Clans
Clans can now choose to receive automatic broadcasts when their members do any of the following:
- Obtain valuable loot (the value at which notifications go out can be determined by senior Clan members, and must be done at least once to start this alert)
- Obtain a Pet drop
- Complete quests
- Reach milestone skill levels
- Join or leave the Clan
All active recruiters are now notified when applications are received or withdrawn.
We are currently aware that the broadcasts are using the default chat message colour. We’re are working on a fix to have them look better than the default colour but felt broadcasts were more important to have than them looking their best.
Barbarian Assault has now been added as a social activity, so your Clan can run one as an event.
When resigning as a Clan Leader, you’ll now be told who else is eligible to become the new Leader in your stead. Make sure they’re big boots to fill!
We’ve also made a couple of rank and title amendments:
- The Clan rank ‘Peon’ has been renamed to ‘Pawn’.
- The new rank ‘Helper’ has been added, using a smiley face icon. This is so you can use smiley face icons in the Clans channels like you could in the legacy Chat Channels.
- The ‘Ruby’ rank icon is now a darker shade of red. Touch of class, that!
- The Metal Bars have been recoloured to match their in-game counterparts.
While you’re here, look out for these features in the near future:
- The ability to opt-out from your Clan’s channel without leaving the Clan (for privacy).
- The option to left-click Attack members of your Clan for a friendly battle!
- New ways to sort the Clan lists by various criteria, beyond just alphabetically.
These features are currently in development with help from the Engine team, but they aren’t quite ready for launch this week. We’ll release these as soon as we can!
