Kundarak Delving boots question

What did Mod 9 change about this item?

[Strakeln]

The item itself has not changed (to my knowledge), but one of the more common applications of it has. Previously, FoM (in the form of the spell, boots, or by virtue of being WF) allowed one to "jump out" of the Abbot's encasement. That is no longer the case... if you get encased, you're stuck until it either wears off, is broken down, or you die.

I must say, however... the fact that the Abbot puzzle items drop on death now makes this less of a big deal than it sounds. I was in there running around during the final beatdown when one of the tanks got encased. I noticed a boulder lying on the ground in front of me (I had done goggles), so I picked it up and equipped it... three tosses later, the tank was free. It worked very well.
