Plane of Hate

Which will still be 4 weeks ahead of schedule. But yeah doing both at same time would suck. Should be at least 3 weeks between the 2. Your taking 7 full weeks away from players to farm Ms/Guise/Rubi/LR/Cyro robe.

Legacy item are supposed to go with sol ro patch which is supposed to be hitting before PoHate, and truthfully everyone had ample time to farm everything if they really wanted them.

At the very least there should a sol ro patch and legacy removal tomorow or sometime in may if they want to respect the correct order more or less.

Your dates are pretty accurate. The only thing I would say is to remember that the P99 Staff said that the First Friday of every month will be the complete month's patch. For example every change for July1999 would have been included in the Feb 7th Fear patch that you referenced.

So May 1st should be all Oct 1999 era changes. No matter if the change was On Oct 1 1999 or Oct 31 1999. All of it comes in, on the first friday of the month. So Focus more on the month the zone/expansion came out, instead of the # of days post-launch.

Yea I kind of can see this, but Nilbog had Hate scheduled with the May patch and Sol Ro with the June patch... Which is clearly backwards... But it also seems clear to me that the devs intended these two to be separate content patches. Which makes sense! Each is a big content patch.

Nilbog removed his timeline from his Green launch post very recently, so I hope they choose to stay true to a classic timeline. Hate and Solro in one patch would make sense too. Hate BEFORE Temple of Sol Ro does not make sense.

Any raiding guilds doing any green livesstreems? I would like to watch this!

Actually rogean removed it this morning after the thread called plane of hate was being chatted about.

More patch messages were found that clarified the release dates of PoF and PoH, and their releases were adjusted accordingly. This isn't a conspiracy, it's incremental improvement.

So what happened to patches the first friday of every month? Its Friday May 1st!

Patches are put out at a random time that the staff decides. Don't forget they have real life jobs to attend to. PoFear launched at like 8-9PM on the First Friday in February.

* February 2020: Plane of Fear
* May 2020: Plane of Hate
* June 2020: Temple of Solusek Ro opens / Legacy items cease to drop
* August 2020: Plane of Sky
* November 2020: Ruins of Kunark
* April 2021: Epics
* July 2021: Scars of Velious

All those people who thought they had at least another 30 days of super-exciting list action and now they can plan to do other things with 84-hour chunks of their time.

That people were number 2 on the list waiting for a day or two and they got screwed that was kind of a dick move. I think they should have just prevented new people from listing. What would have that changed? Anyway, this was a pretty large fakeout on a long-standing published date for a major item of interest in the game so I think the take away here is never believe anything regarding patches or schedules or upcoming anything. Stuff is just going to happen.
