On October 1st, 2013 (7PM CST) There will be a new map, named Haven! All items, levels, currency, worlds, arenas, rankings and anything else not mentioned will be completely reset. The only things that will be transferred are: supporter ranks, special titles, store perks and a few cosmetic items. The new connecting IP for Herocraft will be hub.hc.to
This is a new era of Herocraft! You have the chance to start fresh, battle new foes, and become the great hero you've always dreamed about! There are some drastic changes coming to the server that you may want to know about ahead of time. Read on to learn more about Herocraft 5.0 and the changes that will affect you. If you want a full changelog, make sure to read the patch-notes.
Attributes
Players no longer gain damage, range, mana or health when they level. Instead, your character will gain attribute points. You may place these points by typing '/attributes' and distributing them via the GUI menu. With other words, you can now customize your way of playing more than ever! No more static stats for all players of a class, instead you are able to choose what to specialize in every level.
Equipment Weight
Flat armor restrictions will be removed in favor of equipment weight. Each piece of armor will weigh a certain amount, and depending on your Endurance attribute, you will be able to wear various types of armor at once. This means you have to prioritize after what sort of playstyle you have, if you focus on Endurance attributions you can be very tanky but might have to sacrifice some damage output to make up for that.
Currency
The gold standard has fallen off as the main source of currency for the realm of Herocraft. You will need to hunt, trade, vote, and do other tasks to obtain the money needed to purchase your next class, chest protection, region or township. This means no more grinding for hours underground looking after gold! With gold no longer as the main income source, players can now adventure more while still gaining profit.
Premium Monthly Subscription
No Pay2win: We're now offering a monthly subscription via paypal. These ethical perks will allow you to stand out from others and have unique subscriber only titles/pets without unbalancing gameplay for non-subscribers. Subscribe here!
There are several new skills that you will be able to add to your arsenal, so make sure to read up on the wiki when it's updated and test them out! A few examples are; BoneSpear, Whirlwind, Doomwave, Darkbolt, Blizzard, DreadAura, FeignDeath and Intervene. More information to come.
Classes & Professions
Let's mix it up! We've heard your cries, various classes and professions have been changed to better reflect their roles. Over the following months, we will be adding additional classes to Herocraft, ex. "Berzerker, Shaman, Runesmith..."
3rd Anniversary of HC!
There will be a seperate blog post for this, but if you don't want to wait you can read more about it here
New Admin: Event Coordinator!
Kainzo would like to take this time to welcome back one of our long standing staff members, Xanipher, to the Staff of Herocraft. She has played a vital role to the server and will be assuming a new position for events and the like! In the past, events were run by normal admins. However with an admin position specifically made for events, we can expect more events than ever!
In closing, the team of Herocraft would like to thank everyone who has waited patiently for a fresh start. It takes a massive amount of time and teamwork to put together a server of this size so we are recruiting devs and builders for our Adventure Map push, you can find the recruitment post here. We hope you tell your friends and enjoy Herocraft for years to come!
