Starting Monday, December 13, 2021, with the Publish of 7.400 to Live, the Crowfall Crowmas 2021 “Merry or Miser” event will begin! Read all about it here!

Group Loot

When in a group, players can now right-click their group member's unit frame to bring up the group loot settings window. Group leaders can change the loot settings for gold to be free for all or even split and for items to be free for all, roll or pass, or master looter.

The Round Robin rule has been added to the group loot settings. If this rule is selected by a group leader for an item quality category, loot distribution for items dropped of that quality will cycle between group members.

Also added a chat message when a player is passed over for getting loot due to having their inventory in overflow and a message that is sent to all members when loot is left on the corpse due to the loot being Free for All or if the loot can't be distributed to any group member due to inventory overflow.
 

 

The Mine Overseer's Tower

Beware the Tower of the Overseer! For too long, the Mines of the Dying Worlds have been getting picked clean by the Crows. In their hubris, the spirit of the Overseer has awoken once more and shackled the chests that were rightfully her own (before the whole dying thing). If they wish to continue gathering resources for their strongholds, they'll need to establish themselves as the new boss and take the Overseer's keys.

A new capturable parcel is in the world of Crowfall! The Mine Overseer's Tower is a capturable parcel that enables you to grab the Overseer's Keys buff from the top of the tower. With this buff, players will be able to go to the Mines and loot the chests present. Without the buff, these chests can't be accessed and the player will be directed to find the Overseer.
