The first patch for the [url=https://albiononline.com/changelog/into-the-fray-update][b]Into the Fray update[/b][/url] is now live! This patch brings changes and improvements to the Arena, Crystal Arena, Portal Town travel, spells and UIs, and more. Here’s a summary of some of the changes:
[h3]Arena and Crystal Arena[/h3]
This patch brings some improvements to the [b]Arena[/b] and the brand-new [b]Crystal Arena[/b]. Firstly, players are fully healed at the end of a match and have all cooldowns reset, so that you enter the next fight at full health. Players’ max load now receives a significant increase while in an Arena match. Waiting times in the queue have been significantly reduced, particularly for premade 5-player teams, to get you into the action even quicker. And the highest Crystal Arena Rank Points that a player has reached in a season is now displayed in the Character Stats UI.
