As a reminder to our customers, the\nalternate planes of reality do not necessarily follow the same\nphysical or ethereal rules as Norrath proper. Enjoy!\n\nToday is patch day! The EverQuest servers have been patched with the\nfollowing changes:\n\n*General Changes / Fixes*\n\n- Some changes have been made to the exit of Nagafen's Lair into the\nLavastorm Mountains. This will hopefully reduce if not solve the bug\nthat causes people to fall into lava when exiting Nagafen's Lair.\nPlease let us know how this goes.\n\n- Due to feedback received from the customers concerning the density\nof fog during rainstorms, visibility has been increased.\n\n- All drops of steel weapons have been replaced with higher quality\nfine-steel weapons of the same type. This change was made to reduce\nthe amount of new currency coming into the world at the mid-to-upper\nlevels. The fine-steel weapons are in all cases superior to the steel\nweapons that were dropping, they just sell to vendors for less money.\n\n- Casting times have been implemented on several activatable items.\nThis was done to correct issues that could arise from people\nchain-casting these items.\n\n- The safe-point (the point which you return if you fall below the\nworld) in Kithicor has been moved near the entrance to Rivervale, a\nsafer part of the zone.\n\n- Corrected a bug that caused AC to be improperly displayed for higher\nlevel characters. Your AC should now reflect all of your items.\n\nAdditional Bug Fixes:\n\n- Corrected a bug in the client that could cause a crash if you were\nspammed with emotes by someone on your /ignore list.\n- Corrected a bug that allowed ships to move faster when disarmed\n- Corrected a bug that caused the Aqualung to lose its charges if\ndropped on the ground.\n- Fire Giants in Nagafen's Lair should now recover properly when stuck\nin lava. Consider yourself warned.\n- The Instill Doubt skill has been disabled on the PvP servers.\n\n*Spell Changes*\n\n- Shadow Vortex is now a \"drain\" spell.\n- Siphon Strength will now stack with strength buffs and debuffs\n- Panic the Dead cast and recast delays have been reduced. In\naddition, the spell is less resistable.\n- Angstlich's Appalling Screech had its radius increased slightly.\n- All Wizard AoE damage and stun spells have had their radius slightly\nincreased\n- Yonder will now interact better with levitate.\n- Form of the Great Wolf had its speed component increased.\n- Terrorize Animal had its casting time reduced and is less\nresistable.\n- New magician's spells have been added. Check your spell vendors.\n- Reoccurring Amnesia has been made more effective.\n- NPCs will now treat the \"Cancel Magic\" series of spells as hostile.\nPreviously, NPCs did not mind if players dispelled all of their buffs\nbefore attacking. Now they will. - The Fear and Charm series of spells\nnow properly notify the caster when they break. No, seriously, we're\ncertain this time.\n- Harmtouch now does more damage beginning at level 41.\n\n*Levitation Changed*\n\nDue to the implementation of casting times on activatable items, the\ncode that disallowed refreshing of the Levitation spell while it was\nactive is no longer necessary and has been backed out. The Levitate\nspell may now be refreshed while the spell is in use.\n\n*Quests and Items*\n\n- The Armor of Ro should be more obtainable. We will continue to\nevaluate and adjust the rarity of other class-specific armor\ncomponents to make the pieces obtainable in a reasonable amount of\ntime.\n\n- We have changed the reward of a newbie quest in the Qeynos area from\na level 49 scroll to a level 1 scroll. The issuance of a level 49\nscroll was a typo in the quest data, allowing new characters to amass\nan abnormally large amount of currency.\n\n- The stats on the reward for the Rogue Redemption quest have been\nincreased to make it better than the favorite dropped-weapon for the\nlevel range.\n\n- Ravenscale boots will now drop as frequently as other Ravenscale\nitems.\n\n- The Mask of Deception may now be equipped by the appropriate races.\n\n*Fletching Update*\n\nAll arrows created with the new Silver-Tipped Arrowhead (formerly the\nBladed Arrowhead) are now magical in nature, and may be used versus\nmagical creatures. All existing items in your possession will\nautomatically morph into the new magical items. Additionally, each\nsuccessful attempt to create magical arrows will yield 10 arrows\ninstead of the previous 5. As such, the vendor buy-back value has been\ndecreased accordingly.\n\n*Paw*\n\nThe difficulty of Paw has been decreased. We found that many of the\ngnolls in the new Paw had too many hitpoints, making the dungeon more\ndifficult than it should have been for the desired level target.\nPlease let us know how this change affects the viability of the\ndungeon.\n\n*The Plane of Fear*\n\nThe item-drop percentages in the Plane of Fear have been increased.\nThis change was supposed to have occurred in the last patch, however\nthe data was not exported. It has been tested and equipment drops are\nnow occurring at a much higher rate.\n\n*The Plane of Hate*\n\nThe item-drop percentages on roaming and fast-spawning NPCs in the\nPlane of Hate have been decreased. Previously, these NPCs used the\nsame drop-percentages as the slow-spawning NPCs, causing overall drop\npercentages to be extremely high.\n\nAlso, the inhabitants of the Plane of Hate no longer fall for\nillusions, and tend to \"Hate\" everyone.\n\n*Monk Enhancement*\n\nA monk's speed in hand-to-hand combat will now improve with level,\nbeginning in the high 20s. This will result in higher level monks\ndoing substantially more damage in a given time-frame.\n\nThough this change does increase the power of the average monk, it\nshould be stressed that the monk is now even more in need of true tank\nclasses who have the ability to taunt upset creatures off them. We\nwant to stress that the \"taunt factor\" of a monks fist has NOT been\nincreased, though it may appear so due to your increased damage.\n\n*Paladin/Shadowknight Enhancement*\n\nPaladins and Shadowknights now have a higher hitpoints and higher\nskill caps on Bash and Taunt.\n\nThe additional hitpoints will be noticeable for Paladins and SKs over\nlevel 25. This was done because the Paladins, SKs, and Rangers had the\nsame HP base, which upon further consideration is not compatible with\nour vision of those classes' roles. This change will basically put\nPaladin and SK HPs midway (in terms of Hit Points) between rangers and\nwarriors of the same race.\n\nThe taunt skill was increased because SKs, and in particular, Paladins\nhad difficulty taunting opponents off of Rangers, Monks, Rogues, and\nWarriors due to their lower damage output. Though the Paladin and SK\nwill never equal the warrior in their ability to taunt, this change in\naddition to some of the taunting spells should help them become more\neffective tanks.\n\nBash was increased because Paladins typically aren't switching to\ntwo-handed weapons, choosing instead to continue using the bash skill.\nMost warriors, being ogres, trolls, or barbarians for the most part,\ndo not worry about bash and instead opt for slam, which uses the same\nskill. Paladins are typically the only characters who use a shield\nthroughout their lives.\n\n*Rogue Enhancement*\n\nWhenever a rogue is invisible, whether by spell, potion, or skill,\nthey are now also invisible to undead.\n\nThis change was made to add a definite class-advantage to the rogue,\nallowing them to do something that no other class could do. It is the\nfirst step in a multi-step process to improve the rogue class.\n\n*Wizard Enhancement*\n\nLevel 35 or above wizards will find that their spells (Magic, Cold, or\nFire) much less likely to be resisted. This effect stacks with the\nStaff of Temperate Flux and enchanter, shaman, and magician resistance\ndebuffs.\n\nThis change was made to increase the effectiveness of wizards at about\nthe level that all spell-casting classes start seeing their resistance\nrates go up. Wizards specialize in direct magical damage. It makes\nsense that they should be better at causing that damage than the other\nclasses.\n\n*Bard Enhancement*\n\nBards will now receive the Meditate skill at 10th level. This skill\nwill be granted automatically the first time a bard zones after\nreaching 10th level, and cannot be trained further. It will have the\neffect of decreasing the amount of time that it takes a Bard to\nmemorize their songs. Previously, it would take 50th level bards\nupwards of 2 minutes to memorize a song. Now it is much faster.\n\n*Druid Enhancement*\n\nThe skill cap on a Druid's tracking skill has been increased. This\nchange was implemented based upon general public opinion that the\nformer cap was far too low for the skill to be even marginally viable.\n\n\n*Feign Death and Pets*\n\nAfter a serious discussion regarding the Necromancer's Feign Death\ntactic, as well as reviewing public opinion on the matter, we have\nimplemented a change. As we would like everyone to understand why we\nfeel this change was necessary, here is a summary of the issue:\n\nProblem: Feign death allows you to become an invalid target in all\ncircumstances, providing offensive tactics that are abusive. For this\nability to remain balanced, the pet should follow the same rules as\ninvisibility. Offensive tactics used by other classes involve the\ncreature getting a saving throw verses the effect. Since creatures do\nNOT get a direct save verses feign death (as you cast it on yourself),\nand since you can retry the combat once you have feigned death, there\nis very little risk to necromancer himself. As this tactic involves\ncharming an NPC and turning it against another NPC, which could be\npart of the same spawn, it allows for Necromancers to solo MUCH bigger\nrooms than any other class could. This situation is well beyond what\nwould preserve game balance for any other class (soloing the\nBloodthirsty Ghoul room and Ghoul Lord room, for example).\n\nExample: While there are many examples of how the Necromancer Feign\nDeath tactic is abusive, one of the most egregious occurs in the Ghoul\nLord room of Lower Guk. The room consists of 2 Bok Ghoul Guards and\nthe Ghoul Lord himself. Using the current system, a level 50 Necro can\neasily solo the room at virtually no risk to himself. The Necro can\nget into the room quite easily with Invis To Undead. To clear the room\nhe uses Screaming Terror on one Bok and Charms the other. When the\nGhoul Lord rushes him, he feigns. The Lord then turns on the charmed\nBok and kills it, taking considerable damage during the fight. The\nNecromancer waits until the Ghoul Lord returns to its spawn point.\nWhen the necromancer gets back up, he is in no danger of being\nattacked due to the way Feign Death works now. He then charms the 2nd\nBok and Feigns again. The fight goes on and the 2nd Bok is killed.\nWhen the Necromancer gets back up he has a VERY wounded Ghoul Lord AND\nnearly full mana. The Lord is now an easy kill, and the Necro collects\nhis special items.\n\nSolution: Ideally, Feign Death should work like Invisibility, where\nsummoned pets suicide and the charmed ones break Charm. We do not\nwant, however, to adversely affect lower level Necromancers to such a\nlarge degree. What we do recognize is the need to prevent higher level\nNecro's from exploiting key spawn points. Hence, when you Feign Death,\nany charmed NPC will immediately break Charm. However, summoned NPCs\n(pets) will NOT be affected. While this still allows the use of the\nFeign Death tactic with your summoned pet, it does not imbalance the\ngame and many dungeon spawns to the degree that charming an NPC does.\n\n*Manastone Changed*\n\nThe players have raised many concerns about the power of the\nManastone, which no longer drops. They cite that people without a\nManastone are not as welcome in expeditions to the outer planes and\nother areas as people with them. Since dropping additional Manastones\nvia quest or removing them from the existing populace is not\ndesirable, we've decided to make it so that the Manastone will no\nlonger function in the alternate planes. Furthermore, it will not\nfunction in any of the zones included with the Kunark Expansion.\n\nWe apologize to those adversely affected by this change. Our general\ngoal is to avoid making changes to items in peoples' possession,\nhowever we felt this change was, all things considered, warranted and\nfor the benefit of the game as a whole.\n\n- The EverQuest Team","content_hash":"f5dca1b1d54ad7becd2cc387d5ebc91cf6d66e040ddb4b19ae5d61e79cb3b1d1","source_files":["patches-2000-1.txt"],"source_titles":["January 20th, 7:00am"],"source_url":null,"source_urls":[],"occurrence_count":1,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"82cbff67cb659737150b4c1b14be5cd4e01caefc70fdd17dc6199217ab16253c","filename":"patches-2000-1.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":91,"item_index":null,"heading":"January 20th, 7:00am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":true}],"year_inferred":true,"sequence":1,"slug":"2000-01-20-1","id":"2000-01-20-1"}]}
