Patch Notes: Faction Missions

New World - Faction Missions
Rates of influence gain over time have been adjusted, so that it will continue to require significant effort over time to flip a territory into conflict state:

  • Reduced the amount of influence increase over time significantly for attacking factions. This is to account for a bug found where the increase was multiplied much faster than intended over time.
  • Removed the decrease in influence over time for defending factions.
