All Servers to be Published
Jeremy Dalberg
26 Nov 2007 17:29:57 EST


All servers will be published with the following during their next available maintenance:


Added the Salvage Bag:
    • The Salvage Bag is the core of the enhanced recycling system. Players store items in the bag like any other container, but when a recycle command occurs, they target the bag to handle all the items at once.
    • Layout:
      • a blue leather bag labeled "A Salvage Bag"
      • Available on Provisioners for a nominal (~1000gp) fee
    • Details:
      • Use the context menu on the bag to select "Salvage Ingots", "Salvage Cloth", or "Salvage All"
        • All items of the appropriate type in the bag (metal for smelting, cloth for scissoring) are recycled into their resources
        • The player gets a message containing number of items successfully recycled
Killing bosses in Doom will increase your chances of getting an artifact drop:
  • Killing bosses in Doom will increase your chances of getting an artifact drop:
  • Each player character participating against a gauntlet boss or the Dark Father will accumulate artifact reward points.
  • The more artifact reward points a player character accumulates, the more likely an artifact will spawn in his/her backpack.
  • Player characters who score higher on the Top Attacker list will earn more points. However, everyone in the Top Attackers list that stays the entire duration of the combat (even if slain) will still earn points.
Moved the New Haven moongate closer to town

Fixed bug that caused 2d chat name selection window to pop up when logging in/crossing server lines

Fixed bug that caused karma loss before selecting a target when begging

Begging will now reduce your karma less if you fail

Resist Spells will now allow you to reduce some damage from Blood Oath ((resist spellsx10)/20 + 10=percentage of damage resisted)

NPCs should cast Blood Oath less often

The KR client should perform more smoothly in high-latency situations

Re: All Servers to be Published (Next Maintenance) posted 11/26

This could be interesting.... reported weirdness since the patch includes :

Bags of sending using multiple charges to send stuff.
Swoop and Barracoon now on WAY higher HP (5,000 for Swoop?), and much boosted other stats.
Disappearing monster corpse bugs in 2d.
Reports of people getting 3-4 artifact drops in Doom per hour. (!)

Messed up on the Haven gate too. To leave Haven, it's in the new place, going to Haven from another moongate you arrive where the old gate used to be, but there's no gate there any more....

Definitely the BOS is deducting charges based on weight of item being sent ...
so don't use your BOS until they fix it ....

Unless it's one of the rare deliberate changes arising from a publish, in which case it's permanent until they break it or give in to people shouting.

Wouldn't be surprised if it's an intended change, but why they don't announce it in the patch notes, is beyond me

Re: All Servers to be Published (Next Maintenance) posted 11/26

ok this sucks, 11k in gold, 18 charges on the BOS and says I do not have enough charges?? I had to drop leather and recall out to bank my gold.

Also we had several kills just VANISHED right as they died this morning, page GM but got nothing.


Now all the Luna vendors are selling BOS at 40k to 65k [30 charges] each when yesterday they were going for like 25k to 30k [30 charges] this is sad.

They won't be fixing them it was not a mistake. They actually f@ed em up on purpose. One of the stupidest things I've seen in along time around here.

-Solen powder quest now rewards 4-5 powder.
-Bags of sending now use 1 charge per 10 stones of weight, rounded up. (15 stones would use 2 charges, for example)
