    I have posted the same thing at disc #constructive feedbacks so ima just bring it here
    TL;DR
    1. Post changelogs right after the update
    2. Add detailed item changelog
    3. Add ingame alerts about the change

    1. What is the problem?
    1) Changelogs are always posted after a few days the update is live + the updates on the changelog are not applied simultaneously Ok, its been about a week after lament nerf and the changelog is live now. Raid changes and balancing are always made a few days before the changelog is live. I think ingame changes should be properly notifyed to players when they are LIVE, not after a few days.

    2) No specific stat changes are noticed at changelog (Rebalanced Items & Ids) I know that there are some sources that players can get info about item changes, but I wonder why they shouldn't be official. It is kinda awkward to make players check item changelogs themselves when changelog exists, isn't it?

    3) No ingame alerts about update Except for the major updates, there are no ingame notices about the changes. There are no pinging roles for ⁠#changelog , so it is kinda hard for players in the community to get alerted about changes. It gets worse when the player isn't in the community, since they have no chance to get info about the change. Players are highly affected of the updates, so why don't you give a chance to checkout the changelog?

    2. How can we make changes?
    1) Changelog posted after a few days that update is live + ~~
    • Push the updates when changelogs are live, or put changelogs when changes are live.
    2) Rebalanced Items: no specific stat changes are noticed at changelog
    • Add detailed item changelog. If it gets too long, just add a small link to it.
    3) No ingame alerts about update
    Add some notices ingame. Few ideas are
    • Add notices at chat when logging into the game. Like "N items were sold in trade market"
    • Add update board npc or something, making it to stop players if some updates are live ingame. (I'll just bring the example of the quest "Star Thief", which makes the quest started if the player passes certain location)
    Apologies for my bad English, Thanks for Reading!

    Oh and is there any changelogs at the forum? I think post-2.1 changelogs are only in discord, so I'd like to see those at forums too!

    im pretty sure they're still on the forums?
    though idk (i don't use discord)
    the issue i've seen on the forums is actually the changelog being published too EARLY and having some content already outdated by the time the update releases.
