edited November 2017 in NeverwinterPreview - Announcements/Release Notes
Edit: The highlight is removed for now - I was a little early on it. Please still let us know if you experience more instability than you've experienced before.


Release Notes

Content and Environment
Chult
  • Heart of Darkness: The dragon turtle should now properly stay visible throughout the cutscene.

  • Spellplague Caverns (Master): The chest at the end now properly awards loot.
  • Storming the Castle: This quest should more consistently gain credit for completing the Stronghold Siege PvP queue.
    • Note: We were unable to reproduce this issue internally, so the fix is not fully testable. We're open to hearing if this continues to be an issue.
Events
  • The run of Gift of Tymora originally planned for November 22nd, 2017 has been replaced with Coins of Waukeen instead.

Combat and Powers
Boons

  • Legendary Carpet of Flying has had a small typo fix in its flavor text.
  • Shattered Ancient and Lesser Shattered Ancient gear no longer incorrectly claim to give out 10x the Refinement value that they actually do, and no longer mention a bonus to Artifact Gear.

User Interface

  • Phase Spider: Accounts that had the "infinite reclaim, bind on pickup" version of this companion can once again properly claim it from the Reward Claims Agent.
    • Note: For the above two notes, a manual process needs to be run on the qualifying accounts. These should properly be claimable Friday morning.

    @micky1p00 I love those images.

    Player handles will not show up in guild logs in this update, but that may be in a future build.

    This is a great change, these things were a pain in the neck to fight against in PvP and all the trolls seemed to have them ...

    Can you also please do the same for players that were promoted? It would be nice to see who promoted/demoted the player in guild. Thanks

    @nitocris83 reminded me that I missed a patch note - Identification Scrolls now work properly again.

    hey @terramak cant salvage relic armor only give option to covert to 1 rp.

    PS. on another thought isn't it time to allow the hammer forge from black ice able to be used for other functions since we all don't farm black ice anymore maybe to dig for relics increasing quality chance​​

    Those sandy pants are still broken bro and do not respect your new and improved cc resistance algorithm and not one dev has commented in months on the New pvp CC system

    having player lockedup for 3 seconds times every players using (5 in domination) it means half the match you cant move when stunned or use powers yet again when dazed for extended periods how does that fit into the spirt of wanting players to move in pvp and not to be locked down and not cced yet creating more items that lockplayers down and are trolly and stun lock


    what exacly is the difference between a daze and a stun cause they still seem to be stunning
    .. and why does this item not respect cc immunity / new pvp cc stack as far as duration goes maybe you can get the dev that actually worked on the pvp CC system to comment

    mod12b was supposed to be the pvp mod remember? now another new broken item is introduced
    the jungle boon is also having the same effect no cooldown and locking players as well

    if you are effected by the pants it should be global cooldown on the item in pvp of 60 seconds ..not per player
    the item essentially has cc piercing mechanics

    Is there any chance we can somehow opt out of queues we don't want to be in like FBI or SP? It's a pain trying to get daily ad this way unless we just run leveling dungeons on alts forever. Thanks.

    Furthermore, I would like the "Guild Activity" tab show a distinction as to whether someone was kicked, or they simply left. It looks sorta terrible to new players to the game/guild when your activity show a bunch of people leaving.

    Even better would be a "removed for inactivity", this way we could clean our rosters and people wouldn't just see "so-and-so has left the guild".
