Throne and Liberty 1.4.0 patch notes: Everything new in the Halloween update

Throne and Liberty's 1.4.0 update will go live today, and NCSoft has released the patch notes in advance, documenting what is to come. Rather than a traditional version update, this one is all about the upcoming Halloween event. Naturally, players can expect to see a lot of their town hubs redecorated to fit the spooky aesthetic.

Other than the event-exclusive dungeon, this update still ships with some changes to the base game that will persist beyond the event, including changes to Field boss loot. Find out about all this from the full patch notes for Throne and Liberty 1.4.0, documented below.

Note that there will be a six-hour server maintenance period for patch deployment, and players can expect Throne and Liberty to go live again at 7:30 am ET (11:30 am UTC) on October 25, 2024.
