    I wanted to pop in to say thanks to DoD for actually updating this thread. He may not be v4liance, but he's definitely trying. :)

    Though I do want to point out a problem I have with one "neutral" listing. The fact that molds no longer drop from early instance bosses is IMO a universal negative. Furthermore, most of those molds have not "moved to the normal mob drop tables." If you check pwdatabase, some of them don't have any drops at all and are entirely unobtainable, while others just have a miniscule chance of dropping from world mobs, like they always had.

    I will admit that this is a personal issue for me. There was no reason to remove the molds. There's no reason the Dreamchaser gear and the molds couldn't coexist as boss drops. There is so much in this game that actually does need to be removed, the fact that they removed such an established piece of the lowgame instead will never cease to amaze me.

    But I digress. On a completely different topic... I ran into a problem with a quest recently. The "Last Leopard" quest can't be completed anymore, because on one step of the quest it tells you that you're too low level to turn it in. Pwdatabase lists that step as requring Level 150. Eh, maybe I should just put that in Quality Corner...

    Yes, I'm still a stubborn holdout in favor of the old game. Haters gonna hate. ;]

    "13. Warsong's difficulty has been slightly increased, including pavillions."

    Slightly increased? Mobs are harder to kill, mobs spawn on Snake boss run at the boss, and now on the pavilions, the heads create circles on you that blow up if you don't move in time. If you put an archer on metal now he's dead meat. Metal skills have long channel times and you won't be able to move in time.

    Remove the circles created by the heads, and take out the extra fluff on the Snake run, it's pointless and annoying. Sometimes I wonder who makes up this extra stuff. Hire one of the players here for content design and you'll have a much bigger player base and probably net twice the profit per year.

    Why? Here's the scenario: You made it easier to get T3 gear and weapons by badge farming. So you've got people who wanted R9 but can't afford it, but they can afford to farm T3 and then cash shop for refining items. If they had to straight farm R9 they would quit from the boredom. Player base went up, profits went up.

    Now you've made it twice as hard to farm Warsong for badges, and people are giving up on T3 farming, and that means you can say goodbye to the money they would spend in the boutique on refining aids, and any other money they would spend in the game on fashion if they kept playing.

    Sometimes I wonder if there are disgruntled employees responsible for this messed up content, because it honestly seems like half of it makes people want to give up and go play something fun.
    ...A day may come when the courage of men fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship, but it is not this day. An hour of woes and shattered shields, when the heavens come crashing down! But it is not this day! This day we fight! By all that you hold dear in this world, I bid you stand, warriors of Pellucidar!

    So the planned time for a patch is this Friday or Saturday?

    That should make all the TW people happy.

    Here it is almost 8pm on a Tuesday and no word on any maintenance TONIGHT yet.

    No, those updates in this thread aren't about maintenance. Those are about when a GM will next edit this thread to give us feedback on what's happening with these changes. All of his edits are in shades of red. Other edits are done by the mod team.

    -snip huge quote-
    8. How bout fixing FlowSilver to what it say a instance in this game can be done more then once for drops and rewards but I guess that is a missed point. this instance should be a daily not a instance for let us farm it. and fix the glitch in it.

    Im not sure if someone already stated this, or if it has anything to do with new horizons, but it wasnt on front page.

    When you hit check the rankings at the npc Smooth Antoine, the rankings for both seekers and mystics, while having the proper emblems, both say mystic. Clearly an error.

    Warsong has been fixed with this update.
    And I barely noticed any change in difficulty, besides traps in pavs. I would actually say it's easier, mobs and bosses seem to have lower hp or is it just me

    this is a quite old thing but, i'm the only one that have noticed that the land boss at heavens tear named "terrorclaw" when one get near to it, it losts its face? and all the other mobs that have the same design have the same glitch

    in Flowsilvar Palace, at the second boss (the one that is in the water room that looks like a dragon) when one have to kill its offsprings before reach the boss, there is 1 that have a glitch that make it hard to kill, like if the mob when you select it disapear and looks like that fall under floor, making it only be able of be killed be ranged attacks

    now some of the new skills on the descripions, at the beginning of the sentece always apear an extra letter.

    I sure many of you have experience this glitch many time, either you are doing TT or FC, you get this running glitch on sin, the glitch made the character running on the same spot, its hard/not able to use skill at all when the glitch happening, only way to fix this is tele pot to another instance or relog. its very annoying b:cry

    Localization error, BM skill Tiger Leap (forward leap) now reads the description of BM skill leap back.

    It seems it now describes leaping forward, but prior to the expansion the description said a 65% chance to evade negative status effects, now it says 35%. Is this really the case or is this a localization error again? So far I haven't noticed a difference, but if it was nerfed that would be nice to know.

    Yes, I was one shotting mobs in wood pav, and normally 2-3 shot them, I had assumed it was down to the extra 100 dex I have and my WA cards but they may have lowered HP, the traps were odd, not sure how the damage is calculated, sometimes would hit me for 2k or 200 and anywhere in between.

    Also there are various reel in's from bosses and stuff. :o

    Not really a bug, it's a remnant from the 'Chase the fairies' or whatever it was called, a quest only available in the 1st stage of opening the world spire to access primal world.

    That's probably a localization error; they messed up a few other skill descriptions, too.

    3*s dropped by Brim (and presumably Eden) bosses decomp to a handful of perfect stones, with the old decomp charge.

    Faction Slogan entry is messed up even more than it has been... was unable to find a way to post a meaningful message (tried just alphabetic and spaces, and alphabetic and numerals... no punctuation either time.)

    2. Game freezes when attempting to autopath a long distance from a mount. Can be fixed by relogging or using town teleport pot or by embracing [Fixed]

    This is false, its not fixed, tryed to read back but didnt saw anyone posted it, just tryed to autopath till i was mounted, to see it is fixed, and i got glitched.
