The latest Paths to Glory Patch 4 – Version 26.040.1 – was released on September 18, 2024, focusing on combat balance adjustments and fixes.
Players are urged to download the new Albion Online launcher from https://albiononline.com/download as the older version will be discontinued on October 26, 2024.
The Albion Journal mission “Keep a city plot you own in an auction cycle” has been changed to “Bid 5 million Silver on a city plot you currently own.”
Combat balance changes include adjustments to various weapon categories such as Axes, Bows, Crossbows, Fire Staffs, Holy Staffs, Maces, Nature Staffs, Shapeshifter Staffs, Spears, Swords, Helmets, Armors, and Shoes.
Several spell fixes were implemented, including adding missing AoE escalation to certain spells, fixing stacking issues, and addressing visibility problems.
UI fixes were made to address display issues with the Embalmed Tiger skin and autocomplete functionality on iOS devices.
Additional fixes were made to address Steam achievements, graphical elements, animations, terrains, audio, UI, and localization.
A tooltip issue with the Sanctify spell tooltip on the Exalted Staff was noted, and a fix will be implemented in a future patch.
