That's a very interesting hypothesis. Tell me why the patch files have live eqnews.txt's and why they line up with Live patch dates/events then?
Daldaen drew my attention to a patch note given in November 2000 which says "The spell Torpor received an unintentional reduction in effectiveness.". Coincidentally, that's the last month that Torpor has the mana drain in the spdats. So I sort of think it's not a coincidence.
I think the EQ devs 'unintentionally' let a Test change (Torpor mana drain) leak into Live for a few months before anybody noticed it. But does seem to have been live for most of Kunark. So P99 should implement that if it wants to be faithful, I would think.
