    *** Items ***

    - Fixed flagging on TBM items that were not able to be traded on Firiona Vie.
    - Changed TBM Weapons that formerly had DoT procs so they now have analogous direct damage procs.
    - Added "standard" right-click buffs to all non-scaling items from TBM.
    - Corrected tribute values for all TBM items.
    - Increased the number of guaranteed item drops in all TBM raid chests
    - 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!
    - Corrected augmentations with recommended level 110 to recommended level 105.
    - Corrected the augment slots all TBM bows, shields and caster 2-hand weapons.
    - All type 7 augs should now fit properly in visible and non-visible armor.


    *** Quests & Events ***

    - Added a small reward for completing the optional step in the quest Grubbonion's Locked Tower.
    - Lyndalin Delwadamain, Kamiowe Ordup, and their allies now have something to say about their purpose.
    - 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.
    - 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.
    - Feather in the Wind - Kerath in Sul Vius: Demiplane of Life can once again be attacked when necessary.
    - The creatures inhabiting the Crypt of Sul during the Into the Temple adventure are no longer friendly.
    - Reduced the cooldown on the Shard of Healing used in the quest The Lost Lexicon Explorers Expedition.
    - After Depths of Darkhollow has unlocked on a server, the Qinimi court event can be requested with 1 player.


    *** Mercenaries ***

    - Removed Woeful mercenaries from the tab-target list.


    *** AA ***

    - 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.
    - Lord of Ire has returned from his vacation and can be found in the Plane of Hate: Revisited.


    *** Progression Servers ***

    - Made further adjustments to the power curve of pets prior to the release of the Shadows of Luclin expansion.
    - 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.


    *** NPC ***

    - 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.


    *** Miscellaneous ***

    - Removing a stat mount or illusion from the keyring stat slot will now properly remove it.
    - Corrected text error in the descriptions for the Defenders of the Faith and Bane of Decay Toughness and Time Trial achievement descriptions.
    - 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!
    - Adjusted how NPCs choose a melee target in relation to player pets:
    - - 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.
    - - This behavior can be adjusted on a per NPC basis and will currently be disabled for all current and previous raid difficulty NPCs.
    - - 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.
    - 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.

    You didnt forget about Monsoon, Sword of the Swiftwind again did you?
  3. Silv Augur

    Were slot 5 augs left out of this intentionally or still an oversight?

    It never had a DoT proc, it got +1 rank to stunning command
  5. Riou EQResource

    They look to have had their Armor Only restriction removed as well. Just not listed in the Notes.

    So its stunning command VI now instead of V? aka still super useless?
  7. Gumby Augur

    I hope it works, but stating it was even procing 6% of the time is inaccurate.

    It is only procing around 1.2% of the time on Live servers right now.

    It's also pretty obvious to see the graphic of the proc going off, but then checking the Parse and seeing nothing for procs. So it could be procing like you said at 6%, but just not landing for some reason as well.

    So dose this mean that just like in powar where the names can't be pet tanked that other npc and named mobs will now not be able to be pet tanked or this only in raids.

    5 instead of 4, hasn't been touched since that change
  11. Riou EQResource

    It procs per command press not per flying kick attempt :/
  12. Riou EQResource

    Helmets still don't have Faerune, and gear for melee still doesn't have +skill dmg mods on them

    Will this mean the rings, earrings etc will be able to get augs put in them now as well?
  14. torach Journeyman

    I was able to put augments in my Putrid Ring last night so they must have added it with the patch on Wednesday. Looking forward to getting close to 700 hDex once I buy some other slot stuffies. Just waiting on charm now....

    This item is not for sale to someone who has killed all four tier 1 raids.
    Most of these are showing as unknown db strings when inspecting the items.

    The clicks to slot arrangement looks completely random. I've seen Geomantra, Soothing Breath, Might of Stone, and Knowledge of the Past all on earrings. (Why the hell are you still bothering with both Soothing Breath AND Knowledge of the Past?)

    Weapons are still missing descriptions for combat effects.
    [IMG]
    Weapons should have type 20 ornament slots, not type 21 (Hero's Forge) slots.


    Focus effects on Crypt-Hunter level group gear is still showing as +100% to 75%. Which is both claiming to be higher than raid focuses, and in the wrong order. Raid gear lists itself as +65% to 100%
    [IMG]
    Raid armor is on the left, group armor is on the right.
    We've literally never seen nightmares in the PoFear instances, even when entering with no lockouts.

    These NPCs still don't respond to hails.

    That's about all I can check without a group and without getting into combat.

    I have logs to show that before the (nerf) it was proccing from the original flying kick as well as synergy and stunning kicks since they are flagged as flying kick skill attacks. It could also proc from itself which I haven't seen happen in quite a long time. Hopefully it will go back to the way it was.

    Yep, then it was gutted by the AA Dev :p and this current version seems to be its new intended form.
