Patch Notes May 17th, 2010

Really would like specifics on the ogre thing, I'm not noticing much.

[*]Haynar: Items purchased from vendors will now have the correct charges.

Not classic. Golem wands, Vox rez stick, etc. could all be recharged this way.

A choice should be made to either try to make the server 100% like it was back in classic or how it should have been. Classic "features" are getting disabled while other elements are being changed to better reflect a classic experience; it's getting confusing.

E.g. the above fix vs. changing the name of a mob back to a typo (like it was).

First of all, what was left out of the patch notes was that we did indeed impliment the 'bug' that existed back in the day of being able to recharge items with vendors. What you don't realize is that your recollection of performing the bug is not exactly how it worked.

Second, while we aim to deliver the classicness the best we can, there are certain bugs that are simply that, bugs, and just because it took SOE so long to fix them doesn't mean it takes us the same amount of time. Some bugs can be left in, but most should be fixed.

[Ripcord]

Not having auto fire was a bug! No reason melee had auto but ranged didn't until so much later, the ranger hating sony devs were just bugging out. Get it?

[Kaleb]

The removing xp from damage done soley by DS is a little premature. Kunark was out long before that was changed.

I can't remember exactly how it worked, but I think you needed two of the same item; one with charges and the one without that you are recharging...

[Khebahl]

I feel kind of idiotic asking .. and I did try to do a search prior to asking .. but when patches are done, are they all server side or are client side files updated as well?

Many thanks for running this server gentlemen (and ladies if applicable) and bringing back some great gaming days of yore!

I remember being able to sell and buyback items worked up through mid Luclin. I know for a fact at least res staff off Vox worked. Not sure about all items

i started in luclin and the sell/buy back to recharge was still working. but it wasn't strict sell and buy back.. I think it had something to do with 2 of the item being sold and bought back. one with charges first and then the second sold will become like the first .. something like that

[nilbog]

lol if you guys know how it works, go do it then. All the hints the developers have given are not enough? It makes me think you didn't do it the first time around.
