New Features
*Guild Castle Sieges
 
Changes to instances
*Demon Stronghold
**The access conditions have been modified. Instead of only having to kill the New Messenger in the Zurhidon Stronghold, players have to steal Sharleedah's Secret Document and acquire the map to the Demon Stronghold. Right click to read the document and you are allowed to enter to the demon stronghold. A secondary option is to solve the quest Surprise Zurhidon to get the qualification to enter. 
**If there is a Demon Hand to bind the player left when the scene changes, the Demon Hand will now disappear automatically. 
**The encounter with Sirloth has been tweaked slightly: After the start of the fight against Sirloth, the game checks if all players are in the middle of the circle in Sirloth's room. If the team members are not in the within this area, all players will receive the message that "You are affected by Sirloth's barrier power!" and are transported back to the entrance of the instance.

**Cross of Thorns Attack: "Requires 1 point of Nature's Power. Launches a rapid double attack on the target. Inflicts twice (x) main hand weapon DPS plus (x) times wisdom damage on the target. A successful hit also has a chance of restoring 1 point of Nature's Power to you. 
*The Guild Housekeeper’s has been informed what a Library and a Forge are really for. The text description now gives the correct explanation. 
*Fixed item descriptions: Low-Class Plant Growing Agent, Medium-Class Plant Growing Agent,High-Class Plant Growing Agent. When using these, the growth speed did not fit the description. That was corrected. 
*In certain cases in PvP a tooltip was showing some information on dropped "moneybags". This has been removed. 
KNOWN ISSUES
With today's patch a few class skills like the Knight's "Mana Return" or some Elvish Elite Skills may not work as intended.
They are working on a fix that they will apply as quickly as they can. Applying the patch may require a short downtime which they will announce as soon as they have the clearance.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
