Wipe changelog 6/10/2022
Dear Wastelanders,
Time for a new changelog! It was a quick wipe in the past week, we can now go back to our regular bi-weekly schedule to match Facepunch’s update schedule. We have some exciting changes for this wipe again!
Skill Tree Rewards
Skill Tree has been running for a while now, and we continuously strive to make it better every wipe! Today we are adding leveling rewards! That means you will receive RP and Scrap for leveling up your SkillTree levels.
How does it work?
You will receive RP and Scrap rewards every five levels. Check out the table below for the amount you get:
- 0-20 500 rp
- 25-40 625 rp
- 45-60 750 rp
- 65-80 875 rp
- 85-95 1000 rp
Scrap increases by 15 every five levels. You start with 25 scrap at level 5, and at level 10 you receive 40 scrap, and at level 15 you receive 55 scrap, etc…
Once you reach level 100, you get a 5k RP and scrap as a bonus reward.
Skill Tree XP tweaks
There is also an increase for the amount of XP you receive when doing any of the things below:
- Looting Bradley crate: was 50 increased to 250
- Killing Bradley: was 1000 increased to 1500
- Airfield Boss: was 250 increased to 500
- Airfield Parachute NPC’s: was 250 decreased to 100
- Launch Site Boss: was 250 increased to 500
- Launch Site Guard: was 250 increased to 500
- Power Plant Boss: was 250 increased to 500
Vanilla Loot Tryout
During the wipe in the past week, we had a vote in our Discord server. We’ve proposed to try running the server with vanilla loot rather than the custom loot tables we are running at the moment.
We’ve tried this in the past, but nowadays with Raidable Bases and the NPC Raiders plugins there is use for all items, even the pvp items you may get from vanilla loot. The majority voted yes to try this out (84 yes, vs 23 no).
So this wipe we will run vanilla loot, after this wipe we will do another evaluation to see if opinions have changed after two weeks of playtime.
Just a little reminder of the advantages that vanilla loot could bring us:
- One heavy plugin less > better performance
- New items added by FP will always be in the loot
- Loot will be always be balanced as FP intended it to be
Other changes
- Various changes to the Road Bradley.
- Fresh server install which hopefully fixes some strange issues.
- New Halloween-themed starter kit.
- Added suggested skins to /skinbox.
As always, we’re curious to hear your feedback on those changes. Have fun with them, and let us know on Discord how you’re experiencing them this wipe.
Have fun and see you all around!
