    Nice changes

    Mohs the Diamond Golem now counts as a motherlode when killed
    I've always thought all named golems should be this way. Any thought of changing that? Or are they and I just haven't noticed?

    Fixed the level constraint for Level 15 Trophy Hunter quests

    heh same Sigi, might just have to get a copy over to be curious... Like the sound of dragon breath crystals too, and crystal/lair/scale on tool claws.

    I didn't download neither saris_f_emote.def, nor satyr_f_emote.def, nor saris_f_anim_standard.def, nor satyr_f_anim_standard.def with the patch... nor a new related animation file if any.
    It seems you forgot something.

    I'm very curious to know how the changes have affected trophy drops with the beetles. Have any tested that out yet?

    There were issues with a few files, but we decided to go ahead with the delta rather than hold everything up. The issues have been resolved, and the missing files will be patched out first chance we get.

    Our apologies for the delay.

    I tested the petting zoo (first thing I did, of course, lol). It is soooo cute! The festival food is yummy and the gambling prizes (and odds) are great. A nice balance between biped and dragon items.

    Guess I'll try out the meatier stuff next. Leave it to me to head straight to the cotton candy (for myself) and dead crickets (for the tamed 'animals')!

    Has anybody tested the new loot tables on the giant ice, fire, and flame beetles yet? How has it affected trophies, hoard, and forms?

    I really need to get myself copied over to Blight, lol...

    Why?

    Mage SkillGained/Lvl
    Flame / 10
    Ice / 9
    Mind / 8
    Summoning / 8
    Energy / 10

    *shrug* ...if all someone uses is Fire, no matter what they're fighting (including magma golems, fire beetles & wolves, and lava oastics), then this is a great change that'll help them learn to be a better player.

    See, I DID do that! It was a really good one from Dominos with extra cheese and everything!

    ...But I ate it before it made it there.
