nilbog: Crystalline Silk Threads are no longer stackable.
nilbog: Crystal Chitin Leggings may no longer be used by rogues.
nilbog: Kylong Chestplate may no longer be used by Rangers, Dwarves, Halflings, Gnomes, Rogues, or Shamans.

[nilbog]

Yep they sure are. This server will go through Velious.

As you do not have any interaction with these items or npcs currently, it should serve as notes of how things will be circa original Kunark or Velious, respectively.

Example. Kly overseer.. should proc stonespiderstun. I do want to research this again, or make 2 different sets of changelog notes.

The crystal chitin, silk, and chestplate.... were "unnerfed" in 2002.

I assume that I should list these changes now, so I don't have to respond and validate myself in the future.

[Yinaltin]

i get it ,its like a "dont forget it " post-it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
im just interested : are more such changes hidden in older patchnotes ?

[nilbog]

Yeah.. work that has been done on Kunark and Velious, and from the beta forums.

edit: Maybe I don't understand the question. You might find expansion fixes from our patch notes, but not many. I wouldn't go looking for them anyways

[mmoguy]

good update guys, nothing but the best for p1999....

loving the server, thanks Devs!!

[maximum]

...I thought the WK zone glitch was a developer "easter egg" of Classic?
