Added to the stuff on test, here's 1.38A: ============================================= Dark Age of Camelot Test Version 1.38A Release Notes December 6, 2001 ============================================= NEW THINGS AND FIXES ==================== - Players will no longer take falling damage when riding horses. - Falling damage has been relaxed when running across the terrain - you should only take falling damage when you run off the edge of a cliff or jump off of a wall or high building. - Falling damage is meant to keep people from jumping off of keep walls or down pits in dungeons to abuse RVR and monster pathing. If you're at full hits, you will never take enough damage to kill you from one fall (99% maximum). However, if you've been hit by a monster or player, a subsequent fall may kill you. - We fixed an issue where relics would respawn in a state where they were not carryable. - The percent chance to hit with your second weapon when dual wielding has been increased (thus increasing the aggregate DPS for dual wielders). Likewise, the damages for left axe have been increased. RvR Frontier Keeps: The well-trained Lords and guards in the frontier keeps should now be using their bows and spells regardless of distraction. An additional "Border keep" patrol should now originate at each of the frontier keeps in the same zone as the border keep to explore the regions near the border keep. Note that this patrol depends upon the home Frontier keep for support, and if this keep is lost, this patrol does not generate for the enemy. WORLD NOTES =========== Hibernia Faction: The enemy factions of the cluricauns and leprechauns will now give positive faction when you kill the opposing faction. Monster Encounters: The bug causing certain Icestriders in Uppland to be un-hittable has been fixed. Midgard Quests / NPCs: The merchant who sells leather, metal, and wood is back in Gna Faste. He was unintentionally removed when the vault keeper Idonna was added to the area. Midgard guards will no longer salute members of opposing realms. Quest: Protecting the Healer: Players who traded in their Nightsworn sword to Saydyn and received a Healer's Defender and cannot use it should return to Saydyn in Huginfell. Give Saydyn the Healer's Defender and he will return your Nightsworn sword. Also, Saydyn will no longer tell melee-classes they cannot use the sword. Quest: Price of Excellence: Players who did the quest prior to the level of the quest being raised may return to the drunken dwarf in Jordheim to upgrade their hammer by completing a small quest. Players will have to turn in Ulfgar's Hammer to get the quest for the new hammer. Albion Quests / NPCs: Quests: Legend of the Lake & Hands of Fate Players were receiving a fully functional Ebony Collar of the Dead when slaying the Shaman Aslis. It was intended that this object be a non-functional intermediary item up till the 30th level Hands of Fate epic. At that time players were to hand this temporary item to Loremaster Alain and receive the fully functional collar. This update will brings the Legend of the Lake epic back in line with the above. Quest: Guild preparation Problem existed where an Acolyte could complete step one and not gain any response from their trainer when returning to complete this quest. This has now been resolved. OBJECT NOTES ============ - Dread Blackscale armor pieces should now all have the proper AF and con. - Manifested Terror Armor pieces should now all have the proper AF and con. - Ruby Weave Robes should now have the proper AF and con.
