Mortal Online 2 Opens Era of Refinement Patch 1 PTR Today

Mortal Online 2 players can try the Era of Refinement Patch 1 on the public test realm starting today. The PTR is available through Steam by opening the game’s Properties menu, going to Betas, and selecting Mortal Online Public Test Realm.

Star Vault is asking players to focus feedback on combat changes, including the bandage rework, parrying, minimum charge attacks, Adrenaline gains from damage, and several clade gift adjustments. A new primary skill, Mental Fortitude, is also available from the PTR Vendor and reduces incoming magic damage.

  • Bandages no longer have a hidden cooldown. Healing has been rebalanced, and the interrupt penalty is now 10% per hit instead of 35%.
  • Gathering nodes no longer have diminishing returns.
  • Endurance is now a child skill of Athletics.
  • Mounted archery is capped at 80%, and Adrenaline gained from taking damage has been cut in half.
  • Blocking now drains stamina continuously, while click attacks charge to about 50% before release.
  • Several clade gifts have changed, including Human, Thursar, and Oghmir options.
  • New territory structures are damageable for 5 hours instead of 12, and outpost siege timing has been shortened.
  • A crafting trash checkbox, Halloween graveyard spawners, and a batch of AI, UI, and bug fixes are also included.

The patch also adjusts weapon charge and release timing, which should make melee testing one of the bigger points of focus during the PTR. Territory warfare is getting a pass too, with outpost sieges now starting after 45 minutes and siege stages set to 15, 20, and 25 minutes.

Star Vault has also scheduled a PTR keep-siege event for October 17 at 9:00 PM CEST, giving players a set time to stress-test the new siege rules and combat changes together.
