How great was this last patch?

The otherworld Upgraded meteoric quests didn't make it into game, neither did the lux vendor in OW, but that said the group bonuses to both EXP and GOLD drops is a big help in grouping as well as the better Stonevale loot tables for skill pages and decreased aggro ranges..also the difficulty ratio of mob toughness vs Exp was also tweaked, the eyes seem easier to kill but those that give more Exp still retain their toughness...was a needed change. And I dig the new look of the Otherworld, a little but trippy, but I like it.

Not saying at all that the game is fixed entirely but many of the issues that made people really disheartened about the gameplay have been alleviated. I think personally that this was a solid step in the right direction. And I look forward to other steps to follow.

Post your thoughts to the newest patch.

Hey, how long did it take your device to finish patching? Mine usually patches in a matter of a minute but has taken 6... Big patch or no?

Just finished

Would have been better if admin returned my lost items... Youd think 2weeks is a long enough time.. But other than that, this was a good patch

its ok, but its progress compared to the last two weeks i guess. i really like the pg drops now in sv. i have both my chars new skills ow took me bout 3 hours for both. and alot of clan members do as well. im also glad to see redbanes no longer MIA, but over all gj otm, good patch.

oh and p.s. we caught a glimpse of the meor 2 admin was wearing when he grouped with us and destroyed blackstone today, not sure if it was finished but it looked pretty cool

I really expected Taunt to be fixed. If the tank dies he cannot get aggro back until most others get killed and have to use rez idols and such. Great for profits I guess.

Patch is great :D ! although I'm not sure if I like that the otherworld is brighter and did anyone notice the giant crystals are blue now... I also like that the quests are more self explainitory much easier. Thank god eye arggo zones are smaller too! I say keep up the work OTM! :D

The patch is great:
Haven't check taunt yet but hope it was fix.
Now ow new look is neat but I think if you tone down the brightness a little to make it look evil and not like fairyland then it would make it better

Excellent that finally the Cerridwan stones quest was redesigned and we have new mobs now dropping them. I was really tired of verbal abuse I was getting from lower levels when I refused to group them for shalemont bosses and they could not finish their defector quest.

Unfortunately, there seem to be now bugs with three statues for ability quests. The greygorge and red cavern ones dont take your stones. Fortunately, they let you finish your quest. That means that several alts or players can finish those quests with the same stones. But the downside is - Highshore statue does not work. It does not give you the quest.

And yes. The taunt issue makes tanks almost useless atm.

Good to see redbane again.
