Hello Artificer's! This week has been a busy one with lots of improvements and fixes. Let’s dive into the latest changes! [h3]Promotions[/h3] A lot of focus has been put into making the promotion system smoother and more rewarding. One major fix is that promoting Scholars to Mages will no longer reset their skills to 0. Additionally, promoting students in a skill from a previous promotion will now properly display the new max potential. Candidates with no skills will also display an empty skill screen correctly. Another significant update is that Mages and Students will no longer lose experience during promotion and can save experience for multiple promotions (except Student to Mage). This ensures that all the hard work put into training doesn’t go to waste. To make things easier, there's now a new icon over Mages/Students who are ready for promotion. No more missing who's due for a step up!
