[2021] Testlive Update 2.3 (10.02.2021) - Isle of Siptah revamp, Offline mode, sprint attacks and more!

The LearnFeat, ForgetFeat, and ForgetAllFeats will only affect your own character. The [0/1] after ForgetAllFeats allows the option to also remove feats that were taught by NPCs rather than unlocked from feat points.

Derp.

Fixed now.

Added valid reason on changelog.

They are kept intentionally vague. They can be found around Siptah, partaking in any of the new or revised activities, as exploration rewards and so on.
We want you all to go out, explore and participate in what’s new on Siptah.

If still in need of more precise information, we’re sure our wiki masterminds will get that information on paper soon, or any of our content creators will have a highlight of the new stuff for those of you who don’t mind the spoilers (we heard there’s a camps location highlight video already out, by @Pixelcave ).

New content for the Exiled lands has been pinpointed on where to find it, however.

We’ll release a post in the near future with the exact locations that will be affected by the new camps, how the new settings will affect any existing buildings, as well as any terrain changes that could affect current buildings. We want to release this in advance and give enough time so people can prepare for it before it goes live.

This is not the update that expands the lands of Siptah, this is the update that revamps the already existing lands and content. New lands are coming in another update.

Let me quote myself from the same reply

To further specify, we have pointed out the content that has been revamped. i.e. new camps, Vaults reworked, Siptah’s purge. We want players to test that content by participating in it, not by reading a detailed list of what’s new in there. New rewards are given by participating in those activities.

Hello everybody,
