Food/Drink item durations return. Praise Fuzzlecutter's Everlasting Drink.
Venril Sathir spawn increased from every 7 days to every 3 days. VSR should spawn every day when VS isn't up.
Warrior Epics can be combined using Swords of Rune. IE you can make both 2h and 1hs without having to repeat blade/hilt portion of quest now.
Enchant Racial Metals (Brellium, Adamantium, Mithril, etc.) no longer require rare gems as reagents. Rejoice cheap cultural armor again!
All Magician pet summons use Malachites now. No more Lapiz Lazulis in the 20s.
Canni 2/3 Increased efficiency
Canni 4 added to more drop tables (WW Dragons namely)
Monk weight allowance changed (unsure if it works like this already on P99):



Level 15, Limit 15
Level 30, Limit 16
Level 45, Limit 17
Level 51, Limit 18
Level 55, Limit 20
Level 60, Limit 24

Did anyone do the warrior epic on live when this got added? Is it possible to actually skip everything and only do the Red Scabbard part? (I already had my epic done on live when this was added)

[Daldaen]

We've made a change to the Red Scabbard that should relieve most of the problems warriors were having with their epic weapon occasionally disappearing during conversion between the two-handed weapon and the two one-handed weapons. What will happen now is rather simple. The very next time you use the container to combine the weapons (or break them apart), the old scabbard will disappear and a new one will replace it.
THE NEW SCABBARD AND THE SWORDS WILL APPEAR ON YOUR CURSOR, rather than in your inventory. So once you have combined them, make sure to place them in your inventory. And don't panic, the items didn't disappear. smile But also MAKE CERTAIN THAT YOU HAVE ROOM IN YOUR INVENTORY FOR ALL THREE ITEMS (the two swords and the scabbard, which is a container and needs to be able to fit into your main inventory). If you end up with a No-Drop container on your cursor with no place to put it in your inventory, you will have a problem...

Also, right now the new scabbard is a little bugged. Right now you won't be able to open the new scabbard until you camp out once after it is created. We're working on fixing that bug. We decided to make this change even with this small bug to help relieve everyone of the problems with the old scabbard.

This new scabbard will have a special ability. It will be able to recreate the epic weapons if you have lost them. Simply place a Sword of Runes (summoned by a Magician) into the scabbard and hit the combine button. The scabbard will convert the temporary power of the Sword of Runes into the permanent epic sword.

Customer Service WILL NOT be replacing the old scabbards with the new ones. That will be done by the game itself once you have completed the quest and combined the swords for the first time.

Based on this description, you had to have the epics done already to get the new scabbard, however I suppose doing the Red Scabbard portion of the quest alone, it is possible that you could've just skipped the blade/hilt part... Interesting!

I may have to investigate on live and see how it functions now.

We're still missing some stuff from February and March too, namely hybrid skill adjustment not functioning and Siren's Grotto revamp.

[Erati]

imo the hybrid stuff is biggest travesty - pls get those skill up / AC working

slap in the face to all knight mains - Im looking at you Aviann !

[khanable]

my body is ready for custom helms

[Triangle]

Anyone have the numbers for the canni efficiency upgrade?

[Daldaen]

Cannibalize II
33 -> 36

Cannibalize III
38 -> 41

[maestrom]

Venril Sathir spawn increased from every 7 days to every 3 days. VSR should spawn every day when VS isn't up.




Yes, please.

[Vallanor]

Yes, please.

[Dwadar2005]

Hopefully they add that magi loottable fix too in hate.

[fiveeauxfour]

monk weight allowance is already in game

[Sallan]

To devs - just wondering if this patch is close to complete for release

[colicab]

+1 Certain Knights wanting to MT dragons and ramp tank vindi for more than 25%.

[mev]

@fiveeauxfour -- why do you say that the monk weight tables are already in the game? The AC numbers in the client aren't necessarily accurate. The classic timeline has this coming in April 2001, and as far as I know, the last monk weight update was August 13, 2011, which gave monks weight allowance at 55 and 60 (https://www.project1999.com/forums/showthread.php?t=45360).

[Monty405]

Velious racial plate helm quests have been added that will allow you to 'trade in' your existing helms for ones with textures. We have decided to allow the players (or their characters) to chose whether they wish to have the new helmet textures or to continue to use helmets that show no graphics.

What npc did this?

[Sallan]

Each velious city had an npc to quest them. The thurg one for eg is in the side room by dains throne (npc isn't there yet pending patch)

[FraggleRock]

We have any eta? Excited for custom helma

[Erati]

hybrids still dont have the pleasure of enjoying the fruits of the march patch /facepalm

[Man0warr]

SG still isn't nerfed.

[Raev]

Daldaen, when did the aggro revamps happen? I remember doing some research on warrior threat and relatively early in Velious there was a big revamp where spell threat was massively reduced. Like stuns should be the highest hate at +400 or so, and right now I think mallet charges are +750 or something.

[Culkasi]

Bump for April patch goodness! We need this patch please :(

Bump - Pray for Knight fixes and 3 day VS!
I've been so very excited about VS.

[Culkasi]

I've been so very excited about VS.

It would appear the 3-day VS didn't get in this time. Not mentioned in patch notes, and no daily VSR today

[Twelveltr]

Its in the original April patch notes unless I'm missing something.

[Culkasi]

Its in the original April patch notes unless I'm missing something.

Correct, but not in the ones Rogean posted (unless I am missing something :P )

[Twelveltr]

I guess a lot of things were added/patched but not listed. I picked up the new TL spells and they weren't listed. I was hoping the VS change wasn't but like you said no VSR pop.

[Man0warr]

It seems like it's all the March/April bug fixes but none of the content. Hopefully we get it down the road.

Chardok and Sirens Grotto revamp should be soon too.

[Erati]

did they confirm that Sirens would be nerfed at all?

or does that zone actually get a real 'revamp'?

[Man0warr]

It's more of a nerf than a revamp. It happened really early in Velious too so not sure why they haven't done it yet.

[Culkasi]

Was Nortlaev added? Anyone able to confirm?

[Erati]

it was in the notes - no confirmation of his actual existance

isnt he always up - should be table to track it pretty easy

[Sallan]

Had a look with my hole spotter last night and he's no where to be found (I assume he spawns within yael's room). Could just mean he was killed though

[Culkasi]

if he is always up that would mean infinite Red dragon scales? I am sure he has a respawn timer, but not been able to find any information on the internet of thing - 3-5-7 days?

Anyway, just saw noone claiming to bag him on Sunday, and as the other era changes (VS) didn't go in, I was wondering if Nortlaev did

I meant as in no PHs.....i didnt think he had a PH

[Twelveltr]

Was there anything saying why VS didn't go in?

[evilkorn]

Super Friends killed him after the repop.
