Trade Chat:
(Updates)
Due to introduction of Trade Chat it is forbidden to post trade announcements in public chat. Trade Chat is broadcast to the whole world, meaning do not abuse it – one message from one player in 60 seconds.
Only 3x smilies or clan signs are allowed in your announcement.
Strictly forbiden are the messages not relevant to trade in Trade Chat.
Also, there is a known issue with trade chat tab being open by default - this will hopefully be resolved in timely manner.

Healing & Assassins
(Updates)
We have removed the obligatory limits for healing spells. No matter what level of Cure or Heal you have you will have the ability to cure targets for 80% of their HP, or your HP respectively.
The mana cost for these spells has been adjusted accordingly: you will be able to cure 12 hp spending 1 point of mana for Cure and its five times more for the Heal.
I reinstate, the effect is always 80% whether its the targets maximum HP for Cure spell, or 80% of your maximum HP for the Heal Spell.
If you have no mana at all or you lack mana to heal all the amount of HP the target lacks, you will heal any HP you can.
Done with HP and Cure we go onto
Backstab It is now twice as easy to put the open wounds effect onto the opponent if you stab them.
The Open Wounds effect deals twice as less effect in percents, but lasts twice as much.
As of now, the Attack Foci means as much damage as Backstab does, even if it is not a critical or regular hit.
Please do keep in mind that Attack Focus will bring chances of you succeeding with a melee attack to unimaginable values, and that will not go as well during you stabbing target in their back.
