Classes and Balance
Content and Environment
Enemies
Items and Economy
Performance and Stability
User Interface
- Boon: Redcap Brew: This boon will no longer cease to function correctly when you die.
- Iron Vanguard: Ferocious Reaction: This power should no longer trigger rapidly in succession in some rare cases.
Content and Environment
- Cloak Tower: Removed the door at the end of the maze area before Vansii so it can no longer get into a stuck state in rare occasions.
- Critters in Biggrin's Rest no longer scale up in difficulty with group size
- Rothe Valley: Resolved some occlusion and draw issues in the Rothe Valley caves.
- Icewind Pass: The Power of a Shaman: Shaman staffs no longer drop once 4 have been collected.
- Icewind Pass: Yeti Vendetta: players only get credit for yeti horns that they pick up, but yetis drop a horn for each member of the party.
- Protector's Enclave: The Protectors Garden construction is now finished above the Emporium between the Many Coins Bank and the Auction House. Earning access will be granted from the Protector's Jubilee.
Enemies
- Dragon Wing Flap may now be properly blocked by Guardian Fighters.
- Fixed an issue where certain undead bosses were healing when they hit a blocking Guardian Fighter with soul reaper.
Items and Economy
- Cloak of the Hosttower no longer causes characters that wear it to have zombie grunts.
- The Corrupted and Purified Black Ice Belts are now Bind on Equip and can also rarely drop from Kessel's Retreat.
- The Lord's Armored Polar bear is now Bind on Equip. This does not affect the binding status of any that are already bound.
Performance and Stability
- Changed how damage types are used on the back end to increase game server performance. This should not change any powers damage or effects and the combat log should still state the appropriate damage type.
- Resolved a rare client crash that could occur when one of the Cleric's Daily powers with an angel and that angel somehow despawns prematurely.
User Interface
- Campaigns: Attempting to claim an item with a full inventory will now succeed.
- Guild Bank: Items must be specifically withdrawn from the bank before discarding them.
- When inspecting another player the stat tooltips now display appropriate text again.

6/12 4:40pm PST: This will be coming to Preview within an hour.
Please try to keep an eye on your powers to see if they behave any differently than on Live as we identified a performance change that should NOT change how powers work from a player's perspective. It should only be a back end change.
p.s. Please nerf Roar ASAP. It's a freaking epidemic out here! People are dying!
LOOLL.... That's pretty funny.
It should already be fixed: http://nw-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?681901-Curse-of-Icewind-Dale-Preview-Patch-Notes-NW-15-20140528a-5
Sweet , thanks for this ,very much appreciated.
This is a very welcome fix to an annoying issue of easily amused idiots ,once again thanks , some nice little fixes in this build , shame you couldn't get it patched this week.
and how about fixing the tooltip on black ice gear for black ice resistance?
Bypasses cc-immunity and you essentially splash around like a magikarp for a second or two afterwards; not working as intended.

The corrupted dwarf leap attack actually knocks down block on my GF.

I know i shouldnt say that, sorry, but its the only thing that comes in my mind
so we're gonna fix the guardian fighters being unable to block dragon wing attacks but ignore the fact that it still goes through unstopable and impossible to catch?

is that intended as well?
Honestly, I'm guessing closer to module 4, if not in module 4. They have class changes for GF, GWF, CW so far.
Who would win that and not already have it bound? They should just release more of them..
But I would absolutely pay 10-20 mil for the Armored Polar Bear. hint hint.

It isn't destroying open pvp to the point wherein Emblem was destroying regular pvp weeks ago.
I'd say Module 4, there might be a change, as of right now based on how small Cryptic's resources are, don't expect any change and just pony up that 1.2mil (or 500k if you were smart and bought low)
Yeah this needs to be dealt with in this patch , 3 seconds with no internal cooldown is crazy OP and I'm guessing was never the intended way the companion was supposed to work , the longer it is left the worse it will be when it is finally fixed , the only people who don't want it fixed are people who bought up loads and aren't interested in the gameplay implications just the profit the stand to loose.

Meh, perma-stealth is more OP in open world pvp.
Ok so this happened to me there is no claim button and its not listed as claimed what will happen?
Lol okayyyy , we will have to agree to disagree on that one XD
+1 to magikarp
please fix roar as soon as possible
