Experience the thrill of double loot from December 15th to 22nd. Every drop table roll yields two chances to acquire the rarer item, significantly boosting your odds of obtaining precious rewards.
- All Events & Double Experience
Celebrate the end of the year with a grand finale from December 22nd to January 3rd. All previous events will be reactivated, and you'll enjoy double experience rates throughout this period.
Christmas Holiday Event

Invention Expansion
(https://emps-world.net/img/updates/vanstrom-rings.22457.jpg)
Expand your Invention prowess with these exciting additions:
- Deconstruction of Unique Clue Scroll Rewards: Convert unique rewards from clue scrolls into Treasure energy, a valuable resource for creating powerful items.
- Clue Scroll Skippers: Use Treasure energy to craft clue scroll skippers, allowing you to skip certain steps in clue scroll challenges.
- Reward-Enhancing Ring: Craft a ring that enhances the rewards you receive from clue caskets.
- Flattened Level Requirements: Enjoy a more streamlined Invention experience with flattened level requirements for grouped deconstructable items. This means you can deconstruct all steel items once you reach level 12 Invention, rather than having to reach higher levels for specific subsets.
New items available for Deconstruction:- Staves
- God capes & staves
- Halberds & spears
- Promethium
- Clue scroll rewards
- Vanguard, Trickster and Templar
- Chalkos, Sidero, Atsali & Chrysos
- Necator
Invention Skill Interface Items are now grouped together more logically for easier navigation. The maximum level requirement for deconstruction is now displayed primarily, reducing confusion about the required level for specific items. Vanstrom rings can now be enhanced with powerful upgrades, further boosting your combat prowess.
Enhanced Floor Quality
Floor sampler code has been updated for the highest quality setting. Textures are now dynamically blended together, resulting in improved floor quality. Support for highest floor quality on older openGL versions has been dropped to ensure optimal performance.

Game fixes / changes:- Vyrewatch Amulets: Vyrewatch amulets have received a 1% and 2% lifesteal bonus, providing additional survivability in combat.
- Spell Autocasting: Superheat, low-level alchemy, high-level alchemy, and all enchant spells can now be applied multiple times with a single click. You can autocast these spells up to 28 times before having to click again. These spells can be used during combat but will reset once you start moving or attacking.
- Poisonable Promethium Weapons: Colored promethium spears and daggers can now be imbued with potent poisons, amplifying their potency against specific foes. This refinement also resolves an issue where poisoned Promethium Daggers would vanish upon death.
- Clue Scroll Drop Rate Boost: Clue scroll drop rates have been increased when fighting bosses or completing slayer tasks, rewarding your dedication.
- Slayer Helmet Level Requirements Removed: All level requirements for slayer helmets have been removed. Instead, the helmet's effectiveness scales with your stats up to level 80, providing a more flexible and rewarding experience.
- Item Deconstruction During Combat: Item deconstruction can now be performed during combat, allowing you to manage your inventory more efficiently.
- Collection Log Fixes: An issue where noted items did not count towards collection log completion has been resolved, ensuring accurate tracking of your achievements.
- Pathfinding Improvements: The server-sided walking queue processor has been rewritten to ensure your character accurately follows your commands and reaches the intended destination. This addresses issues caused by timing discrepancies and lag.
- Ammunition Effectiveness: Basiliskbane and Wallasalkibane ammunition now correctly apply their respective effects, ensuring your combat strategies are more effective against specific enemies.
- A Promethium pickaxe charge depletion issue during mining has been addressed.

P.S. These patch notes have been rewritten by Bard (https://bard.google.com/). Do you prefer professional writing by AI over my personal one? (I do xD)
Patch notes December 8th:
- Invention level requirements for the deconstruction of Demon items have been lowered from 95 to 90. Vanstrom necklaces and rings now require level 90 and 92 Invention to make.
- An issue was fixed where item weights wouldn't properly update when taking items from the bank.
- The coalbag has completely been reworked to properly function with ore smelting and the superheat spell.
- A bug was fixed where the maximum amount of steps that need to be completed for clue scrolls would never refresh.
- Green, blue, red and black dragonhide have received separate Invention level requirements for deconstruction.
- The experience drop system has been reworked. Bonus xp is now shown separately. Unique item drops and deconstructed items through invention now also appear in the experience drop list.
- Multiple issues have been fixed that affected clipping around doors. This also includes an issue where your character would suddenly stop walking.
- Vanstrom's bouncing spike projectile is once again visible after the initial bounce.
- Free PvE death respawns no longer happen in the air.
- An issue with invisible floors on lower quality settings has been fixed.
- A problem that takes away your GWD killcount and doesn't open the door was fixed.
Patch notes for December 16th:- Fixed a rare issue where a double drop would result in no drop.
- Gilded scarf & Gorilla mask are now tradeable.
- Daily Invention tasks containing Treasure energy will no longer be assigned.
- Added DKIM records to postfix mailserver to improve delivery and avoid mails from landing in spam folder.

While reading you got me thinking, his writing style changed. It is very smooth and professional. But, it makes for a very corporate read. I honestly prefer the self written notes.
Aside from that; looking forward to the December month! Great events planned, I honestly never expected double PvE drops! Does it stack with the double solo kill drops, and the dungeon clear boost?

It works on every direct monster drop and is calculated separately for every single drop. You'll get two droptable rolls and the game gives you the rarer item.
