Summer 2012 Content Update

[Peaches]

Ahh, was going to go start my quest as ranger for that ability. Ah well, will wait....

[AmonGwareth]

Any chances that it wasn't intended and the current Prototypes will be restored to prepatch stats - to be more specifically - without caps?

By not changed what we meant was that existing techs would not be removed. It was intended that all (non-t6) claws would have the caps.

After completing Amtoo's Failure I, he does not give out the second quest.

After completing Amtoo's Failure I, he does not give out the second quest.

That is a known issue, reported in the game bugs section.

[Xanthia]

Quest "Forest Skulk Threat II" now properly defines what to kill in addition to the Elder and Shaman. It also provides feedback once you have recovered the Odd-Shaped Artifact.

This part of the quest appears to be broken now. I looted the Odd-Shaped Artifact and the quest says "Return with word of your victory (and the Odd Artifact) to Sergeant Jonis in Bristugo" but when I greet him he just gives me the default dialogue so I can't continue with the quest. I think the problem might be due to the fact the Odd-Shaped Artifact is attuned but not sure.

[Smaug]

Was there a rebate on plot/lair pricing? My lair cost me about 7g 500s when I bought it. Its now priced at about 2 1/2g and I didn't get anything.

Smaug

There was a rebate, yes. If believe that you did not get it, you will have to submit a support ticket.

[Holth]

There is a lvl 97 blight anchor just down the hill from Aughundell across the road from the tavern we just REBUILT. Wasn't this spawn point supposed to be moved out of town?

There are at least 30 adds with it .. even with 250,000 health I don't think the tavernkeeper would survive this assault.

Thaalia of Order

Folks, you either want a war with the Aegis or not... You can't have it where the war with the aegis is only where it's convenient. The anchor was moved further away, but yes, it still exists. Not going to move it again without removing it completely, and that's not something that a majority of our players want, I don't think.

[Xanthia]

New Trismus Guard is spamming main chat with the message "All is well." being repeated multiple times within a few seconds which is really annoying. Can you please fix it so he only says it once every few minutes?

I can look into this, but again, this is either something that you want or you don't. You can place him on your ignore list and it should work. If it doesn't, that's a bug that our client team will need to work on.

[Knossos]

Now that Fabric Isle now has an arrival pad. and that this arrival pad is accessible from portals having settlement destinations, it would seem that the Portal at Fabric Isle should have Settlement destinations rather than Scorpion Isle Destinations.

Knossos

No because Fabric Isle and the other islands are not "settlements". We made an exception so that it is easier to get to Scorpion Isle by adding Fabric Isle, but as a whole Scorpion Isle is separated and you will need to port to it and then use the portals on it to get around. They are not all settlements.

• Dragon Tool Claws now require a minimum skill in Mining and Quarrying equal to what they receive from their school (i.e. 1, 140, 280, 420, 560 and 700 respectively by Tier), a Stat Cap for Lairshaping, Scalecrafting and Spellcrafting that is 250, 450, 650, 850, 1050 with Tier6 uncapped, and a crafting level requirement of 1 (on all Claws).

Can we maybe revisit this? Grabbed my Master Tool Claw form, and tried to make my Adamant Tool Claw...
Minimum = 1000
Optimal = 1225

With the Mith tool claw, in order to use tool crystals, you get capped at 1050, just 50 points above the min. Any chance of raising the cap to 1250?

I dropped my claw, put on my scalecraft scales, dragon buffed up... 1216

T5 (shining) wisps have no Enriched Wisps, they spawn Enriched Pale Wisps instead, which can be harvested for shining essence.
Along with the error of the Weakened Shining Wisps producing essence backwards; they also regenerate essence backwards. they regenerate the regular essence they produce when dead, but do not generate the tainted essence they generate when living.

Got it. Thanks. Its not due to the artifact, actually.

They aren't actually Pale Wisps, but Shining Wisps in disguise as Pale Wisps (i.e. its just their names that are messed up). The reversed resources are a known issue.

[AmonGwareth]

The Item Creation Screen correctly depicts the above change, The legend on the Techniques themselves do not. Thus a wrong impression of these Techniques will be seen when a crafter links any one of them for others to see..

Good catch. Got it.

I just had the displeasure of making some adamantium bars with my Helian for the first time since the patch was applied. I was unable to reach 3:1 on bars, in spite of having 1440 smelting skill at a t6 smelter. I tried using the appropriate crystals in both the prototype tool claw and the new adamantium tool claw I made earlier. No go, 4:1 on bars with both claws. Prior to the recent update, I needed to hit 1425 smelting skill to get 3:1.... I really hope this change is unintentional, and not part of an unannounced revision of the skill targets for smelting adamantium bars.

Will this situation be corrected in an forthcoming update? Thanks Development Team for all your hard work !

No change was made to the skill ranges of Adamantium Bars and there is no skill cap on a T6 tool claw so nothing that would impede your ability to reach higher skill levels.

Thanks for the prompt reply Amon! I'm glad to hear that the change that IS actually in effect was not intentional. I described my experience as thoroughly as I could, and would appreciate a more detailed investigation please . I'll be happy to submit a support ticket if that is the best way to go about handling this issue; I just hate to add to support's workload if there is a decent chance that the problem is more related to recent programming changes .

quest "Ted's Assignment" gave nothing as reward

[Velea]

quest "Ted's Assignment" gave nothing as reward

It is set up slightly wrong. It will give you 10 Festival Tokens, but only if you don't have any in inventory. Should give you 10 regardless, and that will be fixed for the next update.

something is wrong with the fish

You can only see them
if you are with head under water- and even then- some see some do not.
(but all drown if they forget to breath- so take care while fishing )
