Entropia Universe 11.4.0 Release Notes
New Features and Major Updates
New Version of Tier Upgrade System
Today we release a new version of the Tier upgrade system. It is made to improve the overall balance. The focus has been on the balance between limited and unlimited items.
* Removed the requirement of a secondary item when tiering an unlimted item.
* Modified the TT costs for recipes to reflect the changes and keep the balance of the items.
* A tiering attempt will always succeed when a tiering attempt is possible and when you have the ingredients.
* Implemented that, besides the major tier step, each tiering attempt can result in an additional minor tier increase. As a maximum 0.4 levels can be raised in one attempt, for example, from 0.9 to 1.3. The increase rate is related to your skill; higher skill means higher chances of additional tiering levels.
* Introduced a feature that enables you to salvage some of the ingredients. The salvage rate is related to your skill; higher skill means higher chances of salvaging more ingredients.
* Changed the value per amount of the items pile of “gemstones” to be able to use them more dynamically in recipes.
Note: If you had any piles of "gemstones" in your Inventory before this release, the total value of the piles is still the same.
Due to these updates, the amount of piles needed for non-tiering blueprints is also changed, but the total PED value is still the same.
