As others have said, the Patch Notes have the details on what’s changed.
Good question! A few things you could focus your efforts on if you want to:
- Test out the Player Housing, just enter it and then leave it and make sure it works.
- Group up with some folks and test the Chain XP Bonus system.
- Level up to level 8 and do the dungeon with a group.
- Do a little solo leveling and see how the combat difficulty tuning feels to you.
- Just explore and socialize and have fun! A lot of the test is really just making sure that the new stuff we added isn’t going to cause the servers to overload, tracking down server-side bugs, etc.
As for Known Issues, I will start a list on the Patch Notes page since there are a few things we already know about, but generally speaking you can feel free to report any bugs/issues you find, if you re-report something it’s no biggie for now. Obviously it’s Alpha so there’s a difference between something feeling ‘incomplete’ and something being buggy. For example, obviously right now there is no good way to trade items between players, some of the monsters are walking on hillsides, etc. That kind of stuff we’ll obviously fix. But if for example you find that you frequently get “stuck in combat” or the teleportation stops working entirely or you try to go into a dungeon and you end up in the side of a mountain…those would be great bug reports to get at this point in the process
