Favor

The favor reward for achieving the proper amount of House Morgrave favor is now available and grants +2 to Search and Spellcraft.


what about a reward for 7000 favor? in this day of TR'ing this is an accomplishment.

[droid327]

House Morgrave?

What's their dragonmark? lol

[Nugaot]

Tier 4 of Angel of Vengeance now calls out that it applies to alignment spells.

Was this not applying properly before or was this just a text error in the description?

What about this bug? Anyone else getting this? It started after I TR'd after this last update. Once my toon takes damage for the first time after logging in, his body suddenly begins acting like he's continuously taking damage and also begins cycling through several different grunting sounds like he's getting hit. It doesn't stop, even in public areas, until I log out/in. Of course, the next time I get hit, it starts all over again. My dude is starting to embarrass me in public. Gyrating about with a tail that looks like a "stiff zipper" and making sounds like he's in heat. Very, very, annoying.

The Mark of Schooling
Least: drains 1,000pp from your character after every quest, +2 Bluff, click to cast a version of Fox's Cunning that has a rage-like exhaustion at the end.
Lesser: drains 5,00pp after every quest, click to cast a version of Greater Fox's Cunning that also has a rage-like exhaustion at the end.
Greater: gains 1/2 of the currency lost by other Mark of Schooling bearers in your party at the end of each quest, click to enthrall nearby characters with Lesser and Least Marks of Schooling, incapacitating them for 55 minutes (with a wills save vs. sleep).

I see that the release notes say “The pause after swapping equipment has been reduced,” but it doesn’t say by how much. Has it been reduced to what it was before U49, or is this just another half-baked “hack” that doesn’t actually fix the problem?

Only asking because you guys tend to give specifics when you think you’ve actually fixed things, and are extremely vague when you haven’t. It’s kinda disconcerting knowing that the patch notes for this are pretty vague.

The pause after swapping equipment has been reduced.

Thank you!

No change to PTWF to compensate for loss of offhand DS, as was done for Scourge?

Good to see weapon swapping getting addressed.

Any effect expected on mis-firing of hot-bar buttons?

[Cordovan]

House Morgrave?

What's their dragonmark? lol

Sorry about that fixed.

I hear that’s a new bug specific to tiefling rangers with bows equipped.

Unquantifiable avoids scrutiny and challenge. This is perfectly in line with current expectations.

The Hardcore vendor now allows access to previous rewards earned during prior seasons on the Hardcore server itself.

Can you elaborate on that? Does it mean that at 1750 favor I can get Eyes of Darkness (season 1 reward) instead of Overlord Collar? Or can I get both?

An attempt to avoid scrutiny and challenge may be the goal here, but they’re going to get a metric deuce-ton of both simply because of how they went live with a bunch of half-baked, or outright broken garbage code in U49 that necessitated this patch to begin with.

Also, why is this being called U49.1 when they essentially had to release an update less than 24 hours after U49 exploded in their laps? Shouldn’t this U49.2?

Hmm dont see a fix for falc bird shots stopping repeating xbow from autoing til the bird fully returns. soon?

[Jerevth]

House Morgrave?

Fie. Thought I had a clever, quick and witty response but I like Zigiltarg's better. +1

As for the stiff tailed, grunting teifling... anybody else hear "Mack the Knife" playing in the mental soundtrack?

It means you can get the rewards from the previous hardcore seasons if you earned them then. You can not earn the rewards from previous hardcore seasons on the current season.

And I was hoping to get bloody footprints
