The latest round of legendary upgrades has been released.

The schedule is still to cycle them on the 1st of each month (even though they were a bit late this time).

The previous round of upgrade recipes will be removed in approximately 24 hours.

We've got a few bug fixes and adjustments for you today as well as a new scene for the rotation:

• Fixed medic support triggering when typing in the chat boxes.
  
• Barricade previews can now be seen by everyone and not just you.
  
• Fixed medic support on cavalry mode.
  
• Support keys can now be rebound. Use the Group 5! key (6 by default) for medic support and Group 6! (7 by default) for engineer support.
  
• Added Fortress Outpost.
  

Support Overhaul:

We have worked hard on a new support system to make it more of a shared role rather than one that someone dedicates themselves to full-time. Neither support classes will spawn in actual support items. Instead, you will spawn with a support ability. Support abilities are still equipped on the website as they were before. (Explosive Barrels, Resurrection Tomes, and Deployable Shields are exceptions to this new system and still work as before.)

Engineer:

• Engineer equipment has been updated with a variety of new barricades and platforms.
  
• Pressing the B button opens a personal build menu displaying the support items you currently have.
  
• Upon joining a server, your support item is added to your build menu.
  
• Each server has a pool of build points starting at 6 and increasing by 6 at the start of each wave prep.
  
• Each tier of barricade costs a different number of build points (the cost of this is listed in the build menu).
  
• Placing a barricade reduces the number of build points available on the server.
  
• Destroying the construction prop before construction completes refunds the build points.
  

• Medics have a new box near their health indicator that displays their medic ability.
  
• Pressing the H key uses the medic ability.
  
• Each usage has a 2.5 second cool-down.
  
• After all usages are depleted, your ability will recharge after a 15 second cool-down.
  

After some delays due to changes to the way we send out updates, we've got a series of fixes ready...

• Fixed an error preventing the "extra health" bar from being displayed.
  
• The mini-map is on by default.
  
• Shrank the mini-map icons.
  
• New swords for Odin's Chosen and Princess Dortea.
  
• Thor can throw his hammer faster.
  
• A couple AI fixes.

  • Port Assault (barriers)
    
  • Praven (prop barrier)
