I guess you could always test it by sending 10K of gold with a BOS and see how many charges it takes.

This was something that just slipped through it's technical jargon for us to keep on record. The patch notes have been updated without our technical jargon.

Balancing changes previously on TC1 were not included in this publish.






Thank you! Cause the balancing thing needs some major editing first....

The other interesting things imo are the new range of exorcism, and the gold weight changes..

Great... Now I can farm silver around the clock and BOS it to the bank.

OH wait I dont do that though I buy and resell it.

Guess I should prepare for the glut of silver coming.


Why the BOS changes? why? why? why?

I know all you legit players were harmed.

What is with the publish not being announced until after it goes live? I've never seen this before. Is this a new policy?

Does the Mirror Image change mean blue players can no longer kill them in tram rule set facets? (with area/summon etc)

Updated patch note:

"Upon death all buff/debuffs that show on the status bar will be removed, also modified attributes reset"

This was missed on the initial run through but it has been added to the patch notes.

Hopefully this was done to solve the problem of buffs that seem to stick. I have one char that everytime it gets hit with an evil omen it sticks until someone casts it on my char again.

Well, that would suck and no doubt. I have had sticky icons, but never the actual affect. Hope this does clear that up for ya.

Why is this being done? Many Buff/Debuff last through death. Now the Buff Bar won't be accurate at all.

Why was this even added to begin with?

Not to mention it's bugged all to hell so now if any of our characters that have Protection and other spells cast on them die, they're SOL until it's fixed, and who knows how long that will take.

I have to ask again, why was this even added to begin with?

Well it will be a pain to re-cast magic reflect and reactive armor.

But I think it's great if people can no longer stone-on Inscription, cast MR / RA, then stone-off Inscription and keep the +5 resists bonus.

the +5 elemental resists have nothing to do with incription.

All inscription did was make it to where, at GM inscription, the Reactive Armor Physical bonus, and the Magic Reflect Physical penalty, offset each other.

At 0 inscription, you can STILL cast the two spells, and end up with a net gain of +5 in each; those are the BASE MODS of those spells, regardless of inscription. What you don't get is a net 0 change in physical (you end up at -20 physical, -16 if human).

So, recasting them from scroll (which a human can do), only requires that you "overbuild" your suit in PHysical resist (which is easy enough to do with spined or barbed leather)

Sorry Devs much love to all-'a-y'all, but this didn't go well.
yeah, that pretty much sums up my evening, Viquire :D



waiting for Neira, she doesn't show.... she doesn't show.... then she shows, but wait, it's not her, it's her cousin Semidar, along with every ophidian and all their ancestors.... most of them of the golden persuasion

yep, time for bed

I'm surprised this one hasn't been commented on:
[SIZE=-1]Exorcism range has been increased to include the entire champ spawn area plus 2 screens in all directions

I think this is a great publish. I'm really excited about the BOS change and the Christmas tree deeds! :love:

Is the publish active now? I can't use my holiday tree deed. It says I must wait until December.

Just wanted to jump in here and submit respectfully that I am very happy to see the content of the publish going in!

I've sounded pretty negative which, actually, is not very like me.

Its the process and the thoroughness or apparent lack thereof that has me, well, funkified.
