Greetings Minecraft Heroes!
RELEASE AT 7PM CST FRIDAY 07/13/18

We at Herocraft would like to welcome you back to second major release!

Races
  • Four playable races with passive abilities.
  • Over time the passive abilities will be tweaked more for the race.
  • Attributes will be granted to races and changable as you level in a future patch.
  • Races cannot be easily changed. Resetting your player will not reset your race.
  • To change a race, you must find a Race Book to change or purchase one from the Platinum /Shop
    • Human - phsycal dmg increase + health pool increase
    • Highelf - range dmg increase + mana pool increase
    • Drow - mana regen increase + range damage increase
    • Orc - physicval dmg increase + stamina increase
New Atlas Map Expansion by 500R
  • To make more room for the new players, we're expanding the map!
  • The map will now be 5800R
Advanced Crafting Items
  • Advanced crafting systems have been created.
  • You can see the recipe list by shift + rightclicking a workbench
  • You can upgrade COMMON crafted items to UNCOMMON and beyond with an Apex of Time + the item

Class Coffers
  • Opening coffers from bosses now open the coffer with a much higher chance to be usable for by your current class.
Class Trainers
  • Fixed several trainers selling the wrong books.
Skill Books
  • Level 1 players start around 100hp and a Level 50 player will have upwards of 4K health.
  • Damages and healing scale as well.
Mobs
  • Several mobs have been tweaked for their AI and damage.
  • Bosses now snare and slow players to avoid being easily kited and outwitted.
PVP Future plans
  • Control Packs
    • These packs must be carried to their destination to collect coin, platinum and other rewards.
    • A player must carry a control pack all the way to the specified location without any teleports and no speed boosts.
    • When a player is carrying a control pack, they are highlighted and are slowed for the entire duration.
    • When a player starts a control pack mission, the server is alerted with the start and end locations.
    • If a player logs out with a control pack, the control pack will be dropped on the ground.
    • Only the player who turns in the control pack gets the exp, coins, and other rewards.
    • Players carrying a control pack may be attacked anywhere, even respawn points.
  • Race Wars
    • Races are mostly locked into the player, making a true racial system that will lead players in a rich pvp environment.
    • You will not be able to group, township, trade or speak with another players if they are an opposing race.
    • An opposing race will be PVP everywhere except for the initial spawn.

In case you missed it:
  • All classes have 20+ skills
  • A skill hotbar icon system exists for no-client required gameplay
  • Skills must be prepared with /hero skill prepare X
  • Each T1 class has 7 skill slots available. T2 classes when released will have additional slots.
  • Skills require memorization points to prepare and cannot be prepared in combat.

The tiered dungeon quests have been re-activated. Search for NPCs at spawn to get your quests!
Quick Shops will be enabled next restart to create player driven shops.
We have some balance changes coming in next restart. A bigger gap between caster / tank / support / melee in health and mana pools.

Uncommon+ Cloth/Light/Medium armor now drops from all bosses.
Please welcome TwistedMike as the newest mod for Herocraft!
All Common Weapons can now be purchased via /shop > items > class
Introducing COFFERS --- all bosses have a 100% chance to drop a coffer with loot inside! No more boss lag due to heavy set drop tables!

Guards standing vigilant around New Atlas have now been made a bit more sociable.
Basic bows can now be used by Bards.
Fixed an issue where Heroic bows werent correctly creating.
Atlas Town Guards will now help protect the forest from the undying hordes of doom

Randomized the equipment found in Coffers a little more.
The Skill books dropped from higher end dungeons have been adjusted so non-usable books no longer drop.
Restricted Discord to Minecraft chat to donors and staff.
You are now able to show your item to chat without holding it directly. To do so simply use %item#% where # is the inventory slot that it is currnetly residing.

Introduced the extended tutorial as an optional longer tutorial

Currently, races only provide passive bonuses, and it would probably be best to not make anything from races class-specific. Also, races changing xp gain is probably a bad idea.
(btw this is probably not the best place to post ideas for new races; try creating a new post)
