Whew reading through old patch notes is quite an adventure! There's so many subtle and temporary bugs that would be kinda fun to experience (Runed Fighter's Staff usable by Warriors for a while, or a few days where Bard's could charm Dragons / Deities, buffed newbie city guards getting see-invis accidentally, cast-time nerfs to Staff of Temp Flux to prevent players from spamming it for LD griefing).

If you ever really wanted to ramp-up the difficulty curve for Kunark (which might be interesting to do given how knowledgeable and skilled everyone is now), this was active the first ~3 months of the expansion:

Keyed Dungeons

The key for Charasis (Howling Stones) is now NODROP per the patch message from a couple of weeks ago. Furthermore, when your character dies, keys for Charasis, Sebilis, and Veeshan's Peak, will no longer remain with your corpse, but will instead return with your character to its bind point. We made this change to reduce the difficulty and corpse-loss potential of these zones, and eliminate the need to do the key quests multiple times.
