    You are extremely limited now on the number of characters you can use when linking an item. If you link an item with a long name, you sometimes cannot type anything after it at all.

    Does this simply mean that the number of characters in the name of the item now counts toward the limit of characters of the chat string?

    I can see this making sense. Before, the item only counted as one character. Maybe people abused this by linking and item, and then changing the name of the item to contain a lot of text.

    I've never seen an item with anywhere near that long of a name before.

    THe daylie given by Amber mentioned before is not only for a lvl 100+ It's available below that too. I did it with my Sin(lvl 39) So I think it's from 30.. So if you are around that NPC with your low lvls get it.. It's free exp :)

    I did this just now with my 102 Archer to confirm what you said....he got 120,000exp and 24,000sp and the system log showed the same. Think you just saw a couple extra zeros?

    And just to compare, I did it with my 98 Veno. She got 104,310exp and 20,862sp

    now that HAS to be a typo!b:puzzled

    one of the most ironclad rules of the game has been that of no trading/selling of accounts, which would mean characters. to change that rule would be pulling the rug out from under the entire TOS.

    Seems some kind of character selling service they set up on their servers. You can sell a toon to a different account, that sort of thing.

    That's for the China servers only where you can buy and sell toons from accounts to one another. On our servers 1 you can't do it and 2 it's against the ToS to.

    I noticed with chat, linking items doesn't let me type much more afterwards. I actually started typing a filler, finishing my message, then going back and linking the item in order to send a full message once again. And when I use "^_^" the '^' double up and move my chat line around and no longer follows where I'm typing properly.
    Honestly though, with all these changes, I'm the most surprised, and annoyed, at how many things they neglected to include with their own patch notes. If there's any kind of communication going on between the companies, it isn't apparent in any way. PWE- fix this before you make one too many mistakes and start losing those high level cash shoppers too. At this rate, it will happen and I'm just waiting to see

    cba checking if these have been said.
    there's a new buff protection thingy, something to do with parties, it gets cut off so idk what it is.
    vit herbs have the timer too. interestingly for 30 secs, while it says they last 20 secs in the description. I had already guessed as much but never bothered to check

    Not exactly. It could be that they intended it this way but if so, it totally failed. For example: if I were to type a regular line with no linking I should easily be able to fit in "Ring of Scorching Heavens, does anyone want it?" However, if I link a Ring of Scorching Heavens I cannot even type one letter after it.

    This is more than likely due to the fact that the words you see there are also identified with a number, so that the system can find the correct stats. So on top of the characters you can see, there are probably close to 6 numbers and the word identifier hidden from view.

    The text count for item link has been botched.
    Basically the item link counts as like 30 characters but the text field will let you enter it if you have like 5 characters left.

    This will work:
    Looking for more for BH Abbadon and S> [Tome: Love Up and Down]

    This will not:
    S> [Tome: Love Up and Down] and Looking for more for BH Abbadon

    They had the same problem with smileys before but the new item link it is much much worse.
    Always enter your item links and smileys at the end of your WCs now

    Dunno if anyone mentioned this, but shards are no longer stackable in your bank/inventory. Each one takes up a specific slot, which is highly annoying when trying to combine a bunch. -.-
    Some people risk to employ me

    Some people live to destroy me

    Either way they die

    I noticed if you have an expanded inventory and used the DOCKED function, you can no longer right click items stacked in the expanded area to auto place to sell to NPC. Not a huge deal to drag n drop but it is a change.

    Please post anything new you find here b:thanks

    The first obvious thing I noticed is the "GT" next to people in my friend's list.
    Wonder what that is for?

    Confirmed Changes:
    No longer need room 38 to complete chrono (turn in at Cube entry dude)
    Fairy Boxes removed from TT solo mode, 1-1, and 2-1.
    Shorter Boss/Mob name bar.
    GT next to friend list names (no identifiable purpose yet).
    Last Log In information gone.
    Mystics now have buff timer icons for plant summons (but not vital or shell/rez)
    "Item contains RARE ITEM" when you try to npc gear.
    Shortened character limit in World Chat.
    Pillar Pet flowers and glowyness got removed now it is MASSIVE and ugly.
    And some commas have been added to menus to make large numbers easier to read.


    Right click functionality (as mentioned in patch):
    right clicking fashion takes it to wardrobe, not wearing
    right clicking stuff in account stash takes it to bank

    Wow they really dumbed this game down.

    Your second example of what will not work, will work if you need to format the WC that way for whatever reason. Pretype all your text, then click in the middle or the beginning or wherever you want your link and insert it last.
