NCSoft has kicked off its first Throne and Liberty update for 2025, introducing several quality-of-life enhancements along with plenty of bug fixes. The Throne and Liberty developer has also announced that the Startree Solstice Pass Point Shop will stick around until January 16 to give players more time to use their unspent Shop Points.

Throne and Liberty is a free-to-play MMORPG that did pretty well in its early days, peaking at 54,812 concurrent players before its full release. Even though Throne and Liberty suffered from some technical issues, players have enjoyed its flexible character progression system along with other engaging features. The developer has rolled out a patch to address some of these problems while also bringing new content through Halloween and Christmas events. 2025 has just started, and NCSoft is already rolling up its sleeves to address player feedback.

Throne And Liberty: Best Longbow Skills To Unlock

When it comes to choosing Longbow skills in Throne and Liberty, these are the best options to go with.

Among some of the general changes introduced in Throne and Liberty update 1.12.0 are combat improvements, such as an enhanced way of displaying party member beneficial effects on screen. Additionally, the way combat presets are displayed has been improved, making it easier for players to adjust their settings. Other combat changes involve fixes to how incoming damage is reflected in certain Throne and Liberty dungeons or Dimensional Trials. Plus, players will no longer be able to place the cursor over a party member to auto-target them.

Players adventuring in Throne and Liberty‘s Saurodoma Island dungeon should know that the token selection box will expire after 24 hours if not used. Moreover, those who try to consume Training Dew while equipping a weapon at max weapon mastery will receive a reminder that the experience won’t apply to the capped weapon type. Adjustments have been made to maps to improve how the region details UI information. Other UI changes include inventory adjustments, better team management in War Games, more options for particular interfaces, chat functionality improvements, and more.

As in the previous Throne and Liberty update, this one fixes several other issues. For instance, it improves search functionality on consoles, addresses problems with non-target abilities, and fixes issues with the Battle Pass.

The developer also let players know that, due to an issue that prevented them from making the best use of the Startree Solstice Pass Point Shop, the duration of the shop will be extended until January 16, allowing them to use their unspent Shop Points. With all these changes and updates, Throne and Liberty is set for a more polished start to 2025.

Throne and Liberty Update 1.12.0 Patch Notes

General

Guild Summon gates now properly last for the expected 3 minute duration.
Combat: Made improvements to how beneficial effects of party members are displayed when you select “only show my animations” from the settings so that healing effects like Fountain of Life will still appear.
Saurodoma Island: The dungeon token selection box awarded for successfully claiming chest spawns will now expire after 24 hours if not opened.
Training Dew: When one of your equipped weapons is at max weapon mastery, attempting to consume Training Dew will now show a warning message that the experience will not apply to the capped weapon type.
War Games: Respawn protection buff (Fonsine’s Blessing) no longer applies in War Game matches.
Maps: Adjusted the placement of the Region Details UI for available content and monster info.
Character: Corrected differences in display of character hair color between the character creation screen and in-world models.
Controller: Party Vote Kick should no longer lock movement when using a controller.
Gameplay: Fixed an issue where initiating gathering while morphed would fail to display the gathering animation.
Settings: Improved the presentation of Combat Settings presets that were causing confusion when making settings changes that then only applied during combat, or were not saved to the preset and reverted when closing the window. There is now a Current Settings tab to show settings currently applied to your client that allows you to make changes, which are saved and applied in real time. Individual Settings Presets are now applied persistently when activated, rather than only applying during combat mode.
Ornate Coin Shop: New items are now up for grabs in the Ornate Coin shop – including fresh titles, morphs, and Amitoi!

Sword: Retaliatory Strike: Fixed enemy health bars not updating immediately when damage was dealt with this ability.
Interserver Conflict: Fixed instances where some field bosses would appear at level 55 instead of level 50.
Spear: Unyielding Sentinel: Now increases the CC resistances each time the player is hit for up to 15 hits. Cooldown reduced to 24 seconds.
Spear: Unyielding Sentinel: Added specialization that removes Unyielding Sentinel’s base effects, and instead grants hit and CC accuracy each time the user lands an attack.

UI

Chat: Fixed HTML code displayed in chat in certain messages.
