[Itchybeard]

Thank you very much for the release notes. Great stuff!

(Edit) I didn't see anything about the Falconry Tree being obtainable (either by Favor or points), and indications about new Favor rewards aren't mentioned. Has this been pushed back?

[Xanthrawl]

Booo! I'll be home and off work for the National Day of Mourning, and DDO will be down for half of it! Poor planning.

I'm not even using Prowess on my current set and I'm still angry about this.

From Release Notes: Threads of Fate are a new endgame raid currency that is used for a variety of things at cap. Threads of Fate appear in the end chests of at-cap raids regardless of tier. They can also be made out of raid runes. Threads of Fate are Bound to Account on Acquire.

From Lammania forum - U41 Preview 2: Threads of Fate + Filigree
Threads are only able to be earned via the end chests of certain raids, instead of both from Raids and from Raid Runes. To compensate, several costs have been significantly lowered.


Pick one and only one of the above

Considering Lamannia previews are exactly that, and do not represent the final update release notes, I would say they picked the former

[Dabima]

Love the update notes, but I'm a little underwhelmed with the bug fixes to be honest. Was hoping some of the barbarian bugs from the last update would be fixed, like barbarian damage reduction being lost until logging out and back in upon death, and Die Hard feat being kinda pointless as your raid is dispelled on making your bleeding save, and you instantly die anyway

[Lynnabel]

Whoops, no, we picked the latter. Sorry! We'll try to get that changed in the notes ASAP. To be clear, Threads are ONLY found in end chests of the 11 qualified raids!

Yes, that was hidden away down the end, wasn't it? Season's Greetings from Krampus, who slipped in an armed rat-trap among all the other presents.

Maybe the idea is this will make us release our bile onto the forums before Christmas itself meaning we are too sluggish to argue with family later on. So we should think of it as a community service that brings us all closer together rather than a rage seizure-inducing nerf.

Thanks.

Are the new winter themed Cosmetic Items exclusive to Gold Daily Dice? Were they added to Aelonwy Maelodic in the Hall of Heroes?

They are in the Hall of Heroes' cosmetic vendor, too, yes

Once again i wonder why you ask the comunity for feedback. There seams to be almost no change from the first iterations of these release notes to the last.

I realize that it is a preview server but asking for feedback and bairly even agnolage feedback then changing virtually nothing really gves the impression of complete disregard for the opions of the players. It is very demeaning.

Please stop asking for players feedback on your updates.

I've brought this up several times but so far have had no comment. On live right now my bard swash (18 bard/2rog) can sing Reign (a self only buff from Fatesinger epic Destiny) and it lats 5 minutes 40 seconds. On the last lamannia preview that had dropped significantly to 3 minutes only. I suggested that Reign which has 3 ranks be 3 mins first rank, 1 additional minute each further rank for a duration of 5 mins total. Its still a nerf from what I can sing on live but not so drastic.

Has any work been done on this issue? Or any thought given to it at all?

Can we see a screenshot of this?

We have plans to adjust this, but not for this immediate update. I definitely agree the durations need some shifting around. I'll see what I can do in the short term for you!

I have Reign twisted in on my main toon (Bard mutt) and love it. Yeah, this sounds like a hit. Sadness. Thanks for taking a look at this though!!!
