Patch notes - April 29, 2023

2 years ago - April 29, 2023

Greetings Adventurers,

Here are the latest update details for 4Classic 4Story on April 29, 2023 (Sat). Today’s patch is approximately 169MB.

Battle of Iberia

We have heard your concern the current situation of Battle of Iberia and have done some changes to try and make battles more balanced and fun.

  • New Matchmaking
    • Balanced by gear -> class -> player count
    • As a result, you are no longer able to put items into your inventory during the Battle of Iberia queue and the battle.
    • Joining during warmup is no longer possible, as it did not take any balancing (beyond player count) into account.
  • Hotswap System
    • If the game detects that 80% of one side is pushed into their base, a reset is initiated.
    • Players of both nations will be teleported back into their base, as if the game had just started
    • The game will take one strong team (from the queue, not your group) from the stronger side and switch it with a team from the weaker side.
    • This system activates 2 minutes after the battle starts.
    • Once a hotswap is initiated, it takes 20 seconds for players to reset.
    • It has a cooldown of 5 minutes.
  • Safezones
    • The Safezone system has been reworked.
    • Every map now has 2 stages in their base, an outer and an inner.
    • Running into the enemies outer safezone, will leave you with a 3 second slow debuff, which gets reactivated every second that you are inside the zone
    • If you keep on pushing into the inner safezone, you will receive 1000 damage every second. It doesn't matter if you have a shield, are invisible or have no target.
    • These safezones are applied to both players and evocator pets
  • Maps
    • Gebra
      • The Gebra map is back. We have made adjustments so that it can hold a larger amount of players.
      • The map has been elongated, so that if one side is at a disadvantage, killing players will leave them with a longer walkway, which should give the weaker side a chance to come back
      • Available with 65 registered players and above
    • Bina (Large)
      • The map has been elongated, so that if one side is at a disadvantage, killing players will leave them with a longer walkway, which should give the weaker side a chance to come back
      • Available with 65 registered players and above
    • Bina (Small)
      • Available with up to 65 registered players.
    • Highlands
      • Available with up to 65 registered players.
    • Ardir
      • Available with 65 registered players and above
    • Tarat
      • Converted Capture the Flag Tarat map to be suitable for Battle of Iberia
      • Available for all registered player amounts.
    • Hod
      • Converted Capture the Flag Hod map to be suitable for Battle of Iberia
      • Its available with 65 registered players and above
