    the first part of the soul light system changes is now live! Although we included some (long needed) balancing changes, keep in mind that they are only the tip of the tip of the iceberg!

    Hi Community,

    Please find below the patch notes reflecting the content changes which went live with R#183 last night. Sorry for the delay.

    LAW ENFORCER
    • City Administration have re-enabled the Law Enforcer tax in order to raise funds to increase the security of the Inner City (cash gain reduction). Due to the extra computational strain on the Law Enforcer, Runners may experience a sensation of light headedness while engaging in mentally stimulating activities (XP reduction)

    • A malus has been activated reducing the amount of experience and money earned by players with a Law Enforcer.
      • A reduction in earned experience becomes active once a runner reaches a base rank of /30, beyond this level the reduction increases to a maximum of 25% at a base rank of /60 and above.
      • A reduction in earned cash becomes active once a Runner reaches a combat rank of 30/, beyond this level the reduction increases to 50% at a combat rank of 60 and above.
