Helianthus: Solstice

The upcoming Season will be a good reset. A refined systems, better performance and allot of fixes. See some of the changes below:

1. Hosting and Performance Upgrade

The server is getting a huge hardware boost:

• CPU: 6 vCores @ 5.7 GHz
• RAM: 22 GB DDR5
• Storage: 350 GB NVMe SSD
• Ports: 10 allocated

TLDR: Much better performance and a lot of room for heavier Mods and Events.

2. Lore Updates

Last cycle was disappointing.

Helianthus found the world stale and weak, so he reshaped it entirely:

• This world holds more Dungeons.
• More Creatures.
• And of course bloodthirsty Demigods. (Minibosses)

He also created three lesser gods:

• Scythia: Goddess of Punishment
• Leonidas: God of Conflict
• Bremen: God of Expiration

You can now perform deeds for these gods in exchange for divine gifts. We wanted to add little sidequests and tasks to do besides your main house. By doing these quests you might be awarded gifts from the gods.

3. Divine Events

Each lesser god will host one major event this season (3 total).

Houses compete.

Winners gain a divine favor.

Rewards can be a powerful gift or a divine deed.

Not cosmetic. They will affect the power of Houses!

4. World Generation Overhaul

We're switching terrain systems:

Removed: Biomes O' Plenty

Added:

• Terralith
• Regions Unexplored
• Geolosys
• And others...

Expect a more exploration heavy and dangerous world!

5. Magic System Changes (House of Theurgy)

Theurgy magic is changing:

Removed: Ars Nouveau

Added: Iron's Spells & Spellbooks

More direct, combat oriented magic. More raw power and branching into different magic classes. You will get to express more individuality as a mage not just a Theurgy member.

6. Added a Progression Book

Each Player will receive a book on joining, which will outline:

• How the server works, what trading should look like, how monopolies should work etc...
• Each House will have an extensive guide on how to play as their House.
• Each House will also have simplistic guides on their mods, how to utilize and become powerful with them. .

Final Notes

This season is designed to be:

• Less lag prone.
• More consequential. Get those Lesser God rewards!
• More fun to explore. Plenty of new biomes, dungeons and creatures!
• Hopefully on a bigger scale. More mods than last time!

More detailed breakdowns (Events, Announcements, Lore) will follow.
