- New instanced player cities are now available for organizations that do not already own a city. To claim a city plot enter the Serenity Islands door in ICC. Player markets will not be available in the new cities.
- City upkeep will now be deducted directly from the Organization Bank. **IMPORTANT: Cities in debt at the time of the update will be destroyed. To keep your city please make sure your upkeep is paid before the update.**
- A new super-luxury orbital residence is now available for purchase. Purchase is available for paid points or credits at the Phasefront platform on Newland lake. For a limited time the Phasefront Classic - Charon vehicle is included with the purchase of the Luxury Residence.
- Map Navigation skill will now be resetable. Reseting this skill will remove your current maps and map upgrades.
- Target NCU window. See your hostile nanos running on your target (with restrictions on which ones you can see).

- Added /duel draw. Currently neither of the participants get a loss for using draw.
- Added battlestation chat channel(s).

- New facepalm emote added to properly express dissatisfaction on elements of this list that do not work properly on Patch Day.
Continuing Work on eliminating previous issues:
Preliminary (not set in stone) "Balancing Efforts"
These are the first of many balance related changes coming with the 18.x update series. Much larger changes to basic systems (AS, FA, healing and specials etc.) will be coming in the near future so all individual profession changes should be viewed as small and possibly temporary parts of larger changes to come.
- Bureaucrat Stun research procs are now roots as opposed to stuns and Nanodamage modifier research procs changed from 8 to 200% for 8 seconds.
- Attack Rating of Anti-Personnel Vehicles increased significantly.
- Pistol perk lines boosted and opened up for more professions.
- Improvement to "Blunt" perk lines.
- Adjustments made to Fixer perk lines.
- New perk line for Ranged Adventurers.
- New tradeskills available to improve some "Xan" weapons. (Components are available in standard tradeskill shops.)
Other Improvements:
- Adjustments made to the Bazzit Quest Line to prevent players from having to petition when losing a quest.
- Improvements made to Peacekeeper Constad quest line to prevent players from having to petition when losing a quest.
- Behaviour changes to Scheol and Elysium quest monsters to avoid them getting lost/unavailable.
- Arul Saba Bracelets have been renamed individually for clarity and ease of search.
- New chat command Waypoint command available.(/waypoint x z playfield#)
- Heavy Patrollers in Sector 42 should now longer summon/warp players away from their groups or out of coccoons.
- Immunity Laser fence buff in Sector 42 should now be 10 minutes in duration to prevent termination during LDs of raid members.
- The NanoAC debuff of Overwhelming Storm, Incessant Fury and Distracting Shower should now stack correctly.
