Blight Update 164

[Velea]

Changes

* Greatly modified the spawns of Bloodsnout Grouks, Purple Spiders, and Blood Skulks around Blood Swamp.
* Modified slightly where and how often Ironsilk spawns in Blood Swamp to cover a larger area.

Fixes

* Valley of Repose Black Pepper plants should spawn again on the small farm.
* Valley of Repose area cotton plants have begun to grow again.
* Fixed a bug with Tutorial Outfitter quests where someone could bypass the first quest and go right to the second.
* Fixed Lt. Carmichael's Delgarath Militia quests so that they should be working properly now.
* Fixed Gaileach's greetings so that she should give her quests properly.
* Fixed broken link in quest "Blackhammer: Protect the Farm"
* Fixed the missing road near the Valley of Tolrath
* Fixed incorrect coordinates in quest "Dralnok's Doon (Chapter 1): Search the Valley of Tolrath"
* The wall that protects the community of Rihki outside Aughundell has been completely planned now and will need the Gifted to help build it. (The dragon perch in the sky above the wall has, however, been removed. It was making the dwarves nervous.)
* Dwarven Skeletons in the Valley of Tolrath will now drop tier-appropriate loot
* Sign names in Delgarath should now display properly
* Risen Bioscholars now appear correctly in the world.
* Carrion Crawlers now appear correctly in the world.

Known Issues

* We are still working on troubleshooting the problem players on Blight are having with their crafting abilities not listing correctly.
* Resources for the second and third parts of the tunnel leading down to Dralnok's Doom can not be applied by standing at the model itself. Standing up where the original opening to the tunnel is will allow you to apply resources, however, if you wish to try.

Also Velea,

Is this occurring AFTER this patch? And which monsters? Gotta have some details please. There are LOTS of monsters in the game.

Dung piles Some times scorpions

Currently testing every thing out will provide a complete list of bugs tweaks and changes very shortly

[Velea]

Please note that unless something was specifically mentioned in the patch notes as having been fixed everything that WAS an issue in delta 163 still is an issue.

So dung piles we know about. Scorpions.. there's at least 4 types I can think of, so I'll need to know what scorpions.

[Dakoren Ironhand]

Sign names in Delgarath should now display properly.

• One sign is fixed the second sign isnt
• Quest:Albans Revenge points to a Massive Risen Grouk, though I haven't been able to find the monster anywhere near the surrounding area
• Quest: Biggletorque: The Archmage Darkstaf points to Gregory Darkstaf in Dalimond, however he is not there
• Quest: Blackhammer: Stop the attack asks to kill a monster named Risen Necromancer, however this monster is nowhere in the surrounding area.
• Quest: Earn Title Purifier says you need to kill 1000 beetles however the counter only says 25
• Item: Millies Apple Pie icon is only 1 square large, I think this should be 4
• After changing craft schools you regain your crafting abilities, when you relog you lose them
• Dung Pile is invisible

[Velea]

• Quest: Earn Title Purifier says you need to kill 1000 beetles however the counter only says 25

The journal and text for that quest is messed up. It has been fixed internally, but you'll need to drop the quest and get it again in order for it to be right after the next delta.

Dung pile drops no loot and has 0 offensive ability’s

It's a pile of dung! What exactly are you expecting to get as "loot" that someone would actually want? And how would it have abilities?

[awdz]

hey, one thing's dung is another thing's... umm... fertilizer?
besides, you never know what's buried! there must be a pony in there somewhere! ;-)

Bugs with content patch 164

Technomancers 100 % immune to slash
Risen animations 100% immune to slash

So what's the bug?

[lightning claw]

So what's the bug?

Oh nothing to important other than dragons are becoming obsolete cause the bulk of there attacks are slash damage in nature. I had to find a blighted claw just to kill them Life works wonders on them i was one shooting them lol




Edit to Velea
I know that some organism live in dung, so it should spawn Flys or what not, and if the sun hits that crap (Pun fully intended ) The way its designed it would bubble, and release gas of some kind, and possibly a corrosive substance.

also dont know if u could do this but if a dragon would to use one of its flame attacks on it you could have an insta death thing with them cause you ignited a methane bomb boy what a way to go

[CottenCandy]

The Greater Ghosts and for some reason Dropping Mighty Ghost vapors instead of the greater for me, but i was there earlier and got a greater so not sure what's up with that lol

Also the Spiritist in the dead pool take 2+ hours to get your 20 i did two hours and Gothos is now going on 5 hours and he's only gotten 10 so far out of the 20.... Needs more spawns please

Well there you go.

Misplaced fire effect at 27611, 26583 (Millie's house). Millie seems awfully calm for having a burning porch.

Chest of Mabel at quords 26599/26934 is completely immune to any damage type

[Zexoin]

About the Drain Bolt III quest, you may want to check the Dead Pool undead fiends spawn. There are a lot of dryads and elves spawning, but few to none fiends, and 4 times over 5 those fiends are sorcerers, not spiritists. I spent a half hour there and could find only one fiend spiritist.

The Drain Bolt animation is not the regular spelcasting one ; is that intended ?

Also, the combat window doesn't display the damage done to the enemy with Drain Bolt II.

[AmonGwareth]

Chest of Mabel at quords 26599/26934 is completely immune to any damage type

Not EVERY damage type. You just haven't found the correct one yet.

the DeadPool is part of the T2 revamp so will be addressed at a later date.

Dragon ability Breath of flame burst now dose blight damage when its flame

No, it doesn't. You must have had something that was converting the damage.

Dung piles invisible

This is a known issue.

Scorpians sometimes invisible and need to have there slash resistance increased I still can one shot them also increase their aggressiveness

Invisible is a known issue.
Corrected the resistances.

Sand crabs although can not hit me they still are 100 % Immune to slash damage

Looking into it.

Technomancers 100 % immune to slash
Risen animations 100% immune to slash

Yes, they are. Try something else.

Dung pile drops no loot and has 0 offensive ability’s

As intended.

The Drain Bolt animation is not the regular spelcasting one ; is that intended ?

Yes, it is.

The Greater Ghosts and for some reason Dropping Mighty Ghost vapors instead of the greater for me, but i was there earlier and got a greater so not sure what's up with that lol

Which greater ghosts? Where?

weapon socketing large has a text error

asks for 30 travertine boards

when applied to a weapon it asks for 30 thornwood boards

Got it. Thanks.

• One sign is fixed the second sign isnt

Got it. Again.

• Quest:Albans Revenge points to a Massive Risen Grouk, though I haven't been able to find the monster anywhere near the surrounding area

They are there, keep hunting.

• Quest: Biggletorque: The Archmage Darkstaf points to Gregory Darkstaf in Dalimond, however he is not there

You are right, he isn't. That is as intended. But there's another bug that I found in it.

• Quest: Blackhammer: Stop the attack asks to kill a monster named Risen Necromancer, however this monster is nowhere in the surrounding area.

There is, but it should have asked you to kill a Reanimator not a Necromancer.

• Item: Millies Apple Pie icon is only 1 square large, I think this should be 2

Looking into it. Thanks.
