Summary

  • Throne and Liberty‘s 1.12.0 update brings combat improvements, UI adjustments, and quality-of-life enhancements.
  • NCSoft has made changes to weapons, inventory adjustments, improved team management in War Games, and more.
  • The Startree Solstice Pass Point Shop will remain open until January 16, allowing players to use their unspent Shop Points.

For the year 2025, NCSoft initiates the first update for Throne and Liberty, encompassing a host of user-friendly improvements and numerous bug resolutions. In addition, the creators of Throne and Liberty have shared that the Startree Solstice Pass Point Shop will persist until January 16, granting players additional time to utilize any remaining Shop Points.

Throne and Liberty, an open-world MMORPG, gained popularity with over 54,000 simultaneous players at its peak before official launch. Despite some initial technical hiccups, players have appreciated the game’s adaptable character advancement system and other captivating elements. The developers have released updates to iron out these issues and introduce fresh content via special events like Halloween and Christmas. As we step into 2025, NCSoft is gearing up to address player suggestions.

In update 1.12.0 of Throne and Liberty, several enhancements have been made in combat:

1. The presentation of beneficial effects for party members has been enhanced on screen for clearer viewing.
2. How combat presets are displayed has been streamlined, making it simpler for players to customize their settings.
3. Combat changes also include fixing issues with incoming damage in certain Throne and Liberty dungeons or Dimensional Trials.
4. Lastly, the feature allowing players to auto-target party members by placing the cursor over them has been removed.

In the Saurodoma Island dungeon of Throne and Liberty, players should be aware that any unused token selection boxes will expire after 24 hours. Also, attempting to drink Training Dew when your weapon is already at maximum mastery level will prompt a notification that the experience gain won’t affect capped weapon types. Improvements have been made to various maps for clearer regional details display in UI. Various interface adjustments have been implemented, such as inventory management, enhanced team control during War Games, added options for certain interfaces, improved chat functionality, and more.

Just as we saw in the last “Throne and Liberty” patch, this new update tackles various other glitches. To give you an idea, it enhances console search operations, resolves complications related to non-target skills, and mends Battle Pass issues.

The developer has informed gamers that they are extending the duration of the Startree Solstice Pass Point Shop until January 16, because of a problem that didn’t allow players to fully utilize it. This means players can still use any leftover Shop Points during this extended period. With these adjustments and updates, Throne and Liberty is gearing up for a smoother beginning in 2025.

Throne and Liberty Update 1.12.0 Patch Notes

General

  • Guild Summon gates now properly last for the expected 3 minute duration.
  • Combat: Made improvements to how beneficial effects of party members are displayed when you select “only show my animations” from the settings so that healing effects like Fountain of Life will still appear.
