·1930 words·10 mins

Going to post minor changes based on bug reports in this thread.

*Shapeshifting key is now a proper key, goes in keychain. No longer a wand.

*Temple ruins trigtrap updated to a proc so that it functions with stealthed players.

*Basin of balms now loading properly.

*As posted earlier by Splork Ether Worm can now properly hit ether targets. Will update help files at some point in future with correct name of form, which is ether worm, not spirit worm.

*Food keyword added to several food types.

*Persephone food fixed as mentioned in a previous thread.

*Many spellbook restrictions fixed, please continue to report any bad ones you find.

*Book of cleansing confessions floor object will no longer load as random treasure item.

*Various mob and object keywords added.

*Replaced nogate flag on mistakenly gateable room in desert of despair.

*Odd characters no longer appearing after maximum legion message for animate dead. Thx Splork.

*ration weight reduced

*recall weight reduced

*Roberts, Kalamari, necrotic polar bear procs cleaned up.

*Roberts mob level increased.

*Cure deafness has been repaired. No more uncurable deafness. Thanks Breeze.

*Ettin musician proc tuned down a bit and repaired.

*Duplicate autoquest on Rumar removed.

*Deck of undead miscreants for Luna’s crypt autoquest is now non-rentable, meaning it will fall from your inventory when you rent or void-out (void disconnect). This will prevent corruption of the values. You just have to complete it in one session. If you fail to complete it in one session, you can always receive another deck from the quester and try again.

*Breeze and Splork have corrected a number of the reported help file issues.

*Someone requested that the keyword ‘plain’ be added to some of the potions with single color keyword to clarify shop purchases. This was actually implemented a while back. So fyi, buy plain-purple will always give you a potion of remove poison regardless of what other purple potions precede it in the list.

*A number of (null) messages fixed from proc scripts in Nexialism and elsewhere.

*Pentres proc updated upon request such that silence will function, however note this also means his caster behavior will be different.

*Fire vampire silence issue addressed by making him non-silenceable. It will always fail and he will attack you.

Hijacking JB’s thread since he asked me to look into it, but..

Morning Glory duration should be fixed on reboot :)

fixed typo in deathblow message
 changed
   Impossible against this species!.
 to

*basic backpacks changed to large and small backpack to distinguish between them.

*Whoever’s AH vault was at western dead-end of housing district, your vault has been moved one room further west to extend the district. Also it is scheduled for demolition in exactly one hundred and fifty years, to make space for an intergalactic bypass, along with the rest of the planet. Thanks for your understanding.

*The gate between shadow dale and shadow realm now works and has a key that loads on guardian vrock at a fairly generous rate.

Van gossips– ‘Burning acid hits arms of the abyss in the eyes, blinding them!’

Van gossips– ’this seems inappropriate’

Van gossips– ‘arms don’t have eyes!’

*Arms of the abyss are now innately blind / can not be blinded. I did not give them echolocation so they will be less of a nuisance if you accidentally attack them, as you can disengage instead of having to destroy.

*Canopied Arbor guild spellbook in bh can no longer be taken.

*Young cleric on VK now cures people of hack disease.

A young cleric says ‘That’s a nasty cough you have there Clint.’

A young cleric says ‘Let me help you with that.’

A young cleric utters the words ’ canduswazz eugzagz'

A young cleric smiles happily.

*Spurs autoquest on SS supply merchant, max player level removed.

Vicor in spire unflagged as epic. He was never intended to be one. He will no longer appear on dynamic map.

Reversed order of affects on potion of pure darkness so that the dark cloak can work.

Dwarven Musicologist will no longer buy items at three times his selling price.

Acid Golem will now spawn during house of Ancient Darkness in addition to his usual House of Twivel.

Banded leather sleeves are fixed to give AC thru an armor value instead of an affect, meaning it won’t show up in your msdp affects as Armor== -1 anymore.

Report any other piece of armor like this via bugs cmd and I will fix them.

Someone reported that if you enter arena while grouped, the group gets dispelled, wherever they happen to be.

Now you will not be able to enter the solo arenas while grouped.

Please report any problems. Thanks.

*Recalling from moon temple in SS no longer possible.

*Kangaroo Pouch autoquest in athenaem item correction, the correct item to receive from teacher and turn in to tooler is “rare tools”. If you have “faltering petals” then you need to exchange them with me or another imm for “rare tools”.

*Greater Moon Avatar in moon temple will now only spawn during house of the Frost Giant and the Lesser Moon Avatar will only spawn during the house of the Winter Wolf. Killing greater/female avatar still summons Selene epic and lesser/male summons Bil, it’s just that now those avatars are astrology based. Blue moonstone still loads on both avatars. Yes both could spawn at the same time. No I haven’t yet figured out anything cool to trigger when that happens.

*Coliseum wait timer fixed. Wait time is sposed to be 10 min and it was only at 2 min.

*Coliseum broadcast, I added room broadcasts that occur every minute, to indicate the start of the timer cycle and give you some timing during fight. Let me know if you don’t like it.

*Pagoda of Enlightenment now has substantial gold. Look for it on the humans, gods, and monkeys, not so much on the inanimate objects and fauna. It also now enjoys an xp boost. All mobs there have been purged, so they are unaged as of the time of this message, but you may want to check for eq pops.

*Elite Draconian Warrior updated from old honor code to new honor code so as to be compatible with bonus honor. Please report any other raid mobs which fail to give bonus honor and I can update them.

*Coliseum loot moved epics, raid leaders, and raid mobs proportionally (epics best, then raider leader, then minion)
