List of Newcropolis Updates

• Some creatures have either been removed or reskinned due to them not playing fairly with low level characters.
• To access the final boss, there is now a halt if someone else is already facing the final boss.
• You can not leave the final boss room if you need to, the timer to summon the final boss will remain the same, so you might be waiting in the Dark Sanctuary for awhile if you do this.
• The boss will attempt to chase you if it can.
• Creatures that are chasing you will eventually stop if enough time has gone by.
• You can now go backwards in the Hall of the Dead if you wish to find one of the hidden exits in an earlier room.
• P0 falls from the sky is corrected in all instances.
• The end NPC that awards the prize has a few new fluff statements that were in the drop down menu.
• The clues for the secrets of the Newcropolis now trigger a little quicker, but are still very rare. There are three, you can’t miss that you found one.
