    Can we please have the old character appearance features back, I would love to change my ability scores but I don't want my characters to look like plastic barbie dolls...

    I replied earlier, but your current appearance is saved if you choose the same race, it will show up as an extra appearance preset and will be the default (current isnt the default on this build).

    Thank god another nerf to PvE TR powers. Freaking Wicked Reminder was known to be broken making TRs overpowered in dungeons. And also keeps the TR nerf streak going, 4 mods and counting :P

    seriously though, well done on the other quality of life changes. Just the dye stacking is going to free up a lot of space.

    for the madness boon, please consider changing the uptime to 20 seconds once you build up the 50 stacks. This would make it attractive for DPS classes or else everyone will be taking the life steal boon.

    Can this appearance be saved forever? I mean, if I change my race/sex, dislike it and want to change back to how it was purchasing another race change, will this option be available?

    Some great things here. Thank you. :D

    I approve of the AotLW rework. Though I'd like to see Shift get a pass on the HR; it fails to dodge attacks & cc like half the time still.

    Dont really care about race change.

    Yay. A rebirth token. More easy min-maxing. Forgive me for not leaping for joy. Bad back, you know.
    Good thing I quit PvP all together. And I would have if this goes live. When this comes out, PvP is a one-race and 3 classes only event, plain and simple.
    Fun for RP maybe, but we all know that's not why it will sell so well. This thing better be effing expensive (sorry RPers).

    More unstoppable for GWFs.. Whoopy doo! They really needed that rofl. Instead boost the CW base control power for once to counter everyone having 90% CC resist by default. +25% duration isn't gonna fix that. Oh wait. CWs are not supposed to PvP. My bad.

    On the bright side:

    - The change on Rampaging Madness should be a good AD sink for existing players. Nobody will want it if it changes to this. Endless consumption will be a soo much better alternative it'll definitely be worth the 78k for respeccing.
    - In all PvP Domination maps, entering the enemy respawn area now causes instant death.
    Makes me quite happy. Finally a GG without effing glitchers trying their way into spawn camps. Do everyone a favor, and implement that next thursday. Don't wait for the mod to be released. Pretty please?
    - Dye Packs and Dye Bottles now all stack to 100."
    Woot!

    I dont think RPers would use race change tokens often. Its not really something normal for a person's entire race to change.

    Content and Environment
    • The new Tyrrany of Dragons campaign content has received several updates including an improved day one experience and content unlocking progression. Please see the Emissaries in the Temple of Tyr near the Rewards Claim Agent for introduction quests.

    I've killed the white dragon in Icespire (i've forgotten his name) with only 2 others people (GF, TR and CW).
    I don't know if this is intentional, but it doesn't represent a real challenge. We have never been in trouble. The dragon is slow and it's just a long battle.
    Chaotic neutral - so i can do whatever the hell i want

    Yeah panderus said it was removed by accident a couple of patches ago and he said he would try to make sure it was added back , I reminded him a bit earlier .[/QUOTE]

    Thanks for the info. I only check things sporatically so had not seen anything about that.

    I'm sure someone will get to it but the Warlock artifact is listed in the claims agent but its not in the collections tab.

    make the purple sigils refinable... i can see that blue refining 59 blue sigil is profitable... but make them refinable when they are purple... cause with this new changes people may want to change their artefacts...

    people please sustain this idea...

    No fix yet on the Warlock-class quests? Still unable to travel to the missions even though they are showing on the Gate Map! I'd love to be able to test them, but unless I'm actually able to enter them, testing is not an option.

    I'm disappointed the invisible base clothing option is super expensive for something purely cosmetic. Funny joke and all but it should be an entry level item.

    Aww, Wicked reminder nerfed, really? I don't thik I've ever heard of anyone abusing it, but oh well, I use it only on bosses anyway so it doesn't really affect me.
    Also about the emperor clothes, they require a dragon egg?? isn't that like very expensive? I think it's a lot to pay for just a cosmetic item.

    At most, it shouldn't require more than what a blue shirt or pants require - and even then, these new pieces don't appear to actually have any stats - just the invisible appearance and free transmute.

    Why is it a fail? it's a great feature ( or it will be once it is working xD) .

    I'm sure you have seen SW Attack of the Clones;)

    Now PVP is nearly all about halflings, which i kinda feel silly, that a halfling kicks the b*tt of a Dwarf or a Half-orc, but say that i'm old school. Now it will be not nearly, but everybody, who wants to win and doesn't care to much about his or her old char. I surely will stick with my old guys and girl.

    Aw, I was hoping it would be like the other crafted ones, too. The same expense and effort is put into it. It would be so nice to have an option not to have to sacrifice any stats/enchants, etc. to achieve a look.

    Oh yeah, i don't wanna angry any HR player, but i was testing out with my friend, she is a HR and does over 40K without having any vorpal enchant, with a gs of 12,8k. Sorry, but if this will go on, i fear we other classes can go fishing instead of any chance to PVP, cause my over 16 and 17k chars couldn't do anything against it. PVP is no fun currently, i was hoping it will be in Mod 4 again. :confused:

    This is currently scheduled to be pushed to Preview at 6pm PST today. I will update if there are any delays.

    Server is unlocked!

    Known Issues:
    • Race Change is currently not working as expected, it will not properly change the UI state after purchasing a token then clicking "Reroll Character".
    • Shores of Tuern Skirmishes: Players will not be able to interact with exit door to leave the map, they will have to Leave Party.
    • Lair of Lostmauth Dungeon: The platforms in the lava pit are missing collision making it near impossible to make the jumps. Players will have to try to sprint, tumble and teleport through the lava and chug potions.

    Is the race change token really meant to be a Zen store item which will be rolled out with Tyranny of Dragons, or is it just meant as a tool for the test server ?

    Classes and Balance
    • Scourge Warlock
      • Accursed Souls: Can now correctly benefit from damage increases and Critical Hits. No longer incorrectly ignores damage resistance.
      • Creeping Death: This feat now deals 100% of your Necrotic damage (up from 25%).
        What Creeping Death actualy does???
