Nothing evokes the true spirit of Frostfell like the gift of puppies!\n- Two new sets of Frostfell-themed Hero's Forge armor are now available! You can find one in the Marketplace, while the other can be acquired by completing certain Frostfell quests.\n- New and returning festive Frostfell items are available in the marketplace, starting on December 9th, at 11am Pacific!\n\n\n*** Items ***\n\n- Added \"standard\" right-click buffs to all non-scaling items from TBM.\n- Corrected tribute values for all TBM items.\n- Increased the number of guaranteed item drops in all TBM raid chests.\n- Added The Incomplete Face of Life and Decay container to merchant: Lyppsenfon Qeyton. Combining the appropriate items from Anashti Sul will result in something wonderful!\n- Corrected augmentations with recommended level 110 to recommended level 105.\n- Corrected the augment slots for all TBM bows, shields and caster 2-hand weapons.\n- All type 5, 7, and 9 augs should now fit properly where they belong.\n- Added stats to the Emblem of Antipathy, Mottled Gorgon Feather, Revolting Thought Spur, Mark of Unfeeling Flesh, Phased Distillate of Intolerance, and the Pupil of Stolen Light.\n- Players without the Darkened Sea expansion and The Broken Mirror expansion should now again be able to receive stat buffs on their mounts/illusions, if the item has an associated stat buff.\n- Fixed flagging on TBM items that were not able to be traded on Firiona Vie.\n- Two new sets of Frostfell-themed Hero's Forge armor are now available! You can find one in the Marketplace, while the other can be acquired by completing certain Frostfell quests.\n- Haste has been added to some TBM type 9 augmentations.\n- New and returning festive Frostfell items are available in the marketplace, starting on December 9th, at 11am Pacific!\n\n\n*** Quests & Events ***\n\n- Kerath in Sul Vius: Demiplane of Life can once again be attacked.\n- Lyndalin Delwadamain, Kamiowe Ordup, and their allies now have something to say about their purpose.\n- Grubbonion's Locked Tower - The Healing Ward can be used to kill Korinth the Crusher even after you've completed the step to kill him. However, you must still be on the task and at least on the step to kill him in order to use the item.\n- Grubbonion's Locked Tower - The optional step is truly optional this time. We swear. Healing Ward and Decay Spike items should both work properly whether the optional step is completed or not. Added a small reward for completing this step.\n- The creatures inhabiting the Crypt of Sul during the Into the Temple adventure are no longer friendly.\n- Reduced the cooldown on the Shard of Healing used in the quest The Lost Lexicon Explorers Expedition.\n- After Depths of Darkhollow has unlocked on a server, the Qinimi court event can be requested with 1 player.\n- Fixed an issue that prevented some rewards, like keys, from being given for Plane of Health raids.\n- Added a corpse and PC location reset for Plane of Health and Sul Vius: Demiplane of Life raids.\n- Bhaly Adan now has the proper chance to show up in the Bane of Decay adventure.\n- In the Sul Vius: Demiplane of Decay raid as well as the group mission version, Anashti Sul, Damsel of Decay is less likely to get into a position where she is out of line of sight after teleporting between floors.\n- Killing rares in the Plane of Fear: Revisited will no longer give credit for killing Maestro and Innoruuk in Plane of Hate: Revisited.\n- Corrected a bug that prevented achievement credit being applied for killing bosses in The Broken Mirror raid zone Plane of Fear.\n- Fixed a zone crash because NPCs don't have chat filters and can't filter their chat. This was causing The Triunity in the Sepulcher Event 5 to crash the zone.\n\n\n*** Spells ***\n\n- Modulation and cannibalization spells can no longer be cast if the damage dealt by the spell is greater than your maximum health. This functionality previously only applied to the items Summoned: Modulating Rod and Rod of Mystical Transvergence.\n\n\n*** Mercenaries ***\n\n- Removed Woeful mercenaries from the tab-target list.\n\n\n*** Achievements ***\n\n- Hunter of the Plane of Hate and Hunter of the Plane of Fear achievements now have half as many \"the\".\n- Corrected text error in the descriptions for the Defenders of the Faith and Bane of Decay Toughness and Time Trial achievement descriptions.\n- Removed all achievements related to Bard's Casting Proficiency as they were all redundant with reaching level 10.\n\n\n*** NPC ***\n\n- In the Plane of Fear: Revisited, the lockouts for nightmares and thought bleeders are no longer reversed. Previously, having a lockout for thought bleeders would prevent nightmares from spawning, and vice versa.\n- Several boss NPCs in Argin-Hiz and Arx Mentis now summon: Arc Facultas Ingens, Efreeti Lord Aresh, High Keeper Arieal, High Keeper Jahar, Mayor Livio, Praetor Captain Tita Aragus, Principal Quastori Numicia, Arc Auctus Ingens, Calix Quirinus, Lanys T`Vyl, Principal Indagator Gordianus, a keeper of the flame, and a libre vitala.\n- Lord of Ire has returned from his vacation and can be found in the Plane of Hate: Revisited.\n- Adjusted how NPCs choose a melee target in relation to player pets:\n- - It is now possible for a pet to be the target of an NPC's melee attacks if it has the highest aggro with other players in range.\n- - This behavior can be adjusted on a per NPC basis and will currently be disabled for all current and previous raid difficulty NPCs.\n- - It is additionally possible for some NPCs to ignore the hatred generated by pets and instead attribute a portion of that hatred toward the owner. This behavior will be in play on raid targets on progression servers.\n- Adjusted how NPCs choose a melee target when they are rooted: NPCs will now choose to hit the target that they hate the most that is within melee range. Previously NPCs would simply hit the nearest hated target.\n\n\n*** AA ***\n\n- Monk - Corrected an issue that caused all three ranks of Thunderfoot to trigger 6% of the time rather than 6, 9, and 12% of the time.\n- Updated the description on all ranks of Companion's Wrath to clarify the functionality of the ability.\n- Shaman - Corrected a bug with rank 11 of Group Pact of the Wolf that prevented it from extending the duration of the ability as expected.\n- Shaman - Corrected the target type of Wind of Pathosis so that it will properly function when triggered by Wind of Malosinete.\n- Druid - Added a spell landed message to all ranks of Spirit of the Black Wolf.\n\n\n*** Progression Servers ***\n\n- Made further adjustments to the power curve of pets prior to the release of the Shadows of Luclin expansion.\n- Restricted the creation of Gnome Paladins and Shadowknights and Halfling Paladins and Rangers to Luclin so that their availability matches the availability of their guildmasters and supporting vendors. Any existing characters with this combination will be unaffected.\n- Crusaders of Greenmist - The Goblin Penmaster and Enslaved Iksar now spawn in the Frontier Mountains on Progression Servers.\n\n\n*** Collections ***\n\n- The Shard of Cabilisian Diamond should now show up in the Crypt of Sul.\n\n\n*** Miscellaneous ***\n\n- Corrected an issue where the message that reports what zone the guildhall teleportation device is set to was not displaying when zoning into neighborhood guildhalls.\n- Applying the heroic character upgrade to an existing character will no longer reset your casting specialization skills.\n- Look to the marketplace this December! From the makers of Cat in the Bag comes Dog in a Crate. Each crate contains a random adoptable dog familiar. Trade them to your friends or collect them all yourself. Nothing evokes the true spirit of Frostfell like the gift of puppies!\n\n\n*** UI ***\n\n- Adjusted the default gamma behavior of the game in windowed mode. By default, opening the game will no longer adjust the brightness of your desktop as it should no longer be necessary to increase the gamma slider in order to achieve reasonable in-game visibility.

They should still heal you when you are damaged below that amount.\n\n\n*** Miscellaneous ***\n\n- Monk - Increased the skill caps for Kick and Flying Kick by 5 points for all levels. Additionally, increased the monk skills Dragon Punch, Eagle Strike, Round Kick and Tiger Claw caps to match the skill cap values of Kick and Flying Kick and Kick.\n- Claiming your monthly 500 DBC membership reward while in game (logged in to a character) will present you a limited time offer to purchase an item for a discount or an exclusive item not available in the Marketplace.\n- Mounts and Illusions that do not have a stat buff can no longer be placed in the stat buff slot and will give an error message.\n- Corrected an issue when attempting to gate to your bind point if you were in an instance that matched the geometry of your bind point.\n- Corrected an issue in the Arx Mentis raid that could cause players to get stuck in the floor when they try to enter an area of the zone that they are not flagged for.\n\n\n*** UI ***\n\n- Added the illusion key ring.\n- Moved the mount key ring to the new key rings window.

This should result in increased weapon damage bonuses, especially for two-handed weapons.\n- Most clickable buff items will now grant you a passive AA ability with a permanent effect! See the Items section for details.\n- Look out for new Nights of the Dead items available in the Marketplace, beginning October first!\n- Made several changes to the way Fading Memories and other escape abilities work. Please see the AA section for details.\n\n\n*** Items ***\n\n- Keep an eye on the Marketplace starting in October for new and returning Nights of the Dead items! You'll be delighted to find sinister mounts like the Dark Direhound, horrifying weapon visuals like the Nightmare ornaments, fiendish familiars like the Cat in a Bag, Player Studio offerings, and much much more!\n- Updated the way that the alternate advancement ability Sinister Strikes functions. The ability now grants weapons wielded in your offhand a percentage of your weapons damage bonus. This change allows the ability to grant an effect for weapons with a delay lower than 30 and will better scale to higher damage weapons.\n- Fixed an issue that would cause items to be deleted if you tried to send them to a player that doesn't exist.\n- The server is no longer alcohol powered and no longer requires a sacrifice of an alcoholic beverage when you drink an alcoholic beverage.\n- Changed the following buff lines that result from activating items so that their effects grant the bearer passive AA abilities: Ancestral Memories, Aura of Battle, Breath of Atathus, Expanding Mind, Form of Defense, Form of Endurance, Form of Protection, Form of Rejuvenation, Grim Aura, Knowledge of the Past / Soothing Breath, Might of Stone, Myrmidons Skill, and Prismatic Ward.\n- - Activating an item with one of these spells grants you a passive AA ability at a rank that matches the power of the buff. (Activating an item with a weaker buff will not lower your passive AA ability rank.)\n- - Activating an item with one of these spells now casts a shadow spell named for the buff line. These shadow spells have no effects but are permanent duration and are intended to allow you to retain the use of these items as a means to reduce the impact of incoming dispel attacks.\n- - When you are granted a rank of one of these passive AA abilities you are now also granted an activated ability called Item: Disable Item Abilities. This ability will clear all of your item-granted abilities and allow you to start fresh.\n- Extended the spell durations of the following item buff lines: Aura of the Void, Essence of Ruaabri, Gnoll Reaver Fortitude, Gunthak Grit / Fortitude, Illusionary Spikes, and Thorny Shield. They all have a permanent duration and persist through death.\n- Fixed a problem that could cause some items to be lost when unpacking a suit of Hero's Forge armor.\n\n\n*** Quests & Events ***\n\n- Look to the marketplace this October for the Cat in a Bag. Each one contains a random adoptable cat familiar. Trade them to your friends or collect them all yourself, and keep an eye out for the easily terrified Scaredy Cat familiar and always agitated Cranky Cat familiar!\n\n\n*** Spells ***\n\n- Spells can now have more than one focus effect at a time, similar to AAs.\n- Melee skills that apply buffs to the caster no longer require a target in order to work.\n- Shadowknight - Adjusted the hatred multiplier for the gift recourse from the line of Touch spells to be as good or better than the highest rank of the AA ability Voice of Thule that is available at each level range.\n- Spells that allow you to gravitate your target toward your location have been modified so that they only function on targets up to level 100. This applies to Compliant Lurch and Forceful Attraction.\n\n\n*** NPC ***\n\n- Reviewed the majority of enemies in Call of the Forsaken and The Darkened Sea zones with regards to immunity to runspeed changes, mesmerization, stun, lull, charm, and fear, and removed or relaxed restrictions on most NPCs.\n- Fixed some enemies that were immune to fling and gravitate effects but would allow players to attempt to cast on them. These spell now fail immediately upon casting on these immune enemies rather than upon landing. This applies primarily to raid encounters and encounters in the Plane of War.\n\n\n*** AA ***\n\n- Passive AA abilities that modify the amount of hatred generated by the player's actions can now be toggled on and off. This change means these abilities can now be auto-granted to all classes, and allowed us to refund the activated AA ability Negation of Subtlety.\n- The AA abilities Knowledge of Alaran Culture and Advanced Knowledge of Alaran Culture have been removed. All Veil of Alaris AA abilities that required the purchase of Advanced Knowledge of Alaran Culture have had that restriction removed.\n- Consolidated All bind-wound-related AA ability lines (Bandage Wound, Mithaniel's Binding, Field Dressing, and Combat Medic) into a single general line called Bandage Wounds.\n- Consolidated the general innate statistic lines (Innate Strength, Innate Agility, etc) and the statistic cap lines (Planar Strength, Planar Agility, etc) into single ability lines in order to reduce UI clutter in the AA window. For example: Planar Strength is now rank 16 of Innate Strength.\n- Glyph of the Indeterminable Reward and Glyph of Unfathomable Reward no longer share a re-use timer with the other Glyph AA abilities.\n- Corrected an issue with the Ageless Enmity and Area Taunt AA abilities that prevented them from adding the intended amount of hatred over the previously most hated target.\n- The passive AA ability Spell Casting Reinforcement no longer extends the duration of invulnerability spells.\n- Unobtainable ranks of Hero's Vitality, Hero's Fortitude, and Hero's Resolution no longer display in the Special tab of the AA window. Newer ranks of the ability are displayed as they become available as rewards for completing content.\n- Beastlord - Renamed the AA ability line Extended Feralgia to Extended Moongrowl and corrected it to work on level 105 spells.\n- Beastlord - Corrected an issue with the AA Extended Bloodlust that prevented it from extending the duration of the second rank of the Bloodlust ability.\n- Beastlord - Renamed the AA ability line Spell Casting Subtlety to Combat Subtlety and updated its description to better reflect the fact that hatred generated by both spells and melee combat is affected by this line.\n- Beastlord - Corrected a bug with the passive AA ability Extended Moongrowl that prevented it from extending the duration of the Growl of the Leopard and Feralgia lines of spells as intended.\n- Beastlord - Adjusted the required level, expansion and costs for the Shaman and Beastlord versions of the AA abilities Shrink and Group Shrink. This corrects an issue that prevented the beastlord version of the AA ability Shrink from displaying.\n- Berserker - Renamed the AA ability line Echoing Cries to Extended War Cry.\n- Berserker - Removed the ability for the self-damage component of the AA ability Agony of Absolution to apply critical damage.\n- Berserker - Updated the AA ability line Axe of Rallos to function with the level 105 skill Axe of Numicia.\n- Berserker - Renamed the AA ability line Extended Havoc to Extended Cry Havoc and it now functions on the ability Cry Carnage.\n- Berserker - The AA ability line Decapitate no longer reports \"Your target does not meet the spell requirements\" when melee attacking targets that are above the level in which the ability can trigger. Instead, the decapitating blow will deal 0 damage to targets that are too high of a level for this ability.\n- Berserker - Furious Rampage now places a visible buff on you to indicate its duration and to allow you to remove the effect early if needed.\n- Berserker - Created Focused Furious Rampage, a new AA ability that allows you the same number of additional combat rounds on a single target.\n- Enchanter - Changed the re-use times of all enchant material AA abilities from 1 to 8 hours to 10 to 60 seconds. These abilities now share two re-use timers (one for mass and one for single use).\n- Monk - Destructive Force now places a visible buff on you to indicate its duration and to allow you to remove the effect early if needed.\n- Monk - Extra melee rounds granted from Destructive Force now have the ability to trigger additional hits from double attack, etc.\n- Monk - Created Focused Destructive Force, a new AA ability that allows you the same number of additional combat rounds on a single target.\n- Monk - Updated the AA ability Hastened Destructive Force to function on both Destructive Force and Focused Destructive Force.\n- Rogue - Rakes Rampage now places a visible buff on you to indicate its duration and to allow you to remove the effect early if needed.\n- Rogue - Created Focused Rakes Rampage, a new AA ability that allows you the same number of additional combat rounds on a single target.\n- Paladin - Modified the AA ability Beacon of the Righteous so that it will now impart its instantaneous hatred component even if the stun and hatred over time components of the ability are resisted.\n- Paladin - Changed the resist modifier for Divine Call to be more in line with other gravitate and fling abilities.\n- Paladin and Shadowknight - Added a new passive ability line, Bold Attacks, that increases the amount of hatred generated by your actions. Reduced the effective hate percentages for the activated AA abilities Voice of Thule and Marr's Salvation so that maximum hate generation is close to the same amount.\n- Warrior - Added more ranks to the passive AA ability line Bold Attacks and extended the line to lower levels to match the levels that the Paladin and Shadowknight version of this AA ability line become available.\n- Warrior - The buff applied when using Rage of the Forsaken has had its duration and aggro multiplier reduced to better reflect intended values with the recent changes to Bold Attacks.\n- Warrior - Renamed the AA ability line Hastened Defiance to Hastened Warlords Tenacity and re-ordered the ranks to reflect their proper power growth.\n- Warrior - All ranks of the AA ability Warlords Tenacity now count down in buff-frozen zones.\n- Warrior - Modified Warlord's Grasp so that the improved taunt portion of the ability will continue to function even if the target is immune to the gravity portion of the ability.\n- Warrior - Sneering Grin ranks 1-3 have been changed to be a toggled passive ability.\n- Wizard - Modified the AA abilities Frenzied Devastation and Sustained Devastation so that only the spells focused by these abilities will use charges and receive the focus effect.\n- - Adjusted the mana cost component of these abilities to make them less mana efficient.\n- - Improved the number of charges slightly for Frenzied Devastation and substantially for Sustained Devastation.\n- - Improved the chance to critically cast granted by Sustained Devastation.\n- - Created two additional ranks of Sustained Devastation to better match the available ranks of Frenzied Devastation\n- Made a number of changes to AA abilities that allow players to escape from combat:\n- - Corrected a bug that ignored any chance to escape from combat that was set below 100% on spells that did not have a duration.\n- - Changed the invisibility component of abilities that allow you to escape. Now, upon successfully rolling your escape chance, if you are at least 30 feet away from all targets that have you high (top 10) on their hatelist, you will have a spell cast on you. In most cases this spell is an invisibility buff.\n- - Modified the Cleric ability Divine Peace, the Paladin ability Balefire Burst, the Warrior ability Howl of the Warlord, and the Berserker ability Self Preservation to apply a sanctuary buff upon a successful escape rather than invisibility.\n- - The distance restriction for the added spell component of these abilities does not apply to the hatelist removal functionality. There is no minimum distance for removing yourself from the hatelists of qualifying NPCs.\n- - Put level restrictions in place on all escape abilities. Starting at level 75 most classes are only able to immediately escape combat from NPCs that are yellow con (player level +3) or lower. Exceptions to this are Rogues, Bards, Monks, Shadowknights and Rangers who can escape from NPCs that are up to 5 levels higher. AA abilities available prior to level 71 now work on creatures up to level 75.\n- - All classes with escape AA abilities now have new 0 cost ranks available at each level increase that they did not previously have purchasable ranks. These 0 cost ranks increase the maximum level that the abilities will function on.\n- - Bard - Increased mana cost for higher level ranks of the AA ability Fading Memories by approximately 3% per player level.\n- - Ranger - Removed mana cost for the AA ability Cover Tracks and increased its success rate from 50-70-85% to 60-75-90%.\n- - Magician - Combined the AA abilities Drape of Shadows and Cloak of Shadows into a single ability line Drape of Shadows which provides a chance for the Magician to escape from combat and a guaranteed chance for their pet to escape from combat. The combined ability does not require the Magician's pet to be up for the Magician to escape from combat. Merged the Magician passive abilities Hastened Drape of Shadows and Hastened Cloak of Shadows into a single line which provides a 4.5 minute reduction to the reuse time of the combined ability at max rank.\n- - Shadowknight - The spell Rigor Mortis will be modified in a later patch to correctly cap the level of targets that it functions on and Last Gasp, Last Breath, Final Gasp and Terminal Breath will be updated with similar functionality to Rigor Mortis. For now, Rigor Mortis is capped at level 109.\n\n- Modified all AA abilities that allow you to fling or gravitate your target to your location so they function only on NPC targets below your current level. Added new 0 cost ranks at every level to increase the level range that the abilities will function on. This applies to Lure of the Siren's Song, Divine Call, Moving Mountains, Warlord's Grasp, and Hate's Attraction.\n\n- Combined the following activated AA abilities into single lines:\n- - Acute Focus of Arcanum, Enlightened Focus of Arcanum and Empowered Focus of Arcanum are now ranks 2-5 of Focus of Arcanum.\n- - Replenish Companion ranks 1-21 are now ranks 2-22 of Mend Companion.\n- - Berserker - Cascading Rage ranks 1-10 are now ranks 4-13 of Untamed Rage. Hastened Cascading Rage has been renamed Hastened Untamed Rage and has been updated to function on all ranks of the combined ability line.\n- - Berserker - Stomping Leap is now rank 3 of Battle Leap. Battle Leap rank 3 is now rank 4. Rank 3 of Battle Leap now stuns targets up to level 85 in addition to conferring a melee bonus to the caster, rank 4 now stuns targets up to level 90 as well as conferring an improved melee bonus.\n- - Cleric - Improved Sanctuary is now rank 2 of Sanctuary.\n- - Druid - Hand of Ro is now rank 1 of Blessing of Ro, ranks 2-5 of Blessing of Ro are equivalent to what were previously ranks 1-4.\n- - Enchanter - Improved Reactive Rune ranks 1-3 are now ranks 3-6 of Reactive Rune.\n- - Magician - Small Modulation Shard, Medium Modulation Shard, and Large Modulation Shard are now ranks 1-3 of a combined line: Summon Modulation Shard.\n- - Magician - Fire Core ranks 1-10 are now ranks 2-11 of Heart of Flames. Extended Fire Core has been renamed Extended Heart of Flames and has been updated to work on all ranks of Heart of Flames.\n- - Magician - Vapor Core ranks 1-12 are now ranks 2-13 of Heart of Vapor. Extended Vapor Core has been renamed Extended Heart of Vapor and has been updated to work on all ranks of Heart of Vapor.\n- - Magician - Ice Core ranks 1-7 are now ranks 2-8 of Heart of Ice. Extended Ice Core has been renamed Extended Heart of Ice and has been updated to work on all ranks of Heart of Ice.\n- - Magician - Stone Core ranks 1-10 are now ranks 2-11 of Heart of Stone. Extended Stone Core has been renamed Extended Heart of Stone and has been updated to work on all ranks of Heart of Stone.\n- - Necromancer - Army of the Dead ranks 1-27 are now ranks 4-30 of Wake the Dead. Graverobbing has been renamed Hastened Wake the Dead and has been updated to function on all ranks of the combined ability line. Quickened Army of the Dead has been renamed Quickened Wake the Dead and has been updated to function on all ranks of the combined ability line.\n- - Necromancer - Improved Death Peace is now rank 3 of Death Peace.\n- - Necromancer - Perfected Dead Man Floating is now rank 2 of Dead Man Floating.\n- - Paladin - Hand of Disruption is now rank 1 of Force of Disruption, ranks 2-15 of Force of Disruption are equivalent to what were previously ranks 1-14.\n- - Shadowknight - Improved Death Peace is now rank 3 of Death Peace.\n- - Shadowknight - Improved Explosion of Hatred is now rank 3 of Explosion of Hatred. All ranks have been made no-resist.\n- - Shadowknight - Improved Explosion of Spite is now rank 2 of Explosion of Spite. All ranks have been made no-resist.\n- - Warrior - Enhanced Area Taunt is now rank 2 of Area Taunt. Hastened Instigation has been renamed Hastened Area Taunt and has been updated to function on all ranks of the combined ability.\n- - Warrior - Stomping Leap is now rank 3 of Battle Leap. Battle Leap rank 3 is now rank 4. Rank 3 of Battle Leap now stuns targets up to level 85 in addition to conferring a melee bonus to the caster, rank 4 now stuns targets up to level 90 as well as conferring an improved melee bonus.\n- - Wizard - Mana Blast, Mana Blaze and Volatile Mana Blaze are now ranks 2-12 of Mana Burn. Hastened Manaburn has been updated to function on all ranks of the combined ability line.\n- - Wizard - Prolonged Destruction ranks 1-15 are now ranks 4-18 of Frenzied Devastation. Sustained Destruction has been renamed Sustained Devastation. Improved Sustained Destruction is now rank 7 of Sustained Devastation. Hastened Prolonged Destruction has been renamed Hastened Devastation and has been updated to function on all ranks of both Frenzied Devastation and Sustained Devastation.\n- - Wizard - Frenzied Devastation and Sustained Devastation have been modified so that only the spells focused by these abilities will use charges and receive the focus effect. The mana cost component of these abilities has been adjusted to make them intentionally less mana efficient. The number of charges has been improved slightly for Frenzied Devastation and substantially for Sustained Devastation. The chance to critically cast granted by 'Sustained Devastation' has been improved. Two additional ranks of Sustained Devastation have been created to better match the available ranks of Frenzied Devastation.\n- - Wizard - Atol's Unresistable Shackles is now rank 2 of Atol's Shackles.\n\n- Modified the timer data for the following activated AA abilities so that they should no longer conflict:\n- - Berserker - Furious Leap with Battle Leap and Battle Stomp.\n- - Berserker - Savage Spirit with Identify.\n- - Cleric - Call of the Herald with Harmonic Dissonance.\n- - Cleric - Blessed Chains with Drakkin racial breath abilities.\n- - Cleric - Innate Invis to Undead with Celestial Regeneration.\n- - Enchanter - Beguiler's Banishment and Beguiler's Directed Banishment with Drakkin racial breath abilities.\n- - Necromancer - Self-Sacrifice with Banestrike.\n- - Necromancer - Encroaching Darkness with Bind Affinity.\n- - Necromancer - Cloak of Shadows and Innate Invis to Undead with Death Peace.\n- - Necromancer - Scent of Terris with Identify.\n- - Paladin - Radiant Cure with Heroic Leap.\n- - Shadowknight - Bobbing Corpse with Bony Grasp of Death.\n- - Shadowknight - Cloak of Shadows with Death Peace.\n- - Warrior - Furious Leap with Battle Leap.\n- - Wizard - Translocate with Summon Clockwork Banker.\n\n- Corrected the following issues with the AA abilities Projection of Doom, Projection of Fury, and Projection of Piety:\n- - Multiple projections can now be used on a single target. Previously, if multiple projections were used on the same target only the most recently summoned pet would transfer aggro to the caster.\n- - Corrected a bug where the caster would have their aggro value with the target set to the amount of hate generated by the pet rather than increased by the amount of hate generated by the pet. Previously, if the ability was used late into a fight, it could result in a net loss of hate with the target.\n\n*** Progression Servers ***\n\n- Removed the maximum player limit for the following Kunark zones: Karnor's Castle, The Dreadlands, Skyfire Mountains, The Ruins of Sebilis, The Emerald Jungle, Timorous Deep, and Howling Stones.\n- The Plane of Fear and the Plane of Hate now load balance when populated by enough adventurers. Raid targets will only spawn in the base version of the zone.\n- Increased the intensity of the effects of Mark of the Old Ways, which is applied to Magician and Necromancer pets that are engaged in combat with raid bosses, to values that are more in line with intended tuning.\n\n\n*** Miscellaneous ***\n\n- If you are currently bound in a zone that no longer allows Bind Affinity to function, that bind point will be reset to your starting location the next time you enter your current bind zone.\n- Monk - The skills Eagle Strike and Dragon Punch (or Tail Rake) now share the same timer as Tiger Claw so that they will no longer conflict with the reuse timer for Kick, Round Kick and Flying Kick.\n- The auto-follow command no longer requires you to be grouped with your targeted player.\n- Corrected a bug that prevented the Add Funds function in the Marketplace window from working.\n- Bags and items will no longer temporarily disappear on the client if you retrieve them from the shared bank and have a lore item conflict with your Parcels.\n\n\n*** UI ***\n\n- In a future release, marketplace purchases will be able to complete directly without having to open the Marketplace window. Created a new window that contains only information about the specific marketplace item to support this.\n- Corrected a bug where NPC wild rampage messages were being filtered as pet wild rampage messages and vice versa.\n\n\n- Changed -\n\nEQUI.xml\nEQUI_PurchaseWnd.xml\n\n\n*** Previously Updated ***\n\n- Trakanon in Sebilis will drop additional Veeshan's Peak key pieces (Trakanon's Tooth) on progression servers.\n- a dracoliche in pre-revamp Plane of Fear is no longer teeny tiny. He is three times his previous size, and the same size as his post-revamp version. a dracoliche in pre-revamp Plane of Fear now has a 100% chance to drop an item, up from 30%.\n- The experience rewards for all bone chip quests have been retuned. Half of the bone chip quests had their reward increased dramatically. However, with the current ease of collecting bone chips in the modern game, the reward was very high in some cases, and so those quests have had the reward reduced.\n- The Keg of Vox Tail Ale is now available for purchase from various merchants across Norrath.\n- An Undead Bard will only spawn in the base version of Old Sebilis.\n\n\n- The EverQuest Team","content_hash":"3d04c2444fcbbd87a3484771992ca016c5d38a53217dc42e098ad239a8750dc0","source_files":["patches-2015-2.txt"],"source_titles":["Game Update Notes: September 23, 2015"],"source_url":"https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/game-update-notes-september-23-2015.226759/","source_urls":["https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/game-update-notes-september-23-2015.226759/"],"occurrence_count":1,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"e87d7be70caa9550e5ba2b55e42c80d67d35e2109fab686d527794d7a2a9fa7b","filename":"patches-2015-2.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":23240,"item_index":null,"heading":"Game Update Notes: September 23, 2015","source_url":"https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/game-update-notes-september-23-2015.226759/","source_url_raw":"https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/game-update-notes-september-23-2015.226759/","published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false}],"year_inferred":false,"sequence":1,"slug":"2015-09-23-1","id":"2015-09-23-1"},{"patch_date":"2015-08-19","effective_date":"2015-08-19","display_date":"Game Update Notes: August 19, 2015","title":"Game Update Notes: August 19, 2015","year":2015,"month":8,"kind":"live","era":"EverQuest Live","expansion":"The Darkened Sea","expansion_code":"the-darkened-sea","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":"servers","label":"Servers"},{"slug":"audio-graphics","label":"Audio & Graphics"},{"slug":"expansions","label":"Expansions"}],"sections":["Highlights","Items","Quests & Events","Spells","AA","Progression Servers","Miscellaneous","UI","Previously Updated"],"change_count":63,"word_count":1550,"summary":"Highlights *** Fixed an issue with turbo processors causing players to run very fast/very slow.

Some burn disciplines have had power reduced. See the Spell and AA sections for details.\n- Added an AA ability for all pet classes that reduces the amount of hate your pet will generate.\n- Fixed several issues with the Frenzied Burnout AA line for Magicians.\n- Magician and Necromancer pets are now weaker in large numbers against some raid targets on Progression Servers. See that section below for details.\n\n\n*** Items ***\n\n- Added augmentation slots to a handful of miscellaneous armor and weapons that did not previously have them.\n- Magician - Corrected the following issues with the Obedient Companion line of spells cast by magician robes:\n- - Renamed these spells to follow a simpler standardization.\n- - Robes obtained in The Darkened Sea (excluding Castaway Robe of the Conjuror) will now focus Bolt of Molten Shieldstone rather than Bolt of Molten Magma.\n- - Increased the amount of focus damage that TDS robes will add to Bolt of Molten Shieldstone.\n- - The Companion's Strikes triggered by the TDS robes can now be cast when your pet backstabs in addition to when it bashes. This gives the water pet the ability to utilize this buff.\n- - Corrected several inconsistencies where some robes in the series were casting a lower level version of the bolt focus spell than they should have been.\n- The Doljonijiarnimorinar axe now has a positive weight instead of a negative weight.\n\n\n*** Quests & Events ***\n\n- A cold wind blows through the caverns below the spires that sit at the center of Luclin's deadliest mountains. Practitioners of the dark arts may be interested in seeking this out.\n- Plane of Sky - The Djinn quest givers that inhabit the halls below the first island have had their respawn time reduced from 2.4 hours to 20 minutes.\n- Alerts have been created for Living Legacy and Brew Day events!\n- Alerts for recurring events should show up again if you had dismissed them in years past.\n\n\n*** Spells ***\n\n- Damage dealt by a defender to their attacker as a result of a damage shield will no longer display two lines of text when this damage is dealt.\n- Implemented a new timer ID (-1) for melee abilities that allows them to be used independently.\n- Beastlord - Reduced the skill damage modifier on the caster's portion of Bestial Fury Discipline and Empathic Fury by 50, Savage Fury by 13-16, and Savage Rage by 10-16 due to innate AA increases. This is designed to keep melee burns the same (or higher) while increasing damage at all other times.\n- Berserker - Moved all axe summoning abilities from timer 7 to timer -1.\n- Berserker - All abilities that summon multiple axes now have a 4 second cast time and 12 second recast time.\n- Berserker - Reduced the skill damage modifier by 50 on Blind Rage Discipline and Berserking Discipline, Sundering Discipline by 33, and Brutal Discipline by 30 due to innate AA increases.

This is designed to keep melee burns the same (or higher) while increasing damage at all other times.\n- Rogue - Moved the Blinding Flash line from timer 8 to timer -1.\n- Rogue - Reduced the skill damage modifier on Duelist Discipline and its upgrades (Assassin, Eradicator, Executioner) by 50 due to innate AA increases.

This is designed to keep melee burns the same (or higher) while increasing damage at all other times.\n\n\n*** AA ***\n\n- Implemented the following changes in an effort to create an overall increase in damage over time while leaving the damage dealt under the effects of short duration (burn) disciplines at least what it was previously.\n- - Starting at level 40 and extending to level 105, all non-caster classes will be granted ranks in a passive AA ability line that increases overall melee damage dealt with all skill types. The percentage increase starts at 10% and increases to 50% by level 65 for all classes. For levels 70 through 105 the percentage increase scales differently per class.\n- Ranger - Created a new AA ability called Gladestrider's Leap. It is available starting at level 85 from the Underfoot expansion.\n- Ranger - All ranks of the Journeyman's Speed ability now reduce the re-use time for Gladestrider's Leap.\n- All pet classes now have an activated AA ability called Companion's Calm Demeanor. This ability, when activated, will reduce the hatred generated by your summoned pets by 40%.\n- Enchanter - Renamed the ability Deep Sleep to Projected Somnolence.\n- Enchanter - Projected Somnolence retains the chance to trigger Deep Sleep on a mesmerized target, but now also has a 100% chance to trigger Somnolence when the enchanter casts a level 65 or higher cripple spell.\n- - Each rank of Somnolence is an equivalent accuracy debuff to each rank of Deep Sleep but does not offer the attack speed debuff (Deep Sleep's Malaise) imparted by rank 6 and higher of Deep Sleep.\n- Magician - Fixed the following issues with the line \"Frenzied Burnout\":\n- - Ranks 1-9 now have a functioning flurry chance. This chance is additive with the owner's passive pet flurry chance AA abilities. (The flurry chance on Ranks 7-9 previously did not function for pets.)\n- - Ranks 1-9 now have a defined rampage chance. Note: a pet's rampage attacks will not break mesmerization. (Previously, only rank 1 of this AA line and no other had a special case that caused the magician's pet alternate flurry chance and rampage chance. This special case for rank 1 has been removed and now ranks 1-9 have a defined rampage chance.)\n- Warrior - Corrected a bug that prevented the ability Dual-Wielding Proficiency from being activated if the warrior had a piercing weapon in their primary hand and a one-handed blunt weapon in their secondary hand.\n\n\n*** Progression Servers ***\n\n- Increased the maximum number of adventurers that can be in any load balanced version of the Commonlands.\n- Many of the bosses in the Ruins of Kunark will provide more of a challenge on Progression Servers. Bosses in the Ruins of Kunark will only spawn in the base version of their zone.\n- Returned the defensive skill values of level 1-65 magician and necromancer pets to match what they were in the Planes of Power era. This will only affect Progression Servers until LDoN unlocks on the server. These changes have no impact on other live servers.\n- Raid targets that were previously increased in power on Progression Servers now have the ability Mark of the Old Ways. This will reduce the resistances and melee damage output and increase incoming melee damage of Magician and Necromancer pets with increasing severity based on the total number of those pets that are attacking the raid target.\n- Progression raid targets have had their difficulty reduced, particularly in the Plane of Sky.\n\n\n*** Miscellaneous ***\n\n- Link-dead (LD) players will no longer be immediately removed from the world.\n- /quit now works like /exit.\n- Fixed a bug that caused certain raid bosses to stop appearing in instances on live servers. This primarily impacted Lady Vox and Lord Nagafen in Old Man McKenzie's Ancient Heroes missions.\n\n\n*** UI ***\n\n- Extended target slots set to display targets that don't exist will now not render a lifebar rather than displaying an empty lifebar with the name \"------\".\n\n\n- Changed -\n\n\n*** Previously Updated ***\n\n- Addressed some world stability issues related to spam filtering.\n- You will no longer crash when trying to \"View Mine\" for an achievement that you cannot view.\n- Lowered the AC values of many NPCs in the Arx Mentis raids by up to 45 percent.

Each proc effect that is active will be processed independently. See the Spells section for details.\n    - Damage shields now report the damage that they do in all cases and can be directed to chat filters.\n    - Spells that do not take hold will now relay a more accurate description as to why they did not take hold.\n    - A new item, the Legend of the Oathbreaker, is available with prizes from the Legends of Norrath sets Oathbreaker, Ethernauts, and Against the Void.\n    - Journeyman's Rucksacks and Journeyman's Pocketed Rucksacks are now available for purchase year-round on all servers that have Omens of War unlocked.\n\n\n    *** Spells ***\n\n    - Beastlord - The Nature's Fury line of spells will now correctly reduce offhand damage from damage shields, instead of increasing it.\n    - Magician - Summon spells such as Call of the Hero no longer cause their target to dismount, unless the location that the target is being summoned to is too small of an area for that target to have summoned a mount.\n    - Spells that do not take hold will now relay a more accurate description as to why they did not take hold.\n    - Reduced the critical chance for all rain spells level 96 and above.\n    - The Spell Critical Chance spell effect has been split into separate Critical Chance and Critical Damage effects. Spells that affected one or the other have been changed to have equivalent effects.\n    - Proc effect stacking - Changed how buffs that trigger effects when spells and skills are used (\"procs\") interact with each other. All procs now have the ability to cast concurrently. This changes previous behavior that only allowed one proc spell to be cast at a time.\n    - - Example one: For a player using the Bone Staff of Wickedness and the buff Spirit of the Puma, it is now possible for both effects to proc independently each melee round. Under the previous rules, players could only cast one or the other spell per melee round.\n    - - Example two: For a player wielding Kyzer's Ritual Dagger augmented with The Murderer's Heart, it is now possible for both effects to proc independently each time that player casts an appropriate detrimental spell. Under the previous rules, players could only cast one or the other spell per appropriate detrimental spell cast.\n    - Spells can now be defined as belonging to a Spell Stacking Group. Inspecting a spell that belongs to a Spell Stacking Group will list the name of that group and the rank of that spell within the group in the spell inspection window.\n    - Assigned Spell Stacking Groups to buffs that trigger effects when casting spells or using skills in order to support the fact that you can now have multiple buffs with these effects active at the same time.\n    - - Examples: Mana Reiteration Rk. III (which is now rank 22 of the \"Mana Flare\" stacking group) will now be overwritten by Mana Reciprocation Rk. III (which is now rank 40 of the \"Mana Flare\" stacking group).\n    - - Mana Reciprocation Rk. III will *not* be overwritten by Ancient Hedgewizard Brew because Ancient Hedgewizard Brew is part of the stacking group \"Resonant Tonics\".\n    - Damage shield damage is now considered magical non-melee damage; this means that melee guard and melee threshold guard spell effects will no longer negate damage shield damage. Rune, spell guard, spell threshold guard, and spells that allow you to absorb damage as mana will continue to block damage shield damage.\n    - Taking damage from a damage shield is now an action that can decrement the use counter on some limited use spells.\n    - A number of changes have been implemented regarding damage shield and environmental damage messages:\n    - - Changed damage shield message filters from \"Show All/Hide All\" to \"Show All/Show Mine/Hide All.\"\n    - - Added the ability to filter environmental damage messages for other players as \"Show All/Hide All.\"\n    - - Added the ability to set individual colors for incoming, outgoing and others' damage shield messages, and to filter them to separate windows.\n    - - Damage shield messages will now display the amount of damage dealt by a defender to an attacker. Damage assignment has not changed; damage from damage shields is still not assigned to an owner.\n    - - Damage shield messages will now display the correct message if the amount of damage being taken was negated by spell effects such as rune or spell guard.\n    - - Changed the filter for spell effects that cause the bearer to take damage when they attack (such as the cleric \"Mark\" line of spells) so they are reported as damage shield damage. These spell effects now message the amount of damage the attacker takes.\n    - - Changed the filter for spell effects that cause the caster of a detrimental spell to take damage (\"feedback\" spells) so they are reported as damage shield damage. These spell effects now message the amount of damage the caster takes.\n    - - Created new filters and assignable colors for environmental damage messages (such as burning in lava, drowning, suffocating, freezing in ice, falling, or being hit by a trap). They are no longer filtered as if they were damage shield messages.\n    - Adjusted the spell names and the 'spell landed' and 'spell wore off' messages on a number of spells to reduce the cases where dissimilar spell lines shared the same messages or where multiple spells shared the same name.\n\n\n    *** AA ***\n\n    - Corrected a display issue that could occur when two existing AA lines were consolidated into a single line.\n    - Activated AA abilities that have their timer refunded because their spell failed to take hold or affect a target can no longer trigger spell procs.\n    - Enchanter - Retuned Gift of Hazy Thoughts to grant a more consistent but lower damage increase. Gift of Hazy Thoughts now triggers Gift of Chromatic Haze rather than Chromatic Haze VI, and can now be triggered by casting damage over time or stun spells in addition to direct damage spells. Gift of Chromatic Haze has a much lower damage focus than Chromatic Haze VI.\n    - Enchanter - Ranks 1-21 of the AA ability line Nightmare Stasis have been consolidated into ranks 4-24 of the Stasis AA ability line. The /alt act number for Nightmare Stasis (previously 748) is now 409. The functionality of Waking Nightmares, triggered when ranks 4-24 of Stasis breaks, remains unchanged.\n    - Enchanter - Fixed a bug that prevented the AA ability line Quickened Stasis from shortening the cast time of ranks 4-24 of Stasis.\n    - Enchanter - The AA ability line Hastened Nightmare Stasis has been renamed Hastened Stasis.\n    - Enchanter - Fixed a bug with the AA ability line Profound Visage. The ability line now multiplies the base effectiveness of the visage buffs by 20% per rank. (Ex. Rank 6 now allows the bearer of Horrifying Visage to generate 22% more aggro, up from its base 10%.)\n    - Enchanter - The AA ability line Surreality has been renamed Hastened Mind Over Matter.\n    - Enchanter - The AA ability line Doppelganger's Beckon has been renamed Hastened Doppelganger.\n    - Enchanter - The buff triggered by the AA ability Gracious Gift of Mana has been renamed Gracious Gift of Mana 96 to 105 and has had its messages updated to more closely match other \"Gift of Mana\" spells.\n    - Enchanter - Corrected a bug with the AA ability Hastened Mesmerization that prevented it from functioning on level 86 through 89 and level 100 to 105 spells.\n    - Enchanter - Ranks 1-6 of the AA ability line Mana Draw have been consolidated into ranks 2-7 of Gather Mana. The AA ability line Hastened Gathering has been renamed Hastened Gather Mana. Ranks 1-3 of the AA ability line Hastened Mana Draw have been consolidated into ranks 3-5 of Hastened Gather Mana.\n    - Enchanter - Corrected a bug with the AA ability line Forceful Banishment that prevented it from working on ranks 2-4 of Beguiler's Banishment.\n\n\n    *** Progression Servers ***\n\n    - Hunting zones in The Ruins of Kunark will spin up new load balancing versions when they are populated by enough adventurers.\n    - Many of the bosses in the Plane of Sky, the Plane of Hate, and the Plane of Fear will provide more of a challenge on Progression Servers.\n    - Antonican Traveler's Bags and Antonican Traveler's Rucksacks are now available for purchase year-round on Progression Servers.\n\n\n    *** Miscellaneous ***\n\n    - Added /pickzone fewestplayers to automatically pick the zone with the lowest number of players.\n    - Fixed a bug that would very occasionally cause you to appear unconscious even though you were full health after a divine save.\n    - NPCs that are in combat and are pushed by spells with a knockback component should no longer teleport directly to their most hated target if their most hated target remains stationary.\n    - NPCs that are pushed by spells with a knockback component should appear in their new location more quickly than before.\n\n\n    *** UI ***\n\n    - When viewing achievements from chat you will now see the category and sub-category that the achievement is from in the Achievements window.\n    - Added the ability to open an achievement in the achievements window when viewing an achievement from chat by clicking \"View Mine\".\n\n    - Changed -\n    EQUI_AchievementWnd.xml\n\n\n    - The EverQuest Team","content_hash":"b6fbd0777a607ef803421beae0f1a7cfcd2a40cc179672b4177e9ed121e7ae91","source_files":["patches-2015-2.txt"],"source_titles":["Game Update Notes: July 22, 2015"],"source_url":"https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/game-update-notes-july-22-2015.225121/","source_urls":["https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/game-update-notes-july-22-2015.225121/"],"occurrence_count":1,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"c8c90656035a56e77384793e8381a8d3bb8c3dbdaa6f11a41a200b71d68b7cd6","filename":"patches-2015-2.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":4025,"item_index":null,"heading":"Game Update Notes: July 22, 2015","source_url":"https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/game-update-notes-july-22-2015.225121/","source_url_raw":"https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/game-update-notes-july-22-2015.225121/","published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false}],"year_inferred":false,"sequence":1,"slug":"2015-07-22-1","id":"2015-07-22-1"},{"patch_date":"2015-07-01","effective_date":"2015-07-01","display_date":"Game Update Notes: July 1, 2015","title":"Game Update Notes: July 1, 2015","year":2015,"month":7,"kind":"live","era":"EverQuest Live","expansion":"The Darkened Sea","expansion_code":"the-darkened-sea","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":"servers","label":"Servers"}],"sections":["Highlights","Items","Quests & Events","Spells","NPC","AA","Progression Servers","Miscellaneous","UI","Previously Updated"],"change_count":21,"word_count":614,"summary":"Highlights *** Big bags are returning to Norrath for a limited time!

The mana cost for summoning a mind crystal is now twice the amount of hit points or mana returned by that crystal. In the case of rank 1 this is a mana cost reduction; for ranks 2-4 this is a mana cost increase.\n    -- 7. Corrected a typo in the description for the amount of mana returned by Azure Mind Crystals.\n    - Monk - Restored the knockback on the spell Dragon Force.

Once the corpse unlocks, anyone is free to loot it.\n    - - - You can also choose a player in your group from the drop-down menu and click \"Give.\" This will award the item to that player directly.\n    - - - If you check \"Auto Roll,\" an automated random roll will occur whenever this item is seen again, awarding the item directly to the winner.\n    - - Roll: Check this box to initiate a roll for the item.\n    - - You can also right-click on the item for the following options:\n    - - - Free Grab: The first person to express interest in this item (by checking ND, GD, AN, or AG) will get it.\n    - - - Leave on Corpse: The item is removed from the Shared Loot List and anyone can loot it from the corpse.\n    - - - Give to: This option lets you give the item directly to a specific person in your group.\n\n\n    *** Quests & Events ***\n\n    - Artifacts of Great Importance - Made eating mushrooms a bit easier in this Heroic Adventure, and fixed a bug that could prevent the task from progressing if you ate the mushrooms too quickly. You no longer need to target yourself when using the Living Fungi (but if you want to, go for it).\n    - Liquid Courage - A Flask of Fire Water no longer incorrectly sends messages regarding a bonus objective. The real method to obtain the objective does not involve this item.\n    - Korucust's Royal Pain - Corrected a problem that could allow players to complete some task elements out of order and get stuck.\n    - Korucust's Royal Pain - Removed the requirement to have the key on your cursor when opening locked doors. It can merely be in your inventory.\n    - Korucust's Royal Pain - Reduced the number of kills necessary to complete those steps of the mission so you no longer have to track down everything in the zone.\n    - Korucust's Royal Pain - Changed the Key Teeth icon to use something more key-like than the salt and pepper shaker icon.\n    - Korucust's Royal Pain - Enemies in this Heroic Adventure now scale down in level more fairly.\n    - Pirates of Timorous Deep - Pirates you encounter in this mission will no longer enrage at low health.\n    - Pirates of Timorous Deep - Fixed a bug that could cause the buried treasure to not spawn in very rare circumstances.\n    - Pirates of Timorous Deep - Enemies in this Heroic Adventure now scale down in level more fairly.\n    - Cleansing the Ground - Fixed a bug that could cause far too many infected and hosts to spawn in this task.\n    - In the Plane of Fear, a harbinger of Fear can help adventurers get their epic 1.0 pieces that would normally drop from Cazic-Thule or the golems. These pieces cannot be multi-quested or traded. In addition, a harbinger of Fear can advance the Whistling Fists quest in the same way as Cazic-Thule.\n\n\n    *** Spells ***\n\n    - Druids - All spells in the Winter's Flame line have been changed to work like Winter's Wildflame. The component spells will now receive the full benefit of damage foci but will not use twincast counters on their own. The base spells can still be twincast as before.\n    - Magicians - Added \"No Twincast\" effects to all levels of Rampaging Servant. This allows the pet to be focused but prevents the single point of damage on this spell from using Twincast charges.\n    - Rangers - All spells in the Summer's Dew line have been changed to work like Summer's Cyclone. The component spells will now receive the full benefit of damage foci but will not use twincast counters on their own. The base spells can still be twincast as before.\n    - Spells that burn mana or endurance (such as the Tears of Qandieal line or Ignite Energy line) can now stack with each other on the same target.\n\n\n    *** NPC ***\n\n    - Brasse's beard has been located and returned to the correct location.\n    - Most vendors from the Plane of Knowledge have returned from hiatus. They feel as though they can still compete with all-in-one vendors.\n\n\n    *** AA ***\n\n    - Monk - Removed the knockback effect from Dragon Punch AA procs. Additionally removed the option to create an activation button for this ability because it is a passive effect.\n\n\n    *** Miscellaneous ***\n\n    - Changed the default file format for screenshots to JPG instead of BMP. You can change your screenshot format back to BMP or to PNG by placing the line \"ScreenshotType=PNG\" in the [Defaults] section of your eqclient.ini file.\n    - Disabled the force pop-up of the expansion at the login screen when you don't have the expansion.\n    - Removed the force pop-up of the Welcome Screen when logging in.\n    - Opening the petition window in your default browser should no longer point to an invalid page.\n    - /hidecorpse options: always, looted, listed and listedunlocked will now persist when zoning and logging off.\n    - Optimized the processing of long merchant lists. They should open more quickly now.\n\n\n    *** UI ***\n\n    - Added the new /autobank command. This will attempt to place any item on your cursor in your bank.\n    - The voice chat window is no longer active by default.\n    - /clearchat and /clearallchat now function while in hover mode.\n    - Fixed an issue with the Find window where scrolling to the bottom wouldn't stay there if you were in a group with 'show group' enabled.\n    - Added the ability for coin and point crystals to update when custom UIs move them to the alternate currencies tab.\n    - Added a prompt when deleting a character to make the player type the character's name as the confirmation instead of clicking a button.\n\n    - Many UI files have been changed. If you are unable to log in to a character with a custom UI, be sure to check the \"Reset UI to Default\" option just below \"Enter World\" on the Character Select screen.\n\n    - Added -\n    EQUI_AdvancedLootWnd.xml\n    EQUI_LootFiltersCopyWnd.xml\n    EQUI_LootFiltersWnd.xml\n    EQUI_ManageLootWnd.xml\n\n    - Changed -\n    EQUI_Templates.xml\n    EQUI_Animations.xml\n    EQUI_OptionsWindow.xml\n    EQUI_RaidWindow.xml\n    EQUI_Templates.xml\n    EQUI_TextEntryWnd.xml\n    EQUI.xml\n\n    *** Previously Updated ***\n\n    - Cleansing the Ground - Greatly reduced the number of infection hosts that spawn after the boss is defeated and lowered their levels by 5 to allow them to be dispatched more easily.\n\n\n\n    - The EverQuest Team","content_hash":"1448909e3d31a469d25d36fb37f94d470ea24c8011e08a85c6c4d0d6ce19b9ef","source_files":["patches-2015-1.txt"],"source_titles":["Game Update Notes: March 25, 2015"],"source_url":"https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/game-update-notes-march-25-2015.218967/","source_urls":["https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/game-update-notes-march-25-2015.218967/"],"occurrence_count":1,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"4fca35e779a4f6c5c0b2d503dd350cc017182db41b76ca9036fa3e67fe9f8346","filename":"patches-2015-1.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":21138,"item_index":null,"heading":"Game Update Notes: March 25, 2015","source_url":"https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/game-update-notes-march-25-2015.218967/","source_url_raw":"https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/game-update-notes-march-25-2015.218967/","published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false}],"year_inferred":false,"sequence":1,"slug":"2015-03-25-1","id":"2015-03-25-1"},{"patch_date":"2015-03-17","effective_date":"2015-03-17","display_date":"Game Update Notes: March 17, 2015","title":"Game Update Notes: March 17, 2015","year":2015,"month":3,"kind":"live","era":"EverQuest Live","expansion":"The Darkened Sea","expansion_code":"the-darkened-sea","categories":[],"sections":["Hotfix"],"change_count":1,"word_count":36,"summary":"Hotfix *** Cleansing the Ground - Greatly reduced the number of infection hosts that spawn after the boss is defeated and lowered their levels by 5 to allow them to be dispatched more easily.","content":"*** Hotfix ***\n\n\n- Cleansing the Ground - Greatly reduced the number of infection hosts that spawn after the boss is defeated and lowered their levels by 5 to allow them to be dispatched more easily.","content_hash":"d4515e9374325c616206888983fd967cfc78e964ecca7f2ae085d6b06389eab4","source_files":["patches-2015-1.txt"],"source_titles":["Game Update Notes: March 17, 2015"],"source_url":"https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/hotfix-notes-march-17-2015.218807/","source_urls":["https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/hotfix-notes-march-17-2015.218807/"],"occurrence_count":1,"source_occurrences":[{"occurrence_id":"d80c9e7aac3c9a5a6c38b0168e6413a4b2e9268b4ff974fa0fe38ad94cb394a1","filename":"patches-2015-1.txt","adapter":"text","source_offset":20672,"item_index":null,"heading":"Game Update Notes: March 17, 2015","source_url":"https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/hotfix-notes-march-17-2015.218807/","source_url_raw":"https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/hotfix-notes-march-17-2015.218807/","published":null,"source_kind":"text","excerpt":false,"year_inferred":false}],"year_inferred":false,"sequence":1,"slug":"2015-03-17-1","id":"2015-03-17-1"},{"patch_date":"2015-03-11","effective_date":"2015-03-11","display_date":"Game Update Notes: March 11, 2015","title":"Game Update Notes: March 11, 2015","year":2015,"month":3,"kind":"live","era":"EverQuest Live","expansion":"The Darkened Sea","expansion_code":"the-darkened-sea","categories":[{"slug":"zones-npcs","label":"Zones & NPCs"}],"sections":["Highlights"],"change_count":4,"word_count":54,"summary":"Highlights *** Experience in pre-CotF zones for characters over level 100 has been increased dramatically.
