* Quests, Adventures and Encounters *
We have added one more new LDoN raid to Stormhammer. This raid was
created with Elemental capable characters in mind.
Changed the minimum required number of group members to request an
adventure from 4 to 3.
We have increased the consolation prize on level 65 hard adventures
from 19 to 26 to match the increase in reward points for success
(raised from 76 to 105 with the last update).
Verrell Cogswin can help convert red dragon scales into green dragon
scales.
Fixed the Undead and Fire event in the Plane of Time. There was a bug
that could cause some of the minions to fail to spawn.
Raotin Teawel will always give out the correct robe for completion of
his quest.
Thought Destroyer has returned to the Plane of Hate.
Check with the Town Crier of your home town for news. There is
information about the recent activities of the Wayfarers that should
prove interesting.
We have made some improvements to the Plane of Air avatar rings. We
have added a random interval to the respawn time of the Plane of Air
avatar rings, placed apparitions at the avatar spawns so that it is
possible to tell when the event is available, and the Avatar of Smoke
will now respawn properly.
The Mujaki event in Plane of Nightmares was completely rewritten._ It
should now be a lot more intelligent about where it sends players.
Increased the number of items found at the end of a successful LDoN
raid.
* Skills and Alternate Advancement *
Channeling Focus was not giving bards the proper reduction to the
chance of missing a note._ It is now fixed and gives messages to
indicate when it is has helped.
Corrected a problem that was causing Alternate Advancement buff
duration increase abilities and duration focus effects to negatively
affect lull spells.
We have fixed a bug that could cause pick pocketed items to not show
up on your cursor until you zone. This could also sometimes cause the
client to crash.
Added /stoptracking command so that you no longer have to re-open the
track window and hit cancel if you want to cancel your tracking
quickly.
Activated AAs from Planes of Power were not working if the user did
not have Shadows of Luclin registered. This has been fixed.
* Spells and Pets *
The Aura of Pain Recourse can no longer be removed by Radiant Cure.
When the character changes size (through illusion), other players
will no longer see the mounted player separate from their horse.
Magician Pets will no longer attack the caster who summoned them.
Hitting your own pet while in a PVP area or while you have the PK
flag on will no longer kill it.
Cataclysm of Ro has had its movement rate bonus removed to fix a
stacking issue with the Selo's line of movement rate songs.
Cassindra's Chant of Clarity_and Cassindra's Chorus of Clarity now
lasts 3 ticks instead of being instant.
Cloak of Luclin, Cloak of the Akheva and Frostreaver's Blessing will
no longer be overwritten by Call of the Rathe.
There are still some issues with Frostreaver's blessing being
overwritten by some spells._ We are aware of the issue and hope to get
it resolved soon.
Protection of the Cabbage, Protection of the Glades and Protection of
the Nine will block Temperance, Aegolism and Virtue.
Ice Flame of E`ci now has the standard 2.5 second recast time.
Reclaim energy should now function properly on the pet summoned by
Child of Bertoxxulous.
-Beastlord warders focused by Summoner's boon should now look as they
should.
* Interface *
We have added the consider color to the Target window. The art used
to display the consider color can be removed or edited via XML by
custom skins.
We have also added a 3D target indicator._ The ring color indicates
the con color of the target._ This can be turned off in the Options
window. A new settings file in the UI folder can be edited by players
to customize the appearance of the indicator, including different
animated textures for each con color and other interesting settings.
Added /fontface command (usage /fontface , e.g. /fontface Courier).
This will change, on the fly, the fonts used by the interface (and over
character's heads). Fonts can also be selected in the General Options
page.
Added /tell windows. Each time you get a "tell" from a new character,
a new chat window would open. That window will only display "tells"
from the particular character, and any message sent from the chat
window would automatically be sent as a "tell" to that character. You
can turn this option on and off in the Options window. If you have the
maximum number of chat windows open when a new tell is received, the
tell will go to the main chat window
Temporary pets will no longer send their buffs to the pet window.
Generally they have none, and they would replace the buffs of any
standard pet.
The buff display portion of the pet window will now fade.
The Auto-inventory area of the Inventory window now fades with the
parent window.
The Dump button in raid window now creates the proper, non-blank,
file.
We have also added time-stamp to Raid Dump output file.
Pop-up dialogs no longer close when you press ESC. This will prevent
the rez dialog from being closed accidentally.
Lay on Hands will no longer "gray out" the Inspect and Open hot keys
in the Hotbutton window. This was fixed earlier in the Actions window,
but now it is fixed in the Hotbutton window as well.
Alt-tabbing in and out of EQ should no longer cause mouse issues.
Fixed a bug that sometimes left charmed pets health bar in the group
window after the owner of that pet is killed.
Find trader can now be cancelled in bazaar.
* Items *
The Copper Medal of Rapture now gives a bonus to Int. instead of Wis.
* For the New Player *
Left-clicking on an NPC prints out a message indicating what type of
NPC they are and indicating that you should right-click on them. This
message can be turned off in the Options window.
New characters will now start with a bag.
Added a tip window that pops up when you invoke the Quantity window
that explains the use of Shift and Control when selecting items.
All characters will gain a Sense Heading skill of 200, if it was
below 200. All new characters will start with a Sense Heading of 200.
