    Patch 522.3 - The Majestic Kraken hits the Shores!

    Posted: 10 Feb 2021 07:24 PM PST


    2/10/21 8PM - We are aware of some server issues with the latest update and are actively working on a fix. We appreciate your patience as we troubleshoot this incident.

    Ahoy Pathfinders!

    A new ship will be sailing into harbor with the new patch.The "Majestic Kraken" will be available from the ship salesman, it's a streamlined vessel that not only looks deadly but packs quite the punch if she gets her tentacles on you. That's because she's touting 24 cannons that provide 50% more damage. The Kraken will be similar to the previous Ramming Galley, with custom ship compartment load outs and repairable via the Patch Kit. So gather up your doubloons and release the… you know the rest.

    In other highlights of the patch, along with a few more bug fixes, we've also taken another pass at the glider suit so you can sail the skies, for a reasonable amount of time.

    You get a blueprint, you get a blueprint, you get a blueprint... You guessed it, blueprint drops will be doubling and counts required are going down. So, go get your craft on.

    Lastly, accordion music will wake creatures up faster after being tranquilized. Lederhosen and polka dancing are not required, but it couldn't hurt.

    Community Surveys

    Last patch, we asked our fellow pathfinders to take part in a community survey that would help the Atlas team gain better insight on the wants and needs of our community. Needless to say, we were overwhelmed by your participation and feedback and will be taking a lot of it into consideration. We would like to genuinely thank all who participated. To continue this series of engagement, we will have another community survey in the near future, this one will address recent concerns around ship construction and customization. We look forward to hearing more of your input and appreciate your support.

    Released Patch Notes

    • Max Level: 60
    • Sail Points: 6.0

    Accordion
    • Playing the Accordion in Free Play Mode quickly reduces the torpidity of nearby wild creatures, allowing them to wake up much faster after being tranquilized

    Armored Docks
    • Quality Blueprints for Small and Large Armored Docks have been added to loot drops
      • These have two stats: Durability (Total Health) and Effectiveness (Damage Resistance)
    • Decreased stack size from 100 to 1
    Blueprints
    • Increased the drop rate of Blueprints about double across all sources
    • Blueprints for Sails, Cannons, Planks, Decks, and Gunports now have much lower craft counts
    • Updated how quality is derived on Cannons
      • Quality is determined primarily based on Damage Percent
      • Durability contributes to quality at a much lower ratio
      • Stat values rolled are unchanged (same values should be generated, but quality of BP may be different)
    Glider Suit
    • Added a Stamina Drain Debuff

      • Iron is the most common metal now, and may be found in rocks
      • Other metals are no longer found in stone but may still be mined from metal nodes
      • Geodes may now drop from rock in all areas. Using a Geode will destroy it and may give some limestone, rock salt, and/or a small amount of different gems and crystals. Geodes may only be gathered by hand or with Tames, not with the Quarry or Farmhouse
    • Bug Fix: An icon for the Geode has been added

    • Bug Fix: Ship components can be demolished after crossing grids
    • Bug Fix: Resolved issue where all of the Ramming Galley's components were sometimes marked as Demolished
    • Bug Fix: Ship wake effects are now positioned correctly for the Ramming Galley
    Tames and Creatures
    • Added Enable/Disable Breeding option to tame command wheel
      • Breeding must be enabled to allow creatures to mate
      • Wandering is no longer required for mating
      • Following must still be disabled for mating

    • Increased the Warehouse inventory cap to 120 stacks
    • Trades of the same resources may no longer occur (e.g. iron for iron)

    • Sea Fort walls no longer give resources when demolished
    • Updated the drop tables of a few sea creatures to give more stuff

    Known Issues
    • Cannon wheels clip through the floor on the Majestic Kraken's lowermost deck
    • Painting has not been implemented for the Ramming Galley and Majestic Kraken and attempting to do so will result in some cosmetic errors.

    Final Note

    Again, we would like to emphasize that ATLAS is still in Early Access, meaning many things can and will likely continue to drastically change - even in the middle of development. Anything discussed is only up to date as of the moment it is posted. Features and changes that ultimately make it to the next patch, as well as timing, may be different from what was previously discussed.

    As always, we appreciate the suggestions and feedback from the community. Please keep them coming! Thank you for all of your support! :)

    Happy Sailing,
    - ATLAS Crew
