This is a bug. Two facings of the empty/full versions are not dyeable with the furniture dye tub. We'll fix it!

@Dot Warner - they partially hue, just the countertop part
@MalagAste - you can pour water into the sink from a water pitcher.
Please do. Thank you Kyronix for clarifying.

Oh and @Kyronix I also want to add I give it an A+++ That you all made it able to be turned ALL 4 Directions! That makes me VERY happy.

In order of appearance: Compassion, Honesty, Honor, Humility, Justice, Sacrifice, Spirituality, Valor


Reminder: The banners are 10k points each + shard bound. Meaning in order to earn them/buy them you have to get it from the shard you want them on. Pretty darn nice deco rewards.

@MalagAste - you can pour water into the sink from a water pitcher.
Might want to mention that the bar piece has to be in your pack to be able to pour water into it, other wise it says "Locked down resources cannot be used!"

Any way to make the sink a SOURCE of water, like the water troughs when filled? I think many people would prefer to use these for cooking instead of having a giant ugly water trough in their kitchen! :p

Unfortunately its an either or, either it behaves like a water trough or it behaves like a water container (barrels, tubs, pitchers). We thought more choice is better, so you can have an empty and a full version. You should be able to load it up with water like the other water containers.

I've always though the water troughs make nice dish tubs hehe.

Beware that when you fill the bar section with the sink, while it's in your backpack, it falls out of your backpack and lands right on top of your character. Same thing happens if you put it in your character's backpack to empty it with an empty pitcher, i.e., the emptied bar section falls out of your character's backpack and lands right on top of it.

Hmm... As a water container... It's a bit useless though, not being able to be interacted with while locked down and all. Who wants to have to have to retrieve the thing each time they need some water? Then have to lock it back down. Over and over. Do you honestly see someone doing that? o_O

Empty and full versions are nice, don't get me wrong, it'd just be nicer if it was actually useful.

I currently use a water trough for a sink in a few homes, though I'd prefer having a sink that didn't look like it belonged in a manger. :p

Someone already posted that information. They keep their color, they aren't rezable without skill anymore, they aren't tradeable, and they are only tamable by the original owner.

WOW! And this is only for the darn PVPers?
PvE'ers get furniture and puppies.
But only PvP'ers seem to get the cool stuff.
If you don't like something, like i don't like PvP, not even extreme cool rewards can make it interesting. It didn't work with PS back then and won't work with this one too...

The murder count wipe item is a bad idea -- for the reasoning see every thread ever done about allowing reds to come to Trammel and remain red. Was this notion discussed or brought up earlier and I just missed it? This probably was done to allow PKs to participate in the in-town fights in the new system but I'd think there likely were other ways of accomplishing that. Too late now, I'd guess. The consequences of this will be far-reaching.

-Galen's player
I believe it is a great idea but sure it should cost some VvsV points

Too many blessed items in the list. I hope these have been altered for Siege. No way to test on the Test Center.

Same with the Royal Pardons. We don't need them on siege. It will only breed more notos.
If only a one times remove, I believe it would be ok. People get older and some are getting peaceful

do the artifact rewards in the VvV system have the same mods as the old faction artifact rewards? or are they just normal crystalline rings etc.

With the removal of factions, will holy/evil dyed items be returned to normal?

See my post above. They keep the bonus mods the faction versions have now. Also see the section about the new equipment that was added.

Side note: they put the patch notes in the patcher window! Go team go!

A sad day for all our T-Hunters :( Removed forged pardons from Slim just to add this new uber pardons?

Not gonna hold my breath for the new system. Everything they put in lately proofed to be perfectly griefable (despise, blackthorns). I just hope this long time on TC1 will not be used as an excuse to not fix the things once they get properly tested on prodo shards.

Am I being optimistic to assume a player can't empty my sink with a pitcher and steal it? lol

It is very worth noting that the pardon is shard bound. So, Atl will NOT be seeing a big flood of these anytime soon.

As many doubts as I had about its appearance, I think its popularity will be relatively low to the randomized +10 SoT. That was well played devs. ;)

I'm not sure if this will be fixed with the release of the new AI, but the patch broke Pinco's UI health bars.
Before I could drag players health bars during pvp and they would stay on my screen forever. Now when someone runs off my screen their health bar goes poof as well.
Its not a game breaker, but defiantly annoying during pvp fights to have to re-grab peoples health bars constantly.

Is their anyway to fix this in the short term?

Classic client health bars still stay on screen when the people/mobs leave the area
