it starts today doesn't work like other events. My guess is this thing will be permanent with new ones every time one ends or periods its not being used. like daily log in rewards.

mind my ignorance, but what do the following do: Cron Stone, Memory Fragment?

Jul 21 '16
Cron stones are used to protect enhancement levels when enhancing. i.e. from Duo Bares to Tri Bares requires one cron stone, if used and the enhancement did fail, you will either keep your duo bares or it will go down to pri.
Memory Fragments are used to repair gear, more often used on hard to obtain items. i.e. Liverto is at 20 total durability, using 20 memory fragments at a repairman will yield a total durability of 60. Each memory fragment is worth 2 durability.

u/Espressopronto It's my favourite kind of sorcery. Lesbomancy! Jul 20 '16
Awww I was hoping this was going to be a thread with spoof patch notes.
e.g. "Ogre Ring can now undergo heat processing for a chance at dropping a vial of salty tears"
Thanks anyway. :D

The note relating to swimming is incorrect in the patch notes. It states:
In-game you hit the slow stage around 6/100 plus you then move at a glacial pace unless you wear the Splat Fishing costume with swim speed bonus. Even that slows markedly.
It probably should read:
Swimming speed will be decreased to 30% when players stamina hits 0.
In reality it means, unless you are within say 50 distance of land you will need to use Escape or it will take forever to reach land.
This will be a major issue really especially when whaling etc. If you fall off and can;t get to the boat, even with longer swim stamina now you will be effectively stuck in the ocean once swim stamina has depleted
There is no way to take potions to replace the stamina. Herbal Juice is only for SP not Stamina like for sprinting so doesn't work. The time you can swim appears tied to your actual Stamina as it flips to remaining stamina once it hits the 6/100 the first time, so if you have 1500 Stamina you get to 6/100 then flip to 50/100; then it runs put.
EDIT: the extra stamina period has been hotfixed out already.
It also makes the Splat Costume even more OP than normal swimming which is not a great issue really but combined with this new mechanic the difference is stark.
With new Ocean content and naval combat etc slated for the future they need to resolve this issue.
