The link to EqchangesV23 isn't working for me at the time of this posting--giving a 404 not found error.

EDIT: seems to have been fixed within about 5 minutes of this posting

I don't normally put bug fixes in the patch notes unless I need feedback on them. It has been suggested that I should in the case of the skill rates. So the OP has been edited.

For other issues like slam accuracy, etc.. If I said it was fixed in the bug thread, then it will be in there.

ditto

And as I get to them, I shift factions closer to how they "should" be. Those too are not in patch notes.

does the ashenbone drake resist fix include a fix for dracoliche as well? draco seems to have the highest resist rate of any mob i've encountered, aside from sky efreetis, and i just figured it was due to some problems with that particular skeletal dragon model. i've tried all the lures on draco, and regardless of what i use he can wind up resisting 50%+ of them.

Kanras: NPCs rotate between current heading and target heading when fleeing or following grids.


Does that mean it will be less impossible to beat down stuff that's fleeing and at 19%?

. His hit box is the size of a flea and I think he is a belly caster. Granted I only played a wiz a few times on Draco. I have landed for full on Draco chain casting non stop in the past to get like 8k + damage. I noticed whenever I got a resist was because he was pushed to far. I deleted all my logs or I would post that fight. Try being right in his ass and see how it turns out.

I assume the issue with feared NPCs not turning to face before changing direction is fixed?

I remember getting decent experience on my warrior here on P99 from the beginning of the Gem Inlaid Gauntlets quest by turning in Tanned Split Paw Scrolls in South Qeynos to Umvera Dekash. I just tried the quest again in North Qeynos on my shaman but Umvera Dekash just ate all of the scrolls and nothing happened.
