Woo hoo!

-Work has been done to eliminate various sources of server performance issues.

And yes please!

Tiefling/Scoundrel players are now properly immune to fear.

That's great and all (my social anxiety is finally getting patched! Woo!), but wouldn't making Tiefling and Scoundrel characters immune to fear be of more use in game?

Post of the year. Congrats.

I am very excited about this release. The 2 weeks of extra polish, attentive details and responsive to loot feedback will make this a really fun release.

Might want to read under CLASSES section, although it should be races.

You mean the section that I quoted?

What...would the possibility be of getting a version of the patch notes for a big patch like this (one where it went through iterations on Lama) that shows the changes since the final preview? Just like how you do between previews on Lama.

I know, for those of us that are tuned in during the preview/testing process, it might be hard to pick out all the details where the last round of changes were applied...and I wouldnt want to be expecting one thing that I played on Lama and then find out the hard way that it had been tweaked before the final patch.

I'm guessing pretty low, but worth asking

"A new item has been added to the DDO Store called Call of Destiny Elixirs. These potions allow a character to earn experience in one Epic Destiny while another is active for up to three hours per potion."

Been wanting this for ages and I got my wish! But ugh! Gotta buy it in the store for only 3 hours at a time? I hope it's pretty painless on the wallet.

"The Concentration Skill's DC check now only uses 1/10th of the incoming damage to increase its DC."

I think I understand this, but want to be sure. A successful concentration check occurs when:

d20 + concentration skill - 10 - spell level >= incoming damage

And now it is changing to:

d20 + concentration skill - 10 - spell level >= (incoming damage / 10)

Is that right?

It should be obvious, but it'd be nice if you were explicitly clear on this. For the Call of Destiny Elixir, if the destiny you are earning xp for is in a different sphere than your active destiny, which sphere's karma total increases from the earned xp?

woot for reading fails! I do them all time due to partial dyslexia

Does that mean you're earning in one instead of.the other? Or does it mean you're earning in both simultaneously?

Generally won't matter once you've filled in all of your destinies, but could make a difference before that and also if someone ran in a "wrong" destiny in the past

[TitusOvid]

Good luck to the team!

whoa! quicken is no longer mandatory always on feat

Will it drop in game? Be purchasable with mats of some kind? Daily dice winning? I wonder

The Sphere that includes the Epic Destiny where the XP is being applied will receive the Karma XP.
