- Claim Shield: Added to prominent NMs to provide a fair playing experience for all players. HorizonXI uses a lottery based claim shield system where each person has the opportunity to act on the mob once for a chance to claim the monster. After all players have acted and the claim window has closed, the monster will randomly select one person who acted on it and give them the claim. Multiple actions taken on a monster during the lottery do not increase your chances at claiming - each person can only enter the claim lottery once before the lottery window ends.
- Inventory Expansions: Mog Wardrobes 1 and 2 to be unlocked by completing certain objectives (see “System: Inventory Expansion” section below)
- Treasure Hunter: Era accurate (we used SE's official Treasure Hunter chart to build our system)
- Era accurate drop rates: Drop rates for all items have been adjusted to reflect the era experience more accurately
