New UI and Game Changes

The weather effects have returned to Asheron’s Call! and players will be able to toggle these on and off just as before.
Luminance can now be shared in fellowships! It's controlled under the same UI option as Xp, but the share range is drastically shorter.
We have updated several quest weapons and how they are made. In order to get these new versions, players will need to run the quests for these specific weapons again. The following weapons have been updated:
New Kill Task quests have been added in Tou-Tou.
The pickup timer for Radiant Mana Infusion's was lowered to 2 weeks.
Bhravarn ibn Salizim should now give xp to Heavy Weapons skill for Princely/Royal Runed Bastones.
The Royal Runed Bastone’s maximum damage was adjusted to fit the Heavy Weapons scale.
The Core Plating Integrator & Core Plating Deintegrator's now both work again on Ancient Armored Vestments & other odd shirts.
The wands from many of the undead creatures have been removed to fix a issue that would cause some of them to go into a passive combat state.
The Focusing Stone & Darker Heart Orb are now retainable/de-retainable by leather & sandstone.
