Statement on Trade Restrictions
Hello. We are the "Tree of Savior" development team. Many players have voiced negative opinions on the 1:1 trade restriction of our game system. We’d like to announce our stand on this system and explain why we cannot modify it immediately. Economy is an important part of an MMORPG. It’s difficult to maintain one, yet very easy to ruin. The main factor that ruins in-game economy of F2P games is gold (in this case, silver) selling. Unlike the P2P model, F2P games are much more vulnerable to exploit because gold sellers make near to zero investment on accumulating in-game currency. They can make essentially an infinite amount of silver in the game. Therefore, it’s important to know what can control in-game transactions effectively. We can track down and ban the gold sellers individually, but that’s a primitive method of defense and gold sellers are constantly developing newer ways to run their business. Causing players to make minimum investment, which is mediated by Tokens, is only the first step to enforcing the limitation on gold sellers. How are we to regulate and block gold sellers who purchase Tokens? In the end, RMT(Real Money Trading) is the goal of selling in-game currency. The second method we can use, then, is preventing one-way transfer of goods. Gold sellers transfer their goods using the following method: (1) Run multiple bot accounts (to accumulate silver) (2) Transfer the silver to a separate "seller’s account" (3) The silver on said seller's account then goes to the buyer There’s no need to regulate trades where the goods being traded from each side are similar in value. However, an uneven transaction is observed when trades are made between bots and seller’s accounts or between sellers and buyers. Gold sellers transfer silver using the market system. Through the market, transactions are made by listing cheap items at high prices. The sellers would purchase these items to “send over” their silver to the buyers. To stop this, we could put a set silver value on the items. By doing so, we'll be able to quickly notice the discrepancy when an item isn't sold at its rightful price. The problem is, it’s difficult to maintain a set price on every item in the game. To tackle this, we have also implemented mechanisms to limit one-way transactions through the market. With our current market system, once an item is sold enough times through the market, highest and lowest market values are automatically generated. Players cannot list items at prices that exceed this range. On top of it, there’s already a limit on how many items can be listed. In addition, trades are temporarily held for 48 hours upon completion. This gives our staff time to detect and cancel any suspicious transactions before buyers and sellers get their goods. In the future, we hope to reduce this time frame by developing a system that can automatically detect and block such suspicious trades. We are continuously working on this function. We do not believe these restrictions can completely shut out gold sellers. Rather, what we’re trying to do is utilize this system to make gold selling something that isn’t worthwhile to both gold sellers and buyers. Finally, after considering the arguments stating that making team storage a premium feature is irrelevant to preventing gold sellers, we’ve decided to lessen the restrictions on this part. We will be modifying this feature for the upcoming patch. We’re also developing an in-game report function for players to use, and we anticipate other inconveniences to naturally diminish once we successfully administer bots. We hope this defined our reasoning behind the trade restriction we’ve implemented. Thank you for your attention.

Intense Class Balancing, Here We Go
Greetings, Saviors! We have yet another batch of changes to discuss today, this time related to class balance. We’ve discussed class-specific balancing on many other occasions here at the blog, but the changes we’re introducing today are a little different. Unlike regular balance patches, this one is going to bring more substantial changes to each class, with some skills acting entirely different and new attributes added to the mix. Today we’re sharing some of the adjustments we have in store for a few Cleric classes (don't worry, we have plans for other classes and class trees too). As always, remember that the changes discussed here aren’t final or absolute. Some content may be added or readjusted before it makes it into the game, so keep that in mind. Paladin Changes We’re starting with Paladins, a class for which we have a few specific skill changes planned. Namely, we’re turning the C2 Conversion skill into a Turn Undead attribute and adding two brand new skills. Turn Undead: Conversion Conversion skill removed, added as Turn Undead attribute. Sanctuary New buff skill. Demolition New attack skill. Shield Guard C key activates shield to block attacks. First, we’re taking Turn Undead and Conversion, two skills largely ignored by most Paladins, and combining them into a single skill with increased effects. The cooldown for Turn Undead is being reduced from 70 to 50 seconds, while the AoE ratio goes up by 2. As for the skill’s area, we’re switching the current conical shape for a square one that covers 1.7 times more terrain, giving players a much more comfortable reach on nearby monsters. As mentioned above, the Conversion skill will become a Turn Undead attribute, replacing the current [Conversion: Might Enhance]. The new [Turn Undead: Conversion] attribute, then, means a certain chance per skill level of converting enemies hit by Turn Undead. With this, you can have up to 5 converted monsters at any time, which will act like summons and receive influence from your SPR stat and additional attack from your weapon’s magic attack. Of course, Paladins who already invested points in their Conversion skill will have those returned in the form of Paladin skill points. Now, let’s look at the new skills. First, we’re adding Sanctuary, a buff that can protect and empower allies, neatly reinforcing the role of the Paladin as a defense Cleric class. For as long as the Paladin holds their prayer, Sanctuary increases ally defense, an increase which then determines the strength of the additional Holy property attack the skill provides. So Sanctuary offers decent protection and attack boosts to nearby dealers who may be short on defense or HP. On the other hand, the skill can only be used with a shield equipped and it lasts for a maximum of 10 seconds (it isn’t canceled when the casting character is attacked). The other new skill we have ready for Paladins is Demolition, a wide-range attack technique used exclusively with two-handed blunt weapons. Demolition, with its AoE attack ratio of 12, strikes the ground 3 times to deal a total of 7 hits on any monsters nearby. We thought a skill like this was needed to complement the lack of wide AoE action in the physical attack Cleric family, while still differentiating itself from Monk skills of a similar concept. The new Circle 3 attribute, Shield Guard, gives Paladins the same ability Peltastas and Murmillos have of using their shield to block enemy attacks. Combined with other future Paladin attributes, it can also serve to protect allies, depending on your controls and setup. Priest Buffs and Pardoner Shops Pardoner shops have always been the subject of discussion. They’re a unique characteristic of Tree of Savior, with many Pardoners dedicating themselves to providing the highest performing buffs at the most affordable prices to everyone in-game. On the other hand, while celebrity Pardoner buffs get all the acclaim for their attractive effects, Priest buffs are relegated to the background, to the point where even Priest characters often buy their buffs from Pardoners instead of using their own. With these changes, we want to have shop buffs perform 30% below the effects of normal buffs, while boosting the numbers on real skill buffs. Pardoner shop buffs will, therefore, be more limited in terms of how much of a boost they can offer, while Priest skill buffs will perform similarly to the current shop ones. First, we’re doubling the defense-increasing effects of Aspersion (considering a standard of skill level 15, SPR 300). Then, we’re increasing by almost 4 times the effects of the Pardoner skill Increase Magic Defense (same standard), and we’re adding it to the list of skills allowed in the shop. From Blessing, we’re removing the limits on the maximum number of attacks and applying it with 30% less effect in Pardoner shops. Instead, you’ll be able to use this buff for a long time without worrying about the number of attacks you’ve used. Sacrament, often just used as a supplement to additional property damage buffs, is saying goodbye to the downward compatibility with Blessing and the meager Holy damage extra. Our plans now are to have it add a very significant amount of Holy property damage to regular attacks. To recap everything, this is how Pardoner shop and Priest buffs are going to change. Skill BEFORE (Skill Buff) AFTER (Skill Buff) BEFORE (Shop Buff) AFTER (Shop Buff) Aspersion Lv. 15 Physical defense +512 Physical defense +1060 Physical defense +512 Physical defense +742 Increase Magic Defense Lv. 15 Magic defense +560 Magic defense +2207 Magic defense +1544 Blessing Lv. 15 Add. damage +913 (limited attacks) Add. damage +913 (unlimited) Add. damage +913 (limited attacks) Add. damage +639 (unlimited) Sacrament Lv. 10 Holy attack +330 Holy property add. damage +370 Holy attack +1285 Holy attack +330 Holy property add. damage +370 Holy attack +899 As you can see, skill buffs are going to get a pretty significant increase after the changes. Defense shop buffs, even with 30% less effect, are still going strong. Blessing may become less effective in shops, but it offers unlimited attacks and, when used with Sacrament, a similar degree of additional damage and more than 1 hour of comfortable hunting. Other Skills The Priest’s Monstrance, due to its peculiar system (and the occasional bug…), can often be difficult to install, so we wanted to change the way this skill is used to a more intuitive one. The new Monstrance magic circle will be large regardless of level, and it will not disappear when it’s stepped on by an enemy. The Bokor’s Ogouveve is going to increase zombie damage based on skill level. Like Sacrament, the Chaplain’s Last Rites is having its additional Holy damage removed and will instead be adding damage to Holy property attacks, which increases when your HP gets below a certain level. To create a more stabilized dealing skill for Monks, Golden Bell Shield is becoming a stationary attack skill that provides both invincibility and resistance to knockback/knockdown, gaining you time until the Pain Barrier kicks in. This last part is because, along with the skill change, we’re replacing Golden Bell Shield’s Safety Zone attribute with a Pain Barrier one, which applies a Pain Barrier state for 5 seconds after the skill (your character will be able to move during that time). For the Pardoner’s Decatose, we’re reducing the amount of Silver consumed from 1,500 to 300. The 10% chance of reacquiring the Silver spent is being scrapped; instead, the 10% chance of instant enemy death can be increased up to 2 times (to 20%) according to your SPR stat. Not only that, the skill is getting an overheat of 2 and a new [Decatose: Enhance] attribute. To the Oracle’s Forecast we’re adding an evasion increase of 100 for you and your party members. We’re also reorganizing the attributes in the Kabbalist’s Merkabah. [Enhanced Durability] will become a basic function and [Magic Defense] will be integrated into [Divine Protection]. Gematria and Notarikon, two skills which take up a little too many points for the amount of function they offer, will be mastered at level 1. They are also having their cooldown reduced from 10 to 1 second in order to combine with other skills more conveniently. This is all we have for you today, but there are still many more class balancing plans left to talk about. Don’t be too discouraged if your class or preferred skill wasn’t discussed here; as we mentioned in the beginning of this post, none of the changes are final and we are always working on other classes and aspects of the game. We’ll make sure to keep you updated on our plans as usual. Thank you!
[UPDATE] Scheduled Maintenance for November 16-17
Greetings, Saviors!We would like to announce the details of our weekly maintenance for (November 16-17, 2020). Make sure to check below for the maintenance schedule and patch notes.Please note that other issues and bugs are also being worked on even if they are not mentioned below.
[UPDATE] Intense Balancing: Clerics, Archers and More!
Greetings, Saviors! It’s been a while, but today your dev team is back with another preview of some intense balancing changes we’re getting ready to introduce in a future content update. As always, remember that this may not be the final version of all the skills we talk about here, so make sure to check the patch notes when this update arrives. Healing First, let’s talk about healing. Currently, the amount of HP restored by healing skills is largely determined not by the caster’s level and stats or by the skill’s performance, but by the receiving character’s capacity for HP recovery. Receiver CON Caster SPR 1 100 200 300 1 8,816 8,915 9,015 9,115 100 13,856 13,955 14,055 14,155 200 19,176 19,275 19,375 19,475 300 24,496 24,595 24,695 24,795 <Amount of HP restored by a Lv. 360 Swordsman tree character via a Priest’s Lv. 10 Mass Heal.> As illustrated by this table, a large part of the performance of healing (90%, in fact) comes not from the skill level or the caster’s SPR, but from the receiver’s CON values. Even when the caster’s SPR is at 300, if the receiver has a low CON value, the healing skill is unable to recover even 10,000 HP. On the other hand, a receiving character with 300 CON in the same circumstances gets more than 24,000 of their HP restored. In reality, this setup where the recovery happens in proportion to your maximum HP makes it so that supporting classes see little advantage in investing in healing skills and building their characters around that function. After this update, the amount of HP restored will depend not on the receiver’s maximum HP, but on the caster’s healing abilities and skill level, like so: Heal value = [caster’s Healing] x [skill’s heal factor] +x [compensation values] In this formula, Healing is a new secondary stat like physical attack or magic defense, which values will be determined by the character’s SPR and INT stats on a ratio of approximately 2:1. The efficacy of healing skills, then, will be based on your Healing stat and the skills’ own heal factors. For example, if your Healing is 1,000 and the heal factor is 350%, the skill’s final heal value will be 3,500. Any buffs related to healing will also influence this heal value. In the future, we expect to introduce new unidentified items with Healing stats, Boss Cards that increase Healing, and accessories or consumable items that can boost the heal factor of skills. Recovery in proportion to the receiver’s maximum HP will become a feature of only some healing skills. Let’s move on to class-specific changes now. Cleric [C1 Attribute] One-handed Blunt Mastery: Stun The effects of this attribute change to an increase in Healing whenever the character is equipping a one-handed blunt weapon. Accordingly, the attribute is renamed as One-handed Blunt Mastery: Healing. [C1 Skill] Heal The skill’s healing factors are revised, and the effects of the magic circle are adjusted to apply only to party members (including instanced dungeon parties). New C1 attribute Heal: Open Sanctuary lets you extend the skill’s effects to other neutral characters, while Heal: Apply to Summons (also C1) can be switched ON to apply the effects of the skill to summons as well. When the attribute is switched OFF, of course, the healing tiles are not consumed by summons. In C3 we’re adding Heal: Linger, which applies a buff that continually restores the HP of any allies that step on the healing tiles. As for the basic Heal: Enhance, this attribute will increase not just the damage of Heal, but its healing ability as well. [C3 Skill] Guardian Saint The effects of this skill are changed to momentarily increase your Healing stat in proportion to skill level. After this update, current attributes Guardian Saint: Decreased Damage and Guardian Saint: Change Target will be deleted and converted back to points. Priest [C2 Skill] Mass Heal The area of Mass Heal is adjusted to fit around the caster, meaning allies standing behind the casting character can also receive the skill’s effects (no changes to the range). And, as what happens with Heal, the skill gains a heal factor that is determined by the character’s Healing stat. Krivis [C1 Skill] Aukuras Like the other healing skills, Aukuras also gets a heal factor. Kabbalist [C1 Skill] Merkabah Merkabah’s attack is adjusted to deal twice the damage to both Demon type and Large sized monsters. [C1 Skill] Decrease Level Skill deleted. [C1 Skill] Ein Sof Ein Sof’s maximum HP increase is changed from +20% to +10% +3,000. There is no change when the receiver’s HP is 30,000; otherwise, this is how it should work: Max. HP BEFORE AFTER 20,000 80,000 95,000 30,000 120,000 120,000 50,000 200,000 170,000 100,000 400,000 295,000 <Ein Sof Lv 15> The HP increase in this attribute may be cut in half, but with these changes, the SP restoring effects of Ein Sof: SP Recovery apply over 10 whole seconds. [C2 Skill >> C1 Skill] Double Chance Double Chance is moved to Circle 1. Also, the skill’s attack per hit changes from (skill level x 10%) to (skill level x 8%). NEW! [C2 Skill] Nachash New skill Nachash uses the power of Kabbalah to summon serpents that attack the enemy. Accompanying this skill is attribute Nachash: Enhance. NEW! [C3 Skill] Tree of Sepiroth Tree of Sepiroth is the new Kabbalist C3 skill. This skill reduces the damage taken from enemies within its range, and it continually restores HP in proportion to skill level and the receiver’s maximum HP. The effects apply only in the periphery of the tree. Along with this we’re adding the Tree of Sepiroth: Enhance attribute, which increases the ratio of HP restored. Druid [C1 Skill] Carnivory Attack factors increase, cooldown time is changed to 20 seconds, and range expands by 50% (same range as Chortasmata). [C1 Skill] Chortasmata Ground enemies that step on Chortasmata receive an additional Rash debuff, which applies Poison property damage every 0.5 seconds for 10 seconds. Allies on top of Chortasmata, on the other hand, get their HP restored every second with the new Floral Scent buff. NEW! [C1 Skill] Seed Bomb Seed Bomb is a new skill that lets you plant an explosive seed on your party members (no, seriously). Once it’s planted on an ally, the seed will explode when the ally is hit or after the buff expires, dealing magic damage to nearby enemies. Since the explosion happens in the spot where your party members are located, you can coordinate to stack its effects. As you can guess, this skill also comes with an Enhance attribute. NEW! [C2 Skill] Thorn Another new Druid skill is Thorn, which generates a thorny vine that deals continuous damage. Ground enemies hit by the vine have their movement restricted, and the skill also includes an Enhance attribute. [C3 Skill] Henge Stone To this skill we’re adding an effect that increases the damage of magic skills cast by nearby Cleric classes by 10%. Duration is extended to 10 seconds, and cooldown time changed to 25 seconds. [C3 Skill] Lycanthropy Lycanthropy is set to undergo several changes. Here is a summary. - 3 seconds of immunity after transformation - Only wolf skills allowed after transformation - Wolf skill damage increased by more than 2 times - Wolf skill damage increased by 10% per Lycanthropy skill level - Wolf skill cooldown reduced by 20-50% - Critical rate increased by 40 per skill level - Movement speed +3 - Maximum HP +100% - Physical defense/magic defense +50% - 2% HP restored every 8 seconds - Dash added - Duration fixed at 100 seconds - Cooldown changed to 120 seconds [UPDATE] - Block penetration +400 - Increased factors and range for all wolf skills - Additional debuff effect for some wolf skills - Movement speed increased from +3 to +10 - Duration reduced from 100 seconds to 30 seconds Learning the new Lycanthropy: Human Form lets you turn into a half-human creature instead of the original wolf whenever you use Lycanthropy. There are a few differences between the half-human and wolf varieties of this skill, so here’s what you can expect from Human Form: - No wolf skills allowed (only your basic skills) - Basic attack changed to Scratch, which induces 5% Bleeding - Dash allowed - 2% HP restored every 8 seconds - Magic attack skill damage increased 4% per skill level - Physical attack skill damage increased 6% per skill level - Critical rate increased by 40 per skill level - Duration of 60 seconds Ranger [C1 Skill] Steady Aim Duration changes to 300 seconds, and Missile damage increase is adjusted from +5% per skill level to skill level%. Two new attributes are added to Steady Aim. First, Steady Aim: Two-handed Bow Specialization (C2) increases the skill’s Missile damage bonus by 50%. This means that, if Steady Aim alone increases Missile damage by 15% at Lv 15, with the specialization attribute that number jumps to 22.5%. The new C3 attribute, Steady Aim: Pro Ranger, increases the damage of all Ranger skills by 50%. [C1 Skill] Critical Shot This skill’s additional critical chance is increased from 62% to a fixed 100%, with a stacking buff generated every time Critical Shot is accurate. This buff increases critical damage by 10% per stack, and it can accumulate up to 5 stacks. [C1 Skill] High Anchoring The 1-second casting is removed, with the skill also expanding in width by 50%. Learning the new High Anchoring: Continuous Fire C3 attribute reduces the cooldown of Spiral Arrow, Bounce Shot and Time Bomb Arrow in proportion to the number of targets hit with High Anchoring. [C2 Skill] Time Bomb Arrow Two new attributes are added to Time Bomb Arrow: C2 Remove Knockdown and C3 Extend Fuse. Time Bomb Arrow: Extend Fuse increases the duration of the bomb to 4 seconds, but it also boosts damage by 200%. [C3 Skill] Bounce Shot Overheat increases to 3. [C3 Skill] Spiral Arrow Cooldown time decreases from 36 to 15 seconds, while overheat changes from 2 to 1. After the update, Spiral Arrow will ignore enemy defense by 20% and apply the Sure Victory debuff to any targets hit by it, which increases the skill’s consecutive hits. Fletcher Common The power of all skills except Magic Arrow increases by 20-50%. [C1 Skill] Bodkin Point Cooldown is changed to 20 seconds and overheat to 2. Not only that, Bodkin Point gains the ability to remove Subzero Shield (Cryomancer), Genbu Armor (Onmyoji) and Shield Charger shields. Finally, the duration of this skill’s physical defense reduction effect increases from 6 to 15 seconds. [C1 Skill] Barbed Arrow The number of hits applied according to defense type change to the following: Defense Type BEFORE AFTER Plate 1 hit 1 hit Leather 2 hits 3 hits Cloth 3 hits 5 hits [C2 Skill] Magic Arrow We’re changing the design of this skill’s magic circle, and allowing targets to receive part of the damage when they are hit slightly outside the Magic Arrow range. NEW! [C3 Attribute] Fletcher: Expanded Range This new attribute increases the range of Fletcher skills in proportion to attribute level. [UPDATE] Besides these changes, the Fletcher's Divine Machine Arrow is also set to have its overheat increased from 1 to 3, while cooldown time increases from 10 to 20 seconds. Mergen [C2 Skill] Down Fall Damage is reduced to 2/3 of its current value, while the attack cycle speeds up by 2 times and enemies hit by the skill become staggered. [C2 Skill] Jump Shot We’re revising the skill to grant your character invincibility while you jump backwards. At the same time, the attack range is adjusted to count from a point in front of the caster. Wugushi [C1 Skill] Needle Blow Skill and related attributes deleted. [C1 Skill] Bewitch Skill and related attributes deleted. [C1 Skill] Zhendu Zhendu will add a Poison property to your attacks. All attacks receive additional Poison property damage, while basic attacks gain a Poison property attack bonus (same structure as the Pyromancer’s Enchant Fire). These Poison property attack values are influenced by your STR stat. Cooldown is set at 110 seconds, duration at 300 seconds, and the skill can also be shared via the Linker’s Spiritual Chain. NEW! [C1 Skill] Latent Venom This new skill allows you to fire a poisonous arrow that deals continuous damage to the target for a period of time. Enemies hit by Latent Venom receive Poison damage every second for 100 seconds, with damage increasing a little more in each turn. [C2 Skill >> C1 Skill] Throw Gu Pot Skill changes from Circle 2 to Circle 1. [C1 Skill] Detoxify Maximum level changes from Lv 15 to Lv 1. This skill also gains a new C3 attribute, Detoxify: Level 3, which lets you cure poison up to level 3. NEW! [C2 Skill] Wide Miasma Wide Miasma is a new C2 skill that has your character break a vial of poison on the ground, spreading a cloud of toxic gases all around. Also, with the new C3 attribute Wide Miasma: Stealth, your character can momentarily enter stealth status within the skill’s range after casting it. [C3 Skill >> C2 Skill] Jincan Gu Skill changes from Circle 3 to Circle 2. NEW! [C3 Skill] Crescendo Bane Crescendo Bane is a new skill that activates the poison running through your enemies’ veins. Using Crescendo Bane cuts the duration of the target’s poisoned status in half, while doubling the speed of the damage cycle. This skill activates not just the caster’s poison, but all Poison debuffs the target may hold, and it also applies twice the additional Poison property damage (already activated Poison debuffs, however, cannot be reactivated). The range of this skill increases with skill level, and it reaches a maximum of 10 targets. With new attribute Crescendo Bane: Poison to Poison, the skill deals additional damage to Poison property monsters. Nak Muay NEW! [C1 Skill] Muay Thai Muay Thai is a buff that, when casted, reduces the cooldown time of all Nak Muay skills by 1 second each. This does not apply to the basic Nak Muay attack. Besides the new skill, when this update patch hits we will also be reducing the difficulty of Nak Muay class unlocking requirements. Skill Consumables Along with the Cleric/Archer skill renovations, we have plans to adjust the current setup of skill consumables for these classes. Here’s a summary of what changes you can expect.
