Patch Notes August 24, 2010. (Previously Updated)

[nilbog]

These are the missing patch notes from the 24th. All of these changes should be active.

Code

• Rogean: Entities dying while under illusions will now keep their appearance as their corpse.
• Haynar: Added support for pulse based bard mana songs. This type of song will not generate an icon on the bard or others. Multiple bards singing a pulse based song, will stack their mana regen effects on those classes that have mana and can regen mana by songs.
• Haynar: Resinging a song that is already started will no longer give a song fades message for the bard.
• Haynar: Mana regen effects from spells will no longer work on bards (Including Necro Twitch)
• Haynar: Items with spell clickies or spells used to gain mana, such as manastone, modulating rod will no longer be clickable by bards, even if the bard is a usable class.
• Haynar: Spectres have remembered how to slice.
• Haynar: Spell worn off messages make their return in a more classic format.
• Bumamgar: Spell resist/fizzle/immune messages moved to the proper filter (instead of Shout)
• Bumamgar: Mobs that fear will no longer continue to focus their attention on pets that have been feared, instead preferring non-feared targets.
• Bumamgar: Pets will no longer be added to hatelist of engaged mobs during passive aggro checks. This prevents mobs that are FD on a group/raid from aggroing pets first.

I had no idea lions were threatening to druids on live. Never played a druid back then.

[hueylewis187]

O yeah , if a lion jumped you at the druid rings in nk. Than you attacked the lion in anyway. You were dead ; )

Just like holly in Qhills. If she was near and you were fighting any animal. bear , wolf w/e she would kill you. Not skellies or gnolls just the animals.

I do remember the holly part. She was nasty if you crossed an animal.

[Auvdar]

Early in live IRC Lions were always threatening to druids. As well as some wolfs. ( I remember a few wolfs jumping me in EK. )

[Savok]

I never remembered any animal being mad at druids.

Spirell: Added White Treant Fists to PoS global loot drops

This mean they drop off any mob potentially?>
