Blight Client 396.18.0 Istaria Community Manager August 13, 2018
	Features: The Saris, Sslik, and Khutit races have had their emotes revamped, similar to the dragons’ revamp of last year. This means: All emotes on these races will now play sound without requiring an _s added to the name. All sounds have been updated to utilize existing racial sounds rather than cartoonish sound effects or music. A few gender-related typos have been fixed in the emote text. A few animations were broken due to utilizing the wrong racial animations (kick, kickspin, please/beg, explain). These have been updated with animations that are proper for the race, preventing jaw clipping and other awkward broken limbs. All of these races can now use the same animations, meaning that the saris have now gained the emotes ‘explain’, ‘drink’, and ‘kick’! Various emotes that were simply renamed versions of other emotes have been hidden from the user interface, but can still be accessed via chat commands. These emotes include: beg, bye, cheer, growl, hello, peer, and shake. A new emote has been added to these three races: hover. Dragons have gained five new emotes: craft, pick, stand, stand2, and warcry. The original ‘stand’ emote can still be found under the new name ‘statue’.   Fixes: The Fox pet no longer howls. Icons for Draconic Celebration Cake and the bone components from the Almighty Cauldron have been corrected to not be cut off. Gnomes, dwarves, humans, half-giants, elves, and fiend females no longer use an incorrect animation file for gathering resources like sand and water. Treant Transition Animations
