DAOC developers are prepping for an upcoming patch to their old school game that is somehow still quite entertaining despite some lackluster graphics. Here is some information about the enhancements that are being tested for the upcoming patch 1.82j.
NEW THINGS AND BUG FIXES
- Dropping a worn item with a magical effect, which was triggered by wearing it, will now properly remove the magic effect.
- Spiritmaster pets will no longer be destroyed by critical strikes the way brittle guards can be.
- Brittle guards will now obey the leash range field of the spell that is used to summon/charm them. If the monster is ever beyond that leash range, it will despawn.
- Guilds formed by players who were previously in a guild on a different server from the cluster will no longer exhibit crossover issues.
- Houses will now track the server of the guild a player belongs to, so in the case of personal houses owned by players who belong to a guild from another server, the banners will now display properly.
- Casting regeneration spells, such as Blessed Encouragement, Holy Encouragement, Champion’s Encouragement and Friar HoT spells, will no longer break Speed of Sound.
- Melee stuns will no longer apply to targets with the charge ability active.
- (Mordred Only) Heal spells and proc buffs will fail if they target anyone not in the caster’s group, guild, alliance or battlegroup.
- Valkyrie
– Windmill and Roundhouse should now correctly be centered on the target and not the Valkyrie.
CAMELOT CLASSIC WORLD NOTES - Item Notes
– Players may now sell the Trifecta pet objects, garden gnomes, steins, pitchers, mugs, and flowers to NPC’s. The pet objects may now be traded to other players.
TRIALS OF ATLANTIS WORLD NOTES
- Item Notes
– Shade form from Traitor’s Dagger and Shades of Mist now have icons for the shape-change spells and mini-info windows.
DARKNESS RISING WORLD NOTES
- Item Notes –
– Base Ranger Champion Weapons now have the proper graphic associated with them.
- Quest Notes – General
– The Royal Expeditions should now only be offered to players with the Darkness Rising expansion.
NEW FRONTIERS WORLD NOTES
- The NPC’s in the Relic Towns will now attack players from enemy realms.
- The secondary timer on the mechanism that moves an idle player to the relic village has been reduced from 15 minutes to 5 minutes. This means that once you get moved down the hill from the primary border keep and get the accompanying pop-up, you will now have 5 minutes to leave the area versus the previous 15 before you are moved to the relic village.
