    Great news! I've had a Doohickey sitting in my bank since Winter Festival, since all my chars are female.

    And the dodging thing: TRs need to have a weapon equipped to use their shift power (I think that's true for everyone). Since Mod 6, only certain daggers qualified as MH weapon and allowed TRs to dodge.

    It means that when using CoS rogues are permadodge.

    /Endsarcasm.


    Okay Serious time now.

    It is the fix too the issue where some dagger weapons dont allow rogues to use their shift ability.
    People are way too negative, Why cant we just all get along.

    some really nice fixes this week, this gives me hope for the bigger balance changes and fixed that we were told to expect next week.

    I'm actually quite disappointed if that's the only fixes we are getting.

    There's so many rank 4 powers that are bugged.
    Lot of companions are bugged, the legendary bonus is bugged on them too aswell as the eldritch runestone in the def slot.

    No mention of fixing dungeons either.

    Heart of the White Dragon, which was supposed to be fixed last patch, slipped through the cracks, and none of them are doing damage yet. (Feel free to check, even the ones for sale report 0 damage) Was this fixed or is it still slipping through the cracks?

    That's not really much. Do you guys even realize how many people are struggling to even play the game? Either because of difficulty issues or lag/disconnects. I'm sorry to say that I am again rather dissapointed.

    What about the rank four bugs (spell mastery entangling) and the thousand other rank 4 power issues?
    What about the tab issue with half the players?
    What about the dungeons not working?
    What about Dragon Horde Enchantments being bugged?
    What about PVP accessory gear?
    What about the leveling gear at WOD only available to those that don't need it to level up?
    The list could go on and on. Don't get me wrong happy with some of the fixes, but not nearly enough in comparison to how many things are terribly wrong.

    Great more fixes ^^ ty for them guys hope u work harder towards others as well:)

    Having said that please please fix the inspect bug (not allowing inspect across map/zones) it is a terrible one i cant even advise fellow guild members on what items to get as cant see what they already have without moving into the same zone/map or asking them for an SS. Kindly make it a priority as dungeon grouping and a thousand others things are based on inspection. thnx in advance!

    Please fix the lag and auto dc issue it's really unplayable with that and the clock tower also needs fixing if that is removed please add some other alternative for it and if I could suggest (knowing it might sound stupid and players won't agree with it) when a player reaches endgame instead of just leaving it there try adding a rank level like 5 may be players have to do some special or specific quest to gain ranks and something like that I ask players to give their review about it try not to be harsh with your words

    [...far too short list with way to few and many too detailed items to adress even 5% of known problems...]

    So, I take it there'll be another huge patch on the 30th, or maybe the 7th of May???

    I really really hope they fix the exploits! Please! I think they are not listed in the patch notes because talking about exploiting bugs is not allowed ^^ I hope so.....

    I would say one of the most important fixes NOT on this list are the Dungeons. Cloak Tower etc are not working, which means they hold up the main quest line. And the possibility to properly level your character further. People are struggling and there are more people asking in chat when the dungeons will be working again. So as a rogue myself, I hardly think dodge is our worst problem xD

    Fix the bug that is making TRs MORE powerful, the stealth reveal not working.

    Also, remove the silly AoE restriction on Temptation and (at least) double the lifesteal ratio. Overnerf much?

    Lifesteal ratio seems ok to me arakk. Its not healing every hit like before but when it does work its huge and therefore more effective when it does occur. Life steal was has been replacing potion use for many people up until now, which is not what was intended im guessing.

    I'm glad seals of triumph are getting re added. The other basic changes today are on the back of the gond event start, so its not as though this is a patch specifically for fixes, but more that they are adding content anyway so why not take the chance to fix some issues that have cropped up.

    Give them a chance, this is a good starting place.

    Please check the Delzoun Treasure Box, I tried to open it in my Paladin, it didn't open. Worked fine in all other classes.

    The first step towards many fixes to come- great job guys! but can you please look into the login problem since the Arc update-many cannot even login into the game, there were DirectX ,DLL, and many issues that prevent any player to log in, They have to log into the game with safe mode and graphics are set to the lowest(it won't work sometimes) even when they have a harcore cpu. Many skipped playing because of this and many more still waiting. Thank you

    MOST Important. smal players like myself cant gear up properly!

    for me they work though... But they no longer drop the resonance stones etc, but they appear right in my inventory (but I think they wouldn't do if my inventory would be full).
    Have you checked if they may be straight in your inventory yet? I have three or four DH-Enchantments slotted and they work for me...
    Or are they only bugged for some players?

    I seriously hope they dropped the popcap for the new EE zones. 20 and under is very little lag. As soon as they start going over 20 it gets more and more laggy. At 30 it's a slideshow death zone. Going to be leveling a squishy toon next and really would like my worst enemy not to be the server.

    It would be a 2hr maintenance even if there wasn't a patch. The 2hrs is required for server maintenance (all across the board on their games, not just NW.)
