We have been listening to all your feedback and watching how you are playing in the Arc – we've therefore gathered together a bunch of changes, some of which we are intending to make by close of play Friday, with the next set coming with the Monday Release

For the end of Friday we will:
•Ensure that a Medium island will guarantee one rare resource, a Large island will guarantee two rare resources.
•Add chimes to Slayer npcs and non-contract npcs on Uncharted Isles.
•Allow players to trap tortles if they have boosted their hunter level.
•Add examine text so you can see guide price on arc resources.
•Stop Soup and Gumbo burning.
•Make it so Low Bamboo may grow and Tortles might appear upon returning or logging back into an Uncharted Isle.
•Freshen up the drop tables for the Uncharted Isles.
•Fix the polishing perk so it will no longer instantly deplete a fishing spot.

For Monday we will:
•Lower the Commodity Sell upgrade from 12k to 8k – yes you will get a refund!
•Check the hunting trap time animation isn't taking too long.
•Make changes to buy all option with the Chandler so it is clearer.
•Improve the number of chimes Arc gumbo and Shark soup gives.
•Add tooltips for the Uncharted Isles interface confirming what level of resources will be guaranteed.
•Rebalance Rare salt and shiny shell costs to be more lucrative.
•Fix the blocking of certain hotspots on Uncharted Isles.
•Make contracts pocket-slot items.
•Change Tengu op to ‘Contract' instead of ‘Get Contract' so it makes more sense when handing in.
•Modify Low level fish icons so that they look different from each other in Inventory.

We also already made the following changes:
•Brawlers now work again.
•F2P will no longer use Bonus XP.
•You can now start earning progress towards your Hunter contract
•An erroneous message related to the Uncharted Isles has been fixed
•A typo with the Tarpon fish is now sorted.
•General stores will now allow you to sell items not in their stock! Including Smuggler, Summoning, etc.
•Spiritual Enlightenment - if you have three books already read them and you should be able to progress
•Ensure Wobbegongs wobbe-go-away when using porters.
•Island changes related to objects appearing out of bounds
•Fixing a bug to stop players earning Bundles of Bamboo using an exploitable method.

We will continue to listen to your feedback and hope you enjoy exploring the Arc!
