Update [Feb 03 08] - Haven, Roulette and other misc stuff

Post by Red Squirrel »

* Fixed a bug in arcane circle allowing to get higher levels using mirror image

* Mobs that have ninjitsu skill can now cast mirror image

* Sith related mobiles have now been removed from Haven and the town (non destroyed part) is now considered a regular guarded town. The rest remains haunted with undead. The sith event ties more into this. (event now over)

* Roulette lesser prize list has been updated. You can now get pet bonding deeds, masterpiece resources (Common and Uncommon), boards and even special "roulette only" colored parrots.

* Dungeon Chest loot has been updated. Treasure chests will now have a chance to drop more items and intensities have been improved slightly for the higher levels. Reagents will not drop as often and the higher chests have a chance of dropping more "uncommon" masterpiece resources as well as weapons in the 70 - 115 point range.

idk what the pot bug was, but whatever fix u did to it messed this up:

if u dbl click an explo pot and mess uo ur target, u cant try to dbl click the pot again and throw it, if u mess up the first time it explodes in ur pack no matter what. Explo pots keep getting nerfed more and more on here.

The bug was that you could actually "throw" a pot twice. First time you cancel the target, so you double click another, then you can "re throw" the first one, and the 2nd.

This made it possible to say, activate 50 pots, then all throw them at the exact same time.

Though this negatively effected other pots, theres a fix that will be going in next update.

Just as long as you target something when you throw the pot, you're safe, but if you cancel the target then it wont let you rethrow.

that wont work though red, because u have to wait .5 seconds everytime u dbl click an object, therefor to dbl click to activate + dbl click to re-throw, you can do 50 at once, in theory onlt 3, and thats if target is see-able, if ur target is faraway, ur dead from yourself.

Now its like if u mess up ur first target of an explo pot, ur done, no hope. Just another nerf to explo pots.

on here they do less damage than demise, even though on here people have more resists and more life, and they are extremely hard to target with now, and anyone using them can to expect to blow themselves up more than actually hitting their target.

Theres a few issues that will be resolved next SW. They slipped through. This was done in like 5 minutes. 8:00 comes WAY too fast.

Ya I'm going to have to agree about the cancel target thing. Sometimes you may need to do that and it will end up exploding on you which is not an option in pvp. That mixed with resists as mentioned, makes them less effective in pvp. Not to mention the fact that you need to keep up with your target and have really good aiming to be able to actually hit.

Like Red mentioned earlier, the bugs will be fixed up next SW.

All pots in general seem to be majorly messed up. Damien and I were testing heal/cure/refresh pots and 99% of the time it dosen't register to use them.

There was not a lot of people online so I did a reboot. The fix is now removed.

If I see it being abused in the future I'll have to fix it though, but it was not an issue yet. I just like fixing stuff before it does become an issue.

What are you going on about now? It was fixed and reverted because it caused issues with other potions. I even checked myself and the pots were fucked up. The fix is put on hold until a better solution can be found without screwing up the whole pot system.

I belive he thinks I was using the afformentioned exploit, of which I didn't know existed.

Note that red squirrel stated no one has used this exploit. He said the fix would implemented if he found anyone was caught using it.
