DAoC asks players to comment on 1.87C release notes

During this holiday season, we can only imagine developers impatiently staring at their calendars and wondering what they will do with their days off. While this can be true for most, this just doesn’t apply with the development team of MMO Dark Age of Camelot. In fact, they recently came up with the release notes for Test Version 1.87c Battleground and Tradeskill Changes.

This is important as the said release notes are looking for feedback from players. According to developer Mythic Entertainment, all comments should be calm and factual. The comments will then be tallied and the development team will try working on them before 1.87 goes live. Also, players who want to provide insights should be logged into Pendragon.

The list is actually quite long which is reflective of the efforts put in by the development team. While the whole thing can be accessed via the Read link, the more pertinent details are listed below:

• The /ignore command again works across servers on a cluster.
• The /ignore command will now filter out /yell.
• Fixed an issue where certain Hibernian Mauler trainers would direct players to visit the wrong trainer in Tir na Nog to start a quest.
• The Chieftain and Chieftess NPCs in Midgard’s Shrouded Isles no longer display as being worth Master Level Experience.
• When a controlled pet parries or blocks a message will now appear in the controller’s combat window.
• Accounts that are Labyrinth enabled can now reach Champion Level 10 regardless of what client they are using.
• Accounts that are Darkness Rising enabled but not Labyrinth enabled can now only accrue Champion Level Experience up to Champion Level 5 regardless what their current Champion Level is.
• Accounts that are not at least Darkness Rising enabled cannot accrue any Champion Level Experience.
• (Pendragon Only) The new taunt ability that was introduced as a style effect in 1.87b has been changed to now be an offensive proc that a pet will cast at the command of the pet owner. All pets that could use Enrage before will now offer command menu options to walk a pet owner through the steps on using the new ability.
• Known issue: There is only a graphical effect when the pet uses the Enrage and no text feedback. This will be addressed in an upcoming version in this patch cycle.
