Players will now be able to further modify \nassociate factions in the appropriate direction.\n\n- Random-effects on weapons carried by pets will now behave as if the \npet is a player character rather than an NPC. The change last patch \nreduced them to a rate below player characters. As part of this patch, \ntarget-specific random effects will only work if the target is the \nintended type. For instance, a weapon that processes \"Dismiss Summoned\" \nwill only \"go off\" on a summoned NPC instead of everything. \n\n- Added some code that should address if not eliminate a problem \nreported by people whereas the client would \"freeze\" for a second or \ntwo every few minutes. For those who do not have IRQ sharing and/or \ndriver problems, this should address the issue.\n\n- Made final positive modifications to several Epic Quest rewards. \nIncluded in these changes: the SK weapon will now allow you to bash \nwhile carrying it. \n\n- Fixed a problem that gave people problems when exiting the game and \nattempting to get back in.\n\n- Added some code to address reports from people who find exiting from \nthe character-select screen back to the server-select screen rather \nslow when mip-mapping is enabled. Most of this problem is due to \nroutines in DX required to release resources consumed by mip-mapping \nand may not be addressable until the next version of DirectX is \nadopted.\n\n- Changed customizable key mappings so that the ESC key will clear the \n\"NOKEY\" setting instead of the \"Backspace\". This means that you can now \nassign \"Backspace\" to a function in game.\n\n- Corrected a sound problem that would cause certain sounds to be \nplayed \"rapid-fire\" under some circumstances. There is still a \npotential for this to happen with some other sounds that will be \naddressed in a patch in the near future.\n\n- Corrected a problem in Kedge Keep that made the top encounter more \ndifficult than intended after the server had been up for a while.\n\n- Higher level Magician, Necromancer, and Shadowknight pets now have \nthe ability to dual-wield without being handed weapons. The calculation \nused to determine whether or not this ability exists takes several \nthings into account, but for the most part 39th level and above summons \n(higher for the Shadowknight) will have this ability. It is possible \nthat you could get a \"good\" 34th level pet that will, or a \"bad\" 39th \nlevel pet that will not have this ability. \n\n- Bards of the land, hark unto me: The notes have been scribed on \ntattered parchment, two score and nine, for you they are meant. Abandon \nyour mates, though they may fume, and follow the call of the seafarer's \ntune.\n\n- The Monk's hand-to-hand skill cap has been raised to a level equal to \ntheir one-handed blunt skill.\n\nRemember! Only a few days left until the launch of EverQuest: The Scars \nof Velious. Reserve your copy at your local retailer today!\n\n\n- The EverQuest Team","content_hash":"c05cfab79c149dd4fe22b0cc656845103bbb4595c74dbf60e0e807684f80fe33","source_files":["patches-2000-2.txt","patches_1999-2008_combined.md","patches_1999-2010_combined.txt"],"source_titles":["November 29, 2000 3:00 am"],"source_url":null,"source_urls":[],"occurrence_count":3,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"517e8a558d4f191d9fd468f3645aaaf53942fc0a21c0b138e4c757b7fcff8736","filename":"patches_1999-2008_combined.md","adapter":"markdown","source_offset":106833,"item_index":null,"heading":"November 29, 2000 3:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"markdown","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"e667732f70613ce46bf3e0210db3800ce0d3f4a5c630ea2f91ccdaec28e34e89","filename":"patches_1999-2010_combined.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":110809,"item_index":null,"heading":"November 29, 2000 3:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"d5b06f2cbcc592cf8296e328bcb77107e34d84f85c47b668389274ee2210ed06","filename":"patches-2000-2.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":49133,"item_index":null,"heading":"November 29, 2000 3:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false}],"year_inferred":false,"sequence":1,"slug":"2000-11-29-1","id":"2000-11-29-1"},{"patch_date":"2000-11-21","effective_date":"2000-11-21","display_date":"November 21, 2000 3:00 am","title":"November 21, 2000 3:00 am","year":2000,"month":11,"kind":"live","era":"EverQuest Live","expansion":"The Ruins of Kunark","expansion_code":"the-ruins-of-kunark","categories":[{"slug":"bug-fixes","label":"Bug Fixes"},{"slug":"classes","label":"Classes"},{"slug":"spells-aa","label":"Spells & AA"},{"slug":"items","label":"Items"},{"slug":"quests-events","label":"Quests & Events"},{"slug":"ui","label":"UI"},{"slug":"servers","label":"Servers"},{"slug":"audio-graphics","label":"Audio & Graphics"}],"sections":["Patch Day"],"change_count":10,"word_count":247,"summary":"Patch Day* Today's patch addresses a few problems noted by customers since last week's big patch.

The new sound engine supports additional \nEAX features and should address the concerns of SBLive users that have \nbeen posted in the past.\n\n*Movelog for Povar and Tarew Marr*\n\nThe /movelog window will be opened for Povar and Tarew Marr on Saturday \n11/18 and Sunday 11/19 from 6PM PST (GMT-8) to Midnight. All players \nwishing to have all of their characters moved (on a per-account basis) \nfrom those servers to the new split-server should execute \"/movelog \nyes\" during the windows.\n\nThe physical character move will take place next week on Tuesday or \nWednesday. Please check the scheduled downtime page of \nwww.everquest.com for a firm time when it is decided. Remember that \ncorpses will not follow you to the new server, so anyone deciding to \nmove will want to be sure that all corpses are looted prior to the time \nof the actual move. \n\nAs this patch features new /movelog logic to eliminate problems with \npeople being left behind, players should not count on customer-service \nintervention after the physical move if they were unable to execute the \ncommand during the window. You will need to be present and execute the \ncommand in order to move.\n\n*Spell Changes*\n\n-- Pixie Strike: Made it less resistible by reducing the secondary \nresist.\n-- Song of Twilight: Increased duration. Made less resistible by \nremoving the secondary resist. Allowed it to be cast at any time of \nday.\n-- Fixed the effect on the Necromancer Epic Quest Item. The effect was \nchecking resist on each tick instead of running full course.\n-- Increased the duration of the effect on the Enchanter Epic Quest \nItem.\n-- Fixed the \"Modulating Rod\" so that it can be used by the appropriate \nraces.\n-- Fixed the Lost Staff of the Scorned\n-- Maniacal Strength will now correctly overwrite the level 49 strength \nspell.\n-- The Death Pact and Divine Intervention spells will now stack \nappropriately with other spells that have similar effects.\n\n-- Modified the \"Jonathan's\" line of songs to remove the \"skin\" effect \nin order to allow bards to use them more effectively in combat. In \naddition, we made them \"Self Only\" spells rather than \"Single Target\" \nspells in order to allow bards to remain in combat while singing them.\n\n*General Fixes/Changes*\n\n-- Fixed a bug that caused an NPC on \"Sister's Isle\" to attack people \nwho were fighting pirates.\n-- Removed Paladins as an authorized class for piercing weapons in game \nsince they do not have the piercing skill.\n-- The \"Belt of the River\" quest should now work correctly.\n-- Fixed all known problems with the class-specific epic quests.\n-- Implemented some new race-specific quests for Iksar.\n-- Positively modified most Epic Quest Items. Please check your items \nto see your changes. Note: Not all changes will be evident by looking \nat the item.\n-- Fixed the NPC bosses in the Plane of Sky that were not dropping the \ncorrect loot.\n-- Your bread tin will now be returned when baking bread.\n-- Fixed the Wellford Fargin keyword problem in Firiona Vie.\n-- Made the \"Gravebinder\" a magic weapon.\n\n-- Repaired the Forager Bag. It was causing people to lose weight when \nplacing items in the bag. It is supposed to have a weight reduction \ncomponent, but was not supposed to cause weight loss.\n\n-- Taunt: Increased effectiveness above level 50. Previously, creatures \nabove level 50 could not be taunted by means of the taunt skill. Now, \nmost creatures below the character's level can now be successfully \ntaunted. As a note, the chance to taunt a creature above 50th level is \nsmaller than that of a creature below 50th.\n\n\n*Client Enhancements*\n\n-- You now have 10 pages of 10 hotboxes each when in full screen mode.\n-- You can now customize 10 pages of 12 socials each, increasing the \ntotal number of available socials by 108.\n-- Fixed a bug with the keyboard.txt file causing some keys to \ntranslate incorrectly.\n-- Fixed a bug that caused some window positions to save improperly at \nhigher resolutions.\n-- All key mappings are now stored in the EQCLIENT.INI file.\n\n-- Fixed all known problems with the clipping plane slider. Users \nshould now see differences for the entire range of adjustment in zones \nthat support an adjustable clipping plane.\n\n-- Players on PvP servers will no longer show \"[LD]\" over their heads \nwhen linkdead. In addition, these same players will no longer show as \n\"LinkDead\" in the /who list.\n\n-- Players can now set custom text colors while in game. /usercolor: \nUsage \"/usercolor UserColorNumber R G B\" where \"UserColorNumber is the \nnumber of the color as indicated in the EQCLIENT.INI file, and R, G, \nand B are red, green and blue respectively. All changes will be \nautomatically saved to your EQCLIENT.INI file.\n\n-- OPT files in your EverQuest directory now have a number after the \ncharacter name indicating the server number. As such, you will now be \nable to have characters of the same name on two separate servers with \ndifferent custom options.\n\n-- The eqlog.txt file now has a name that includes the server number \nand character name. For instance, if your character is named \"Bobb\", \nand you are on Server 1, your log text file name would be \neqlog_01_Bobb.txt.\n\n-- Added two new entries to the \"Defaults\" section of the EQCLIENT.INI \nfile: AttackOnAssist=TRUE|FALSE - Sets whether or not your autoattack \nturns on automatically when assisting. Defaults to \"TRUE\". \nShowInspectMessage=TRUE|FALSE - Sets whether or not you see the \n\"Soandso is inspecting you\" message. Defaults to \"TRUE\".\n\n-- Custom key mappings have been greatly enhanced. You can now set two \nkeys, a primary and an alternate, for each function in game. In \naddition, things that were previously not customizable can now be set \nto a key of your preference. Left-click on the key identifier to set \nthe primary key, right-click to set the secondary.\n\n-- Added the /note command. /note will append the following text to a \nfile called \"notes.txt\" in your EverQuest directory. For instance, \ntyping \"/note This is a note\" will put \"This is a note\" on the next \nline in the notes.txt file.\n\n- The EverQuest Team","content_hash":"ba00eaf874da8c1483023a6b5b04b89807643f078ef3048815a994ccab1cdded","source_files":["patches-2000-2.txt","patches_1999-2008_combined.md","patches_1999-2010_combined.txt"],"source_titles":["November 15, 2000 3:00 am"],"source_url":null,"source_urls":[],"occurrence_count":3,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"c7aba9445f9bff4a0981d8f6eec3c74237a733db4fee450a4839440d2cb77699","filename":"patches_1999-2008_combined.md","adapter":"markdown","source_offset":97657,"item_index":null,"heading":"November 15, 2000 3:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"markdown","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"0bf45e4a31422b852de62d908f82d9251cb60ec483991b7899851b3dc8de4049","filename":"patches_1999-2010_combined.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":101307,"item_index":null,"heading":"November 15, 2000 3:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"089b8023faf6941beb9328edcf516b2ec02b17391703a30934b1de3ab153bad9","filename":"patches-2000-2.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":39631,"item_index":null,"heading":"November 15, 2000 3:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false}],"year_inferred":false,"sequence":1,"slug":"2000-11-15-1","id":"2000-11-15-1"},{"patch_date":"2000-10-13","effective_date":"2000-10-13","display_date":"October 13, 2000 7:00 pm","title":"October 13, 2000 7:00 pm","year":2000,"month":10,"kind":"live","era":"EverQuest Live","expansion":"The Ruins of Kunark","expansion_code":"the-ruins-of-kunark","categories":[{"slug":"classes","label":"Classes"},{"slug":"quests-events","label":"Quests & Events"},{"slug":"ui","label":"UI"},{"slug":"audio-graphics","label":"Audio & Graphics"}],"sections":["Epic Quests"],"change_count":6,"word_count":481,"summary":"Important System Configuration Announcement*.

As many of you know, \nover the past couple of months we've made numerous enhancements to the \nEverQuest client. In addition to things such as new /-commands and \nother changes of that nature, we've enhanced the UI itself to allow \nmoveable and resizable windows, among other things. At the same time \nwe've been working on a brand new sound engine, and have been further \nconcentrating on optimizing and expanding the capabilities of the \nEverQuest client.\n\nFor most applications, the feature set of a version of DirectX is \nlimited to the lowest common denominator between the version that the \nsoftware is compiled under, and the version running on the client. This \nmeans that though you may be running DirectX 7.0a already, and are \nreceiving advantages associated with the more advanced code, the \nfeature-set of DirectX used when in EverQuest is limited to version \n5.2.\n\nThis limits the type and breadth of enhancements that can be made to \nthe client. Given that we feel that EverQuest players would enjoy \ncontinuing to see new enhancements for the client, we will soon begin \ncompiling the client under DirectX 7.0a, and implementing the feature-\nset available within that version. When we do this, everyone will need \nDirectX 7.0a (or higher) to play EverQuest. \n\nHere are some of the possible benefits from DirectX 7.0a:\n\n- Better performance (Graphics and Sound)\n\n- Gamma Correction working in D3D \n- Proper Mip-Mapping in D3D \n- Fixes fogging on some cards. (Some cards have no fogging at all and \nlook pretty bad) \n- Allows us to use newer interfaces to support such features as full-\nscreen anti-aliasing, and alternate Z-buffering methods, which tend to \nlook better.\n\nChanging to DX7 does have a potential downside. Those using older or \ndiscontinued video or sound cards that do not have DX7 compatible \ndrivers may need to upgrade to continue playing. However, we feel that \nthe benefits that will come from upgrading to this newer version of \nDirectX outweigh the potential problems.\n\nWe plan to begin requiring DirectX7.0a when the EverQuest client is \nnext patched, in two or three weeks. We wanted to be sure to give \neveryone enough time to check their version of DirectX and install the \nnewest version. You can run DXDIAG.EXE in your Windows\\System directory \nto check your DirectX version and get the newest version of DirectX \nfrom here if it is needed.\n\nPlease keep an eye on the patch message for further information \nregarding the planned implementation of DX7.\n\n*Epic Quests*\n\nDue to some difficulties regarding the Epic Quests implemented two \npatches ago, the epic quests for the Monk, Wizard, and Druid will not \nbe completable until the next patch. While we would like to have \nimplemented updates right away for these issues, we are mid-way in our \nconversion to support the DirectX changes that have been announced. \n\nWe appreciate your patience.\n\n- The EverQuest Team","content_hash":"9f7725f2b9af82a3a4e9c861931ac8af394a8f710a74d108d58d14a931e41090","source_files":["patches-2000-2.txt","patches_1999-2008_combined.md","patches_1999-2010_combined.txt"],"source_titles":["October 13, 2000 7:00 pm"],"source_url":null,"source_urls":[],"occurrence_count":3,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"0befbf0c755318e04b88b96a22b7634f20f3b7c4e22add1bf555e29f7700504c","filename":"patches_1999-2008_combined.md","adapter":"markdown","source_offset":94638,"item_index":null,"heading":"October 13, 2000 7:00 pm","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"markdown","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"409df4c8b6fcd3b7e7e2b017a3f93b7a07e7adf2f1eba8c16fb6848d4b1211aa","filename":"patches_1999-2010_combined.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":98190,"item_index":null,"heading":"October 13, 2000 7:00 pm","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"c1ab1a14b2672361d999593804b01c143695c7ee4ce498203f2d4c9f39ff0d3d","filename":"patches-2000-2.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":36514,"item_index":null,"heading":"October 13, 2000 7:00 pm","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false}],"year_inferred":false,"sequence":1,"slug":"2000-10-13-1","id":"2000-10-13-1"},{"patch_date":"2000-10-03","effective_date":"2000-10-03","display_date":"October 3, 2000 4:00 pm","title":"October 3, 2000 4:00 pm","year":2000,"month":10,"kind":"live","era":"EverQuest Live","expansion":"The Ruins of Kunark","expansion_code":"the-ruins-of-kunark","categories":[{"slug":"items","label":"Items"},{"slug":"zones-npcs","label":"Zones & NPCs"},{"slug":"quests-events","label":"Quests & Events"},{"slug":"servers","label":"Servers"}],"sections":["Today's Patch"],"change_count":1,"word_count":56,"summary":"Today's Patch* Today's patch consisted mostly of server-side changes, additions, and fixes regarding NPCs and quests.

This should help those on large multi-group encounters who \nneed some prep-time before looting items.\n- The item \"Woe\" has been repaired. If you receive the \"Item out of \ncharges\" message when your \"Woe\" attempts to fire its spell, please \ncontact a GM to trade out the item.\n- The spell \"Mark of Karn\" has been changed. The recast-time has been \nreduced significantly and the Hitpoint-return is now scaled inversely \nbased upon the delay of the weapon. In addition, a hitpoint return will \nonly take place when the target is hit with a primary melee weapon, or \nthe primary hand if you are unarmed.\n- Some more tradeskill component vendors have been placed within the \nworld to make certain tradeskills easier to use in your home town.\n- \"AFK\" and \"LD\" status will now be reported above player's heads. \n\n*Fleeing NPCs* \n\nLast week's patch caused NPCs to flee more than before due to a bug \nthat was fixed. After evaluating the situation, we decided to reduce \nthe chance to flee, but not to the extent that it was reduced before. \nNPCs were previously much more \"brave\" than they should have been. \n\nAs part of the same change, charmed NPCs also began fleeing when low on \nhealth. We've determined that this is not a good situation for the \nplayers. As such, we have stopped charmed creatures from fleeing per \nplayer request. \n\n*Level 1 Character Purge* \n\nThe Level 1 character purge has been completed. All level 1 characters \nthat have not been played within the past 30 days have been deleted. \n\n*New Server Active* \n\nTholuxe Paells, a new server open to new characters only, is now active \nand ready for play. Enjoy! As a reminder, /movelog registration will \ntake place on Mithaniel Marr and Tunare Friday evening from 6PM to \nMidnight (PDT: GMT-7). \nRegistered characters will be moved to a second new server, Drinal, \nearly next week. \n\n***User Interface Changes*** \n\nMany UI enhancements were made in today's patch: \n\n*Moving and Resizing Windows* \n\nThe data windows in the full screen \"HUD\" mode may now be moved by \nclicking in the upper left-hand corner, moving them to where you want, \nthen clicking again. The \"spell effect\" and \"chat\" windows can be \nresized by clicking on the lower right-hand corner, dragging to the \nappropriate size, and then clicking again. Coordinates for window \nlocations in each resolution are stored in the EQCLIENT.INI file. \n\n*Bugs with Several Commands Fixed* \n\nWe fixed a problem with /book, /sit, and /doability that allowed them \nto be executed at inappropriate times, such as while charmed or feared. \nThey should now only function when the native button would have \nfunctioned if pressed. \n\n*Miscellaneous Additions* \n\nAdded the following /-commands: \n\n- /camp: Causes your character to camp out. You must be sitting to use \n/camp.\n- /disband: Will disband you from your current group, or turn down an \ninvitation to join another group.\n- /invite: Will invite the target into a group, or accept an invitation \nif one is pending.\n- /attack: Will toggle the state of \"Auto-attack\". You may also add a \nparameter of \"on\" or \"off\" to explicitly set the state. \n\nIn addition: \n\n- CTRL-1 through CTRL-8 will cast the spell in the specified spell-\nslot.\n- \":\" (colon: Short for /emote) and \"'\" (apostrophe: Short for /say) \nwill now bring up the chat line in the same fashion as the /-key and \nENTER.\n- The \"R\" key (by default) takes you into reply-mode as always, \nbringing up a reply to the last person sending you a /tell. However, \nyou can now TAB and SHIFT-TAB to cycle through the last 10 people that \nhave sent you /tells. \n\n*Pauses in Socials* \n\nYou may now enter pauses in social batches with the /pause command. \n/pause takes an argument from 1 to 600, with the value being equal to \nthe number of tenths of seconds (i.e. /pause 100 will yield a 10 second \npause). \n\nFor example, a social consisting of: \n/sit off /cast 1 /pause 100 /sit on \n\n...would cause you to stand up, cast the spell in slot 1, wait 10 \nseconds after you've STARTED casting the spell, and sit down. \n\nFurthermore, you can also use the /pause command on the same line as \nanother social by separating the commands with a comma. Even though the \npause command is specified first, it is executed AFTER the command on \nthe same line. \n\nFor example: \n/sit off /pause 100,/cast 1 /sit on \n\n...would have the same effect as the example above. It is important to \nnote that the comma can only be used to separate a /pause command from \nanother, and MUST be specified first on the line. \n\n*Emote Codes* \n\nThe @ symbol has been replaced with a series of %-codes that expand \ninto various pieces of information, and now works in ALL chat channels \n(emote, say, shout, ooc, auction, group, guild). \n\nThe new %-codes are: \n%T - Returns the current target.\n%S - Returns the subjective gender-specific pronoun for the target (He, She, It).\n%O - Returns the objective gender-specific pronoun for the target (Him, Her, It).\n%P - Returns the posessive gender-specific pronoun for the target (His, Her, Its).\n%R - Returns the race of the target (only works on Player characters).\n\nFor example, if you have a target of \"a gnoll\", the following emote: \n/point say points at %T indicating that he is ready to kill %O. \n\n...Your character will execute the \"point\" animation with a text output \nof \"CharacterName points at a gnoll indicating that he is ready to kill \nit.\" \n\n- The EverQuest Team","content_hash":"a3b2b6244e3b141ca86575523be469d0ed6a7793714b65b1cc50d6997a9efd07","source_files":["patches-2000-2.txt","patches_1999-2008_combined.md","patches_1999-2010_combined.txt"],"source_titles":["September 28, 2000 7:00 am"],"source_url":null,"source_urls":[],"occurrence_count":3,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"559a30095d85241a5b6eedae58b897d9aef6c67bf67adb6b58ed6027db9fa81d","filename":"patches_1999-2008_combined.md","adapter":"markdown","source_offset":88566,"item_index":null,"heading":"September 28, 2000 7:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"markdown","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"5deb879ac61e7575ff282822d89be5d250a0bbb250f1b8bc4b063d154fbbb191","filename":"patches_1999-2010_combined.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":91923,"item_index":null,"heading":"September 28, 2000 7:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"b0270fef64251b7150ac4847b8b37052e60deeac19bc696f0f47fdfabaea940e","filename":"patches-2000-2.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":30247,"item_index":null,"heading":"September 28, 2000 7:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false}],"year_inferred":false,"sequence":1,"slug":"2000-09-28-1","id":"2000-09-28-1"},{"patch_date":"2000-09-19","effective_date":"2000-09-19","display_date":"September 19, 2000 7:00 am","title":"September 19, 2000 7:00 am","year":2000,"month":9,"kind":"live","era":"EverQuest Live","expansion":"The Ruins of Kunark","expansion_code":"the-ruins-of-kunark","categories":[{"slug":"classes","label":"Classes"},{"slug":"spells-aa","label":"Spells & AA"},{"slug":"items","label":"Items"},{"slug":"quests-events","label":"Quests & Events"},{"slug":"tradeskills","label":"Tradeskills"},{"slug":"ui","label":"UI"},{"slug":"servers","label":"Servers"},{"slug":"audio-graphics","label":"Audio & Graphics"}],"sections":["Level 1 Character Purge","Patch Day","New Epic Quests","Class Issues","Rangers","Monks","Cleric","Fungal Regrowth","Attack Speed Buffs","High-Level Dungeon Balancing","Low-Delay Weapons and Damage Bonus Changes","Server Selection Screen","Custom Emotes and AFK","For instance","Skill Gain","Trade Skills Enhanced"],"change_count":10,"word_count":1047,"summary":"Level 1 Character Purge* The Level 1 character purge announced several weeks ago will take place on Wednesday, September 27, 2000, at 7:00am PST (GMT-7).

The \nultimate reward for each quest boasts a custom model with unique \nparticle effects. We think that you will be pleased.\n\nGood luck to everyone on your quest.\n\n*Class Issues*\n\nRangers:\n\nLast week we completed in-depth testing of melee and defensive skills \nfor all melee-centric classes. In the course of these tests we \ndetermined that the ranger class was not performing to its intended \nlevel, and have made the following changes:\n\n- The \"Jolt\" spell has had its casting time reduced.\n- The Skillcap on Dodge and Parry has been increased.\n\nMonks:\n\nHigh-level monks can now carry increased weight without penalty. The \nadditional allowance is granted at levels 55 and 60.\n\nCleric:\n\nCelestial Elixir was failing due to multi-tick cure components that are \nincompatible with that configuration. We have therefore removed the \ncure components and increased the healing provided by this spell.\n\nAfter a great deal of consideration, we have concluded that the Mark of \nKarn spell is imbalanced and requires correction. This spell's current \nfunction makes melee classes without dual-wield far less desirable \nmembers of the group. As such, the spell has had its duration \ndecreased, its recast-time increased, and its \"heal per hit\" value \ndecreased. \n\n\n*Fungal Regrowth*\n\n\"Fungal Regrowth\" is now a self-only spell. It was being used as an \noffensive spell by virtue of its \"snare\" effect upon the target. \nFurthermore, we ruled out making it \"group only\" as with other spells \nthat have this issue, due to a class-balance concern. The spell was \nreducing the group's desire for classes capable of casting regenerative \nmagic.\n\n*Attack Speed Buffs*\n\nIn this patch we corrected a bug that would cause any \"Haste\" item \ncombined with any \"Haste\" spell to automatically yield maximum haste, \nregardless of the level of \"Haste\" granted by each individual \ncomponent. This fix increases the usefulness of better \"Haste\" \nequipment and spells. The downside to this is that those who usually \nhave both items and spells active will see a reduced attack-speed \nunless outfitted with the best equipment and spells.\n\n*High-Level Dungeon Balancing*\n\nVeehshan's Peak and Sebilis have received loot adjustments in order to \naddress disparities in risk and reward. For the most part, the quality \nof the \"common\" loot in Veeshan's Peak is at least as good as the \n\"rares\" from Sebilis.\n\n*Low-Delay Weapons and Damage Bonus Changes*\n\nIn accordance with our announcement several weeks ago, two low-delay \nweapons can now only be equipped in the off-hand. Included in this \nchange are the Mosscovered Twig and the Barbed Scale Whip. The delay on \nthese weapons and the associated damage bonus to weapons in the primary \nhand made these weapons much too powerful for their availability and \nthe risk associated with their acquisition.\n\nIn addition, two-handed weapons have had their damage-bonus modified. \nThe damage-bonus for low-delay two-handed weapons (27 or below) created \na problem similar to the weapons above and has been reduced. The \ndamage-bonus has not changed for normal-delay (28-39) two-handed \nweapons. The damage bonus for high-delay two-handed weapons (40+) has \nbeen increased.\n\n\n*Server Selection Screen*\n\nIt has come to our attention that new players often think that the \nhigh-population servers are better, based upon the logic that if \neveryone else is there, it must be a good server. However, in \nMassively-Multiplayer games, less populated servers are often \nconsidered superior for gameplay. Therefore we have marked servers that \nwould benefit from new characters as preferred servers, listing them in \n\"green\" in the server selection window. The preferred servers have \npopulations such that an influx of new people would benefit the server \nrather than cause overpopulation.\n\n\n*Custom Emotes and AFK*\n\nAnimations with custom emotes have been implemented. Current canned \nemotes such as /point allow a target other than the current target to \nbe specified. That will continue to work. So if you type \"/point \nBaobob\", the usual text will come up. However, you can add custom text \nto the emote, but you must specify the target as \"say\" as the target. \nFor instance: \n\n/point say points at a gnoll, indicating that he is ready to kill it. \n\n...your character will execute the /point animation, and the text \noutput will be: \"CharacterName points at a gnoll, indicating that he is \nready to kill it.\" \n\nFinally, you can now set a custom message for when you are /AFK. Type \n\"/AFK \" (without the brackets) to set your custom AFK message. For \ninstance, if you type \"/afk Grabbing a snack\", you will reply with \n\"Grabbing a snack\" when someone sends you a /tell.\n\n*Skill Gain*\n\nThe skill-gain rate of many skills is now further modified by character \nstats. This will allow those with natural affinities towards certain \nskills to improve at a greater rate.\n\n*Trade Skills Enhanced*\n\nMany of the trade skills in game have received massive enhancements, \nincluding dozens of new craftable items, new fishing and foraging \nitems, and other things to be discovered once in game. \n\nIn addition, trade-skill specialization has been implemented. Players \nwill be able to exceed 200 points of skill in ONE of the generally \navailable tradeskills. This includes: \n\n- Baking\n- Blacksmithing\n- Brewing\n- Jewelcraft\n- Tailoring\n- Fletching\n- Pottery \n\nOnce above 200 points in one of these skills, no other skill will be \nable to exceed 200. Specialization restrictions do not include class or \nrace-specific trade skills such as Alchemy, Make Poison, and Tinkering. \nPlayers with race or class-specific trade skills will be able to exceed \n200 points of skill in that skill, PLUS any generally available trade \nskill. \n\nThe enhancement of trade skills is an on-going project. Further \nenhancements will be made in the coming weeks.\n\n- The EverQuest Team","content_hash":"7fee1c96ca64044ac52175acd44c36a1aac5ec0174ef6fdad2e2a4728b8dc40e","source_files":["patches-2000-2.txt","patches_1999-2008_combined.md","patches_1999-2010_combined.txt"],"source_titles":["September 19, 2000 7:00 am"],"source_url":null,"source_urls":[],"occurrence_count":3,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"3226d1247d81f39e123e329cca4d5b4691b0c26019f84a25f83a3e6ac0316692","filename":"patches_1999-2008_combined.md","adapter":"markdown","source_offset":81901,"item_index":null,"heading":"September 19, 2000 7:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"markdown","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"31d838d01f8b85634e73bc1efd2e3a7717f10f564fb0218ce490bc257e2f7f08","filename":"patches_1999-2010_combined.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":85193,"item_index":null,"heading":"September 19, 2000 7:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"9a8ba53bc60b711c535d389b3b84ddc55e3242f0f378fdf7514e635260a4cf11","filename":"patches-2000-2.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":23517,"item_index":null,"heading":"September 19, 2000 7:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false}],"year_inferred":false,"sequence":1,"slug":"2000-09-19-1","id":"2000-09-19-1"},{"patch_date":"2000-09-12","effective_date":"2000-09-12","display_date":"September 12, 2000 3:00 pm","title":"September 12, 2000 3:00 pm","year":2000,"month":9,"kind":"live","era":"EverQuest Live","expansion":"The Ruins of Kunark","expansion_code":"the-ruins-of-kunark","categories":[{"slug":"servers","label":"Servers"}],"sections":["Guild Maintenance"],"change_count":1,"word_count":144,"summary":"Guild Maintenance* We are in the process of preparing to do maintenance on the guild database.

Please note that this ability is subject to the range to the \ntarget.\n- EverQuest will now write the original default colors when creating \nthe EQCLIENT.INI file, rather than the new colors that were put in a \nfew weeks ago.\n- The @-character can be used in emotes to indicate a target. For \ninstance, if you target \"a gnoll\" and type \"/emote laughs cruelly at \n@\", the output will be, \"Playername laughs cruelly at a gnoll\".\n- People with the /LFG (Looking for Group) flag set will now have their \nover-head name prefixed with an asterisk. Remember that you can search \nfor people looking for a group by using the \"/who\" and \"/who all\" \ncommands. Typing \"/who all ranger 40 50 lfg\" will return a list of all \nrangers between 40 and 50 that are looking for a group.\n- The \"Sense\" series (Undead, Animal, and Summoned) will no longer \npoint you towards people's pets.\n\n*Note on Voice Recognition*\n\nLast week we implemented voice recognition technology in EverQuest. To \nuse this new feature, please refer to the EQROKManualSupplement.doc \nfile in your EverQuest directory. Please note that you must already \nhave a voice recognition engine that is compliant with the Microsoft \nSpeech API (SAPI), version 4.0. The voice recognition technology was \ntested with Dragon NaturallySpeaking(r) v4.0. Check with the developer \nof your software to find out if it is SAPI 4.0 compliant.\n\n\n- The EverQuest Team","content_hash":"0fe011306e2ee3037cf7e1f76467a0b863dd4f732c167f76f9b30228c4679ff0","source_files":["patches-2000-2.txt","patches_1999-2008_combined.md","patches_1999-2010_combined.txt"],"source_titles":["August 30, 2000 8:00 am"],"source_url":null,"source_urls":[],"occurrence_count":3,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"57d814ea205cf2fdc4462ecfb5e66f6d609a51845358b8e3b7fe4f31f8105d6a","filename":"patches_1999-2008_combined.md","adapter":"markdown","source_offset":78665,"item_index":null,"heading":"August 30, 2000 8:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"markdown","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"61d239666e88117b9b67a235b02a4b0cb1f6f25adaf2783876a2ba072dfa4050","filename":"patches_1999-2010_combined.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":81761,"item_index":null,"heading":"August 30, 2000 8:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"3094cc39ddb5ea920591056cf9505a9a274e1d5f6a41f8951354cb903cded426","filename":"patches-2000-2.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":20085,"item_index":null,"heading":"August 30, 2000 8:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false}],"year_inferred":false,"sequence":1,"slug":"2000-08-30-1","id":"2000-08-30-1"},{"patch_date":"2000-08-23","effective_date":"2000-08-23","display_date":"August 23, 2000 7:00 am","title":"August 23, 2000 7:00 am","year":2000,"month":8,"kind":"live","era":"EverQuest Live","expansion":"The Ruins of Kunark","expansion_code":"the-ruins-of-kunark","categories":[{"slug":"spells-aa","label":"Spells & AA"},{"slug":"items","label":"Items"},{"slug":"ui","label":"UI"}],"sections":["Updated EQCLIENT.INI Documentation","Here is a list of valid settings"],"change_count":2,"word_count":361,"summary":"Corrected a bug that caused items that ran out of charges to \"disappear\" when the last charge was used.

This \nmeans that if a person or NPC says something that is more than one line \nlong, all subsequent lines will be indented a few spaces. This should \nmake it a lot easier to pick out separate messages.\n- The spells \"United Resolve\" and \"Heroic Bond\" had their levels \ntransposed accidentally. Rather than putting them back as intended, \nUnited Resolve has been changed to Heroic Bond, which means you might \nhave two copies of that spell in your spellbook. Feel free to move one \nto the back. Clerics get a new group spell at 58 to compensate.\n- The Wurmslayer is now a one-handed slashing weapon.\n- The /help command will now list all /-commands available to you.\n- Rangers, Paladins, and SKs now have mana equivalent to that of a pure \ncaster with the same stats. This will give those hybrids a good deal \nmore mana, regardless of their stats. \n- NORENT items, items that disappear when you log out, will now show a \n\"NORENT\" tag when inspecting the item.\n- Most summoned items now have the word \"summoned\" in their name.\n\n*Changes/Fixes*\n\n- Small Studded Tunic recipe now works\n- Scaler recipe now works\n- High Elves can now use the Moss Covered Twig and Branch\n- Iksar can now wear the Crescent headband.\n- The Shintl Lowbrew quest will now work\n- The Rusty Rapier now looks like a rapier.\n- Elven Wine can now be brewed\n- Some pelt-dropping animals were always dropping ruined pelts, rather \nthan pelts of quality. This has been repaired.\n- The Guild-invite toggle in display options will now work.\n- The faction problems with the Charasis Key Quest have been resolved.\n- Many pathing errors have been repaired.\n- Repaired a bug that caused some anomalies after being charmed or \nfeared.\n- Repaired a bug that kept the Unswerving Hammer of Faith and Flaming \nSword of Xuzl from disappearing.\n\n*Dragons?*\n\nRumor has it that some new dragons have been spotted in Kunark. It \nshould be noted however that the dragons can be engaged from much \nfurther away than is intended. Rather than hold off implementing these \ndragons for another week, we've decided to implement them now and fix \nthe problem in the next patch. Enjoy :)\n\n*New Command For Tracking*\n\nNew option for those with tracking: /trackplayers. The command will \nwork for all players with the tracking skill. The command has two \nsettings:\n\n- ON: Default setting, same as it is now. Players will show up in the \ntracking window. \n- OFF: Players will not show up in the tracking window.\n\n*Client Customizations*\n\nUpon starting EverQuest, a new file (EQCLIENT.INI) will be created in \nyour EverQuest directory. This file contains customizable settings for:\n\n- Colors for text messages in the in-game chat window \n- Default screen viewing mode \n- Default travel speed (run or walk)\n\nThe documentation will be included in the online manual in your \nEverQuest directory once the design is finalized over the next several \nweeks, but the working document is posted below. We felt that people \nwould rather have access to the customizations right away while we're \nin the process of building them. \n\nModifying this file is optional.\n\n*EQCLIENT.INI documentation*\n\nThe [TextColors] section contains entries for various text colors in \nthe client. All colors are to be set with Red, Green, and Blue values, \nin decimal. Valid settings for each color range between 0 and 255. \n\"Black\" (0 red, 0 green, and 0 blue) will be white in overlay mode, and \nblack in normal mode.\n\nHere is a list of user colors to use as a guide when editing the file: \n\n1 - Say \n2 - Tell \n3 - Group \n4 - Guild \n5 - OOC \n6 - Auction \n7 - Shout \n8 - Emote \n9 - Spells (meming, scribing, casting, etc.) \n10 - You hit other \n11 - Other hits you \n12 - You miss other \n13 - Other misses you \n14 - Some broadcasts (duels) \n15 - Skills (ups, non-combat use, etc.) \n18 - Default text and stuff you type \n20 - Merchant Offer Price \n21 - Merchant Buy/Sell \n22 - Your death message \n23 - Others death message \n24 - Other damage other \n25 - Other miss other \n26 - /who command\n\nThe [Defaults] section contains some default setting for the client. \nHere is a list of valid settings: \n\nRunMode - TRUE for run, FALSE for walk. \nScreenMode - NORMAL for the default window view, FULL for the full view \nwith overlays\n\n- The EverQuest Team","content_hash":"2d2e10937eecded5cefbf3c7c74c5d4abb4aee212523a078c9271b9261bdace4","source_files":["patches-2000-2.txt","patches_1999-2008_combined.md","patches_1999-2010_combined.txt"],"source_titles":["August 9th, 7:00am"],"source_url":null,"source_urls":[],"occurrence_count":3,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"ce3c583d17a06e71795d3cc5b3bf79eaddf85c7b6539bac02fa332584c50372c","filename":"patches_1999-2008_combined.md","adapter":"markdown","source_offset":71019,"item_index":null,"heading":"August 9th, 7:00am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"markdown","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":true},{"occurrence_id":"6c0d9d05511130d05cf174e28a8501a7625d981f029e31feaaf881c6e32e861f","filename":"patches_1999-2010_combined.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":73964,"item_index":null,"heading":"August 9th, 7:00am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":true},{"occurrence_id":"5dd10b2030a5bcf2bd4a2702daa4ce21acc741ae170e885bce32885dfbb9db8c","filename":"patches-2000-2.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":12288,"item_index":null,"heading":"August 9th, 7:00am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":true}],"year_inferred":true,"sequence":2,"slug":"2000-08-09-2","id":"2000-08-09-2"},{"patch_date":"2000-08-09","effective_date":"2000-08-09","display_date":"August 9, 2000","title":"August 9, 2000","year":2000,"month":8,"kind":"live","era":"EverQuest Live","expansion":"The Ruins of Kunark","expansion_code":"the-ruins-of-kunark","categories":[{"slug":"servers","label":"Servers"}],"sections":["Character Purge"],"change_count":1,"word_count":87,"summary":"Character Purge*** Time has come to do some cleanup on character data across the servers.

In addition, the range \nfor canned emotes has been increased.\n- /who all \"guildname\" should now work for players who have /roleplay \nturned on.\n- Preferences for the mouselook will be saved in your options file. \nThose who turn mouselook off each time when starting EQ will only have \nto do it once more.\n- The \"Chat Filter\" tab in \"Options\" now has an option to filter \nmessages caused by damage shields hitting others.\n\n*Fast Drop*\n\nOur most exciting change today is an option that allows players to \navoid accidentally dropping items on the ground. The new client allows \nplayers to set \"Item Dropping\" preferences on the \"General\" options \ntab. The three options that can be set are:\n\n- FAST DROP: Items are dropped without confirmation.\n- CONFIRM: A confirmation box will be displayed whenever you try to \ndrop an item.\n- NEVER: You are not allowed to drop items on the ground. \n\nAlternatively, you can also set these options using the /fastdrop \ncommand. The arguments are:\n\n- ON: Same as option \"Fast Drop\" on the General Tab.\n- OFF: Same as option \"Confirm\" on the General Tab.\n- NEVER: Same as above.\n\nPlease note that whatever your setting, coin will always be dropped \nwithout confirmation. Additionally, the FastDrop option only applies to \nitems being dropped upon the ground. Handing items to NPCs will still \nwork regardless of your FastDrop setting.\n\nIt is highly recommended that you use option \"CONFIRM\", as GMs will not \nreimburse any items that are accidentally dropped.\n\n- The EverQuest Team","content_hash":"8ec3bd0f7b70286f72e2bceeeec5d9c3cc0280b61caddb5f86de4347b6fbd74e","source_files":["patches-2000-2.txt","patches_1999-2008_combined.md","patches_1999-2010_combined.txt"],"source_titles":["August 1, 2000"],"source_url":null,"source_urls":[],"occurrence_count":3,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"c499de5d4f449f01460e7e16546a19dad380fa53fa0a6c4d17287c931d6f02e3","filename":"patches_1999-2008_combined.md","adapter":"markdown","source_offset":68779,"item_index":null,"heading":"August 1, 2000","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"markdown","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"635730dd433851f1989292e85a340caf1d95fda68173754d6ee561aee97b3be0","filename":"patches_1999-2010_combined.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":71626,"item_index":null,"heading":"August 1, 2000","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"9d3a37864027d7963a4fb8c3b7dcfe4c8702f7cc0eade471bccab43e24864338","filename":"patches-2000-2.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":9950,"item_index":null,"heading":"August 1, 2000","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false}],"year_inferred":false,"sequence":1,"slug":"2000-08-01-1","id":"2000-08-01-1"},{"patch_date":"2000-07-26","effective_date":"2000-07-26","display_date":"July 26, 2000 12:00 pm","title":"July 26, 2000 12:00 pm","year":2000,"month":7,"kind":"live","era":"EverQuest Live","expansion":"The Ruins of Kunark","expansion_code":"the-ruins-of-kunark","categories":[{"slug":"ui","label":"UI"},{"slug":"servers","label":"Servers"}],"sections":["Chat and Login"],"change_count":7,"word_count":133,"summary":"Chat and Login* Today's patch contains some new features for the EverQuest chat and login servers.

These restrictions allowed us to \nenhance archery without creating a new kiting problem.\n- Corrected a bug that had rangers doing less melee damage than was \nintended except when fighting an NPC who was also a ranger.\n- Pets, both PC and NPC, will no longer cast \"Gate\".\n- A large rat says, \"Hit by non-melee for XXX damage\", is history. The \nnew message given probably isn't the source of never-ending humor that \nthe old one was.\n- Updated pathing information in Innothule Swamp.\n- Corrected many, many, MANY spelling and grammar errors in the world. \n- Fixed a large number of spell gems and spellbook icons. Take care to \ntake a look at your spell lineup to familiarize yourself with the new \ngems/icons.\n\n*Poison*\n\n- Implemented the high level Rogue poisons (level 51+).\n- Increased Rogue \"Make Poison\" skill cap.\n- Substantially reduced chance to fail \"Apply Poison\".\n- Rogues will now automatically sit when right-clicking on a poison.\n- Failure to make a poison will now return the vial.\n\n*General Crafts*\n\n- The Ant's Potion may now be used anywhere.\n- The small and large reinforced wristband may now be crafted.\n- The small and medium studded shoulderpads, cloak, and belt may now be \ncrafted.\n- The medium reinforced mask may now be crafted.\n- Sealed Poison Vials can now be crafted.\n- The Thermal Cloak may now be tinkered.\n- The \"This item is trivial...\" message in craft skills has been \nreplaced with \"You can no longer advance in skill from making this \nitem\". \n\n*Items*\n\n- The Elven Paladin Newbie Tunic may now be worn by Half Elf paladins.\n- The Murky Vial will now properly affect the target instead of the \nplayer.\n- Increased stats on many Plane of Sky items.\n- There was evidently more than one \"Fine Steel Dagger\" running around \nin the world. Some of them have been renamed \"Serpant's Tooth\".\n- The effect on the Staff of Undead Legions has been changed to \nsomething a bit more useful.\n- The Deepwater Helm now has a significant casting time. The function \nof its spell allowed a mana-free heal even though it was intended to be \na buff.\n\n\n*/consent*\n\nSome people were spamming others with /consent, causing them to \ndisconnect. As a result, /consent can now only be done once every two \nseconds. Should you be harassed via this tool, please use /report. \nAlso, please take care to avoid accidentally /consenting someone, as it \nwill be two seconds before you can undo it.\n\n*Cazic-Thule and the Feerrott*\n\nThere has been a significant change to the factions in the Feerrott and \nCazic-Thule. Take care not to get killed by NPCs that previously left \nyou alone. The significant upside to this change is that the \"Cazic \nGate/Portal\" can be made much safer in nature for those who work on \ntheir faction.\n\n*Regen Effects*\n\nThis week we corrected a bug that caused regen-type spells (e.g. \nRegeneration, Chloroplast, Regrowth, etc.) to overwrite DOT spells. As \na result of this fix, players can no longer accept a regeneration spell \nwhile under the effect of a DOT. However, if the regen spell is already \nin place, the DOT will stack, but not replace the regen spell. This \nwill allow users of beneficial DOTs, such as Call of Bones, to continue \nusing their DOT while under the affect of regen.\n\n*Keyed Dungeons*\n\nThe key for Charasis (Howling Stones) is now NODROP per the patch \nmessage from a couple of weeks ago. Furthermore, when your character \ndies, keys for Charasis, Sebilis, and Veeshan's Peak, will no longer \nremain with your corpse, but will instead return with your character to \nits bind point. We made this change to reduce the difficulty and \ncorpse-loss potential of these zones, and eliminate the need to do the \nkey quests multiple times.\n\n*Barbed Scale Whip*\n\nIn the last item patch, this item was changed from its original stats \nto something inferior, as the game designer was not aware that it was \nalready in-game. It has been changed back to its original stats.\n\n*Hiding Corpses*\n\nA new command has been implemented in the EverQuest client. This \ncommand (/hidecorpses) allows players to suppress the display of player \nand NPC corpses on the screen. This can be very useful once you've \nentered a zone with a large number of corpes, causing framerate to \ndecay. It will be particularly useful in the planes.

The Hole is a complementary addition \nto EverQuest, available to all subscribers regardless of their Kunark \nstatus. The files necessary to enter The Hole are available via the \n\"Optional Patch\" button at the bottom of the patch program interface. \nThe files are quite large (about 9MB total), so if the download is \ngoing slowly, you may want to postpone downloading the files until \nlater.\n\nAs mentioned above, The Hole is a high-level dungeon, designed to \nsupport characters starting at about level 40. It should be regarded as \nextremely dangerous. As a note, jumping in The Hole from Paineel is NO \nLONGER A SHORTCUT TO TOXXULIA FOREST. The GMs will not recover corpses \nfor people who fall, or jump, or attempt to levitate into The Hole. \n\n*Vallon Zek is now Coin-Only*\n\nAs we announced earlier this week, due to the number of people \nspecifying interest in \"coin-only\" loot on Vallon Zek, versus those \nwishing to retain item- loot, we have implemented \"coin-only\" looting \nrules for PvP combat on Vallon Zek.\n\n*Resurrection*\n\nPreviously, players had to be resurrected within two hours after death \nin order to receive any experience back as part of the resurrection. \nDue to the increased size and difficulty associated with Kunark zones, \nwe've raised this limit from two hours to three. This should assist \nplayers and make it easier for them to obtain an experience-returning \nresurrection within the time limit.\n\n*Warping*\n\nWe put in some code that should help decrease the \"ghosting\" (NPCs \nappearing to be some place they aren't) being reported in some of the \nlarger Kunark zones. Please let us know how this goes.\n\n*Locked Doors*\n\nWe noticed few weeks ago that it is common practice to use NPCs to open \nlocked doors rather than by using the services of someone that is able \nto pick locks. In order to protect and increase the value of the \nabilities of the lock-picking classes, NPCs have gained the ability to \nwalk through locked doors without opening them. \n\n*Vox and Nagafen*\n\nOver the past couple of weeks, we've received more and more reports of \nthese dragons being bested by smaller and smaller groups of higher-\nlevel (high 50s) adventurers. As we've always felt that Dragons should \nbe special encounters that require a large number of people, we were \nleft with some choices.\n\nOne choice available to us was to increase the power of the dragons to \na level where the level 60 folks would find them challenging. This \nwould have the disadvantage of forever placing them out-of-reach for \nthose who did not buy Kunark, and place them further out-of-reach for \nthose who did, but are just now approaching the levels where they could \ngo on Dragon raids. Another possible solution was to make the dragons \nflee (depop) when engaged by a more powerful group of people. This \nwould have the undesired effect of allowing some people to deny others \nthe experience of fighting a dragon.\n\nInstead of raising the bar as mentioned above, we've instead decided \nthat dragons, or at least these two dragons, should have the magical \nability to pick their own fights. Players of level 53 or above will now \nencounter some difficulty when attempting to assist in combat with \nthese dragons. This should help 40s and low 50-level characters with \ntheir chances to encounter a dragon without worry of getting forced out \nby much higher level players. In addition, it also has the added effect \nof creating a natural progression from the younger dragons of Antonica \nto the elder and more formidable dragons of Kunark.\n\n\n-The EverQuest Team","content_hash":"fe5be2876163220fb956e23742d78ffad6b7688a6300fba9a5aa6ea676edf9c5","source_files":["patches-2000-1.txt","patches_1999-2008_combined.md","patches_1999-2010_combined.txt"],"source_titles":["June 22, 2000 9:00 am"],"source_url":null,"source_urls":[],"occurrence_count":3,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"67604eb5abeee81fe29199a25115599bc7998b700805fb64e72134ba72b8b095","filename":"patches_1999-2008_combined.md","adapter":"markdown","source_offset":52734,"item_index":null,"heading":"June 22, 2000 9:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"markdown","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"1750ec51f3dc99123e6c9e5995c0d5f66ea1e0fb1c660a85e379985f6de98016","filename":"patches_1999-2010_combined.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":55023,"item_index":null,"heading":"June 22, 2000 9:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"824bc18d7401c9308c15d810b0446cc6aaa76a5aa27be92e49106235d33374c6","filename":"patches-2000-1.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":51945,"item_index":null,"heading":"June 22, 2000 9:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false}],"year_inferred":false,"sequence":1,"slug":"2000-06-22-1","id":"2000-06-22-1"},{"patch_date":"2000-06-15","effective_date":"2000-06-15","display_date":"June 15, 2000 8:00 am","title":"June 15, 2000 8:00 am","year":2000,"month":6,"kind":"live","era":"EverQuest Live","expansion":"The Ruins of Kunark","expansion_code":"the-ruins-of-kunark","categories":[{"slug":"spells-aa","label":"Spells & AA"},{"slug":"items","label":"Items"},{"slug":"quests-events","label":"Quests & Events"},{"slug":"servers","label":"Servers"}],"sections":["Patch Day","changes are in regards to quests","A few items have also been changed this week","Casting Times on Staff and Rod","Gunthak Harpoon","Chat / Login Process"],"change_count":9,"word_count":428,"summary":"Patch Day* Hello everyone, Over the past few weeks, a portion of the EQ team has been working on The Hole, in preparation of its release in the near future.

Though /ignore will allow you to filter out text\nmessages caused by people on your /ignore list, it will not allow you \nto filter out spell-effect messages for spells cast upon you.\n\nThe short casting time should prevent the problems associated with the\ntargetable and activatable effect on these weapons, however you will\nhave to stand still to use them now.\n\n*Gunthak Harpoon*\n\nIn the last item patch, we made the mistake of making this weapon\n\"rentable\", meaning that it does not disappear upon logoff. Basically,\none of our game designers heard that the weapon was NORENT, concluded\nthat it must be a bug, and took the initiative to fix it.\nUnfortunately, the stats on this weapon, despite its disadvantages of\nweight and its non-magical composition, make it much too powerful for\nits location and difficulty in obtaining it.\n\nFor these reasons, the weapon is once again NORENT, and will disappear\nthe next time that you log out. This is a retroactive change and will\naffect weapons already in possession. We do apologize to those who\nacquired it within the last week expecting that it would be a permanent\nweapon.\n\n*Chat / Login Process*\n\nThe Chat and Login server components are now completely separate,\nmeaning that players will no longer have difficulty logging in due to \nan excess of people in the chat server.\n\n\n- The EverQuest Team","content_hash":"27e4020e1ab72c6816ea909add5a3b2edb21c418452188b23001fb1f5f7cf267","source_files":["patches-2000-1.txt","patches_1999-2008_combined.md","patches_1999-2010_combined.txt"],"source_titles":["June 15, 2000 8:00 am"],"source_url":null,"source_urls":[],"occurrence_count":3,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"9ddaa3beb80d9cef89505dee78f4b2a07bf4ea5a3dcd7e16cc864c041fb2c03e","filename":"patches_1999-2008_combined.md","adapter":"markdown","source_offset":50197,"item_index":null,"heading":"June 15, 2000 8:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"markdown","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"81b63fe9b154b694c62940bc91e70ce7cb652906360e780341145741e6906900","filename":"patches_1999-2010_combined.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":52388,"item_index":null,"heading":"June 15, 2000 8:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"9590ad9c0e2dd32c21d1dee01d4d44992493cca1f7a40a092419e10b63cd01c1","filename":"patches-2000-1.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":49310,"item_index":null,"heading":"June 15, 2000 8:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false}],"year_inferred":false,"sequence":1,"slug":"2000-06-15-1","id":"2000-06-15-1"},{"patch_date":"2000-06-06","effective_date":"2000-06-06","display_date":"June 6, 2000 8:00 am","title":"June 6, 2000 8:00 am","year":2000,"month":6,"kind":"live","era":"EverQuest Live","expansion":"The Ruins of Kunark","expansion_code":"the-ruins-of-kunark","categories":[{"slug":"classes","label":"Classes"},{"slug":"spells-aa","label":"Spells & AA"},{"slug":"items","label":"Items"},{"slug":"zones-npcs","label":"Zones & NPCs"},{"slug":"quests-events","label":"Quests & Events"},{"slug":"ui","label":"UI"},{"slug":"pvp","label":"PvP"},{"slug":"servers","label":"Servers"},{"slug":"expansions","label":"Expansions"}],"sections":["Patch Day","data on the Test Server","General","Items","PvP Teams Servers (VZ/TZ) and Illusions","Risk and Reward","PvP Teams (VZ/TZ) Character Transfers","Updates Not Included in This Patch Message"],"change_count":17,"word_count":852,"summary":"Patch Day* Greetings!

The majority of these issues should no longer occur.\n- Corrected outstanding issues with several quests, including the Brain \nBite, Shackle of Rock, and the Barnal Flamehands quest.\n- Increased treasure in many Kunark zones including The Emerald Jungle, \nSebilis, and the Frontier Mountains.\n- Upon review we've increased the drop-rate of level 51+ spells in \nKunark. They should be more plentiful now. \n- Updated pathing information in many zones, making it easier for pets \nand other NPCs to get around the zones.\n\n*Items*\n\n- A problem with the spell effect for the Luminary Two-Handed Sword. \nCurrent owners of this weapon will need to contact a GM to trade their \nsword out for a working one.\n- The Gunthak Harpoon is now rentable. It will remain in your \npossession when you leave the game.\n- A couple pieces of Blood Ember armor have been reduced in weight.\n- Reduced the weight on several Monk weapons found in Kunark.\n\n*PvP Teams Servers (VZ/TZ) and Illusions*\n\nDue to an outstanding bug that allowed a player to permanently \nmesmerize or stun opposing team members when coupled with an illusion, \nillusions will now automatically cancel when the person wearing the \nillusion casts an offensive spell upon any player-character. Players \nshould keep this in mind before attacking with spells in an area where \ntheir faction standing is less than desirable. \n\nIllusions are defined as any spell that makes a character look \ndifferent than they actually are. This includes all racial illusions, \nas well as other illusions such as Treeform, Wolfform, and the Call of \nBones series. \n\n*Risk and Reward*\n\nThe concept of risk and reward is very important to the game of \nEverQuest. Ideally, situations that provide a greater reward should \nalso provide substantial risk. Over the past several weeks, we've been \nidentifying areas in game where risk and reward are at a disparity, and \nmaking necessary adjustments. \n\nIn most cases, those adjustments are in favor of increasing the reward \nfor a specific action. For example, we recently increased the \nexperience awarded in many Kunark zones to offset the sometimes-\nconsiderable risk associated with adventuring there. We also do this \nquite frequently by increasing the reward associated with a quest by \nenhancing the item, as we did last week with the Burning Rapier quest. \n\nHowever, in some cases there are instances where reward is far in \nexcess of the risk involved, and we will be correcting these issues \nlike those above as we come across them. For example, there are many \ncases where a solitary and stationary outdoor creature has a \"fast \nspawn\", yielding the reward of fast experience-gain without the \ncommensurate risk. \n\nThough it is not our policy to announce changes to individual NPCs, we \ndid want to let you know that you will see risk/reward disparities \ncorrected over the next several weeks.\n\n*PvP Teams (VZ/TZ) Character Transfers*\n\nAs many people playing upon the PvP-Teams servers are aware, Vallon Zek \nand Tallon Zek have different rules regarding looting rights from PvP \ncombat. Vallon Zek allows the victor to loot all coin plus one item \nfrom the fallen, whereas Tallon Zek allows only coin-loot with no right to loot items.\n\nDue to the fact that the looting rules were changed on Tallon Zek post-\nproduction, we've decided to allow characters on both servers a one-\ntime character-move. Registration for the move will open at 6:00pm PDT \non Friday, June 9th, 2000, on both servers, and will be open through \n12:00pm PDT on Monday, June 12th, 2000. You can register for the move \nby executing the \"/movelog yes\" command during the registration window. \nThere is no limit to the number of people that we will allow to move \nbetween Tallon and Vallon Zek, so there is no reason to rush to enter \nthe command.\n\nPlease remember that once you register for the move, your decision can \nnot be rescinded. The actual character-move will take place sometime \nnext week, at a time to be announced later. Please keep in mind that \ncorpses are not moved in a character-move, so we'd recommend against \nleaving unclaimed corpses around after Monday of next week if you've \nasked to be moved. \n\nQuestions about the move process will be addressed in the Gameplay \nMessage Forum available via www.everquest.com.\n\n\n- The EverQuest Team\n\nUpdates Not Included in This Patch Message:\n\n* Banshee Aura has had its duration increased.\n* Scale of Wolf and Spirit of Scale will no longer be canceled by being \nthe target of a melee attack. Ranged attacks and spells will still \ncancel the spell.\n* Shaman can now cast Charm Animal\n* Some enchanter and shaman spells have had their casting times/mana \ncosts altered.\n* Augment, Glamour of Kintaz, Rapture, and Clarity II have had their \nmana cost lowered.\n* Root spells that cause damage (Druid roots, Hungry Earth) now work \nproperly.","content_hash":"882f99c85ab929f6106a3459f7a8fa51d61fb16791f97ea1f0f14a51ee544991","source_files":["patches-2000-1.txt","patches_1999-2008_combined.md","patches_1999-2010_combined.txt"],"source_titles":["June 6, 2000 8:00 am"],"source_url":null,"source_urls":[],"occurrence_count":3,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"30937437ac02b33b2c6e614f4d2611602eb58fe00a1b5f3f1b267926bde1dd4d","filename":"patches_1999-2008_combined.md","adapter":"markdown","source_offset":44994,"item_index":null,"heading":"June 6, 2000 8:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"markdown","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"6c3428707439dd3677bcab4a3b1484e51fac89b1d40161006e05326348b8df7d","filename":"patches_1999-2010_combined.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":47088,"item_index":null,"heading":"June 6, 2000 8:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"10a41c21084d3aae5a5c3753ee91f88a7bd047656e6b4d49de76a40f627cd66c","filename":"patches-2000-1.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":44010,"item_index":null,"heading":"June 6, 2000 8:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false}],"year_inferred":false,"sequence":1,"slug":"2000-06-06-1","id":"2000-06-06-1"},{"patch_date":"2000-05-25","effective_date":"2000-05-25","display_date":"May 25, 2000 8:00 am","title":"May 25, 2000 8:00 am","year":2000,"month":5,"kind":"live","era":"EverQuest Live","expansion":"The Ruins of Kunark","expansion_code":"the-ruins-of-kunark","categories":[{"slug":"bug-fixes","label":"Bug Fixes"},{"slug":"classes","label":"Classes"},{"slug":"spells-aa","label":"Spells & AA"},{"slug":"items","label":"Items"},{"slug":"zones-npcs","label":"Zones & NPCs"},{"slug":"quests-events","label":"Quests & Events"},{"slug":"tradeskills","label":"Tradeskills"},{"slug":"servers","label":"Servers"},{"slug":"audio-graphics","label":"Audio & Graphics"},{"slug":"expansions","label":"Expansions"}],"sections":["Patch Day","servers","Spells/Songs","Items","General Changes"],"change_count":12,"word_count":567,"summary":"Patch Day* Greetings all!

The following changes have been implemented on the Live \nservers:\n\n*Spells/Songs*\n\n- Voltaic Draught, a high level wizard direct damage spell was \nimproperly saving versus resistance to cold. It now appropriately saves \nversus magic.\n- The higher level bard song by Brusco was improperly healing the \ntarget instead of damaging it. This has been corrected.\n\n*Items*\n\nThe Shadowknight class-specific quest armor, Darkforge armor, has had \nits weight decreased substantially.\n\nThe Runed Fighter's Staff, previously useable by Monks and Warriors, \nhas been restricted to Monks only. The statistics on this staff are \nmuch more powerful than normally allowed for warriors. This change is \nretroactive and will be reflected on items currently in inventory. \nThough we strive to avoid negatively adjusting items after they have \nbeen earned, this item presented a balance issue, making the change \nnecessary. We apologize to warriors that currently own this weapon.\n\nA data error with the Symphonic Saber, causing it to report \"Item out \nof charges\", has been corrected. Due to the dynamics of this particular \nissue, current owners will need to contact a GM to trade this item out \nfor a new, properly working version of the item.\n\nThe Burning Rapier (rogue weapon) has been enhanced. In addition to an \nincrease in statistics, it received a stronger spell effect. The \nlightsource effect on the weapon has been removed due to an aesthetic \nrogue desire to be \"sneaky\" :)\n\nThe effect on the Hangman's Noose will now work properly.\n\n*General Changes*\n\n- Some NPCs in Dalnir were casting spells much too powerful for their \nlevel. They have been adjusted.\n- Pathing information has been updated in Highkeep. NPCs and pets \nshould have a much easier time of navigating the zone.\n- Some Quest-NPCs were not spawning properly in Rathe Mountains. These \nissues have been corrected.\n- A handful of problems reported with research practice via the \nConcordance of Research have been corrected. All practice-rune recipes \nshould now work correctly.\n- Gorilla's in Burning Wood now have a new texture set that properly \nreflects their undead status.\n- Fishing should now work properly in Kunark zones.\n- /yell now reports the proper direction to people hearing the yell.\n- Corrected a bug that gave some races the impression that they were \nallowed to start their character in Cabalis. They were never actually \nallowed to create the character there, however the indication that they \ncould has been fixed.\n- Corrected sound issues that were causing some crashes to the desktop \nin certain cases.\n\nWe are in the process of patching music files (*.XMI) for zones in \nwhich music does not currently work. There are 55 small files (around \n2K each) that will be patched over the next couple of days to enable \nmusic in all of the affected zones. \n\nThe zone of Timorous Deep has been tuned and itemized. Certain aspects \nof the changes have made certain areas of the zone more dangerous, but \nthe reward should be well worth the risk. Feel free to visit this zone \nand search out its treasures at your leisure. Note: These changes went \nin on Monday.\n\nUpon investigation, we discovered a deficiency with the amount of \nexperience being rewarded in many Kunark zones (mostly dungeons). The \naffected zones have been updated, and adventurers should notice the \ngreater experience reward in return for the increased risk and \nchallenge associated with these zones.\n\n- The EverQuest Team","content_hash":"418d38d830a4896d8ec2a15999c6ee04480a132f2081efc0f7bfb7394a0eaa02","source_files":["patches-2000-1.txt","patches_1999-2008_combined.md","patches_1999-2010_combined.txt"],"source_titles":["May 25, 2000 8:00 am"],"source_url":null,"source_urls":[],"occurrence_count":3,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"1225721cba70fc0df8ccf58089ad69ea4b3c0a6dbefb48679dc3cb2080439d10","filename":"patches_1999-2008_combined.md","adapter":"markdown","source_offset":41440,"item_index":null,"heading":"May 25, 2000 8:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"markdown","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"3fae4f1997eb9dc7e5c7375b95b02f138a779e3c74f701c9f6a5b5b6efd02155","filename":"patches_1999-2010_combined.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":43437,"item_index":null,"heading":"May 25, 2000 8:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"694ac592b15edb5bd5314002878abf09d1ba1c5ea1096ff892b9284cdb6ef8ea","filename":"patches-2000-1.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":40359,"item_index":null,"heading":"May 25, 2000 8:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false}],"year_inferred":false,"sequence":1,"slug":"2000-05-25-1","id":"2000-05-25-1"},{"patch_date":"2000-05-16","effective_date":"2000-05-16","display_date":"May 16, 2000 10:00 am","title":"May 16, 2000 10:00 am","year":2000,"month":5,"kind":"live","era":"EverQuest Live","expansion":"The Ruins of Kunark","expansion_code":"the-ruins-of-kunark","categories":[{"slug":"bug-fixes","label":"Bug Fixes"},{"slug":"spells-aa","label":"Spells & AA"},{"slug":"items","label":"Items"},{"slug":"zones-npcs","label":"Zones & NPCs"},{"slug":"quests-events","label":"Quests & Events"},{"slug":"audio-graphics","label":"Audio & Graphics"},{"slug":"expansions","label":"Expansions"}],"sections":["Patch Day","General Changes","Item Updates"],"change_count":18,"word_count":473,"summary":"Patch Day*** General Changes* Sounds have been updated for NPCs in Kunark.

Take care that if you \nhave taken actions allowing you to be judged sufficiently by your \ndeeds, you may still find yourself KOS.\n- Increased the number of frightfingers in the Plane of Fear. \nPreviously only 3 frightfingers would pop per respawn. \n- Several problems with the guards that were buffed up last week have \nbeen addressed. Some guards that should not have been buffed have been \nfixed. In addition, due to the level of the new guards, they all gained \nthe ability to innately see-invisible. The level of those guards has \nbeen reduced so that they no longer automatically get this ability, \nmaking it a bit easier to sneak by them.\n- Many quests have been updated and/or fixed, both in terms of ease of \ncompletion and reward.\n\n*Item Updates*\n\n- Corrected a typo that had the Canyoneer's Pike marked as NO RENT, \ncausing it to disappear on logout.\n- Corrected the model for the Axe of the Iron Back. It was showing as a \n2H sword when equipped.\n- The Halcyon Broadsword was mistakenly marked as an artifact. This has \nbeen corrected.\n- Corrected item icons for various pieces of Burynai Hide Armor. It was \ndisplaying improperly in the inventory slots.\n- The Skull Mask of Innervation has been changed so that it must be \nworn to activate its effect.\n- Corrected a problem with the Scourgetail Whip whereby the damage and \ndelay figures were transposed yielding a 30 damage, 5 delay weapon. \n- The \"Illusion: Iksar\" spell scroll is now droppable/tradeable.\n- The Goblin Eye Poker now looks like a dagger instead of a small sack.\n- The Cone of Mystics, which incidentally also looked like a small \nsack, now looks as intended.\n- Corrected a typo that had the Goblin Skull Crusher's effect set to \nthe \"Lull\" spell, which is not appropriate for a melee weapon. The \n\"Lull\" effect has been replaced with an appropriate effect.\n- The Pouch of Mistletoe Powder will now impart its effect on the \ntargeted character.\n- Mosquito Wings are available in game once again.\n- Many items had incorrect usage restrictions, and have been repaired.\n\nAs always, we strive to avoid making negative changes to items that \nalready exist in game. However, there are cases where a particularly \nunbalancing error has been made, such as with the Scourgetail Whip \nmentioned above, where the item in question must be fixed in interest \nof maintaining game balance. \n\nWe will continue to repair problems, add content, and enhance gameplay \nin both Kunark and EQ proper.

This applies to \nInternational orders as well.\n\nWe'll be taking care of these refunds via email at \nkunarkrefund@verant.com, and it will be necessary for anyone that wants \nto take advantage of this refund to send us your Station Name, billing \nname and address on the account and the date you placed the order. \nPlease also include \"Kunark Refund\" in the subject line.\n\nWe are very sorry for the problems that have come up.\n\nThe EverQuest Team","content_hash":"259d2aa243335379840ee33d220d0e40c125a1dcb271cf6960a10a447bcaa0a8","source_files":["patches-2000-1.txt","patches_1999-2008_combined.md","patches_1999-2010_combined.txt"],"source_titles":["April 24, 2000 3:00 pm"],"source_url":null,"source_urls":[],"occurrence_count":3,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"67341d6ff7da1a58efedd25f36fb5157d37ceafb7aeba0ad93ffa14e5c663e19","filename":"patches_1999-2008_combined.md","adapter":"markdown","source_offset":36761,"item_index":null,"heading":"April 24, 2000 3:00 pm","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"markdown","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"024dab767f4e5cb89dc51cfa4f7addf7c0091bc4c4b76fb9d39d8d370b5c540c","filename":"patches_1999-2010_combined.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":38494,"item_index":null,"heading":"April 24, 2000 3:00 pm","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"8f63b51fe68c153dff6cf70ad3a2525a01beb0c884752bf6540b7357472d9b91","filename":"patches-2000-1.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":33531,"item_index":null,"heading":"April 24, 2000 3:00 pm","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false}],"year_inferred":false,"sequence":1,"slug":"2000-04-24-1","id":"2000-04-24-1"}]}
