===================================
Dark Age of Camelot
Version 1.68A Release Notes
February 24, 2004
===================================
NEW THINGS AND BUG FIXES
- This client patch includes performance enhancements for both the Shrouded Isles and Trials of Atlantis clients that have been in testing on Pendragon recently. These optimizations are designed to increase framerate when around large numbers of figures (in RVR battles, PVE raids, and in populated towns), as well as improve performance when first encountering and loading up new figures.
- To assist satellite users who have been having problems with the login client, we have made some connection adjustments that should help alleviate many or all of the issues.
- Necromancers can now once again use power drain spells on targets with 0 power. These spells will damage the target and give the caster power as in version 1.67.
- We have fixed a bug that was preventing players from creating trophies with remains that required the extraordinary behemoth potion. (Golestandt, Xanxicar, Cuuldurach, Balor, Gjalpinulva, and Nosdoden)
- Multiple friendly ward/storm spells in the same area will no longer spam the casters with error messages.
- The Powerstrike spell found on Unique Items now has the correct damage value.
Quest Journalist Changes
- Connla's Well (Hibernia) will no longer be removed from completed quest lists by the Quest Journalist.
- Fortune of the Few (Albion) will no longer be capped at level 21.
- Spinner's Cloak (Hibernia) will no longer be capped at level 20, because it is a prerequisite for other quests. Also, the Quest Journalist will not remove this quest from completed quest lists anymore.
Artifacts/Researchers
- Egg of Youth (Hibernia) - We have fixed a bug that was preventing Bards from activating the Egg of Youth.
- Bruiser (Midgard) - We have fixed a bug that was preventing Shamans and Healers from activating Bruiser.
- The Foppish Sleeves artifact level 5 ability "Chink in the Armor" should now give its target a more appropriate debuff icon.
- The Wing's Dive and Foppish Sleeve artifacts should now correctly proc their level ten spell in PvP combat.
- The Shield of Khaos, the Eerie Darkness Stone and the Crocodile Tear Ring now show the correct experience requirement information. Additionally, the Crocodile Tear Ring will now correctly earn experience in the frontier dungeons.
- We have replaced the Unending Vengeance proc on Maddening Scalars with a damage shield. The Unending Vengeance spell was, under certain cases, causing players to not receive credit for completing encounters. We will be adjusting the spell in a future patch to give the gloves a more appropriate ability.
- We have replaced the Silver Aura charge on the Snakecharmer's Whip, Snakecharmer's Greave, Snakecharmer's Scythe with a damage shield. The Silver Aura spell was, under certain cases, causing players to not receive credit for completing encounters. We will be adjusting the spell in a future patch to give the weapons a more appropriate ability.
TRIALS OF ATLANTIS WORLD NOTES
Oceanus Encounters
- We have fixed an issue with the Guardian of Atlantis despawning incorrectly while the Tablet of Atlantis encounter was taking place.
Item Notes
- The Legs of the Mutilator has had its second bonus to Dexterity changed to Quickness.
