Check with your Town Crier for new editions of your \nhometown paper! \n\n*** AA REFUND *** \n\n- Extended Notes 3 and Sionachie's Cresendo have been refunded (More \ndetails below). If you had these bard AAs and were close to 30 AA \npoints stored, make certain that you spend enough points to have 30 or \nless unspent AA points before you zone. All AA points over 30 are \nremoved when you zone. \n\n- Improved Reclaim Energy has been refunded to magicians due to changes \nwith the amount of energy received when cannibalizing their pets. If \nyou have this Magician AA and were close to 30 AA points stored, make \ncertain that you spend enough points to have 30 or less unspent AA \npoints before you zone. All AA points over 30 are removed when you \nzone. \n\n** Melee enhancements ** \n\nWe have been building an enhancement to the melee system, and the first \npart of it is now Live. \n\nThe yellow bar now represents endurance rather than stamina. \n\nAll Disciplines now require an expenditure of endurance to use. They \nstill have a re-use timer, and they can't be used more often than the \ntimer allows. \n\nDisciplines have now been divided into a few different timers. \n\nWe have also added a few of the new melee skills to the game. These are \nthe skills that do not use the new \"opening\" system, but can be used \nwithout an opening present. The \"reactionary\" skills and the opening \nsystem will remain on Test for further tuning. \n\nWarriors have been given a mitigation boost. This affects all warriors \nat all levels. \n\nMonks have been given the ability to dodge blows from attackers behind \nthem. This affects all monks with the Dodge ability. \n\nAll existing disciplines can be purchased as tomes in either East \nCommons or the Plane of Knowledge. To learn a discipline, the Tome must \nbe turned into your guildmaster. \n\nSeveral new disciplines have been added for warriors, monks and rogues \nwho are above level 60. \n\n** Play King's Court in Shadowhaven! ** \n\nShandeling's Roost in Shadowhaven now houses a game of chance. To play \nyou will need to buy a King's Court Token. You then take this token and \nturn it in to any of the dealers. Based on what your hand turns out to \nbe, you will be awarded a prize. The highest hands will return a gold \nticket as the prize. This Ticket can be turned in to win prizes such as \na Guise of the Deceiver, Fungus Covered Great Staff, or Holgresh Elder \nBeads. Good luck to all that play! \n\n** Items ** \n\n- Purchased augments, that have not been bound to an item yet, can be \nsold back to Dible Hedledrap in South Ro. \n\n- Caerlyna in the Bazaar will trade your containers for tokens and will \ntrade tokens for containers. This will allow player characters to sell \nthose tokens in the Bazaar. Folks that buy the tokens can then take \nthem to the Caerlyna and trade them in for the appropriate container. \nYou can exchange most weight reducing tradeable containers for a token. \n\n- We've changed the +12 Wis on the Copper Medal of Rapture to +12 Int. \nReally, we have! \n\n- We have lowered the minimum duration to 5 ticks on Affliction \nEfficiency I-IV and Affliction Haste I-IV foci. \n\n- Timeless Coral Greatsword will no longer claim to be out of charges \nwhen it procs. If you own one of these swords, you will need to \npetition a GM and ask them to replace your current Coral Greatsword \nwith a new one. \n\n- Phylactery is no longer useable by all classes, only MAG NEC ENC WIZ \nCLR SHA DRU. \n\n- The Delightful Orb of Forgotten Magic now only procs for characters \nlevel 35 and above. \n\n- The following items that had the Invigor effect now have Serpent \nSight or Ultravision: Orb of the Crimson Bull, Abram's Axe of the \nStoic, Tolan's Darkwood Boots, Mrylokar's Greaves, Singing Steel \nVambraces, Crown of Rile, 5 Dose Potion of Wolves Blood, 5 Dose Potion \nof Fleeting Languor, 10 Dose Potion of Wolves Blood, 10 Dose Potion of \nFleeting Languor, Potion of Wolves Blood, Potion of Fleeting Languor, \nSpiroc Wingblade, Spirit Caller's Boots, Spirit Weaver's Boots, Frozen \nEfreeti Boots, Ring of the Crimson Bull, Rune Crafter's Boots, Wolf \nCaller's Boots and Camii's Bracer of Vigor. \n\n- The effects on Abram's Axe of the Stoic and Spiroc Wingblade are now \nWorn to activate, not procs. \n\n** Spells/Songs ** \n\n- New spell effects! Just about every spell in the game has been given \na new spell effect. If you have your spell effects turned off, you may \nwant to turn them back on. \n\n- Fixed the bard AA Channeling Focus. It was allowing 100% recovery \nfrom missed notes in most instances. We have restored it to the \n5%/10%/15% values as documented in the AA window. \n\n- Fixed a problem with short-duration pets (Rage of Zomm, cleric \nhammers, wizard flaming swords and such) so that they will no longer \ndissipate before engaging the target NPC. \n\n- Reclaim Energy will now return 75 percent of the mana used to summon \nthe pet, 95 percent if the caster has Improved Reclaim Energy. \n\n- Lull spells with duration less than 5 should no longer be lasting as \nif they had duration 5. This will reduce the duration of some lull-type \nspells to their proper duration. \n\n- Fixed a problem that caused Protection of the Nine to block Blessing \nof the Nine. \n\n- We corrected an issue where the same druid damage over-time spell \ncast on an NPC by two different druids would not stack. \n\n- Bulwark of Vie was reducing spell damage as well as melee damage. It \nnow only reduces melee damage. \n\n- Eye of Zomm will no longer cause players summoned pets to suicide if \ncommanded to kill the eye. \n\n- Improved the melee damage on pets focused by Ritual Summoning. \n\n- The magician epic pet can now Enrage when focused by Minion of \nDarkness. \n\n- Increased the offensive capabilities of most pets when focused by \nSummoner's Boon. \n\n- We have removed the Stamina effects from many spells. \n\n- Fixed a bug that would cause issues with pet hit points, and could \ncause them to be unable to move if their hit points got too low. This \nmay also address other issues with pets using hit-point boosting items. \n\n** Alternate Advancement ** \n\n- Extended Notes 3 and Sionachie's Cresendo have been refunded. If you \nhad these bard AAs and were close to 30 AA points stored, make certain \nthat you spend enough points to have 30 or less unspent AA points \nbefore you zone. All AA points over 30 are removed when you zone. You \nmay, of course, repurchase these AAs. \n\n- Extended Notes and Sionachie's Cresendo no longer affects harmful \narea-of-effect spells. \n\n- Jamfest has been fixed. It will now affect the bard's group, not just \nthe bard. \n\n- The Archetype AA ability Spell Casting Deftness was not reducing the \ncasting time for the wizard spell Harvest. It does now. \n\n** Tradeskills ** \n\n- Merchants will not pay more for a tradeskill product than the cost of \nthe components needed to make it. However, they will still sell those \nproducts for the same amount. \n\n** Zones and Quests ** \n\n- Maelin will now respond as though you have the Quintessence, as long \nas you are flagged for time. It is also now possible to receive any of \nthe earlier progression flags, even if you have already earned access \nto the Plane of Time. \n\n** User Interface ** \n\n- Tell windows now log the name of the person sending tells in the chat \nlog. \n\n- Tell windows now blink when a tell is received, even when the window \nis not minimized. \n\n- Fixed a problem that caused users some ATI cards to be unable to see \nthe /find path or the targeting ring. \n\n- We have added a new combat ability windown which allows you to make \nup to eight hot keys for disciplines and other new melee abilities and \ndisplays any current melee effects. The window can be opened by \npressing Alt+C. The keys are accessible using either the mouse or Ctrl+\n1-8. \n\n** Miscellaneous ** \n\n- Added some explanation text to the targetindicator.ini file that help \nexplain how to modify the targeting ring. \n\n** UI Files ** \n\nAttackIndicator.tga \nEQUI.xml \nEQUI_CharacterCreate.xml \nEQUI_CombatAbilityWnd.xml \nEQUI_CombatSkillsSelectWnd.xml \nEQUI_GroupSearchWnd.xml \nEQUI_PlayerWindow.xml \nEQUI_SkillsWnd.xml","content_hash":"6eed3745fbddc4d3b85a1ec3f3a7477c34415c60e9215ba0690f4c23aafb00a8","source_files":["patches-2003-2.txt","patches_1999-2008_combined.md","patches_1999-2010_combined.txt"],"source_titles":["December 18, 2003"],"source_url":null,"source_urls":[],"occurrence_count":3,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"5dc50592a922d09abf8232fd6b22f9a565e0a41f0e7a620087e6840a7cb6bc0d","filename":"patches_1999-2008_combined.md","adapter":"markdown","source_offset":556677,"item_index":null,"heading":"December 18, 2003","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"markdown","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"e1905740878b574503cb450d865c64aa0deb27f4501c5148507b0ba4be71d584","filename":"patches_1999-2010_combined.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":573112,"item_index":null,"heading":"December 18, 2003","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"9908f4b9d002dfed0614548b08eb07b73ec0517c37e52439ca6e5ae0e8426cfe","filename":"patches-2003-2.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":55786,"item_index":null,"heading":"December 18, 2003","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false}],"year_inferred":false,"sequence":1,"slug":"2003-12-18-1","id":"2003-12-18-1"},{"patch_date":"2003-11-05","effective_date":"2003-11-05","display_date":"November 5, 2003","title":"November 5, 2003","year":2003,"month":11,"kind":"live","era":"EverQuest Live","expansion":"Lost Dungeons of Norrath","expansion_code":"lost-dungeons-of-norrath","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":"ui","label":"UI"},{"slug":"pvp","label":"PvP"},{"slug":"expansions","label":"Expansions"}],"sections":["Quests, Adventures and Encounters","Skills and Alternate Advancement","Spells and Pets","Interface","Items","For the New Player","Miscellaneous","UI Files","Changed","New"],"change_count":49,"word_count":1166,"summary":"Quests, Adventures and Encounters ** We have added one more new LDoN raid to Stormhammer.

We \nhave added a random interval to the respawn time of the Plane of Air \navatar rings, placed apparitions at the avatar spawns so that it is \npossible to tell when the event is available, and the Avatar of Smoke \nwill now respawn properly.\n- The Mujaki event in Plane of Nightmares was completely rewritten._ It \nshould now be a lot more intelligent about where it sends players.\n- Increased the number of items found at the end of a successful LDoN \nraid.\n\n** Skills and Alternate Advancement **\n\n- Channeling Focus was not giving bards the proper reduction to the \nchance of missing a note._ It is now fixed and gives messages to \nindicate when it is has helped.\n- Corrected a problem that was causing Alternate Advancement buff \nduration increase abilities and duration focus effects to negatively \naffect lull spells. \n- We have fixed a bug that could cause pick pocketed items to not show \nup on your cursor until you zone. This could also sometimes cause the \nclient to crash.\n- Added /stoptracking command so that you no longer have to re-open the \ntrack window and hit cancel if you want to cancel your tracking \nquickly.\n- Activated AAs from Planes of Power were not working if the user did \nnot have Shadows of Luclin registered. This has been fixed.\n\n** Spells and Pets **\n\n- The Aura of Pain Recourse can no longer be removed by Radiant Cure.\n- When the character changes size (through illusion), other players \nwill no longer see the mounted player separate from their horse.\n- Magician Pets will no longer attack the caster who summoned them.\n- Hitting your own pet while in a PVP area or while you have the PK \nflag on will no longer kill it.\n- Cataclysm of Ro has had its movement rate bonus removed to fix a \nstacking issue with the Selo's line of movement rate songs.\n- Cassindra's Chant of Clarity_and Cassindra's Chorus of Clarity now \nlasts 3 ticks instead of being instant.\n- Cloak of Luclin, Cloak of the Akheva and Frostreaver's Blessing will \nno longer be overwritten by Call of the Rathe.\n- There are still some issues with Frostreaver's blessing being \noverwritten by some spells._ We are aware of the issue and hope to get \nit resolved soon.\n- Protection of the Cabbage, Protection of the Glades and Protection of \nthe Nine will block Temperance, Aegolism and Virtue.\n- Ice Flame of E`ci now has the standard 2.5 second recast time.\n- Reclaim energy should now function properly on the pet summoned by \nChild of Bertoxxulous.\n-Beastlord warders focused by Summoner's boon should now look as they \nshould.\n\n** Interface **\n\n- We have added the consider color to the Target window. The art used \nto display the consider color can be removed or edited via XML by \ncustom skins.\n- We have also added a 3D target indicator._ The ring color indicates \nthe con color of the target._ This can be turned off in the Options \nwindow. A new settings file in the UI folder can be edited by players \nto customize the appearance of the indicator, including different \nanimated textures for each con color and other interesting settings.\n- Added /fontface command (usage /fontface , e.g. /fontface Courier). \nThis will change, on the fly, the fonts used by the interface (and over \ncharacter's heads). Fonts can also be selected in the General Options \npage.\n- Added /tell windows. Each time you get a \"tell\" from a new character, \na new chat window would open. That window will only display \"tells\" \nfrom the particular character, and any message sent from the chat \nwindow would automatically be sent as a \"tell\" to that character. You \ncan turn this option on and off in the Options window. If you have the \nmaximum number of chat windows open when a new tell is received, the \ntell will go to the main chat window\n- Temporary pets will no longer send their buffs to the pet window. \nGenerally they have none, and they would replace the buffs of any \nstandard pet.\n- The buff display portion of the pet window will now fade.\n- The Auto-inventory area of the Inventory window now fades with the \nparent window.\n- The Dump button in raid window now creates the proper, non-blank, \nfile.\n- We have also added time-stamp to Raid Dump output file.\n- Pop-up dialogs no longer close when you press ESC. This will prevent \nthe rez dialog from being closed accidentally.\n- Lay on Hands will no longer \"gray out\" the Inspect and Open hot keys \nin the Hotbutton window. This was fixed earlier in the Actions window, \nbut now it is fixed in the Hotbutton window as well.\n- Alt-tabbing in and out of EQ should no longer cause mouse issues.\n- Fixed a bug that sometimes left charmed pets health bar in the group \nwindow after the owner of that pet is killed.\n- Find trader can now be cancelled in bazaar.\n\n** Items **\n\n- The Copper Medal of Rapture now gives a bonus to Int. instead of Wis.\n\n** For the New Player **\n\n- Left-clicking on an NPC prints out a message indicating what type of \nNPC they are and indicating that you should right-click on them. This \nmessage can be turned off in the Options window.\n- New characters will now start with a bag.\n- Added a tip window that pops up when you invoke the Quantity window \nthat explains the use of Shift and Control when selecting items.\n- All characters will gain a Sense Heading skill of 200, if it was \nbelow 200. All new characters will start with a Sense Heading of 200.\n\n** Miscellaneous **\n\n- Explore mode works properly again.\n\n** UI Files **\n\n* Changed *\nEQUI_OptionsWindow.xml\nEQUI_TargetWindow.xml\nEQUI_Animations.xml\n\n* New *\nTargetindicator.ini\nTargetBox.tga\nTargetIndicator.tga","content_hash":"4041f4cb736de41d0120ac9eb77a8a3187be8399ddcba3c5b2d09d5842578124","source_files":["patches-2003-2.txt","patches_1999-2008_combined.md","patches_1999-2010_combined.txt"],"source_titles":["November 5, 2003"],"source_url":null,"source_urls":[],"occurrence_count":3,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"240c75ddd6f4ed557cbccf029ef573ad968391f0f60895cd9408dbbcbfc1cfae","filename":"patches_1999-2008_combined.md","adapter":"markdown","source_offset":550069,"item_index":null,"heading":"November 5, 2003","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"markdown","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"e375e7107f32e817ae7487e52819593c771fb35bfa8b32bd1496c7eb02c05872","filename":"patches_1999-2010_combined.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":566407,"item_index":null,"heading":"November 5, 2003","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"23b28002aa0a2ca5bb05966dce148d2a328c540f89029791a8ed86b3fa8ed50e","filename":"patches-2003-2.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":49081,"item_index":null,"heading":"November 5, 2003","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false}],"year_inferred":false,"sequence":1,"slug":"2003-11-05-1","id":"2003-11-05-1"},{"patch_date":"2003-10-09","effective_date":"2003-10-09","display_date":"October 9, 2003","title":"October 9, 2003","year":2003,"month":10,"kind":"live","era":"EverQuest Live","expansion":"Lost Dungeons of Norrath","expansion_code":"lost-dungeons-of-norrath","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":"ui","label":"UI"},{"slug":"servers","label":"Servers"},{"slug":"audio-graphics","label":"Audio & Graphics"},{"slug":"expansions","label":"Expansions"}],"sections":["Zones and NPCs","Adventures","Items and Objects","For the New Player","Interface","Spells","Tradeskills","Alternate Advancement","UI Files","Changed","New","New Labels"],"change_count":86,"word_count":2231,"summary":"Zones and NPCs ** Two new raid zones have been added to the Lost Dungeons on the Legends server.

These are Guk-themed raids, one for Elemental Plane and \none for Time Plane capable raiders.\n\n- The revamped Plane of Mischief is now available on all Live servers.\n\n- There were some situations where the warders in Vex Thal could be up, \nbut the bosses needed to kill them would not be available. That \nshouldn't happen anymore.\n\n- Shrunk the giant wolves that appeared in the lands. \n\n- The Coirnav encounter has been changed. Be much more careful if you \nhave been relying on stuns to deal with this encounter.\n\n- Corrected an issue with the Filth Gorgers that was causing them to \nremain around with they were supposed to despawn.\n\n- Soldiers of Madness in Grieg's End will no longer be so unbelievably \nnumerous.\n\n- Zoning into the Plane of Fire will no longer cause characters to \noccasionally take 20k points of damage.\n\n- The Froglok Hunter and Forager will no longer be killed by the \ninhabitants of Trakanon's Teeth, so they should be easier to find.\n\n- When Mithaniel Marr is killed, his planar projection now spawns in \nthe middle of his room rather than at the point of death. This fixes a \nproblem that could cause the projection to appear out of reach.\n\n- The Qeynos investigator is now taking \"follow me\" orders again.\n\n** Adventures **\n\n- Every character that successfully completes an adventure will now get \nat least one point as a reward. This is also true for the \n\"consolation\" rewards.\n\n- Completing Hard adventures will yield more points.\n\n- Several trap spells on interactive objects have had their severity \nreduced.\n\n- Added some new type 7 and type 8 augmentations to various adventure \nmerchants.\n\n- It will be clearer now which raids are \"hard\" and which are \"normal\". \nHard raids are intended for Time capable guilds. They are very hard.\n\n- All raid recruiters now properly check to be sure that you have \ncompleted two adventures in their respective themes before they will \ngive out the raid.\n\n- Fixed an issue in a Mistmoore's Catacomb raid that was preventing \nplayers from accessing an interactive object they had earned for \nkilling Sfisithik.\n\n- Removed the ability to see through Shroud of Stealth from some of the \nNPCs that appear in LDoN Raids.\n\n- There was a misconception about the behavior of goblins in some \nRujarkian Hills adventures. Goblins that are fleeing because they are \nunwilling to die or are seeking help will make it clear that they are \ndoing so. We also corrected an issue that could cause these goblins to \n\"ping pong\" in some cases.\n\n- All of the \"flavor\" NPCs in dungeons (usually those that are lying \ndown, nearly dead) will display full health to make it impossible to \ntell what kind of NPC they are (friend or foe) simply by looking at \ntheir health level.\n\n- Hostages will no longer be attacked by their captors.\n\n- We thinned out the population in the Grand Library and a few other \nMiragul's Menagerie themed zones to bring the challenge in line.\n\n- Rats in Mistmoore's Catacombs are now animals, shadows are now \nsummoned.\n\n** Items and Objects **\n\n- Corrected a bug that allowed players to buy multiple lore \naugmentations if they were in a bag (which also caused issues when \ntrying to loot corpses with those items). If you had multiple lore \nitems, the extra items will be removed. A refund for the points spent \non those items will be made when they are deleted.\n\n- Broken Chunk of Coal, Cracked Ruby, and Charred Pebble are no longer \nvalid augmentations. If you had these augmentations bonded to an item, \nyou will find them on your cursor. You can take those items to Dible \nHedledrap in South Ro and he will restore your adventure points.\n\n- Perfect Garnet of Constitution, Pristine Garnet of Constitution, \nPerfect Sapphire of Insight, and Pristine Sapphire of Insight can be \nturned in to Dible Heldedrap in South Ro. He will replace them with \ntype 8 versions of the same items.\n\n- Changed pre-LDoN items to have a single slot of type 7 instead of 1. \nSome LDoN items which had a slot type 1 were also changed to type 7.\n\n- Fixed a bug with the Adventurer's Stone that would sometimes cause it \nto not display its bonuses.\n\n- Interactive objects will now only appear on LDoN raids when the main \nboss has been killed. This change was done to prevent an exploit, and \nis a temporary change.\n\n- We have improved the types of rewards that can be found in \ninteractive objects to improve the reward given for the risk taken by \nopening them.\n\n- Fixed a bug that prevented augments with no deity restrictions from \ncombining with deity-restricted items.\n\n- Added a message that should make it clearer when a character is \nunable to loot an interactive object because they are on an NPC's hate \nlist.\n\n- Hand-to-hand weapons are now part of the one-handed restriction on \naugmentations. So augmentations that say they can be used with one-\nhanded items will also work with hand-to-hand items.\n\n- Geomancer's Crown of Reformation now fits in the head slot and the \neffect is worn instead of right clicked.\n\n- Gravestone of Dire Melodies and the Limestone Shard of Battle Cries \nwill now properly modify instrument skills.\n\n- All of Royal Attendant Armor will now show up as plate armor.\n\n- Rogue pets focused with Summoner's Boon should no longer lose the \nability to backstab.\n\n- Shard of Shrunken Bone was changed from Shield of Pain III to Shield \nof Pain II.\n\n- Changed many of the new Lost Dungeons \"shields\" to make them useable \nas shields (they can be used to bash now).\n\n- Removed augmentation slots from the following items: Primal Velium \nKnight's Sword, Divine Hammer of Consternation, Breezeboot's Frigid \nGnasher, Primal Velium Fist Wraps, Primal Velium Battlehammer, Primal \nVelium Spear, Primal Velium Claidhmore, Primal Velium Brawl Stick, \nPrimal Velium War Lance, Primal Velium Reinforced Bow, Primal Velium \nBattle Axe, Primal Velium Warsword, Ancient Prismatic Bow, Ancient \nPrismatic Lance, Ancient Prismatic Spear, Ancient Prismatic Claymore, \nAncient Prismatic Brawl Stick, Ancient Prismatic Battlehammer, Ancient \nPrismatic Warsword, Ancient Prismatic Axe, Ancient Prismatic Fist \nWraps, Ancient Prismatic Staff, Ancient Prismatic Stiletto, and Ancient \nPrismatic Mace.\n\n- Changed some weapons dropped from rare NPC's in LDoN zones to have \nslot type 4 instead of 1.\n\n- Changed Pristine Limestone of Hatred to Vengeance IV.\n\n- The hp/mana augmentations that dropped in adventures as slot 1 items \nwill no longer drop. They have been replaced with similar items that \nfit into slot 7.\n\n- Made changes to various stats and effects on Plane of Time items.\n\n- Changed the level required to use the right-click effect on Wild Lord \nArmor to 45, to match all other Kunark armor.\n\n- Corrected a bug with mounts that would sometimes leave the horse buff \nup without the actual mount. Also corrected a problem that could cause \na player to be unable to summon a mount.\n\n- Fixed the haste on Spiritbound Mystic's Torch \n\n- Altered the damage and delay on the Delightful Orb of Forgotten Magic \nto be more appropriate for where it drops\n\n\n** For the New Player **\n\n- Find Feature added. This will create a mystical indication of the \npath to take to find certain people. This feature works in the Bazaar \nand in newbie zones and cities. In the Bazaar you just click on the \nmerchant you seek in the Bazaar window and click the Find Trader \nbutton. For all other uses, just hit CTRL+F to open the window, select \nsomeone on the list and click the Find button. This will locate any \nBazaar trader or any NPC with an alternate name, such as (Spell \nVendor). The exception is that it will not locate NPCs in the \nWayfarer's Camps.\n\n- The auto-attack key now defaults to Q (not A). \n\n- New characters start with their weapons and armor equipped.\n\n- New characters start with their spells scribed and memorized.\n\n- When a caster reaches the level required for one of the first two \nrings of new spells, they will get a message informing them that new \nspells are available. \n\n- New characters will begin with a stack of bandages. These bandages \ncannot be sold or traded.\n\n- When a character trains in a hotbutton-able skill that he did not \npreviously have skill in, a hotbutton for that skill is created on the \ncursor.\n\n- New characters will have a page of hotbuttons set for them based on \nthe skills given to them by their class and race.\n\n** Interface **\n\n- Merchants now separate items with different charges in their list. \nFor example, 9 dose and 10 dose potions will show up as separate items \non the merchant's list. Items with the same amount of charges will be \nstacked. NOTE: This will remove the ability to \"recharge\" items by \nselling them to a vendor and buying them back.\n\n- The Bazaar now supports selling different charged items. For example, \na 10 dose potion with 9 charges can be sold for 90 plat., while a 10 \ndose version of the same potion can be sold for 100 plat. NOTE: All \ncurrently priced charged items will no longer have a price attached and \nwill need to be reset by the trader.\n\n- Pet buffs are now visible in the pet window. A small icon will \ndisplay for each buff on the pet (up to 30 - you may need to resize the \npet window). You can hover your mouse over the icon to see the spell \nname. Alt left-click or right-click and hold for spell info box (which \nonly contains name and icon).\n\n- Improved the functionality of the ESC key. Windows close in the \nopposite order that they were opened.\n\n- Swarm pet damage is filtered under \"pet damage\" rather than \"others \nhits\".\n\n- When World Containers (ovens, kilns, augmentation sealers and similar \nitems) are closed, No Drop items in those containers will be placed in \nthe character's inventory. If it will not fit there, it will appear on \ntheir cursor.\n\n- The \"Only show items I can use\" option in the Adventure Merchant \nwindow will be saved when you log out.\n\n- Hotbuttons created using the Abilities and Combat skill lists are no \nlonger connected to the buttons in the Actions window. This means that \nyou can create a button on the Abilities or Combat section of the \nactions window, drag that button to the hotbutton window, then change \nthe button on the Abilities or Combat section, and the hotbutton you \nmade will not change. This allows you to create hotbuttons for ALL of \nyour character's skills, not just the ones that can fit in the Actions \nwindow.\n\n- You can now use the (`) key to \"Target nearest NPC\", in addition to \nF8. \n\n- Shared bank slots will no longer accept rentable containers with no-\nrent items in them.\n\n- A new system for the leaderboard has been implemented to track \nadventures by their difficulty. You can sort by normal/hard/all \ndifficulty. Not only will this display the stats for the leaders, but \nyou will also be able to see your own successes and failures at the \nbottom, based on the sorting you chose for the leaderboard. So, for \nexample, if you filter the leaderboard by Miragul's Wins and choose \nHard, you will not only see the leaders for Hard adventures in that \ntheme, you will see your own statistics for Hard Miragul's adventures. \nNOTE: Because this tracking is new, it will only be able to \ndifferentiate hard and normal adventures from the time of this update \nonward. Past adventures will be treated as if they were normal \ndifficulty. \n\n- /autojoin is not saved per character, not for all characters.\n\n- The Open and Inspect buttons are no longer \"grayed-out\" when Lay on \nHands or Harm Touch are used.\n\n- Merchant inventories will refresh properly after a character \npurchases the last of an item in inventory.\n\n** Spells **\n\n- Casting Grow on an unshrunk shaman pet will no longer shrink the pet.\n\n- Remove Minor Curse cures 2 curse counters instead of 3-4.\n\n- Lich and Pact of Hate now use different colored skeleton models.\n\n- Monster Summoning will summon the correct models, not just earth \nelementals.\n\n- Frostreaver's Blessing will no longer block the bard song Wind of \nMarr. We realize there are still some stacking issues with these \nspells, and we hope to resolve them soon.\n\n** Tradeskills **\n\n- The Blessed Steel Arrowheads recipe will return the file.\n\n- NPC Merchants will now pay less for Steel Hunter Arrows, Steel \nArrowshafts, and Steel Fletch.\n\n- The Muckskipper Chowder recipe no longer returns a pot on a failure \nor success, since the recipe does not require a pot at all.\n\n- The recipe for the \"Lemming Fur Backpack\" now requires an \nEmbroidering Needle instead of a Sewing Needle.\n\n** Alternate Advancement **\n\n- Jewelcraft Mastery works properly now.\n\n- Frenzied Burnout will no longer last indefinitely on a charmed pet.\n\n** UI Files **\n\n* Changed *\n\nEQUI.xml\nEQUI_ActionsWindow.xml\nEQUI_AdventureLeaderboardWnd.xml\nEQUI_BazaarSearchWnd.xml\nEQUI_LootWnd.xml\nEQUI_OptionsWindow.xml\nEQUI_PetInfoWindow.xml\nEQUI_RaidWindow.xml\n\n* New *\n\nEQUI_FindLocationWnd.xml\n\n* New Labels *\n\n86-115 for the pet buff names.","content_hash":"2abee9d036b3a96d05b281b289048c5873e0a63510187ceeb46efc29cb74ddc1","source_files":["patches-2003-2.txt","patches_1999-2008_combined.md","patches_1999-2010_combined.txt"],"source_titles":["October 9, 2003"],"source_url":null,"source_urls":[],"occurrence_count":3,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"3d38085760648e91aab94102021cb06b39d231f4f98c4742b8684d8da0a33a82","filename":"patches_1999-2008_combined.md","adapter":"markdown","source_offset":537044,"item_index":null,"heading":"October 9, 2003","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"markdown","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"894e9c9fe0030f7205f1e7a7c9c442bd453466664681a3a724d65c7a33cad255","filename":"patches_1999-2010_combined.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":553285,"item_index":null,"heading":"October 9, 2003","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"9900e94678b954ccbd7157da78cd02cf054d5df6f076a4d23028270ac4ac2756","filename":"patches-2003-2.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":35959,"item_index":null,"heading":"October 9, 2003","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false}],"year_inferred":false,"sequence":1,"slug":"2003-10-09-1","id":"2003-10-09-1"},{"patch_date":"2003-09-09","effective_date":"2003-09-09","display_date":"September 9, 2003","title":"September 9, 2003","year":2003,"month":9,"kind":"live","era":"EverQuest Live","expansion":"Lost Dungeons of Norrath","expansion_code":"lost-dungeons-of-norrath","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":"ui","label":"UI"},{"slug":"audio-graphics","label":"Audio & Graphics"},{"slug":"expansions","label":"Expansions"}],"sections":["Lost Dungeons of Norrath Launches!","Game Updates","Items","do the following","Zones and Quests","Spells","Interface","Miscellaneous","see this message","UI Files","Changed","New","Known Issues","Use Augmentations Wisely"],"change_count":20,"word_count":1114,"summary":"Lost Dungeons of Norrath Launches! *** Make sure to check out this groundbreaking new expansion!

Order now and join the \ngrand Adventure!\n\n*** Game Updates ***\n\n** Items **\n\n- Warrior and Magician epic changes – A new version of these two epic \nitems is available to accommodate the new item augmentations. Both of \nthese epics are basically summoned items, and therefore they would lose \nany augmentations when used or unsummoned. Players wishing to change \nthese items into \"permanent\" versions in order to augment them should \ndo the following:\n\nWarrior Epic - Talk to Gartrog Smitehammer in East Freeport. He will \nreplace your Red Scabbard and Jagged Blade of War with augmentable \nversions of the Jagged Blade of War, the Blade of Strategy, and the \nBlade of Tactics. You will not receive the Red Scabbard back, as it \nwill no longer be useful to you.\n\nMagician Epic - Talk to Ilisiv Gantrau in the Tox Forest. She will take \na summoned Orb of Mastery and replace it with a permanent augmentable \norb. The epic pet is still summoned in exactly the same way, with no \nchanges to the spell or use.\n\n** Zones and Quests **\n\n- Plane of Mischief - We have updated the factions for a few NPCs for \nthis zone on Stormhammer only. All of the NPCs there are meant to be \naggressive. Some of them were on the wrong faction, and were not \naggressive. They are now.\n\n- The Deep - There were some NPCs in this zone that could see invisible \nbut were bugged to be non-aggressive. They will again be aggressive, so \nbe more cautious when using invisibility in The Deep.\n\n- Plane of Valor - The Aerin'Dar projection was despawning after only a \nfew minutes. It will now remain as long as other projections.\n\n- City of Mist - Black Reavers are immune to magic once again.\n\n- Oxidized Steel Plate will now drop. This should allow the completion \nof the Rallican’s Bracer quest\n\n- The Ghost of Kindle has returned.\n\n- Manastone is no longer usable in The Hole.\n\n- The trader limit increase mentioned in the last update should be \nworking properly now.\n\n** Spells **\n\n- We have reduced the cost of the Summon Wooden, Stone and Iron \nBracelet spells. \n\n- We have added new Skeleton models for pets, illusions, and \ntransformation spells.\n\n- We have changed the underlying way that pet focus items work to allow \nfor future upgrades and items. All existing foci should work as they \nalways have. If you notice anything unusual when using a pet focus, \nplease /bug report the issue.\n\n** Interface **\n\n- Context Tips - We have added a question mark symbol to windows that \nhave help information available.

That is no longer possible. If you \nsee this message: \n\n\"You currently have characters created on opposing deity alliances. You \ncan only have characters that are on the same alliance. Please correct \nthis by deleting the character that was recently created and has an \nopposing alliance with the first character you created.\" \n\nYou will not be able to log in until you delete any characters that are \nnot on the same alliance.\n\n** UI Files **\n\n* Changed *\n\nSIDL.xml\nEQUI_Templates.xml\nEQUI_Animations.xml\nEQUI.xml\ndragitem27.tga\nwindow_pieces01.tga\n\n* New *\n\nEQUI_AdventureRequestWnd.xml\nEQUI_AdventureMerchantWnd.xml\nEQUI_AdventureLeaderboardWnd.xml\nEQUI_AdventureStatsWnd.xml\n\n\n** Known Issues **\n_\nThis is the list of cosmetic issues that we're aware aren't perfect, \nbut determined as acceptable to launch with, as_none should affect \npeoples' ability to enjoy the game._ \n_\nRather than attempt last-minute changes that often break more than they \nfix, these will be addressed in an update after Lost Dungeons' launch.\n_\n- Paladins and Shadowknights:_ The new INSPECT and OPEN ability buttons \nwill *appear* disabled for the duration of your Harm Touch or Lay Hands \ntimers when you use those abilities._ You may still use INSPECT and \nOPEN, however._ It just won't look like you can.\n_\n- When receiving an adventure from one of the Wayfarers' Camps, for \nnow, the Adventure Window does not automatically close when you walk \naway from the Adventure Recruiter as it should._ \n_\n- Pet Users:_ If you tell your pet to attack an interactive object \n(chest, vase, coffin, etc) inside of a dungeon, your pet will tell you \nthat it is attacking, but it will not actually attack._ This is a \nproblem with the message, not the behavior. _The pet should be telling \nyou that it cannot attack such a thing.\n\n** Use Augmentations Wisely **\n\nIf you have an item with more than one slot available and you intend to \napply an Augmentation Item that can fit into any slot (i.e. Type 1), be \nsure to apply it last.\n\nFor example, you have an item with three slots available and you have \nfilled Slot 1 with an Augmentation Item. In your bag you have an \nAugmentation Item that can fit into any slot on the item (i.e. Type 1) \nand one that fits into Slot 2. If you use the Type 1 Augmentation Item \nfirst, it will fill the first open slot on your item, which would be \nSlot 2 in this case. This means you will not be able to use the Slot 2-\nspecific Augmentation Item you had available. \n\nSo, remember, the rule is that if you have an Augmentation Item that \ncan be used it any slot, be sure to apply it last!","content_hash":"78fd2f75189a11d486f56510d36f3072ef87447645aa8bd9cf5f777f4febd7ff","source_files":["patches-2003-2.txt","patches_1999-2010_combined.txt"],"source_titles":["September 9, 2003"],"source_url":null,"source_urls":[],"occurrence_count":2,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"3b4480aa4603a2f99ed225e10e05d5a2aba12cf40a87ca8c0b22857886c9eb85","filename":"patches_1999-2010_combined.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":546734,"item_index":null,"heading":"September 9, 2003","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"895d7107fef233d072567629a4fa9ea99239995134d444092cbceab95bd09efe","filename":"patches-2003-2.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":29408,"item_index":null,"heading":"September 9, 2003","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false}],"year_inferred":false,"sequence":1,"slug":"2003-09-09-1","id":"2003-09-09-1"},{"patch_date":"2003-08-28","effective_date":"2003-08-28","display_date":"August 28, 2003","title":"August 28, 2003","year":2003,"month":8,"kind":"live","era":"EverQuest Live","expansion":"The Legacy of Ykesha","expansion_code":"the-legacy-of-ykesha","categories":[{"slug":"bug-fixes","label":"Bug Fixes"},{"slug":"zones-npcs","label":"Zones & NPCs"},{"slug":"quests-events","label":"Quests & Events"}],"sections":[],"change_count":7,"word_count":165,"summary":"Two Bastion of Thunder keys and one key in the Plane of Air that were supposed to open up a location for your entire group were only taking the key holder.

Gameplay in these zones has been \nimproved, based on feedback from players and careful review of the \ncontent. The changes are not dramatic, but make these zones more \nentertaining to play in. \n\n- The Plane of Mischief, home of the trickster Bristlebane, has \nundergone an extensive revamp. As one of the most unusual places to \nvisit in EverQuest, this zone is a very interesting challenge, if you \nhave a sturdy funny bone. The improved zone is now available on \nStormhammer. \n\n- The Greig's End revamp is now available on the Live servers. The \nredesign includes new encounters, items, traps, and events that make \nthe zone a challenge for the experience group, with plenty of events \nfor a raid group. \n\n** Interface ** \n\n- /memspellset # - Using this command memorizes one of your saved spell \nsets. # is the number or name (or shortened name) of the spell set you \nwish to memorize. Note that if you use a shortened version of the spell \nset name, it will match the first spell set that has those characters, \nso /memspellset Dots will find your \"Dots and Charms\", or \"Dots\", or \n\"Dotsandstuff\" - whichever shows up first on your list. \n\n- A Platinum slot has been added to the shared bank to make \ntransactions between characters on the same account more convenient. \n\n- Clip Plane - The clip plane slider should work more reliably now. \nWhere before it may not have done anything until lowered to a very low \npercentage, now the slider should have an effect at any setting. \n\n- Filters for your own pet's messages have been added. Your own pet's \nattacks are no longer subject to the Other Attacks/Misses filters. On \nthe options screen there is now a separate button for filtering YOUR \nPet attack messages. Also, the ability to redirect your pet attack \nmessages to any chat window has been added to the chat window context \nmenus. \n\n- /random messages can now be sent to any chat window you'd like. There \nis no option to filter these messages, however, to prevent any loss of \nthe information in cases where it is needed (meaning, people can't \nclaim that they didn't see the /random that they lost just to force a \nre-roll). \n\n- The Journal Window has been changed to make it easier to use and \nunderstand. We've merged the the two information windows into a single \nwindow. \n\n- Fixed a bug in the Looking for Group window. The Get Matches button \nshould no longer grey out at inappropriate times. \n\n- The Bad Word Filter now filters chat channel text as well as other \ngame text. \n\n- To make things a little more logical, the /inspect command will allow \ncharacters to inspect interactive objects for LDoN, and /toggleinspect \nallows you to toggle on or off the ability to inspect other player \ncharacters using the mouse. \n\n** Alternate Advancement ** \n\n- Purify Soul reuse time reduced from 72 minutes to 30 minutes. \n\n- Divine Resurrection reuse time reduced from 36 hours to 18 hours. \n\n- Celestial Regeneration reuse timer reduced from 72 minutes to 15 \nminutes. We have increased the duration from 24 seconds to 48 seconds, \nadjusted the amount healed, and made this a group effect. \n\n- Celestial Renewal duration increased from 24 seconds to 48 seconds, \nadjusted the amount healed, and this has become a group effect. \n\n- Harmtouch has been fixed. There was a problem with the timer for \nHarmtouch that would make it appear to reset when the character was \nlogged out, even though it does not reset until the appropriate amount \nof time has passed. \n\n- Summon Death Charger and Summon Holy Steed have been fixed. We fixed \na bug that caused these abilities to fail until the character zoned or \nlogged out. \n\n- Endless Quiver no longer grants an endless supply of thrown weapons, \nonly arrows. \n\n** Spells ** \n\n- Unswerving Hammer of Faith has had its mana cost reduced from 250 to \n175. \n\n- Divine Barrier no longer has a damage shield component and has gained \nthree times the healing effect. \n\n- Celestial Remedy has had its mana cost lowered from 190 to 150. \n\n- A targeting issue with pets is now fixed. There was a bug that caused \npets to be untargetable with the F1 key and with pet spells that target \nthe pet automatically. This was happening only if a pet was summoned \nand then a mount was summoned. \n\n- AE Rain Spells were resisted 100% of the time when an NPC was above \nlevel 20 and had less than 10% of its hit points left. This will no \nlonger happen. \n\n- Eye of Zomm would cause a player's pet to kill itself if that pet was \ncommanded to kill the owner's Eye. This has been corrected. Also, the \nEye no longer moves at incredible speed under water, but they can now \nswim up and down in water. \n\n- PBAoE Songs no longer prevent a bard from singing if used while the \nbard has himself targeted. \n\n- Illusions can once again be cast on others while the caster is on a \nmount. \n\n- When Invisibility drops due to looting a corpse, the player will be \ninformed that their invisibility has dropped. \n\n- Pets no longer break enthrall. \n\n- Armor of the Zealot will no longer be overwritten by Focus of Soul \nand Focus of the Seventh. Blessed Armor of the Risen and Ancient: High \nPriest's Bulwark will no longer be overwritten by Focus of Spirit or \nKhura's Focusing. Also, Pact of Hate and Call of Darkness should stack \nproperly (meaning that they won't stack). \n\n- Illusion: Guktan was fixed on all servers a little while ago. We just \nwanted you to be aware that the spell will make the target look like a \nGuktan, not a male human. \n\n** Zones and Quests ** \n\n- Bazaar - We have increased the limit on the number of traders in the \nbazaar. We fixed an issue that would cause the \"Begin Trader\" button to \nbe disabled if a player tried to use it when the maximum number of \ntraders was reached. And the \"Held\" slot option was removed from the \nsearch, since it is not a valid option. \n\n- The Coirnav Encounter has been modified to respawn faster when the \nencounter is failed badly (if the attempt fails to reach a certain \ndepth in the encounter). \n\n- The Illusion: Guktan quest had some issues. We have addressed them. \n\n** New Player Improvements ** \n\n- After creating a new character, that character is the default \nselection on the character select screen. \n\n- At character creation, left-clicking on an attribute displays text \nthat explains what that attribute is important for. Right-clicking \nallocates the maximum possible points to that attribute. \n\n- To help reduce clutter for the new player, the Story window no longer \npops up when a player first logs in. \n\n- When a context Tip window pops up, if the Tip of the Day is still \nopen, the Tip of the Day window will close. Again, this is to help \nreduce the clutter. \n\n- We've change the name of the \"Camp\" button in the Actions window to \n\"Camp (Exit)\" for clarity. \n\n- The Inventory Tip window now explains how to read books and notes, \nhow to give/trade items with NPC's, and how to scribe spells. \n\n- We've added a text message on the screen to inform players when they \nare loading a zone, and what zone they are about to enter. \n\n- Added numeric background to buttons in the Hot Button window to make \nit easier to tell which button corresponds to which number key. \n\n- The Mousewheel zoom is now enabled by default. \n\n- New installations of EverQuest will default to 1024x768 resolution. \n\n** Misc ** \n\n- Fixed a bug that caused some equipment to be invisible on characters \ncreated recently (since our update on August 6th). \n\n- Luclin elemental models will now display if selected, regardless of \nother settings for Luclin models. You can turn these models on with no \nother Luclin models active, and you will see the Luclin elemental. \n\n- Hitting cancel on a trade window or using the /consent or /deny \ncommands will now only send you one message, not two. \n\n** UI Files ** \n\n* Changed * \n\nEQUI_BankWnd.xml \nEQUI_BigBankWnd.xml \nEQUI_OptionsWindow.xml \nEQUI_ActionsWindow.xml \nEQUI_JournalNPCWnd.xml \nSIDL.xml \nEQUI_Animations.xml \nEQUI_HotButtonWnd.xml \nEQUI.xml \n\ndragitem26.tga \n\n* New * \n\ndragitem27.tga \nwindow_pieces06.tga \nwindow_pieces07.tga \n\n* Removed * \n\nEQUI_JournalTextWnd.xml","content_hash":"f561c8b2bf09bde27ed9f0dba082f99ffd0ab724f7684939b23bbcda3d6faead","source_files":["patches-2003-2.txt","patches_1999-2008_combined.md","patches_1999-2010_combined.txt"],"source_titles":["August 26, 2003"],"source_url":null,"source_urls":[],"occurrence_count":3,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"8ffc0fe84009e649bd07ed5ceaf0558a8f0fae3fa49307f01dbee98beb83e687","filename":"patches_1999-2008_combined.md","adapter":"markdown","source_offset":521343,"item_index":null,"heading":"August 26, 2003","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"markdown","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"d75e30a74267ff0feb624d1c18352dce28ab8c8a9aacda2c5cf148747f24a895","filename":"patches_1999-2010_combined.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":537293,"item_index":null,"heading":"August 26, 2003","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"6c110efffbf22ffb9235169311dd4355066446f24fb7840e7161089b93881c4a","filename":"patches-2003-2.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":19967,"item_index":null,"heading":"August 26, 2003","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false}],"year_inferred":false,"sequence":1,"slug":"2003-08-26-1","id":"2003-08-26-1"},{"patch_date":"2003-08-19","effective_date":"2003-08-19","display_date":"August 19, 2003 10:00 pm","title":"August 19, 2003 10:00 pm","year":2003,"month":8,"kind":"live","era":"EverQuest Live","expansion":"The Legacy of Ykesha","expansion_code":"the-legacy-of-ykesha","categories":[{"slug":"expansions","label":"Expansions"}],"sections":["Lost Dungeons of Norrath Downloads","the files in a few easy steps"],"change_count":6,"word_count":307,"summary":"Lost Dungeons of Norrath Downloads ** If you ever plan on ordering or buying Lost Dungeons, we recommend starting the downloads now.

Encounter never before seen \nmonsters that prowl the halls of these dungeons, waiting to challenge \nany explorer brave enough to venture in. \n\nIn this expansion, players are introduced to several exciting new \nconcepts in adventuring through the world of EverQuest. After joining \nthe Wayfarers Brotherhood, you and your group undertake perilous new \nadventures into the recently unearthed Lost Dungeons of Norrath. These \nnew adventures offer many benefits, including a clearly defined goal, \nthe ability to play and make progress in a couple hours per adventure, \nand the confidence that you can set a time to meet your friends and \nhave a dungeon fully available for you right away - no competition and \nno waiting! \n\nAdditionally, one of the most important gameplay improvements we've \nmade in Lost Dungeons of Norrath is the introduction of personalized \ndungeon adventures for single groups. When you and your group receive \nan adventure, you're provided with a full dungeon exclusively for your \nown use. There's no need to worry that you're competing against others \nto reach the same goal, or that someone might already be camping there. \nAll the focus is on having fun, which allows you to get lost in the \nadventuring and fighting to accomplish your objective. The challenge is \nthe dungeons themselves - if you can best the Lost Dungeons, you \ndeserve the rewards. \n\nLost Dungeons of Norrath breaks the mold of traditional zones by \nallowing every zone in the expansion to provide adventures for all \ngroups between levels 20 and 65. Each time you embark on a new \nadventure, you're sent to one of 48 distinct dungeon zones, each \ncustomized with challenging monsters and traps tailored to the level of \nyour group.

But \neven his burning breath and power have their limits. Rumor has it that \nthere is wealth and danger in locations even further below the boiling \nlands than Lord Nagafen can reach. These tales have been spreading like \nripples on a calm lake, and their point of origin appears to be an \nupstart barbarian named Morden. Some say that he's already delved these \nfabled caverns and taken what there was of value. Other say that he \ncouldn't have carried it all off by himself. But most say that he's a \nrogue, a teller of tales, and not to be trusted. Will you discover the \ntruth and brave the heat, or will you sit beside your cozy campfire and \nlisten to stories? \n\nThis new adventure zone will only be around for a while, so you may \nwant to visit soon. \n\n** Spells ** \n\n- Summoned Burning Affliction focus items added - Mages have four new \nspells, Summon Wooden Bracelet, Summon Stone Bracelet, Summon Iron \nBracelet, and Summon Steel Bracelet. The bracelets summoned provide the \nBurning Affliction effect for DoT spells. \n- Summoned container spells updated - The Quiver of Marr, Bandoleer of \nLuclin and the Pouch of Quellious now appear filled with the \nappropriate item (for example, the Quiver of Marr now appears with six \nstacks of arrows). Also, these items should all be exactly the same, so \nthe quiver function should work properly. \n- Mass Enchant spells corrected - The mass enchant spells for \nAdamantite, Brellium, Mithril and Steel now create the 5 enchanted \nblocks that they should. \n- Illusion: Guktan is available - This is an illusion spell for the new \nFroglok models. \n- Illusion: Scaled Wolf is available - This is an illusion spell for \nthe Scaled Wolf seen in Kunark. \n- Tiny Companion - The spell scroll for this spell is no longer No \nDrop. \n- Dooming Darkness no longer overwrites Cascading Darkness. \n\n** Items ** \n\n- Moss Covered Hood - This item can now be equipped by all classes. \n- Silk String - This item is now stackable. \n\n** Trade Skills ** \n\n- New Fletching recipes added - We've added several new Karana-only \nfletching recipes to help round out that skill. \n\n** Quests and Zones ** \n\n- Halls of Betrayal - Corrected an error with some of the quest item \ndrops in this zone. \n- Plane of Time - The events in Plane of Time B now remember the \nprogress your raid has made through the zone when you leave and will \nrestore you to the same state when you return. \n- Kagazz will respond when you ask him about fasteners. \n- Experience in city zones updated - Some time around the release of \nPlanes of Power we reduced the experience gain in some city zones. The \nexperience gained from quests in those zone has been increased. \n- Ogre newbie quests - Added a weapon quest for young ogres. \n- Iksar Necromancer Spell Vendors - The Iksar necromancer spell vendors \nhave moved and are a lot closer to the necromancer guild. This should \nmake it easier for new necromancers to find these vendors and will \nhopefully boost their sales. \n\n** Miscellaneous ** \n\n- Spell book bug - Corrected a bug that was causing characters to be \nrandomly forced to stand up when in their spell book. \n- Client crash information - If your game crashes on the client side, a \ndialogue box will come up asking if you'd like to send us the \ninformation about the crash. This information may help us pinpoint \nproblems and make it easier to fix them. Only information relevant to \nthe crash, your character name, server name and the zone you were in \nwill be sent. \n\n** Fan Faire ** \n\nChicago Fan Faire is sneaking up on us!

This \nis a great chance to revisit these zones. \n\n- Chardok - Treachery and lies are not uncommon in the court of the \nOverking. But there are some unusual rumors being told by some unusual \nadventurers. Some say that there is strife within the council of the \nOverking, and that heroes may find adventure there while that strife \nlasts. OOC: We're introducing a new zone and a new zone type. The Halls \nof Betrayal is a \"pocket zone\", and new type of zone for EverQuest. It \nwill exist for a short time to be part of the storyline, and then will \nbe gone. So if you're going to see it, now is the time. \n\n- Grieg's End revamp going to Legends - The redesign includes new \nencounters, items, traps, and events that make the zone a challenge for \nthe experience group, with plenty of events for a raid group. \n\n- Plane of Earth B - we have removed the Call of the Hero restrictions \nin this zone. \n\n- Rallos Zek - the Warlord will now kick anyone out of the zone that is \non his hate list and is not in a valid raid greater then 20 people in \nsize. This should prevent single players being able to attack him and \ngrief other players who are making a valid attempt at him. This is in \naddition to the previous limitations of having only one raid allowed to \nattack him at any given time. \n\n- Increased Experience - We have increased the experience modifier in \nthe Tower of Solusek Ro, Halls of Honor, The Temple of Marr, and the \nLair of Terris Thule. \n\n- Bastion of Thunder - The mini-bosses in Bastion of Thunder no longer \nspawn immediately after the zone comes up. \n\n** Tradeskills ** \n\n- Tradeskill chance of failures changed - The higher your skill is over \nthe trivial of the combine, the less likely you are to fail with a \ncombine. This is a reduction on the chance to always fail. \n\n- Stackable - Ice Burrower Silk, Pie Tins and Muffin Tins are now \nstackable. \n\n** Spells ** \n\n- New Imbue, Enchant, and Thicken spells - New Imbue, Enchant, and \nThicken spells have been added that create five magical items rather \nthan just one. These spells require five components and take longer to \ncast and use more mana. \n\n- Damage Over Time Spell Foci - Extended Affliction has been changed to \nBurning Affliction, which causes DoT spells to do more damage instead \nof having a longer duration. \n\n- Enthrall spells - Enthrall spells will not un-stun the target when \nthey wear off if there are other enthrall spells on that target. Also, \nwhen an enthrall spell breaks due to damage it will now remove all \nEnthrall spells, not just the first one it finds. \n\n- Ferocity - We have removed the component requirement for Ferocity. \n\n- Kindle - We have added a new Magician spell to the game called \nKindle. \n\n- Force of Akera - We have added a new Paladin spell to the game called \nForce of Akera. \n\n- Burnout V - this spell should now stack with the Shielding line of \nspells. \n\n- New Spell levels for Clarity line - Boon of the Clear Mind is now a \nlevel 44 spell, Clarity II is now a level 52 spell and Gift of Pure \nThought is now level 56. \n\n- Area of Effect spells - AoE spells that do not affect your group in \nPvP no longer affect your Raid in PvP either. \n\n- Direct Damage spell messages - Striking the killing blow with a \ndirect damage spell will no longer show a double cast on the spell \nmessage. \n\n- Target Group Buff - TGB will no longer work with any illusions. \n\n- Illusion - With Permanent Illusion, Levitation effects will no longer \nbe stripped when zoning and gnome enchanters with a large-size illusion \nwill no longer return to gnome size after zoning. In general, \ncharacters that are under the effect of a size-changing illusion should \nbe seen properly by everyone. \n\n- Song Spam - Bards should see less spam when they hit low level PCs \nwith their high level songs. \n\n- Treeform - This spell should now work in Luclin outdoor zones. \n\n- Draught of Lightning - We have added a new Wizard spell to the game \ncalled Draught of Lightning. \n\n** Items ** \n\n- Bards Using Components - Bards using right-click items with a casting \ntime greater than 0 will now expend any required components. \n\n- Ornate Armor Molds - These molds are more readily available. \n\n- Spellshield - Spellshield items now reduces spell damage by a \npercentage rather than a fixed amount. \n\n- Strikethrough and Stun Resist - You will now receive a message when \nStrikethrough and Stun Resist work. \n\n** Quests ** \n\n- Newbie Quests - Erudites, Trolls, Ogres and Barbarians now have \nquests in their newbie areas similar to those implemented for all other \nraces. This completes the updated newbie quests for all races. \n\n- Seana and Stefan Marsinger - These two will be clearer when giving \ntheir quest requests, and will return them if you hand them to the \nwrong Marsinger. \n\n- Bors Wharhammer - He will be checking level instead of flags as a \nrequirement for his quests to bring him in-line with the flag removals \nfor the lower tier planes. \n\n** Alternate Advancement ** \n\n- Frenzied Burnout - this ability has been changed to better stack with \nthe Burnout spells. The attack speed portion of the spell has been \nreduced in percentage (it hastes the pet much less), but changed to a \n\"bard\" haste which will stack with Burnout V. The strength bonus has \nalso been decreased but made to stack with that of Burnout V. \n\n** Skills ** \n\n- Sneak - Sneak will now work under water. \n\n- Instill Doubt - Instill Doubt will now work if the Monk is using his \nother skills. Previously, use of other skills such as a kick would \ncause Instill Doubt to fail. \n\n** Interface ** \n\n- Camera - We have added the ability to bind cameras to keys. This will \nallow players to hit one key to switch to a desired camera rather than \nhaving to cycle through the F9 camera chain. This can be changed in the \nOptions window (Alt-O) under the Keyboard tab (select \"camera\" from the \nlist). \n\n- Auto-inventory - Items right-clicked off your corpse will now be \nplace into your inventory in the correct order. \n\n- Spell Favorites - Creating a spell favorite name that matches a name \nthat already exists will cause the new favorite to be saved over the \nold (whereas before it would create a second list with the same name). \n\n- Random name generator - Asking for a name should no longer result in \na name that will be rejected due to duplication. Note: names can still \nbe rejected by GM's. \n\n- Bow Graphics - Bows that have been autoequipped will now display a \ngraphic. \n\n- Raids - The creation of a group will now work from inside a raid. \n\n- New Filters - We've added a Melee Warnings filter. It will filter out \n\"cannot see your target\" and \"cannot hit them from here\" messages, \nalong with other such melee warnings. \n\n- Spell category lists - We moved a few of the Necromancer spells \naround on the category lists (from right-clicking spell gems) to make \nmore sense. \n\n** Miscellaneous ** \n\n- Updated character creation descriptions - Right-clicking the class, \nrace or statistic buttons while in the character creation screen will \ndisplay a detailed explanation of the item clicked. \n\n- Clicking on corpses - Right-clicking on a PC corpse other than your \nown will no longer make a character visible. \n\n- Mounts - Fixed a bug with mounts showing up with incorrect Luclin \nmodel settings.

After all, this is a Massively Multiplayer game.\n\nPrior to this update groups gained a 2% to 20% experience bonus for \nhaving two to six members.\n\nAs of today this bonus has increased to range from 20% to 80% for \nhaving two to five members. When a group adds a sixth member, the 80% \nbonus remains, but the experience gained is only divided by 5 before \nbeing distributed. The sixth group member no longer causes the \nexperience gain to be divided by 6.\n\nPlanes of Power zones had an increased experience award above and \nbeyond those of most other zones. Because of these new dramatic \nimprovements to group experience gains, we will be reducing the zone-\nspecific experience bonus for Planes of Power zones a bit. As long as \ncharacter is grouped with at least one other in these zones, they will \nsee an improvement in experience gain over the old system. The one down \nside to the new system is that there will be a small decrease in \nexperience for those who do not group, and only for those who do so in \nPlanes of Power zones.\n\n** Experience System Change - Level 60+ **\n\nIn addition to the above changes, we have increased the range of NPC \nlevels that give a character experience after they reach level 60. This \nwill open up many of the \"old world\" zones to players previously \nrestricted to Planes of Power zones for experience gain. The range of \nNPCs that will be \"blue\" to a level 65 character has been increased as \nfar as level 50, with the \"light blue\" range extending to level 45. The \nbest experience gains, however, are still for fighting things around \nand above your level. This should open up areas for high level \ncharacters in groups and solo.\n\n** Interface **\n\n- Shared Bank Vault - We've added two shared bank slots to the \ninterface. These extra bank slots can be accessed by any character on \nthe same account and server. No-Drop and No Rent items can't be placed \nin these bank slots, and only one of any specific Lore item can exist \nin the shared bank at any time.\n\n- Spell Context Menus - This is a new interface menu that will make \nmemorizing spells less tedious. To access the spell menu, just right-\nclick an empty spell gem. This will open a list of spell categories. \nPoint your mouse at a category and a list of spells will be displayed. \nSelect a spell from that list to memorize it in that slot. Your \ncharacter will sit down, memorize the spell and stand back up.\n\n- Spell Favorites - Spell favorites are an easy way to memorize a full \nset of eight spells without the tedious book searching. Right-clicking \non the spellbook icon in your spell window will open up the spell \nfavorites menu. You will be able to save your current spell lineup as a \nfavorite, delete a favorite or memorize all the spells in one of your \nalready saved spell sets. You can save as many as ten sets of spell \nfavorites. As with the new spell context menus mentioned above, this \nwill not replace the spellbook, it is meant to make memorizing large \nnumbers of spells more convenient.\n\n- Spell Descriptions - We have expanded the spell description window. \nAlong with the information that has always been available, we have \nadded an explanation about what the spell does in general that includes \ndamage and duration when appropriate. You can see these new \ndescriptions by right-clicking and holding on the spell scroll, the \nspell gem in your Spells window, or the spell icon in your spellbook.\n\n- New Camera - We've added a new camera mode to the game. Lovingly \ndubbed the EQ Cam, it uses the mouse wheel to allow you to zoom away \nfrom your character into a \"chase\" camera. This only works from first \nperson mode (the default view). Using the mouse wheel you can determine \nthe distance of the camera from your character, or to zoom back into \nfirst person mode. When in the chase mode, mouselook turns the \ncharacter and camera together and you can change the pitch of the \ncamera using the mouse.\n\n- NPC Names - Many NPCs will be displaying additional titles to make it \nclearer what their job is. For example, an NPC that sells tailoring \nsupplies may have the title [Tailor Supplies] under their name. This \nwill help folks find the proper merchant. It's analogous to them \nhanging out their shingle.\n\n- Rare Character Select Crash - Using the arrow keys to try to change \nthe selected character at the character select screen when there were \nno characters on the account was causing people to crash out of the \ngame. That's fixed now.\n\n- Guild Message of the Day - Using certain HTML codes when setting up a \nGuild Message of the Day was causing all members of the guild to crash. \nWhile this may have been amusing for pranks on your guild, we still \ndecided to fix it.\n\n** Spells **\n\n- Spell level limits now enforced - Some high level spells cannot be \ncast on characters under a certain level. In the past a caster could \nget around this level restriction when casting a group version of a \nspell by targeting a higher level group member, and the spell would \ntake effect on the whole group, regardless of their level. That \nloophole has been closed. We're sorry if you have grown accustomed to \nthe system working this way, but those level restrictions are important \nto the integrity of lower level gameplay.\n\n- Incineration and Conglaciation of Bones - Both of these spells should \nnow crit and stack (when cast by different casters).\n\n- Divine Intervention - This spell should now be reporting the amount \nof healing it delivers.\n\n- Healing Messages - The target of a healing spell will now get a \nmessage telling them the caster's name and the amount of healing they \nreceive.\n\n- Reporting Damage Over Time - Damage over Time (DoT) done to NPCs will \nnow be reported to the caster every time it does damage. These messages \ncan be filtered in the Options window.\n\n- Boon of the Garou - The level restriction for this spell has been \nremoved. We have also fixed a bug with the spell that would prevent it \nfrom being cast on target that are not on a horse if the enchanter is \non horseback (spell still cannot affect those on horseback).\n\n- Wake of Karana - To improve the usefulness of this spell, we have \nlowered the recast time from 90 seconds to 15 seconds.\n\n- Beastlord Warders - Beastlords will once again be able to summon \ntheir warders in the Plane of Sky. Sorry for the delay in getting this \none fixed properly.\n\n- Familiars - Familiars will no longer attempt to equip items. This was \ncausing them to try to wear weapons inside their heads, which probably \nisn't a good thing for them to do.\n\n- Spirit spell line - We have added +75 dexterity to the effects of \nSpirit of Flame, Spirit of Rellic, and Spirit of Snow.\n\n- Spell stacking and blocking - Changed the following spell lines to \ncause them to bounce off of each other. Each line should block \neverything from the other line, but still be overwritten by spells of \nthe same line.\n\nSpiritual Strength\nSpiritual Brawn\nSpiritual Vigor\n\nStrength of Tunare\nStrength of Nature\n\nBrell's Mountainous Barrier\nBrell's Stalwart Shield\nBrell's Steadfast Aegis\n\n- Translocation spells - Fixed a bug with translocation spells. If a \nsecond translocation spell was cast on a character before he had \naccepted the first, both would fail.\n\n- Spell casting pets - In the past, pets were restricted to casting \nspells of level 20 and below. We have given them access to higher level \nspells. You may want to be careful with them until you get used to \ntheir new abilities. \n\n- Drunken Riders - We fixed an odd bug that allowed people who were \nextremely drunk to cast spells without mana cost while on a horse. Yes, \ncrazy bugs like that actually happen. :)\n\n** Zones **\n\n- Droga and Nurga - The mines of Nurga have been inhabited by crafty \nGoblins and stolid Burynai for many long years, digging and slaving \naway under the earth. It's time to shake them up! The redesign for \nthese zones are now on the Legends server, Stormhammer. The mines of \nNurga are a fun zone for characters of levels about 40 to 55. The \nTemple of Droga accommodates characters around 50th to 65th level. Both \nzones will have some new events and quest, while retaining the distinct \nfeel of the zones.\n\n- Veksar - Since the rediscovery of the lands of Kunark, there have \nbeen rumors springing from the ancient lore of the Iksar. Most of those \nrumors remain unfounded, as gaining access to the lore of the insular \nIksar is no easy task. One of the most persistent legends is about a \ncity that lies buried under the Lake of Ill Omen. That city was called \nVeksar, and it is up to you to discover the tale of its fate.\n\n- Planes of Power access - Planes of Power has provided us with \nvaluable insight into the group and guild dynamics that are involved in \nlarge scale games. The way that we had expected guilds to advance \nthrough the story of Planes of Power has become a problem for some \nguilds as some members have fallen behind and found it difficult to \ncatch up. Obviously this was not our intention. We want people to play \nwith their friends and guild mates.\n\nTo correct this issue, we will be allowing characters to enter the \nfollowing Planes of Power zones by meeting a simple level requirement:\n\nLevel 55 and over\nPlane of Storms\nPlane of Torment\nPlane of Valor\nCrypt of Decay\n\nLevel 62 and over\nBastion of Thunder\nHalls of Honor\n\nCharacters that don't meet the level requirement may still enter these \nzones using the existing flags, and raids may still bring additional \nunflagged or lower level characters with them. All other planes with \nflag or story requirements for entry will still require those flags, \nand those flags can still be obtained as they always have.\n\nThis will make the majority of Planes of Power zones available to \ncharacters over the minimum level, and will allow their guilds to \ntravel and adventure together in the planes. We understand that those \nthat have already earned the entry flags for these zones have put some \neffort into that accomplishment. We will be giving a reward to those \nthat have done so, though you'll have to wait to see what that reward \nis.\n\nIf you have completed the requirements for flags for these zones, you \nmay wish to visit Gram Dunnar. Part of the reward for gaining entry \nflags is in the form of experience. \n\n+++ Before speaking to Gram Dunnar, be sure you have your experience \ndistribution set as you'd like it between standard and alternate advancement experience. +++\n\n- Great Divide - The Plane of Knowledge portal in the Great Divide will \nnow be available when the Ring War is in progress.\n\n- Bastion of Thunder - We have upgraded the loot available from many of \nthe mini-bosses in the Bastion of Thunder to make the reward more \ninline with the risk.\n\n- Sol Ro's Tower - They look like frogs, hop like frogs and now they \neven react to spells like frogs. Flame Frogs are now flagged as \nanimals.\n\n- Rallos Zek encounter - Rallos Zek will remove anyone from the zone \nthat attacks him if they are not part of the raid that has him engaged. \nEven in war, there are rules to be followed.\n\n** Items **\n\n- Tradeskill item flag - There is a new flag on items. When viewing the \ninformation about an item, if you see that it has a Tradeskill flag, it \nis an item that can be used in a tradeskill recipe. This isn't to \nclearly spell out every item that is used in every tradeskill recipe. \nThe intent is to assist those who are finding items that do not already \nhave an obvious use, by letting them know that the item is used in a \ntradeskill recipe, somewhere.\n\n- LoY \"Fine Steel\" - Many of the more commonly dropped weapons in the \nLegacy of Ykesha zones were a bit too powerful for the ease and level \nneeded to get them. Some of the most out of line items were the \nHarpoon, Luggald Trident, and Luggald Dagger. We've decided that it is \nnecessary to tune them down a bit.\n\n- The Hollow Acrylia Obelisk - This is the old Acrylia key. It has been \nchanged into a charm. This charm can be used by anyone, not just those \nthat own LoY.\n\n- Bows - The Longbow of the Grimlings and the Bow of Gloaming have both \nbeen given ranges. They can now be used properly.\n\n- The Burning Flame Shield - This item had the wrong resist modifiers. \nIt now has a +30 fire resistance and a -10 cold resistance.\n\n- Bazaar Search - Non-instrument items with instrument modifiers will \nnow show up in instrument type searches in the Bazaar.\n\n- Ornate Stone Medicine Totem - This item can now be equipped.\n\n- Storm Reaper Thorn Machete - This newbie Halfling quest weapon is now \nflagged as magical.\n\n- Charm of the Brotherhood - This item will now give a bonus when \ngrouped with others of either the same class or race.\n\n- Dagger of Distraction - This item can no longer be used by Monks.\n\n- Edge of Eternity - Beastlords and monks can no longer use this item.\n\n- Veil of Lost Hopes and Orb of Clinging Death - The casting times on \nboth of these items has been lowered.\n\n- Magi`Kot's Pants of Convergence - The effect on this item has been \nchanged to summon a Rod of Mystical Transvergance.\n\n- Cloak of the Falling Skies - The focus effect this item has changed \nto Preservation of Solusek\n\n- The Wristguard of Keen Vision - This item is now useable by int. \ncasters.\n\n- The Mask of Conceptual Energy - This item is now useable by priests.\n\n** Alternate Advancement **\n\n- Lifeburn - This ability would cause an undue amount of aggro to be \ngenerated because it would bring the caster to an extremely low number \nof hit points, making them look like tasty targets to enemies nearby. \nTo lessen this problem, Lifeburn will no longer reduce the caster to 10 \nhit points, but to about one fourth of the caster's hit points. This \nshould prevent the additional agro generated while retaining the risk \nfor using the ability.\n\n- Feigned Minion - The Child of Bertoxxulous pet will no longer cast \nbuff spells to break his feign when under the Feigned Minion effect.\n\n** Quests and Tradeskills **\n\n- Bankers - There were a few quests that required giving an item to a \nbanker. When we recently removed the ability for characters to give \nitems to bankers to help prevent mistakenly losing items, those quests \nbecame unavailable. We have moved those quests to new NPCs. If you see \nany other quests that ask you to give something to a banker, please use \n/bug and report it to us.\n\n- Newly Stackable Items - Valor Crystals, Ceramic Linings, Holgresh Fur \nand Casks are now stackable. Also, Valor Crystals can be sold to \nvendors. \n\n- Sewer Catfish - These unappetizing fish have begun to appear in \nCabilis.\n\n- Klok Foob - Will now accept a Catfish Croak Sandwich.\n\n** Changes for New Characters **\n\n- Newbie Starting Locations - We've modified all locations where new \ncharacters start to make them a bit more convenient for the new player. \nThey should all start very near their guild masters.\n\n- Nudging - New characters will be given a text message to encourage \nthem to hand in their newbie note to their guild master. For new \nplayers, this is one of the key things to get them involved in \ngameplay, and one of the easiest to overlook.\n\n- Guild Masters - To help guide new characters, Guild Masters now take \na more active role in helping out new recruits by directing them to \nsome starting points for quests.\n\n- Quests - There are even more quests in the newbie zones, most of them \nrevolving around the pests that seem to inhabit even the grandest \ncities.\n\n** Miscellaneous **\n\n- We are working on an update to the Luclin player character model \nanimations. This will not be a complete revamp of all the animations, \nbut will address some of the most common concerns. However, in the mean \ntime you may see some unusual animations, particularly when shorter PCs \nare running.\n\n** UI File Changes **\n\nNOTE: In order to see the new Shared Bank slots, you will need to use \nthe default bank window, or modify your custom bank window to include \nthe new slots.\n\nEQUI_Optionswnd.xml\nEQUIhelpwnd.xml\nBankwnd.xml\nBigBankwnd.xml\nHelp.html\n\nNoted Later: The reward for planar progression has been added.

At its core, the idea is to positively reinforce \ngrouping. There should never be any penalty to adding \"that sixth \nperson over there,\" whatever class they may be, into your group. That \nis exactly the type of behavior that should be rewarded.\n\nIn a massively multi-player game, any mechanic that penalizes those who \ngroup is one that we need to take a serious look at. While there are \ndefinite benefits to forming \"well balanced\" groups in terms of damage, \ntanking, healing, and support, there shouldn't be an active penalty to \nthose who cannot find groups of \"optimal\" balance.\n\nAs it stands in EverQuest, groups gain a 2% to 20% experience bonus, \nwhich we refer to as the \"group bonus\", for having two to six members. \nIn practice, however, this has never been much of a bonus, even in the \ncase of a full group, given that the experience was already being \ndivided six ways.\n\nIn the past, we had also attempted to reward people for adventuring in \nthe more challenging Planes of Power zones by making those zones give a \nbetter rate of experience.\n\nAs of this update, groups now gain 20% to 80% \"group bonus\" experience \nfor having two to five members. \n\nFull, six-person, groups now see an additional bonus. Their experience \nis only divided five ways, yet they still gain the 80% \"group bonus.\" \nFor those who think in terms of pie charts, it amounts to a larger \npiece of a larger pie.\n\nAccordingly, the bonus inherent to Planes of Power zones will be \ndecreased slightly. However, as long as person is grouped with at least \none other, they will see an improvement in experience gain over the old \nsystem. The one down side to the new system is that there will be a \nslight decrease in experience for those who do not group, and only for \nthose who do so in Planes of Power zones.\n\nWe realize that we are, essentially, \"manufacturing\" a new type of \nexperience after a kill. As players, we also understand it is the \npeople who spend time in full groups who have to deal with the most \ninterruptions and setup time caused by organizing the extra people. It \nsimply makes sense to reward that extra time, especially if it means \nbringing more people together. After all, that's the whole point.\n\nWe look forward to seeing how these changes play out on Test Server.\n\n** Experience System Change - Level 60+ **\n\nIn addition to the above changes, we have increased the range of NPC \nlevels that give a person experience after they reach level 60. The \n\"blue to 65\" range has been increased as far as level 50, with the \n\"light blue\" range extending to level 45. The best benefits, however, \nare still for fighting things around and above your level. \n\nThe world of EverQuest, at this point in its history, is truly immense \nand full of the best and most interesting content and visuals out \nthere. Ideally, when a person logs on they should have a wide array of \nplaces in which to adventure. The addition of new content shouldn't \nentirely obsolete what already exists. Hopefully these changes will \nonce again make that the case.","content_hash":"842fd7fe3d33a9026e21c52f8997360ba4bcf3f16283f8e2c7f2b73ec8f3afda","source_files":["patches-2003-1.txt","patches_1999-2008_combined.md","patches_1999-2010_combined.txt"],"source_titles":["May 27, 2003"],"source_url":null,"source_urls":[],"occurrence_count":3,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"4ce0291f0d4541fa7f7467406a4116e8bd7aa84dbebd9db4b99d4fa6a06951bc","filename":"patches_1999-2008_combined.md","adapter":"markdown","source_offset":479627,"item_index":null,"heading":"May 27, 2003","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"markdown","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"1acf78a9982a70bae93dec0f556d515d5076634a2c80915eb3270e714844efbb","filename":"patches_1999-2010_combined.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":494248,"item_index":null,"heading":"May 27, 2003","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"f88af3b9fc0f0a3e6a9367c8bd5d5c4a3186e2d0a70586e87547ffb99883f86c","filename":"patches-2003-1.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":85167,"item_index":null,"heading":"May 27, 2003","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false}],"year_inferred":false,"sequence":1,"slug":"2003-05-27-1","id":"2003-05-27-1"},{"patch_date":"2003-05-22","effective_date":"2003-05-22","display_date":"May 22, 2003","title":"May 22, 2003","year":2003,"month":5,"kind":"live","era":"EverQuest Live","expansion":"The Legacy of Ykesha","expansion_code":"the-legacy-of-ykesha","categories":[{"slug":"bug-fixes","label":"Bug Fixes"},{"slug":"classes","label":"Classes"},{"slug":"spells-aa","label":"Spells & AA"},{"slug":"zones-npcs","label":"Zones & NPCs"}],"sections":[],"change_count":0,"word_count":27,"summary":"Paladin AA Act of Valor Fixed a problem with Act of Valor.

If \nyou're brave enough, foolish enough, and if you can hold your breath, \nyou may be the right hero to explore Veksar.  Good luck!\n\n** Changes for New Players **\n\n- Maps for Newbie Zones for all Players - One of the biggest hurdles \nthat a new player has to overcome is learning their way around.  For \nthose of you that may have started your first character in Neriak, \nyoull know what that was like.  In order to help out the new player, \nweve enabled the Map window to make it available to all players if they \nare in a \"newbie zone.\n\n- Context Tips - In order to provide helpful information at the time a \nplayer needs it, we have added several context tips.  These tips will \npop up when a player uses a certain feature or a specific event occurs.  \nWe hope this will help our new players to more easily understand the \ngameplay and controls for EverQuest.  These tips may even be useful to \nlong time players.  However, if you wish, you can choose to turn off \nany specific tip, or turn off all of the tips using the check boxes in \nthe Context Tips window.  \n\n- Improved Help Information - The in game help files have been \nimproved.  They now contain much more information.  Hopefully most \nquestions you have about the game can be answered using help.\n\n- All New Characters now start with a weapon skill - In order to help \nthe new player that might forget to train with their weapon before \nheading out to defeat their first enemy (and even for those of us that \nhave been playing a while and still forget to do this), all new \ncharacters now start off with a skill of 5 in their primary weapon.\n\n- Taunt no longer requires training - Similarly, Taunt now works \nwithout being trained.  Characters still start out with a skill of 0, \nbut the skill can increase with use.\n\n- Packet Loss Meter is now Off by default - Due to the fact that the \npacket loss meter is often confusing to new players, it will be off by \ndefault.  You can toggle the packet loss meter using the F11 key.\n\n- New Message to prompt new players about the Help button - Weve added \na chat message that appears when a level 1 through 10 character logs in \nthat tells them to click the \"?\" button on the Window Selection toolbar \nif they need help.\n\n** Spells **\n\n- Divine Intervention Fix - Players have been reporting that Divine \nIntervention was not updating the hit points for the character every \ntime when cast, causing characters to die even though the spell seemed \nto have saved them.  We have been unable to reproduce the issue \nspecifically, but we have made some changes that should fix the \nproblem.  Please use /bug with details of the incident if you continue \nto see this problem.\n\n- Bard Epic Animations - Bards will no longer play instrument \nanimations when they have their epic equipped. No more stabbing \nyourselves in the head with your sword instead of playing a flute.\n\n- Healing Messages now include the name of the healer - In order to \nmake it clearer who has healed you, we have changed the message that \nyou receive when healed.  It will now include the name of the character \ncasting the healing spell:  \"Bob has healed you for 300 points of \ndamage.\n\n- Call of the Hero works in PoW - We have removed the restrictions to \nCall of the Hero in the Plane of Water.  In this particular zone we \ndont believe that the use of this spell needs to be restricted.\n\n- Fear Spell bug fix - Players have reported that when a player \ncharacter was affected by a Fear spell cast by an NPC, they would see \nthe character running away but the person affected would not actually \nflee.\n\n- Snare Line bug fix - Fixed an issue that was causing the Snare line \nof spells to fail on an NPC that is under the effects of a Fear spell.\n\n- Tricksters Augmentation group only - We changed Trickster's \nAugmentation to be group only to prevent folks from using it to grief \nother players.\n\n- LD Enchanters no longer cast Mem Blur - Enchanters that go linkdead \nwere sometimes casting Memory Blur and similar spells on their enemies.  \nThis could cause rather unpleasant results for his group or raid when \nthe NPC suddenly had a fresh hate list.  Linkdead enchanters will no \nlonger cast Memory Blur spells.\n \n- Blizzard animation fix - Blizzard was causing a casting animation to \ngo off with every wave, even if the caster was sitting.  Now Blizzard \nworks like most rain spells, and only triggers a casting animation when \nfirst cast.\n\n- Locked Spell Gem fix - We fixed a bug that was causing the use of a \nright-click item to refresh the spell gem in the first slot instantly, \nbut if that spell had a long recast it would render it useless until \nthe spell was forgotten and memorized again.\n\n- Mark of Kings upgrade - In order to make this spell more appealing \nthen its lower level counterpart, Mark of Karn, we have: increased the \nduration from 3.5 to 4 minutes, reduced the casting time from 3 to 2 \nseconds, reduced the mana cost from 170 to 75 and made the spell \nslightly less resistible.\n\n- Gravel Rain can now be cured - With its very long duration (30 \nminutes) it was a bit difficult that this spell could not be removed \nbefore the duration was over.  This is now a curse and can be cured.\n\n- Summoning a horse in bear form no longer causes you to lose the \nability to cast spells for a while.\n\n- Rathes Son - The innate ability of the focused version of this pet is \nnow less resistible.\n\n- Child of Bertoxxulous - This 65th level Necromancer pet has been \ngiven a boost.  Its offense has been increased to be in-line with that \nof the Legacy of Zek, and it now has the ability to use a power that is \nessentially the same as the spell Banshee Aura.\n\n- Spirit Call - These pets were running away from enemies when at low \nhealth. Pets should be far more loyal and willing to risk themselves \nfor their Shaman friends, so weve fixed it so that Shaman pets will no \nlonger run away.\n\n- Vampiric Embrace - Weve corrected a bug with this spell that would \nprevent the character from casting for a couple of seconds after the \nproc went off.\n\n- Stun Spells - The message on many stun-type spells have been changed \nto more accurately portray their effect on stun immune creatures.\n\n- Mana from Buffs - we have increased the maximum amount of mana that \ncan be gained through the use of buff spells.\n\n** Items **\n\n- Zoning and losing your buffs - There has been a long-standing problem \nthat could cause all of the buffs to be stripped from a character if \nthey zoned with fewer hit points than they had bonus hit points granted \nby items.  For example, if your character had only 10 hit points left \nwhen zoning, and had an item that granted +15 hit points, all of your \ncharacters buffs may have been stripped when you completed zoning.  We \nhave fixed this bug.  You should now retain your buffs in this \nsituation.\n\n- GM Baking Spoon - On Firiona Vie, the Grandmasters Baking Spoon was \nnot no-drop.  This allowed players to give out an unlimited number of \n100% weight reduction bags.  This obviously was not the intention for \nthat item, so we have made the Grandmasters Baking Spoon no drop on \nFiriona Vie.\n\n- Wooden Medicine Totem - This item can now be equipped.  It couldnt \nbefore.\n\n- Adjutant Saber - We removed the secondary notation on the item, since \nit was only usable by Shadowknights and Paladins, who couldnt use it in \ntheir secondary slot anyhow.\n\n- Cloak of the Dar Khura Hero - The effect on this item was listed in \nthe database as the wrong effect type.  The effect is now permanent.\n\n** NPCs **\n\n- NPCs returning bags empty - NPCs that return items that they do not \nneed were returning all containers empty, regardless of what was inside \nthe container. NPCs that refuse unusable items will now also return \nbags with their contents intact.\n\n- NPCs returning multiple items - If a character gave an NPC multiples \nof the same item, the NPC would only give back one of them if he did \nnot want them.  We have fixed this so that now those items will be \nreturned.  Such items will be stacked on your cursor.  Just click the \nitem that is on your cursor into your inventory and the next one will \nappear on your cursor.  Keep clicking them into your inventory until \nyou have them all back.  BE WARNED that any of these items that you \nhave not returned to your inventory will be lost if you zone or go \nlinkdead before you get them back into your inventory.\n\n- The Spirit of Rage - This undead gorilla is now flagged as undead.\n\n- Solusek Ros Guards - These guards will be much more attentive to \ntheir lord and will aid in his defense.\n\n- NPCs healing too much - We have corrected a bug that was causing some \nNPCs to regain hit points when they turned to run away.  The affected \nNPCs will be of all sorts and in many zones.\n\n- Giant Yellow Jackets - The chance to find a thorax on the corpses of \nthese creatures seemed too low, so we have increased it.\n\n** Zones **\n\n- Veeshans Peak - We have changed this zone to make it more appealing, \nparticularly for those playing with one or two groups.  We have removed \nthe restriction against using gate in this zone and modified the zone \npopulation.  Over all, the zone will be better to play in.\n\n- Acrylia Caverns - We have fixed an issue with the first two seals \nthat was causing the door to the 3rd seal to open without the 3rd seal \nspawning, and without the events being completed correctly.  Now the \ndoor will only open under proper win conditions, and whenever the door \nopens the 3rd seal should be available.\n\n- Plane of Nightmare - We have changed the logic for entry to the \nThelin Poxbourne event in Plane of Nightmare. When you talk to Thelin, \nhe will now remember your raid and only allow those of the same raid \ninto your maze. Only three groups maximum will be allowed through the \nportal into any one maze. If your group is not in a raid, he will allow \nthree non-raided groups through into the same maze. If there are three \nnon-raided groups in the maze and you try and get a fourth through, he \nwill act as any other raid would and tell you that he has already let \nenough people in the maze.\n\n- Planes of Water and Fire - We have changed some of the spells used by \nthe mini-bosses in these two zones.  They should be a little easier to \nresist now.\n\n- Halls of Honor - We have removed a recently added summoning ability \nfrom NPCs. We have introduced a less intrusive method of preventing the \nability to use area of effect abilities on huge groups of NPCs in the \nzone.\n\n- Bastion of Thunder - The tower bosses will now be dropping some loot \nevery time (rather than sometimes not dropping any) like the other \nPlanes of Power bosses.\n\n** Quests **\n\n- Added Honey Mush Bread to Cabilis Vendors - This is an item needed \nfor a quest that was unavailable.\n\n- Officers Cloak - If you have combined your Officer's Cloak in the \nSecurity Satchel or you wish to upgrade to the new Officer's Cloak of \nService, speak with Scout Derrin in Grimling Forest.\n\n-The Skull of Torment quest - This quest, in Kurn's Tower, should now \nwork.\n\n** Alternate Advancement **\n\n- Elemental Form - In order to make the Magician Elemental Form \nabilities a bit more useable, weve reduced the reuse time from 72 \nminutes to 15 minutes.\n\n- Alternate Advancement timers - We fixed a bug that allowed AA timers \nto be reset early.\n\n- Mass Group Buff - We have made this ability available to Beastlords.\n\n** Miscellaneous **\n\n- Characters getting stuck in the world - We have fixed a bug that \nwould cause a character to stay in game for extended periods of time \nafter going linkdead.  This bug was causing people to receive a 1018 \nerror because their character was still in the world and could prevent \nthem from logging back in for a long period of time.\n\n- Big Dwarves - Fixed a bug that was causing Dwarves that had their \nsize increased twice to start to see the insides of their faces while \nattacking.  This was making even the stoutest Dwarves a bit \nuncomfortable and self-conscious.\n \n- Tread water animation fix - We corrected a bug that would \noccasionally cause the treading water animation to stop animating.\n\n** Interface **\n\n- Hit Point percentages display in windows - The Target window, Player \nwindow and Group window now display hit point percentages.  This is \nsomething that many player created interfaces use and, considering the \npopularity of this feature, we've decided to add it to the default \ninterface.  In the Target and Group windows, the hit point percentages \nwill disappear if the appropriate target/groupmate does not exist\n\n- /report - We updated the text message given when you use the /report \nfeature to better reflect what text is actually attached to the report.\n\n- More Tips of the Day added - Weve updated the Tips of the Day with \nmore tips and cleaned up a few spelling errors with the existing tips.\n\n- Combining Stacks of items - Attempting to combine stacked items in a \ncontainer will no longer work.  The items must be separated first.  \nThis change will prevent items from being lost due to accidentally \ncombining with them stacked.  A dialogue will pop up, warning the \nplayer to separate the objects.\n\n- Bankers no longer take items - In order to help prevent people from \nlosing items by giving them to their banker instead of putting them \ninto their bank, players can no longer attempt to trade with bankers.  \nA message will tell you to right-click the banker if you wish use your \nbank.\n\n- Guild Management - The Guild Management window will now take your \nsetting for \"show offline\" into account when first displaying the \nwindow.  The delimiter used in the file created when the \"Dump\" button \nis pressed has been changed to a [Tab] from a comma, as commas were \ncausing confusion when used in the public and private notes.\n\n** Interface File Changes **\n\nTargetwindow.xml\nPlayerwindow.xml\nGroupwindow.xml","content_hash":"b8ad9b438430cc0a1e7b132bfc498b681d6fa34aa7b7d690e0b0c69f958e2afa","source_files":["patches-2003-1.txt","patches_1999-2008_combined.md","patches_1999-2010_combined.txt"],"source_titles":["May 14, 2003 3:00 am"],"source_url":null,"source_urls":[],"occurrence_count":3,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"afeaeeb48e2389284260b76316e4f3dc599f837769609d45a5f4dba3936bc786","filename":"patches_1999-2008_combined.md","adapter":"markdown","source_offset":464919,"item_index":null,"heading":"May 14, 2003 3:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"markdown","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"97dab07a994ab854b3cd82d98d1ec730e4be15443b102f4d1b871a326dfe97a2","filename":"patches_1999-2010_combined.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":479346,"item_index":null,"heading":"May 14, 2003 3:00 am","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"062798d0905604689ed4ff789da32eaddb93bf07dcd88bd2278eb84ac9162e13","filename":"patches-2003-1.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":70265,"item_index":null,"heading":"May 14, 2003 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":"2003-05-14-1","id":"2003-05-14-1"},{"patch_date":"2003-04-30","effective_date":"2003-04-30","display_date":"April 30, 2003","title":"April 30, 2003","year":2003,"month":4,"kind":"live","era":"EverQuest Live","expansion":"The Legacy of Ykesha","expansion_code":"the-legacy-of-ykesha","categories":[{"slug":"servers","label":"Servers"}],"sections":[],"change_count":2,"word_count":58,"summary":"We've taken the opportunity while the servers are unavailable for maintenance to update a couple of things.

We've added this window to provide helpful insight to new \nplayers, and perhaps a few tips for experienced players as well. \n\n** Gameplay ** \n\n- Any character 10th level and under that attempts to attack a \n'red' /con NPC will receive a warning about the danger of such an \naction. \n- Low level characters now memorize and scribe spells much faster. \n- Guards in Steamfont, Misty Thicket, Butcherblock, Nektulos, East \nFreeport and West Freeport should be less likely to run through the \nnewbie zone destroying the wildlife \n- Improved the respawn rate for monsters in Steamfont, Misty Thicket, \nButcherblock, Nektulos, East Freeport and West Freeport. In these zones \nthey were respawning less frequently than in all other newbie zones. \n- Added food and bag merchants to the newbie yards of Steamfont, East \nFreeport, West Freeport, Butcherblock and Nektulos. \n\n** Spells ** \n\n- Fixed a bug that was causing damage shields to assign the credit for \ntheir damage to the wrong person. \n- Fixed a bug that caused a short delay in the hit point updates from \nhealing spells. \n- Removed Beastlords from the list of classes that can use Strength of \nStone. They were never intended to get it, as they have a better spell \nof the same type at the same level (Furious strength). \n- Pets will no longer disappear when the pet owner casts a cancel magic \ntype spell on the PC that the pet is attacking. \n- Fixed a bug that would allow PC's to be attacked by PC controlled \npets (in non-PvP situations). \n- Talisman of Alacrity now works on the group and not just the caster. \nIt also has the proper icons now. \n- Modified the text messages on many stun spells to prevent some \nconfusion with their effect on stun immune mobs. The message has been \nchanged from \"You have been stunned\" to \"You are struck by a sudden \nforce.\" \n- Torment of Argli no longer overwrites Torment of Scio. \n- The Lich series no longer conflicts with other DoT effects. This \naffects Dark Pact, Allure of Death, Call of Bones, Lich, Demi Lich, \nArch Lich, Deathly Temptation, Pact of Hate, Ancient: Master of Death \nand Seduction of Saryrn. \n- The Flame Lick line of spells no longer overwrites hit point buffs \nsuch as Valor and Skin like diamond. This affects Flame Lick, \nImmolation, Breath of Ro and Immolation of Ro. \n- Changed the name of the druid spell Fury of Ro to Immolation of Ro to \navoid confusion with the focus effect Fury of Ro. \n- Changed the icon for Kragg's Mending to a heart icon to match other \nHeal spells. \n- Froglok illusion now changes the character's perspective to the \nproper height. \n- Night's Dark Terror has regained its Scarecrow illusion. \n- Added sounds to several spells that were lacking them. \n- The cost of the Fuligan Soulstone of Innoruuk has been cut in half. \n\n** Zones ** \n\n- Acrylia Caverns, Hollowshade Moor and Grimling Forest have been \nrevamped. We have updated the content in these zones to more accurately \nrepresent their design intentions and to address concerns voiced by \nplayers. \n- If you have had an issue with your Plane of Earth B keys, please \nspeak with Muzzrap again and he should be able to straighten things \nout. Please make sure that you have the raid group that you want to get \nkeyed set up and by your side when you do this. \n- The Trial of Fire event will be much less likely to damage people not \nactually in the trial. \n- We've made a pretty extensive pathing update to the Lake of Ill Omen \nand Beholder, along with several fixes to specific cases in several \nzones. \n- Fixed a bug with the Xegony encounter in Plane of Air. \n- The spires in the Dreadlands are once again sending folks to Luclin. \n- Protectors of Growth now actually protect the Plane of Growth again. \nBeware. \n\n** The Hollow Acrylia Obelisk ** \n\nDo not destroy the Hollow Acrylia Obelisk! Due to the revamp of the \nAcrylia Caverns, this key will no longer serve its original purpose. We \ndo understand the difficulty of obtaining this key, and we don't want \nto see that effort lost. We will be looking into a way to allow this \nkey to retain its value, so don't destroy it. \n\n** Items ** \n\n- Items with recommended levels now display any reduced AC component \nvalue in red. \n- Changed the usable race to Froglok on several of the Shin initiates \narmor quest intermediate pieces. \n- Giant Field Rat whiskers are about twice as common as they were. \n- The Ivory Hilted Cleaver can now be used in the secondary slot (for \nthose that can dual-wield). \n- The Ornate Broadsword is no longer listed as usable in the secondary \nslot, since it is Paladin only and can't actually be used there. \n- These items can no longer be worn by Frogloks (they were never \nintended for use by Frogloks): Fright Forged Helm, Mundane Helm, \nMundane Shield, Mundane Mask, Dread Forged Shield and Terror Forged \nMask \n- Murph's Minin' Pick no longer lists Clerics as a class that can use \nit, since they could not. \n- Bone Bladed Scimitar no longer lists Beastlords as a class that can \nuse it. \n- Cracked Bone Shinguards now have a visible graphic when worn. \n- Sharkbone Plated Shoulderpads effect is now \"worn\" rather than \n\"combat\". \n- Stone Etched Mace now displays +135 mana instead of 1135 mana \n- Extended Affliction III now works on spells with a 30 second duration \n(lowered from 36 seconds), so it now functions with Sermon of \nPenitence. \n- Fireworks have casting sounds and Gnomish fireworks will no longer \ncause zones to crash. \n- Compasses once again display the direction you are facing when you \nright-click and hold. \n- The Hammer of Exoneration can now be used by Erudites and Dark Elves. \n\n** NPCs ** \n\n- Half-Elf bandits are no longer treated as merchants (so they will now \nleave corpses). \n- A Feral Amalgam is now a plant. \n- Now only one Natasha Whitewaters can exist at a time. \n- Bloodmaw is a little more attentive to his surroundings. \n- Pets no longer attack Tylis Newleaf when he teleports your group. \n- Corrected a bug with AE rampage that caused it to not attack everyone \nit should. \n\n** Quests ** \n\n- Fixed the drops for the Comatose spell quest. \n- The Planar Projections for Bertoxxulous and Terris should no longer \nbe able spawn in a location where they can't be reached. \n- Fixed several issues with the 8th cudgel quest. \n- Increased the drop rate on some quest items in Hate's Fury. \n\n** Alternate Advancement Abilities ** \n\n- Made the Servant of Ro AA pet much more potent. \n\n** Miscellaneous ** \n\n- Hit points gained from items are now display with the right value, \nand should help to prevent a few deaths from Cannibalization \n- Bind Wounds no longer uses up a bandage for attempting to use the \nskill when it is not available. \n- Fixed a bug that was not allowing players to link to containers \nunless they linked to something else first. \n- /book with no arguments again closes the spellbook as it should. \n\nNote: We have also made several spelling and grammar corrections and \nfixed a door here and there. \n\n** UI File Changes ** \n\nEQUI.xml \nEQUI_TipWnd.xml \nEQUI_HelpWnd.xml \nEQUI_OptionsWindow.xml","content_hash":"59648a443670e773738dde5b75a27ef460ea80cf419014279f518fe71b7a6285","source_files":["patches-2003-1.txt","patches_1999-2008_combined.md","patches_1999-2010_combined.txt"],"source_titles":["April 23, 2003"],"source_url":null,"source_urls":[],"occurrence_count":3,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"31c997f81e7b6b086e235ab89f1fef298f44535dc48f568651ef49ef45e53114","filename":"patches_1999-2008_combined.md","adapter":"markdown","source_offset":457337,"item_index":null,"heading":"April 23, 2003","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"markdown","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"d08f5863500ef68af63dffdc8c3c7a063bf6cef784ec62c3354ac1a71cd21c32","filename":"patches_1999-2010_combined.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":471570,"item_index":null,"heading":"April 23, 2003","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"895114f692554b832210c6c878c7025109ddf29fb53f2fd224d909a0a8487850","filename":"patches-2003-1.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":62489,"item_index":null,"heading":"April 23, 2003","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false}],"year_inferred":false,"sequence":1,"slug":"2003-04-23-1","id":"2003-04-23-1"},{"patch_date":"2003-04-14","effective_date":"2003-04-14","display_date":"April 14, 2003 1:00 pm","title":"April 14, 2003 1:00 pm","year":2003,"month":4,"kind":"live","era":"EverQuest Live","expansion":"The Legacy of Ykesha","expansion_code":"the-legacy-of-ykesha","categories":[],"sections":[],"change_count":0,"word_count":19,"summary":"We have removed some communications debug code that inadvertently went Live on the 11th.

Enjoy!\n\n** Mitigation Change **\n\nWe have evaluated the mitigation abilities of cloth and leather \nclasses, and have made changes as appropriate. For the most part, this \nchange is a reasonable improvement to the ability of monks to absorb \ndamage. At some point in the future we may re-examine the mitigation \nabilities of chain and plate classes. At this time, and with this final \nround of changes to cloth and leather classes, we believe that \nsomething very close to the appropriate balance is in place.\n\n** Pathing Update **\n\nThe first part of our work to update the pathing system for EverQuest \nis complete. NPC and pet pathing should be much improved.\n\n** Charm Changes **\n\n- Healing a charmed pet now generates an appropriate amount of hate for \nthe healer.\n- Charmed pets now take up to one third of the experience for each NPC \nkilled. This amount scales down based on the percentage of damage to \nthe target that the pet does. Dire charm pets still take the same \nexperience they always have.\n- Charmed pets are no longer selected as a monster's preferred target \nif there are many players available for the monster to attack instead.\n- ALSO (we forgot to mention this before), the resist modifiers on \nseveral charm spells (such as Beckon, Call of the Arch Mage, Command of \nDruzil and Word of Terris) have been removed, making them a bit easier \nto resist.\n\n** Windowed Mode for the EverQuest front end **\n\nThis patch introduces the ability for players to enter windowed mode at \nthe EverQuest front end (from the time you log in until you get into \nthe game). With this addition, players will be able to run EverQuest in \na window from the moment they click on the EverQuest icon to the moment \nthey log out.\n\nIn order to switch to windowed mode on the front end, just hit Alt-\nEnter. Note that there are no settings in the eqclint.ini file for \nthis, you just have to hit Alt-Enter.\n\nUse Alt-R to release the mouse from the EverQuest window (note that \nonce in the game, you need to use Alt-Shift-R to release the mouse).\n\nAnd, obviously, Alt-Tab will switch between open programs.\n\nWe have also added a Tech button that will take you to our Tech Chat. \nThis only works in windowed mode, as it opens up a new window to \ndisplay the chat.\n\n** Spells **\n\n- Stoicism now follows the same restrictions as Torpor.\n- Trickster's Augmentation and Boon of the Garou can now be cast by \ncharacters on horseback.\n- Fixed a bug that was causing spells with levitation effects to lose \nlevitation if cast over a spell that also had a levitation effect.\n- Bards now receive their first level song at creation.\n- Changed the spelling of \"Corpal Empathy\" to \"Corporeal Empathy\".\n- Changed the hit by message for Torrent of Fatigue recourse to \"Your \nvitality grows.\"\n- Changed the wear off message for Song of Sustenance to \"Your hunger \nreturns.\"\n- Adjusted the shaman spell Disinfecting Aura to be in line with Pure \nBlood.\n- The Necromancer line of heal-over-time spells should no longer \noverwrite Transon's Phantasmal Protection.\n- Augment now overwrites Augmentation.\n- Brell's Stalwart Shield now has a casting time of 4 seconds.\n- Spiritual Vigor now has a casting time of 5 seconds.\n- Resurrection no longer gives the \"Your strength returns\" message two \ntimes when the negative effects wear off.\n- Fixed a bug that would cause other players to see a character with \ndefault face/hair for their race when they turned off an illusion.\n- Fixed bug that could cause beards to fail to reappear when an \nillusion wears off. This may also fix some other appearance bugs as \nwell.\n\n** Illusions/Shape Change **\n\nWe have changed the way that Illusions and Shape Changes work with \nrespect to faction. The new system is a lot easier to understand than \nthe old one, so we'll just explain the new one. When changed into the \nform of a playable race, characters are treated as if they were a \nmember of that race. When changed into a non-playable race, characters \nretain their own racial factions.\n\n** PvP **\n\n- If a player is moving when using archery against a PvP target, they \nhave a reduced chance to hit their target.\n- Archery in Player vs. Player combat in now reduced to 66% damage.\n- Direct Damage spells in Player vs. Player combat can only do up to \n75% damage of the target's maximum hit points in a single hit. This \nmodification is done before resists are taken into account. For \nexample, if a player has 1000 hit points when fully healed, no single \ndirect damage spell will do more than 750 damage to him in a single \nhit.\n\n** Alternate Advancement **\n\n- Alternate Advancement abilities that grant Stamina gains should now \nupdate the character's hit points automatically when trained.\n- Dire Charm isno longer \"used\" when trying to affect an NPC under the \npower of a Dictate spell. It will not work, and the power is not \nexpended.\n\n** Interface **\n\n- Using the \"/book\" command with no page argument now closes the \nspellbook if it's already open.\n- Added a \"Dump\" button to Guild Management window. Pressing it creates \na text file in the EQ directory containing a comma-delimited text dump \nof the Guild Management window. The file name will be the guild name \nwith _ instead of spaces, so a guild named \"Legacy of Ykesha\" would be \na file called Legacy_of_Ykesha.txt.\n- Cross-server tells are now filtered under the \"tells\" filter like \nsame-server tells, and in the same colors.\n- Music Player volume no longer decreases when zoning.\n- The Journal window and Journal Categories window now close when \nhitting Escape.\n- The Map window no longer pops up after zoning if you used Escape to \nclose it in the previous zone.\n- Hot button names are once again restricted to eight characters. Being \nable to make them longer was a bug, and was causing issues with \ndisplaying more than eight characters.\n- The scrollbar for the Notes window should now update properly when \nthe window is resized.\n- Added multi-select capability to the Friends List, Music, Journal \nNPC, Journal Text and Journal Category windows. Shift-click selects \ngroups of items, Control-Click selects individual items.\n- Fixed a bug that was causing the Journal window to lose all \ninformation since the last save when logging was turned off.\n- Confirmation Dialog window now remembers its position.\n- The third person camera view #3 no longer resets when zoning or using \nthe armor tinting feature.\n- Fixed an uncommon crash caused by the Music Player window.\n- The LFG button in the Group window now toggles the LFG window.\n- Fixed a bug that prevented the attack button from working properly \nwhen a Centi Warspear was equipped.\n- The dialog box for confirmation of a change in video modes now \nremains open for 30 seconds instead of 15 seconds.\n- Added a \"Show Offline\" button to the Guild Management window. This \ndetermines whether or not you want to show offline people in the \nwindow, and the setting is remembered when you log out.\n- If you sort by anything other than Name in the Guild Management \nwindow, the window will sub-sort your list by name.\n- Changed the promote button in the Guild Management window to only be \nenabled when eligible guild member is targeted (not just selected in \nwindow).\n- Fixed a problem that caused a few people to have the spell particle \ndensity revert to default off when they logged off.\n-Fixed the Map window to remove a method of avoiding the map \nrestrictions in certain zones. \n- Added /getguildmotd. This command allows you to see your guild \nmessage of the day at any time.\n- /guildmotd now sets or clears the guild message of the day. If used \nwith no text, it clears the existing message of the day. Only leaders \nand officers can use this command\n- Fixed a bug that could cause a crash when pressing the U key while in \nexplore mode.\n- When under the effects of invisibility, a character that hides and \nthen moves and breaks their hide also breaks their invisibility. The \ninvisibility icon will now disappear under this circumstance so that \nthe player knows he is no longer invisible.\n- Closing the AA window no longer causes the resurrection notification \nbox to disappear.\n- Updated the category lists in the Bazaar window to be alphabetical.\n- Characters will no longer be prevented from being a trader if you \nquickly click on Begin/End Trader.\n- Fixed a bug with the LFG tool that may have been causing some people \nto crash when zoning.\n- New colors should no longer be moving from the armor dye column to \nthe item tint column when a character is saved.\n- Hand to hand weapons now \"greys out\" the melee attack button.\n- For those that type quickly, typing %t1 now has the same effect as \ntyping %t 1.\n- Fixed a bug that prevented you from purchasing a lore item if you \nhave just purchased that item and destroyed it.\n- Setting loot split color now changes the text color when others loot \nand autosplit, as well as when the player loots.\n- Language skills now update in the skills window immediately, and the \nmessage given upon skill up includes the name of the language improved.\n- Default chat channels should now be saved properly.\n\n** NPCs **\n\n- Corrected an issue with trainers that sometimes caused them to kick a \ncharacter out of the game.\n- Tin Soldiers no longer give stun immune messages to color flux when \nthey are already stunned.\n- Sollari Bekines now asks for two vials of Gnoll blood instead of one. \nShe has always wanted two for her quest.\n- Corrected some text errors for Avir Sterbla.\n- Fixed a spelling error in Paralin Notion's text. \"Other\" now reads \n\"Others\".\n- Corrected a spelling error in the Stonefist Clansman's death text. \nDeafening was spelled incorrectly.\n- Fixed a problem that may have been causing various Brutes to spawn \nunder the world in Warsliks Woods.\n- Corrected an issue that could cause multiple NPCs related to the ring \nwar event to appear in Eastern Wastes.\n- Also corrected an issue with the ring war that was causing some of \nthe NPCs to disappear too early.\n- Undead Sebilisian Lich is now undead. He just didn't realize it \nbefore. Feel free to send cards and flowers.\n- So is the Fading Specter in Tox.\n- As is the Failed Apprentice.\n- Lifestealer Mosquitoes no longer give a message that makes them \nappear to be drinking their own blood.\n- NPCs in Stonebrunt won't be wandering into the ocean and getting \nlost.\n- Merchants no longer sell containers to any character that have no \nmain inventory slots free.\n- Corrected a spelling error (changed \"to\" to \"too\") in Morgalanth \nTal`Raeloen's text.\n- Aid Garuuk now knows that Bregna has moved out of Grobb.\n- Oracle Balek and Grave Lord Vizurik now speak the appropriate text.\n- Coriante Verisue should no longer talk about Miragul all the time.\n- Cobi Frostbeard should no longer refer to himself as \"she\".\n- A ghoul in Neriak shouldn't be banging his head on a wall due to a \npathing error.

Now when you receive a \nchecklist flag you get a different message than the one that you get \nwhen you receive a normal flag. Ask the seer to unlock memories and she \nwill tell you which checklist flags you have. \n- Corrected a problem that was causing PoP raid flag mobs to not give \nout flags to anyone if the associated boss was killed by someone not in \nthe raid group.

This means that people may have to leave \na raid to get flagged, but it means that raids should no longer miss \nflags if someone outside the raid gets the kill.\n- Modified several of the Planes of Power alternate entry quests to \nmake completing them faster.

Are you one of them? \n\nAnd in Gukta tadpoles are growing into young Frogloks. There is no \ndoubt in the minds of the conquerors of Grobb that the new generation \nof their people will grow into strong and steadfast servants of \nMithaniel Marr, worthy of his respect. Will you be one of them? \n\nOOC: Have fun with the new features, the new race and the new zones. \nThank you for playing EverQuest. \n\nGameplay\n\nWe've adjusted the entry requirements for some Planes of Power zones. \nSeveral of these zones required each character to complete a quest \nbefore gaining entry. We've relaxed this requirement somewhat as \nfollows: \n\nA raid with 32 or more members can enter a locked plane provided that \n85% of the raiders have finished the entry quest. This means a raid \ngroup can bring along some friends who haven't completed the quest. \n\nCharacters who haven't done the entry quest must stay with their raid \nwhile they are in the locked zone. If these characters leave the raid \nfor more than three minutes, they will be transported out to the Plane \nof Tranquility. \n\nUsing this method does not grant permanent access to the locked zone. \nIf a character wants permanent, unescorted access to a locked zone then \nthey must still complete the quest. The goal of this change is to allow \nraiding groups to bring along a few friends who haven't been able to \ncomplete the quests, but still wish to help with the raid. \n\nSeveral of the flagging events will now only give out a maximum of 72 \nflags each time they are completed. \n\nThe dialogue boxes for resurrection and translocation will remain for 5 \nminutes instead of 1 hour. \n\nIncreased the maximum number of members on ignore and friends lists to \n100. \n\nMade some adjustments to the Halls of Honor alternate entry quest that \nshould make it more friendly. \n\nThe horse buff icon will no longer show up for characters using non-\nLuclin models. \n\nInterface\n\nContainers now close after zoning. This prevents a bug that was causing \nthe same container to be opened twice. \n\nThe rogue hide message \"You have moved and are no longer hidden!\" is \nfiltered as a \"skill\" message and not an \"other\" message. \n\nFixed a bug that was causing the spell effects opacity slider to always \nreturn to 0% when logging out to the desktop. \n\nItems\n\nHappy Dragon should no longer use a charge when the target is out of \nrange. \n\nThe inventory icons for Trydan's Greaves of Nobility, Deathwatch Sword \nand Wetfang Steak have been corrected. \n\nCorrected the name of the Drakescale Covered Tunic (was Drakscale \nCovered Tunic). \n\nThe Manicle of Disruption has been renamed Manacle of Disruption. \n\nSee above for Vorshar's Manicle of the Blight. \n\nCorrected the spelling of Golden Idol of Rodcef Nife. \n\nThe Rantho Rapier is now a piercing weapon, not a two-hand slashing \nweapon. \n\nThe Wand of Mana Tapping is no longer labeled as usable in the \nsecondary hand (since it is Enchanter only and could not be used there \nanyhow). \n\nQuests\n\nMade a change to the way Planes of Power spell quests work. All spells \nusable by more than one class are now obtained from the same level \nquest. If a spell is level 61 (Ethereal) for one class and level 65 \n(Rune Word) for another, both will have it as a reward on their \nEthereal quest. \n\nCorrected issues with the quest from the Iksar Hermit. \n\nCorrected a grammatical error in some of Bolli Hillfoot's text. \n\nMarshal Anrey should be more responsive when talked to. \n\nThe \"Bag of Troll guts\" is now dropping off of the correct NPC. \n\nZones and NPCs \n\nRemoved the ability for PCs to bind in the upper tier Planes of Power \nzones. Binding is allowed in Plane of Knowledge and Plane of \nTranquility. \n\nThe entrance to the Plane of Fire now requires the appropriate keys for \nentry. \n\nGods in the elemental planes now have fixed respawn regardless of zone \noutages. If the god in an elemental plane is up when the zone comes \ndown it will still be up when the zone comes back up. If it has two \ndays left before its respawn when the zone comes down it will still \nrespawn in two days. \n\nPrior to this patch Rallos Zek was changed, he no longer allows anyone \nhe dislikes to stand above the arena. \n\nRemoved a \"safe spot\" from the Plane of Disease. \n\nNPCs in the Plane of Justice can no longer be affected by Fear spells. \n\nFixed an issue with some level 10 NPCs in the Karanas having about 400 \ntimes the hit points that they should. \n\nDenizens of Aerin`Dar's lair will no longer be getting angry at folks \njust because they are stomping around on the ground above the lair. \n\nPuslings now understand how to \"enrage\" properly. \n\nCreatures in Fungus Grove will be less likely to ignore people shooting \nthem from a distance. \n\nMature Arboreans are now plants. Just don't call them that to their \nfaces. \n\nGiant Whiskered Bats in the Qeynos area no longer drop rat skulls. \n\nDalin Greskar has given up his hobby of trying to sell blacksmithing \ngear that he doesn't have and has gone legit with pottery supplies. \n\nCorrected a typographical error in some of Tarnic McWillows speech. \n\nFiron Dernkal will no longer add a random \"t\" to the end of people's \nnames when talking to them. \n\nCorrected an error in Eirod Haerod's text. \n\nIt seems as though the troll sent to retrieve the Forge from fallen \nGrobb has returned with Forge in hand. \n\nCorrected an issue with the respawn of Fennin Ro. \n\nA Kromzek spy will no longer give a \"beta neutral\" faction hit when \nkilled. \n\nSpells\n\nFixed a bug that prevented the owners of charmed warders from \ncontrolling or re-summoning their warders after the charm breaks. \n\nDisinfecting Aura has been changed to no longer cure poisonous effects. \nIt will now cure disease effects with much more potency. \n\nFixed a bug that was causing Bind Sight to fail to land if the \nrecipient had exactly 15 other buffs. \n\nConvergence should not eat its component as often on some types of \nspell failures. \n\nCorrected the spell book icons for several Enchanter spells. \n\nShadeweaver port should no longer place you beneath the world. \n\nIn a previous update, we added a message when a person recasts a charm \nspell on their charmed pet. Recasting charm on an existing pet did not \nactually re-charm the pet, it just failed silently and appeared to \nsucceed. The new message is now displayed intentionally in these cases. \nThis is not a bug. \n\nMiscellaneous\n\nAttack text for the Vah Shir when punching now says, \"punches\" instead \nof \"hits\" \n\nFixed a bug that was causing the reduced statistics to not update \nproperly when the character has low hit points or is encumbered. \n\nFixed a bug that caused some sale prices for items in the Bazaar \n(mostly those with a lot of 9s) to be invalid. \n\nThe /guildmotd command has been modified. Guild leaders and officers \ncan now use this command to set or clear the guild Message of the Day. \nThere is a new command, /getguildmotd, that can be used as an \nalternative to viewing the Guild MOTD in the Guild Management Window. \n\nNew and Changed UI Files\n\nAnimations \nBodytintwnd - NEW \nCart01.tga - NEW \nCart02.tga - NEW \nCart03.tga - NEW \nCart04.tga - NEW \ndragitem25.tga \ndragitem26.tga - NEW \nEQUI.xml \nEditlabelwnd - NEW \nGemicons01.tga \nGemicons02.tga \nGroupsearchwnd - NEW \nGroupwnd \nGuildmgmtwnd - NEW \nInspectwnd \nInventorywnd \nMaptoolbarwnd - NEW \nMapviewwnd - NEW \nSelectorwnd \nShortdurationbuff \nWindowpieces04.tga","content_hash":"e790ef1b68e44b18cbfa51c25f67314c7e8a6c69a32b5ce26988f10665c8c723","source_files":["patches-2003-1.txt","patches_1999-2008_combined.md","patches_1999-2010_combined.txt"],"source_titles":["February 24, 2003"],"source_url":null,"source_urls":[],"occurrence_count":3,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"ca71a7618a36c09dbaff914f54d17daafaa5ed9daeb1fc13f5d181895be7457a","filename":"patches_1999-2008_combined.md","adapter":"markdown","source_offset":419007,"item_index":null,"heading":"February 24, 2003","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"markdown","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"c64cd5d333e5e4d11d7a6aa6be7c756cfedfed5d3d139c0d39257682be9a443c","filename":"patches_1999-2010_combined.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":432657,"item_index":null,"heading":"February 24, 2003","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"aad746c7a77bd8d0ad8f8bcee677b5f2e2fce7c808adff36255965acf10a6963","filename":"patches-2003-1.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":23576,"item_index":null,"heading":"February 24, 2003","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false}],"year_inferred":false,"sequence":1,"slug":"2003-02-24-1","id":"2003-02-24-1"},{"patch_date":"2003-02-06","effective_date":"2003-02-06","display_date":"February 6, 2003 3:00 am","title":"February 6, 2003 3:00 am","year":2003,"month":2,"kind":"live","era":"EverQuest Live","expansion":"The Planes of Power","expansion_code":"the-planes-of-power","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":"tradeskills","label":"Tradeskills"},{"slug":"ui","label":"UI"},{"slug":"audio-graphics","label":"Audio & Graphics"},{"slug":"expansions","label":"Expansions"}],"sections":["Interface","Gameplay","Spells","Trade Skills","Zones","Items"],"change_count":18,"word_count":407,"summary":"Interface ** All settings for the Songs window should now be saved properly when the player logs out.

However, with the release of \nsome of the new features in this patch, such as running EQ in a window, \nwe must now say goodbye to the older interfaces. They have been \ndisabled as of today. \n\nThey served us well. \n\n** EQ in a Window ** \n\nEverQuest can now be run in a window. To place EverQuest in a window, \nsimply press Alt-Enter. You can also switch out of EverQuest to another \nprogram by using the familiar Alt-Tab. It is important that you do not \ndo this until you are in-game, do not do this during the login process. \n\nIt is important to note a few things. Running the game in a window may \nreduce game performance a bit. And, as always, the more programs you \nhave running at the same time the more resources they use. \n\nAt this time, due to some changes that need to be made on the front \nend, it is not possible to run two instances of EverQuest. We will be \nworking to make the necessary changes over the next few weeks. \n\n** Songs Window ** \n\nWe have added a new window to the interface along with new game \nfunctionality. The Songs window is a new buff window that holds up to 6 \nbard song buffs. This increases the potential maximum effects that a \ncharacter can have to 21 (15 standard and the 6 new ones). The new \nwindow only holds certain bard songs (generally the 3-tick songs). Only \nbeneficial songs will qualify for the new buff box, and not all of \nthose. Any buff in the new Songs window is considered temporary and \nwill not be saved when you zone. \n\nSongs that qualify to go into the new window will go into that window \nfirst. Any qualifying songs over six will be rerouted to the main \nEffects window. Cancel Magic effects will see these new buff slots as \nbuff slots #16-21. \n\nNote for User Interface skin creators: The Label EQTypes 80-85 are the \nSongs window song names. \n\n- Some magical effects on Planar class armor have been altered. In most \ncases the effects were upgraded, but a few items were given weaker \neffects that were more in line with the difficulty of obtaining them. \n- Fixed a bug that was causing a few Planes of Power NPCs to take too \nlong to respawn. \n- Wu's Attack should now work correctly. \n- Incoming damage now interacts with Wrath of the Wild and other rune-\ntype spells in their proper order. \n- Pact of Shadow and Shadow Compact will once again heal player \ncharacters. \n- Charmed Pets will no longer remain charmed after the owner dies. \n- Sending special characters via EQIM will no longer \nfreeze the game. \n- Hitting Autoattack when in explore mode at Character Select will no \nlonger cause the game to crash. \n- The Loadskin window will now load skins other than the default \nproperly. \n- Fixed and issue that caused some NPC's text to be cut short. \n- Fixed (but did not rename) the Broken Golem. He should no longer be \nhated in Fear, just feared... \n-Lowered the duration of calm-type spells that effect creatures level \n50 and over. \n\n** User Interface File Changes ** \n\nShortDurationBuffwnd.xml - NEW \nEQUI.xml \nBugReportwnd.xml \nLootwnd.xml \nSelectorwnd.xml \nPetInfownd.xml \nWindow_ Pieces04.tga","content_hash":"ab456e785821c7f67d684b58f36f7c1845ec101eaf1b3a59e20e86b9523d02ac","source_files":["patches-2003-1.txt","patches_1999-2008_combined.md","patches_1999-2010_combined.txt"],"source_titles":["January 9, 2003"],"source_url":null,"source_urls":[],"occurrence_count":3,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"80f9852fc2d0ce7de60cab725702a9d1115723ae0d4972b457793ac67d27090c","filename":"patches_1999-2008_combined.md","adapter":"markdown","source_offset":396115,"item_index":null,"heading":"January 9, 2003","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"markdown","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"8f6b5ab44860262c97cdd14fbe498848eb02f4616b3441b3725b12a65a573af4","filename":"patches_1999-2010_combined.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":409183,"item_index":null,"heading":"January 9, 2003","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false},{"occurrence_id":"a7c52f9aaa1fb67ed7b97837af01fd2014b9e1e3ae3171719c33b79be0c270f0","filename":"patches-2003-1.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":102,"item_index":null,"heading":"January 9, 2003","source_url":null,"source_url_raw":null,"published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false}],"year_inferred":false,"sequence":1,"slug":"2003-01-09-1","id":"2003-01-09-1"}]}
