    • Skills that were previously unable to gain XP through use have been re-added and will gain XP at a 75% reduced rate
    So I can level my witches brew without scrolls? And buff others/buffs?

    Any fix to mount knock up being removed, kills not displaying properly and loading screen bug after teleporting?

    @kilrain @MWTaylor

    ??

    Im using android and requesting desktop version of site still do not see it. What am I doing wrong.


    Oh I see it now... Wish you'd just post the pic there at the end.

    • Stat boosting skills (Ingenious, Muscular, Clever, Nimble, Fleet and Sturdy) have all been removed. Players can now naturally achieve a max of 100 in all stats
    What does this mean?

    The sneakpeak looks interesting. Is it "only" UI stuff like leaderboards and updated map or does it come with some content, like what was hinted at in another post. Updated VCP's I think it was.

    Does remote crafting mean you can craft anywhere now?

    PvP heat map? Please tell me that's not what we're going to actually see in game. Tie it into the lore somehow. Have us pay NPC's gold to find nearby enemies, or tie it to quests. If you're again going to ignore the lore and immersion of the game you might as well turn the game into an arena like Pub G or some shit.

    Show some creativity and passion BPG. No more lazy, band aid fixes.

    And I guess the scrolls and essences we've piled up all this time are worthless now?

    Yes, for none mastery crafting. Mastery crafting requires a workbench still.
    --- Post updated ---
    Players will no longer be able to get to a base level of 110 stats. The natural cap will be 100.
    --- Post updated ---
    You can but the rate is actually 90% as effective as previous normal cast leveling. Scrolling will still be the most effective way to level those spells up.
    --- Post updated ---
    I don't believe any of those bug fixes are in this specific patch.

    Sitting at your pc clanless in a capital or starter city is pretty much risk free.. what do you mean?

    I kind of thought we were going to get away from that as well. I remember the first year on na we would gear up to the teeth when we were crafting.

    Bad for the game if noobs can get jumped in their capital at crafting tables.

    It's for the website not in-game it won't be real time and it will tie in to our kill-boards.

    make sure this stuff count ganks not kills for obvious reasons.

    also, how prevent kill-boards to be destroyed by duels? dont counting repetitive kills?

    This should probably be cleared stated in the OP. As of now, it looks like an incredibly amateur game feature.

    Will it do anything or will it just tell us where someone was ganked semi-recently?

    Probably should have it in game. Now we may have two maps to alt tab to...

    It's not supposed to be used for finding fights, it's just a fun feature to add to the website similar to what Albion do with the Kill Boards and we had most of the data available to use already.

    Oh. Guess I was kind of hoping for hot spots and something in game to tie into it.

    ? this isn't going to stop noobs from getting jumped in Capital Cities if they are Clan tagged. It just removes the danger of trekking to a crafting table.

    /Wes the whole idea of a patch note discussion/forums is just that- a discussion of the good and bad.
