*Tweaked AWs again, they now loose 60% of their resists instead of 25% upon tame. Sorry, just trying to balance things. I see too many people tanking stuff and not even needing to bother healing their pet, trying to avoid that as it makes the game too easy and turns out boring.

*Fixed frenzied whirlwind, the timer does not last as long anymore.

* Summons now only go red if the summoner is a murderer.

Also, due to the notority fix, frost beetles are now in game. Frost beetles can be tamed by tamers with around 95% taming. They look like giant beetles and fire beetles except they have a blueish frosty skin. Frost beetles can be transferred to players without taming and used as a mount (Similar to giant beetles and fire beetles). These are a bit different however. Although they do not possess the ability to smelt ore into ingots and don't have backpacks, these beetles are able to radiate cold. Their radiate cold is simlar to the necromancer's "wither" spell except not as powerful. When used as a pet in battle, it will constantly expell its cold aura, damaging anything within range. These are perfect for low level champion spawns provided you take care of them when they fight. While riding them, they will ocassionally defend their masters by freezing a single target that chose to attack their master.

Frost Beetles sound cool. I'll have to go find them tonight when I get home from work.

Not saying the exact place they spawn but they've been known to hang out with ice fiends.

I'm guessing the logical normal place would be the Ice dungeon. Hopefully they won't be too terrible to tame. I can imagine the cold area damage causing the beetle to get angered easily combined with having to subdue it.

But I'll give it a whirl.
