Guild Blacksmiths will now share 10% of their payment with the guild(the gold is paid into the guild's fund).

Bug fixes:

• Added a fix for the problem with the skills missing too often. Let us know if it still happens.

• Changed the text of a specific trait of sura's Dark Twister to a more descriptive one.
• Fixed the issue of stones spawning inside the objects/buildings in Red Forest & Snakefield.
• Corrected description for Premium Package (30 days), in Romanian, as it showed an item (Inelul Limbii) that is not actually part of the package.

Visual Changes/Fixes:

• Fixed a visual glitch with skill animations during weapon and armor equip/unequip actions. Impacted skills: Aura of Sword, Berserk, Enchant Blade.

• Kingdom maps now show fog correctly.
