    This is currently scheduled to go to Owlbear around 5:30 PM PST.

    Once again, on the Owlbear shard, not Preview.

    Clerics were too imba.
    This nerf was necessary :D

    Owlbear is used for small patches/fixes, preview(mimic) on the other hand is used for major stuff.

    Not entirely true. Owlbear gets opened up when they are going to be using Mimic for Module testing. Otherwise Owlbear is not able to be accessed.

    They told Dardove that Mod 3 will hopefully be patched onto preview this Thursday when he asked them on Twitter earlier so for the time that module 3 is being tested on preview Owlbear will be for patches due to get patched onto the live client and preview will be running module 3 testing .

    Quick comment on the actual patch. The Moonshae Druid is not listed in collections yet. Hopefully he will be added before this hits live so there won't be any issues like with the Dread Warrior this Thursday.

    What they said was "M3 will be Preview hopefully this week as well."

    Which means it might not be Thursday, could be today, tomorrow, or Friday. Something also might come up so it won't even be ready for this week.

    Yay, I'll be able to move the coin to the right slot on my CW soon.

    Although the REAL bug with the coin that needs to be fixed is when you get 'Tymora's blessing of Crital Strike'... ;P

    I may have missed the bus on this, or it has been mentioned, but does this also fix the knock around that occurs to a TR while in Duelist Flurry? I can't tell you how many times DC's have sent me flying, sometimes over a ledge to my death.

    Afaik that's not a bug, that's a feature, and is certainly not related to sunburst, it's caused by Duelist Flurry, because the 3rd attack, iirc, locks you on target and if anyone pushes the mob you're hitting, you're going with it. It's usually caused by CWs using repel or shield or DCs using D sunburst, when they want to push mobs over ledges, but it's not a bug with those skills, it's a DF feature that let's you fly :)

    I wish i had known this earlier, the prices are surely going to skyrocket, considered the event is held only once a year and the winter event - weapons also went for 150k AD+ the bugged crown went for 2k AD each... *sigh*

    Grats to those, who thought of it.

    Last time I checked the Crown was still going for 2k with a supply of >200.

    Okay with the "Feline" Companions and Mounts tilting thing. As long as you leave my Beetle the way it already is. The way it moves, always flat to the ground even on tilted angles, is freakin' awesome. Do. Not. Change. it.

    Or I *WILL* Drive down to SF and Cryptic offices to have a real word with you. (I'm visiting my Daughter down there soon, so this is not an idle threat). -cough- ;)

    The feline fix was necessary. They got kind of drunk-looking in the patch the week before. It was disconcerting.
