===================================
Dark Age of Camelot
Test Version 1.70w Release Notes
June 2, 2004
===================================
TEST SERVER CHANGES
- Pendragon players who pay rent using the /bountyrent command will now receive a large discount. One bounty point is now worth 20 gold pieces and will pay for one full week's rent for a cottage. Note that the /bountyrent command must be used to take advantage of this discount. Bounty rent tokens will *not* get a discount.
- We have set the /level command to 19 to facilitate testing in Killaloe, the level 15-19 Battleground.
NEW FRONTIERS
- Fixed a bug that made it possible for players to attack someone on the other side of a wall/gate.
Temporary Keep and Tower Cost Reductions
- Underpopulated realms will receive a reduction of cost bonus for all hookpoint purchases, maintenance costs, and claiming costs of keeps in New Frontiers. Currently, Pendragon players of all three realms will now receive a 75% reduction to these settings for testing purposes. The costs currently on Pendragon are as follows:
Hookpoint Purchases - 10 gold/3 bounty points/3 guild bounty points
Keep Claiming Costs - 125 guild bounty points
Tower Claiming Costs - 13 guild bounty points
Keep Maintenance Costs per hour (based on current level) - 13, 13, 13, 13, 25, 50, 75, 100, 125, 250 guild bounty points
Tower Maintenance Costs per hour (based on current level) - 1, 1, 1, 1, 3, 5, 8, 10, 13, 25 guild bounty points
- Once version 1.70 has gone to live servers, underpopulated realms will receive a 50% reduction of cost bonus. Right now, we are considering these numbers as possible settings for underpopulated realms. These numbers should in no way be considered final at this time.
Hookpoint Purchases - 10 gold/5 bounty points/5 guild bounty points
Keep Claiming Costs - 250 guild bounty points
Tower Claiming Costs - 25 guild bounty points
Keep Maintenance Costs (based on current level) - 25, 25, 25, 25, 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 500 guild bounty points
Tower Maintenance Costs per hour (based on current level) - 3, 3, 3, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 50 guild bounty points

Realm Ability Changes and Fixes
- Perfect Recovery will now properly remove up to all five types of death sickness (as players can have two versions of each of the new RvR death sicknesses and the PvE Resurrection Illness on the character at once).
- Necromancers will no longer be able to purchase the Whirling Dervish realm ability. Necromancers with this ability will have the ability removed in a future patch. This realm ability was removed for the Necromancer class because it did not work with the Necromancer's pet.
Siege Changes and Fixes
- Eliminated several cases where players were receiving false "You release your siege equipment" type messages.
- The field trebuchet and field ballista can now be moved.
Controllable Boat Changes and Fixes
- After the boat owner leaves the captain's seat (and no other passenger currently on the boat moves into the seat), the next passenger boarding the boat will automatically enter the captain's seat.
CLASSIC CAMELOT WORLD NOTES
Item Notes
- The Tomte Bow (Midgard) now increases quickness instead of intelligence.
SHROUDED ISLES WORLD NOTES
Item Notes
- In some instances, Hibernia cloth dye merchants sold the same hooded cloak for two different prices. This has been corrected so that all hooded cloaks should be the same price.
TRIALS OF ATLANTIS WORLD NOTES
Stygia Encounters
- The cerabo iaculus should no longer attempt to cast on a necromancer in shadeform.
