9/11/2012: Elona+ 1.10 has been released. Check the wikiwiki page above, the download link is on the front page. Back up your save folder before migrating to make sure your saves will be safe, This is supposed to be the final version of the South Tyris expansion. The development of the expansion will continue, with a new continent added. However, it will take a long time to complete.

Looking over the changes, here are a few differences in 1.10:

• PCC files seem to have a seperate folder now
• Coffin of necromancy displays level in the name of the monster(?)
• New monsters, evolutions, items, and skills
  • Fox brother and wisp (not known is this is normal or demon's soul) evolutions added
  • New monsters: mishaguzi and ek chuah (latter's sprite may be bugged, need confirmation)
  • Sugaar has the mishaguzi sprite tinted yellow, heqet has a new unique sprite
  • <Danger Swimwear> and <War Suit> artifacts added (unique sprites). These can be bought from Gavela "after a certain point in the game". Not sure when. To get one, it appears you have to give up your Awesome Swimwear. The options that appear when you talk to him are 30 pp for the war suit, and 20 pp for the swimwear, in that order. There is a 3rd option and the "goodbye" option when the menu appears, but it doesn't seem to do anything. If you have the swimsuit equipped when you choose, it will not disappear until you unequip it, which is obviously a bug. The options might only appear if you have enough platinum? It might be possible to get another awesome swimsuit from the Strange Scientist to get the other artifact.
  • Special actions: Megid Flame (elemental scar on visible enemies and removes their buffs) and Absolute protect (user takes damage instead of allies, might replace provoke on the defender?).
  • There is another learnable ability called Shining Wave, which is strength based and costs 20 SP. I do not know the requirements for it. It does a fairly significant amount of ranged magic damage to a target. It also has a new animation.
• Wizard harvest has been nerfed, with wish rods not showing up, or maybe showing up less often. Coins and medals might also drop less often, and gold gains seem to cap at 800 per pile. However, it now has a chance to create ancient books and treasure maps.
• Potions of potential effect is reduced from the huge boost in 1.09.
• With card decks, the domains have been removed and the cards are now divided by number.
• Blessed and cursed age lunches now act differently from normal ones.
• Material kits might be generated randomly in dungeons now.
• If you gain more AP from a kill, the AP notification is blue?
• Cost of doujou function have changed. It costs 10k to leave a pet, and something around 30k per pet per training, but with reduced effectiveness. I can't check the training thing yet since the doujou I had to use is bugged.
• Cost of running a "store" reduced. (Not sure if this is just for a shop, or building maint costs overall)
• Some additional (very bad) english added to some NPCs.
• Some kind of change to flying scrolls. Not sure if this is weight/PV or damage/accuracy.
• Quests have most of their names fixed now, so they have unique ones.
• Quickling corpse speed boost increased?

Changes from Elona

Updates

• September 4th 2012 - Added info on changed portraits and sprites in the North Tyris section,

South Tyris

• South Tyris now has actual content, and can only be accessed after completing the Main Quest.
• New towns, non-random dungeons and dungeon bosses.
• Defeating fast/tough monsters gets you AP, which can be spent by talking to the NPC Black Gauntlet <Leold> in Ruoza, the refugee camp.
• Music tickets can be traded with rich person <Stoke> in Arcbelc for herbs, diaries, and other rare items.
• On a minor note, the music list has been expanded to include new tracks. The track names have been provided in the maps' individual pages when possible.

North Tyris

• Many old important NPCs have new portraits, or have their portraits redrawn. All important NPC sprites and several of the sprites of NPCs in towns have been changed to fix the terrible resizes. A list of portraits and sprites is now here: Elona+ sprite and portrait updates.
• Just south of the Ancient Castle lies the Doujou. It allows you to leave pets to train slowly. The pets you leave there will not count against your pet limit.
• Leold (mentioned above) does appear at the Cyber Dome, but has not function other than to give out untranslated advice to new players. He will not offer real services until you complete the Elona Main Quest. After you do so, he will appear in South Tyris instead.
• Also, when the main quest is completed, <Gwen> the innocent . will become <Gwen> the pitiless, powering up to level 100. Additionally, her powered up version levels up when defeated.
• child <Wel> will appear in Larna, and sells Card packs for music tickets.

Race changes

• A couple of the NPC races have been changed, and a couple were added. Chicken has become Bird, Cerberus is Beast, Bike is Behicle and Centipede is Worm. These have presumably been changed since there are more NPCs that use these races. The actual changes to stats are minor. Also, there are three new races, Mazin, Bacteria, and Doggod.
• Two additional character "bits" can be set during NPC creation. These have been included in many of the new enemies. Bit 32 is cTemper, which apparently the ability to self-buff with a Rampage-like berserk. Bit 33 is cArmor, which seems to be damage reduction similar to, but less powerful than, metal-type enemies like bells. This can be seen in enemies like the Murder Knight.

Class changes

• Gunner and Predator can now be chosen by players as classes.
• Classes now have a hidden feat unique to the class. They are detailed here.

Skill changes:

• Traveling is now based on (and hence trains) speed rather than will, and also trains random skills when used.
• Magic Device needs to be at 20 rather than 16 to gain the Draw Charge and Fill Charge special actions.
• Performer gets less rewards, but is easier to use. However, it trains slower than before at higher levels. Much easier to use in town, although higher level NPCs will still stone you.
• Weight Lifting apparently trains faster for a player than pets, but it's hard to make out the translation.
• Swimming, once a joke in normal Elona, has been added as a real skill. It gives a speed boost while Wet. The increase in speed is (skill level / 2).
• Stealth allows you an increased critical chance if you haven't been seen yet. Landing a critical like this trains the skill. It apparently couldn't train for pets before, since it's mentioned that it does now.
• Gene Engineer and Detection now are used and trained at some gathering spots, detailed below.
• Disarm Trap will always work if you are standing on the trap and 's'earch.
• Gardening does not train when seeds are planted. (Instead, the value of the crop was planted at harvest time experience of their own has increased) Increased experience when harvesting the crops instead?
• Magic Device now affects potions. Potions also train the skill.
• Control Magic affects breath weapons.
• The following skills have changes but don't have an accurate translation
  • Riding: (Experience to enter a value on the skills of horse riding horse if you have a riding skill in riding, when you hit the attack of the horse. Riding skills to the up position to mitigate the degradation rate when calculating speed riding. As well as theft, but there is no enchant was not taken over in the gene synthesis document does not exist corresponding learning-has not changed. Skill is increased by the PC and remote physical damage caused by attacks in neighboring riding.)?
  • "Closeout" (I think this is evasion or greater evasion): (Hitting the target to be preferred in critical judgment. In addition, the gravity state is disabled.)
  • Heavy, Medium, and Light Armor: (Experience the skills to enter a value in the only state to maintain the appropriate equipment. Also fell that becomes difficult to grow because of the skill closeout. Adapt to both the player and pet.)?

Special action changes:

• Some other skills can be learned when leveling up after reaching a certain skill level, similar to the Tactics and Draw/Fill charge special actions. They are detailed here.
• Several new special actions have been added for NPCs, detailed here.

Spell changes

• A few spells have changed, they are detailed here.

Changes to scrolls and potions

• Hermes' Blood is no longer based on potential and so always gives the same permanent speed boost no matter how many times it's drunk, +4 if uncursed and +8 if blessed. However, its cost in small medals at Miral and Garok's Workshop has doubled from 30 to 60.
• Potions of potential now give a much bigger boost to potential.
• The drop rate for potions of descent has been greatly reduced.
• Scrolls of faith can now be acquired by playing blackjack.
• There's a new potion, Speed Upper, which permanently increases speed by 1, regardless of whether or not its uncursed or blessed.

God changes

• Elona+ allows you to have more than 2 god pets. You can have one per 10 faith. This is only your own faith skill level, any bonuses from items does not count. Not sure about what the limit is (if there is one), but could be as low as 5. It's hard to check.
• Itzpalt of Element now takes rods as sacrifices rather than staves.
• Kumiromi of Harvest now grants the ability of regenerating stamina more quickly, and no longer grants the ability to generate seeds from rotten food. Instead, you get seeds by completing The Harvest Time quests.
• Mani of Machine changes his passive support abilty to Covering Fire, which increases your (base?) damage by 10%. Mani's gift has changed to Mani's gem stone of satellite shooter. If you import your Elona game and had Mani's old crystal, it changes into a energy crystal of matrix. Addionally, the android now has a different sprite depending on gender, which is shown here.
• Ehekatl of Luck will take the new Coconut crab for 60 favor, 300 when converting an altar.

Tools

• The Pot of Fusion is a new crafting station. Unlike the other crafting stations, it doesn't use materials gathered from sampling spots, but uses actual inventory items. Also, a single recipe might use more than one skill.
• The taming whip can be used on pets to prevent them from picking up gold and ores from the ground, and from eating food off of the ground.
• Existing crafting items have had their material requirements changed, and many items have been added. The list is fairly large.

Ether Disease

• Added the "ears of the beast" mutation. It adds 10 + (Level / 4) perception, and forbids use of head slots.

Status effects/hexes

• Wince: Probably inflcted by the Browbeat special action. Reduces inflicted damage to 1/4.
• Rage: Double damage given and taken. Used by NPCs with the cTemper bit, and the Rampage special action.
• Binding: Prohibits movement. Inflicted by the Bind special action.
• Brainwash: Turns your pets hostile when used on them, and has a chance to make you unequip an item when used on you. Inflicted by the Eye of brainwash special action.

Services offered by NPCs:

• Learning a new skill from a trainer is capped at 50 platinum coins, regardless of how many new skills you've already learned.
• The cost of getting info on an ally from the informer has been reduced from 10,000 gp to 1,000 gp.
• The healer, in addition to restoring attributes for 500 gp, will uncurse the equipment of you and your pets for 2,500 gp.
• Blacksmith vendors will offer to "harden" your weapons and armor for you, just like if you read a scroll of enchant weapon/armor. They can be enchanted up to +10. This is the only way to get to +10, since blessed scrolls of greater enchant still can only go to +6. The prices are:

1. 1,500 gold
2. 5,000 gold
3. 14,500 gold
4. 33,000 gold
5. 63,500 gold
6. 109,000 gold
7. 172,500 gold
8. 257,000 gold
9. 365,500 gold
10. 500,000 gold

• If you are a member of the Fighters' Guild, the cost of weapon enhancing is halved like the costs of other services. This is a massive amount of gold at higher enchants.

Gathering from sampling spots

• In low danger-level dungeons you can gather from a sampling spot without having the associated skill, but as the danger-level increases the associated skill starts becoming necessary. Further, the rune, camp leftovers and scrap wood sampling spots require the detection skill in the higher danger-level dungeons. The remains gathering spots use Gene engineering.

Character customization and sprite changes

• Character pcc sprites can now be set to "Full-size" in the options, making them a little bigger and getting rid of the scale-down distortion.
• You can also change some of your character's attributes in the middle of your game now.
  • Forbidden meat allows you to change your sex, with a couple of odd options. This is not very useful for players, but should work on pets if you want to evolve one as a certain gender type.
  • The Mutation spell will let you pick a new nickname, bringing up the character creation random generator.
  • Philosopher's stone masks and Business cards will change the names of your race and class respectively. This does not change the actual class or race, so it is purely cosmetic. You can't gain a different race or class feat.

Food and drink items

• New items are detailed here

Other changes

• Gold rewards for completing dungeons have been increased, to a maximum of 999,999 for clearing a level 400 or so dungeon.
