Aqua Makeover! (posted 8:00)

As of today the Aqua Grophs have had a facelift! All of the Aqua Groph images (fins, flippers, body, etc.) have been redrawn with smoother outlines and transparency, to produce better looking Grophs. The same has been done to the Guppy, which now has actual translucent fins like it was always supposed to have.

Please note, we are aware that there is an issue with the rainbow fin Aquas, where the rest of the Groph image will show degraded colours. We are working on this.

Redrawing of clothing items (posted 4:02)

The Redrawing of clothing items is continuing. Many old favorites, like the flowers and the desert clothing have now been updated, along with oldies like the t-shirts. A few have had to be redrawn entirely, like the Monk's Robes, while others have just been smoothed. You should also see some of the item icons changing.

As always there is the chance that some items will not redraw correctly, or will produce issues when viewed on a Groph. If you see anything like that let us know.

Away for the weekend (posted 3:54)

Victoria and I will be away till next Wednesday, so no payments will be processed at that point.

Dressing Room (posted 7:49)

Some exciting new changes have been made to the Groph Details page today, which should make it easier to dress and redress your Grophs. The list of currently worn clothing now has X links to let you quickly remove them. In addition a red tab with a + appears next to the Groph picture. Clicking it will open a dressing room window with all items currently in your inventory that this Groph can wear. Simply click an item to put it on the Groph.

Cloaks Redrawn (posted 3:21)

As of today almost all cloaks have been redrawn to have smooth outlines. A couple of contributed ones have not been done however.

Farmer's Coats and Nobles Cloaks (posted 7:26)

Now you too can pull off a farmer impression, or, if that doesn't appeal, dress to impress.

Combat Rankings (posted 3:36)

At long last the confusing combat rankings (Master, Grand Master etc.) have been replaced by a numerical scale similar to that used in contests. Indeed a Rank 2 battler should be roughly at Rank 2 contest level as well.

All Grophs now show their combat rank at the bottom of their page with the rest of the battle information. Battle Ready Grophs also display this in a shield at the top of their page. You can also see the rank on your Battle ready page (which you can now access easily from the combat ready option on your Groph listing).

The Combat Rank also forms the core of the new Opponent Finder. Click on one of your Grophs and you will see Grophs of a similar Rank to yours available to challenge. We hope this will make it vastly easier to find Grophs to battle with.

Stay tuned for more changes ...

Battling changes (posted 11:16)

Some small changes have been made to the battle system today

• Shields now have twice as much defence as before
• Armour now stops more damage than before (it stops it's value, plus a percentage of the damage)
• The Ice shield now heals for 8% of your damage plus the defence of your shield

Summer Cash store items (posted 10:23)

Summer is fully in swing, and so the Cash Store has restocked with some brand new items. These ones have a fishing theme, for spending a lazy day (or week) at one of Grophland's lovely fishing spots.

Black Falchion (posted 2:35)

The Black Falchion now inflicts plague on it's user less often. In addition the Plague inflicted on opponents does more damage, lasts longer and has a larger penalty to Strength and Agility.
