I thought necro's were supposed to be getting some love.

The only thing I read about that was:

Dust off your necromancers, they will be gods in pvp once again! (soon)

And whelp, I'm not sure what he was talking about. Any suggestions for improvement are always welcome though.

Nilbog: The previous changes to Tracking have been reversed until a better solution is found.

What does this mean? Druid track is uber good again?

I would like to second someone's question regarding the tracking change. What is this supposed to mean? Are druids supposed to be able to get higher than 50 track now? If so it doesn't seem to be working - I've been hitting track all morning with no skill bumps.

The changes made to Tracking last patch worked, but the client didn't like them. Even though proper sorting is done server side, once it reaches the client, it was wrong and shouldn't show nearest npcs.

The 20 npc limit was removed.

existing pieces remain unchanged?

Since the pieces are era-appropriate, there was no change made except for the enchanting of bars.

Not sure if it was part of the certain spells being unresistable now - but the alliance line works again (tested on Andad Fila on my sub twenty enchanter).

Iirc thanks to Kanras for fixing that awhile ago, we just had to wait patiently for the patch.

There are possibly a few kanras changes which were not noted in the changelog.

Hmm, Saltwater Seaweed no longer stacks? i only had 2 from a fishing frenzy last night but yeah it doesn't seem stackable as it got merged into a single item.

Correct. I'm not sure when that change went in, but the seaweed was not stackable until 2005.

You guys were letting Harmony be cast in VP up until this patch?!

VP is an outdoor zone, and therefore had outdoor rules. Research was found that suggested even though outdoor, VP did not allow harmony.

If they proc as players (the pets) why are they not proc'ing weapons they meet the level requirement for now?

Can you explain further? This change should have dealt with Sword of Runes proccing on non-summoned creatures.

Apparently, in conflict with the patch, a guildie has indicated that he just walked by Cros Treewind.

Sigh. Fixed, pending update.

Until that time, you may encounter a Cros Treewind or a Grizzly.

I heard Pres. Obama granted a temporary reprieve.

[Velerin]

Looks like a lot of good changes, especially for pvp.
No workings for pet aggro or frequency of pet casting? Both of which are very low.

Grats to the smiths who stockpiled enchanted bars. Enjoy your insider trading profits.

[Bardalicious]

A warm welcome to Alecta and a big thanks to the whole crew at p99/r99 for these much-needed changes.

Now if only I could find the time to play again! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
