==[https://www.wurmonline.com/2018/04/26/patch-notes-26-apr-18/ 180426] Patch Notes 26/APR/18==
PvP Affinities and rank rework:
PvP Rank:
*Rank is now more evenly split between attackers. Rank gained/lost depends on the total average rank of all attackers versus the killed player.
*If there is more than double the number of attackers worth of rank to be split, half will be spread evenly and the other half will be spread based on the rank of each attacker (lower ranked attackers will gain more than a higher ranked attacker).
*If there is only enough rank to be split evenly, then no bonuses will be given based on attacker rank.
*If there isn’t enough to be split evenly, then it will be split based on attacker rank only.
*Killed player will lose 75% of the rank gained among attackers, instead of 100%.
:*(e.g. 20 rank split across 5 attackers: Each of the 5 will gain a base of 2 rank each. The other 10 rank will be split between attackers based on their relative rank – lowest rank attacker might gain 3 bonus (total 5), next 3 might gain 2 (total 4), and highest rank might only gain 1 (total 3). Killed player will only lose 15 rank instead of 20.
PvP Affinities:
*Affinity will now go to a random attacker instead of the “max” attacker.
*Changed the chance for the affinity to be lost without transfer: If the chosen attacker already has at least 2 more affinities in the chosen skill than the killed player (before the affinity is lost), they will only have a 50% chance to gain the affinity. If the do not gain the affinity, another random attacker will get the chance instead.If no permanent affinity is gained, a week long timed affinity will be given to a random attacker instead. Killed player will still lose the affinity.
*All other attackers will gain a timed affinity of between 1 and 2 days in the skill of the lost affinity.
*Champions will now lose an affinity on death even if it is their only affinity.
*If a killed player doesn’t drop an affinity (due to only having one, or none as a Champion), a random timed affinity between 3 and 6 hours will be given to all attackers.
PvP Mission changes:
*Properly check the correct region when building mission structures on pvp.
*Lowered the number of players required for x player missions on pvp.
*Fixed rewards string for build missions.
*Changed create/sacrifice missions to take into account more number of items properly (bell tower is more than 2 items, for example).
*PvP servers should get less “requires x players” missions at higher difficulties.

Example of this is a FA weapon causing multiple burn wounds to the same position on the body if hit there multiple times.
