- To start the event, locate the event NPC known as the Dragon Hunter in Lilyut Hills, Tigerspine Mountains, Growlgate Island and Mirage Island.
- Only one reward item can be obtained each weekend.
*** NOTE: This will not be enabled on PTS until we can get a build that supports an earlier start date than our intended live date.


GENERAL
* The amount of Appraisal Certificates required to initiate a land sale has changed based on the size of the property being sold:
- 8x8 Workstations require 1 Certificate
- 16x16 Cottages, Farms and Aquafarms require 1 Certificate
- 24x24 Medium Houses or Gazebo Farms require 2 Certificates
- 28x28 Large Houses require 3 Certificates
- 44x44 Mansions require 4 Certificates
* Cyanfin’s “Sonar” skill has been re-added. All existing versions of the Dolphin Mount will receive this skill retroactively.
* Hanure the Hunter, a world boss in Hasla, has been increased to level 55.
- The level bump has increased its max health, mana and strength of certain skills like any good level bump should.
* The quest to obtain the Crimson Lightning Mount has been added to Hasaru, an NPC located in Hasla, at the Abandoned Drill Camp. 
- The requirements to obtain this quest include level 30 and ownership of the Earthen Roar mount.
- Pirates cannot currently take this quest (or any Hasla Weapon Quest for that matter) and this is under review.
- Crimson Lightning’s Stealth ability has received a duration reduction to ensure it doesn’t last as long as the ability’s cooldown.
* The Red Dragon world boss now drops a Gilt Red Dragon Statue 100% of the time. This is in addition to its current drop list, which includes pretty much every player to come in range.


BUGS AND FIXES
* Fixed a display issue when loading mail at a mailbox.
* Fix an issue that prevented Captain’s Intuition from expiring.
* The Rudolph Hauler is now summoned with the Owner’s Mark buff active.
