Feral's next major update has been released. The official changelog and some other notable changes are listed here.
Official Changelog
- Season Pass Update! All Challenges that require you to earn points in Dizzywing Dispatch or What the Hex are now cumulative. This means you can earn these points over multiple play sessions rather than all at once. Our Dizzywing birds will be grateful for the rest!
- Rewards displayed in Season Pass now show each item’s rarity. Cool!
- You can now purchase Tiers with Star Fragments! Note that the price of a Tier includes each Tier before that. For example, if you already have Tier 5 unlocked and wanted to buy Tier 20, you would also be purchasing Tiers 6-19 as well. At this time, only Premium Pass holders can purchase Tiers.
- Notifications now show a distinction between Premium Pass Tiers and regular Season Pass Tiers being unlocked.
- Privacy Settings! Been having trouble with a player who won't stop getting all up in your business? Privacy settings are now available to better regulate who can teleport to your location, trade with you, and visit your sanctuary.
- Sanctuary Update - a Sanctuary’s garden area now reflects the region that Sanctuary is from!
- A new set of Emojis!
- New Avatar Body Mods in the Astral Shop! Right now only Dragon Body Mods are available, so you will only see those options if you already have the Dragon Avatar.
- Single hold harvesting - You can now simply hold the E key or left click to harvest without having to break between harvested items.
- New Hot Springs in City Fera are open to the public! We could all use a little more relaxation.
- Lots of new clothing, dye, and furniture!
Other
- Release of the Chateau Sanctuary
- Mugmyre Marsh and Lakeroot Valley now have their own Daily Tasks, with both old and new prizes.
