Patch Notes: December 1st, 2014

[Freakish]

The last Hoshkar I played on my necro I cast Pyro (it landed) then ran 300 feet away and stood over the lava since nothing else would have landed.

There are no corners to be cut here!

I am excited about changes made for necros in PvP. Full heal on lifetap still needs to happen but other than that splurt and pyrocur will now hit for at least 1-2 ticks before being dispelled lol. As far as qvox and Levant go, meh was good while it lasted...makes room for one more dot or shadow step for PvP.

Pras staff for all their hard work

Did the changes to rogue hide make it into this patch as well? I thought I remembered that a reversion to the old way hide worked was planned for the next patch

This is a fantasy. It's possible that too many mobs see invis, but I will never believe that there were different "levels" of see invis until Shoud of Stealth was added. Yes, I play a rogue here and did so also for many years on live. If any changes are needed on this front, it is to 1) reduce the % chance that a mob will spawn with the innate ability to see invis, and 2) add the "You suspect that this creature can see you" message that informed a rogue that a see-invis mob is conning indifferent due to faction or sneak. (Maybe this happened for more than just rogues?) I don't recall when this was added - it could be beyond our timeline.

Like I needed another reason to hate my necro...
Levant and Quivering Veil of Xarn only at night!?!?!?!?!

Excellent patch!

Curious what evidence was used for lowering the Make Poison cap to 200. I'm not finding any threads on this in the bugs forum.

Great work by our Devs. Pras all around.

[Jeisenne]

Thank you all for your hard work on this. It's definitely appreciated!

[dragolyche]

thank you

Overall a good patch, thank you devs.

One thing I have to complain about though, making the screen tinted so dark now is just miserable. I understand trying to recreate "classic" feel, but this is taking it too far, and just making this awful to play. Not to mention it messes with the darkness of the rest of the windows on my computer. I often like to play P99 while also working on something, but I can't do that if you're going to make all my windows so dark.

You guys really need to undo this change, it's a TERRIBLE idea, and does nothing but make me want to play less.
