Patch Updates

A Patch is a minor software update that usually involves bug fixes and small changes to the software, but does not bring new features or major changes which are usually introduced with Major Updates. 
In tibia, there are generally speaking 2 types of patches: Client and Server patches. Even though these are usually released alongside each other, this is not always the case. For example, the adjustment of creatures' strength or loot do not require a Client Patch, whereas an adjustment on the client interface usually won't require a Server patch as well. 
Over the past few years, CipSoft has created a custom of releasing patches on Tuesday, during Server Save, which are usually announced as Bugfixes and Content Changes. Of course, emergency bug fixes can be released at any other time or day in order to avoid major problems in the game or reduce their consequences (e.g. a Server Reset).
Since detailed information about server patches is not released by CipSoft, those cannot always be tracked. Announced changes and client patches, however, are registered on corresponding update pages.
