Patch Day today - 15 February 2017

Post by Trilo »

Game Update Notes: February 15, 2017

- The daily bonuses for completing Heroic Adventures offered by Guard Hamarn in Ethernere Tainted West Karana have been significantly improved:
- - Guard Hamarn has been relieved of his duties. These bonus tasks are now offered by Clayton Teek in the Plane of Knowledge. You will be able to find him next to his brother Franklin Teek near the door to the Guild Lobby.
- - Clayton Teek has the ability to directly teleport you to the quest giver of any Heroic Adventure for which you have the daily bonus task to complete.
- - The amount of experience rewarded by the bonus tasks has been increased by an average of 300%. The bonus task now offers approximately the same amount of experience as just completing the Heroic Adventure.
- - The bonus now additionally rewards 50% of the experience needed to complete a Mercenary AA ability point as well as approximately the same amount of matching currency of completing the Heroic Adventure.
- - Heroic Adventures from The Darkened Sea, The Broken Mirror, and Empires of Kunark are now included in the list of possible adventures that bonuses are granted for.
- - The bonuses for the tasks 'Into the Hills', 'Scouting Ahead', and 'Disrupting the Ritual' have been removed from the list of possible adventures that bonuses are granted for.
- - The number of daily bonus tasks offered per day has been reduced from four to two.


- Druid - Increased all DoT lines in power and efficiency. Removed the ability for the same caster to stack multiple spells within these DoT lines (where it was possible).
- The following lines were consolidated:
- - Sunscorch (Vengeance of the Wild to Sunflash)
- - Stinging Swarm (to Horde of Aculeids)
- - Flame Lick (to Consuming Sunray)
- - Nature's Blazing Wrath (to Nature's Fiery Wrath)
- - Gelid Moonbeam (to Argent Moonbeam)
- - Chill of the Natureward (to Chill of the Copsetender)


- Enchanter - Rune spells at and above level 86 now have a recast time of 2.5 seconds.
- Enchanter - Modified "Unity" rune spells (Spectral Unity, Arcane Unity, Phantasmal Unity, and Enticer's Unity) in the following ways:
- - All spells now cast the highest ranks you know of their component runes. For example, If you know Enticer's Rune Rk. III and Polyrefractive Rune Rk. II, those are the two ranks you get when using any rank of Enticer's Unity.
- - All Unity rune spells now have a base recast time of 30/29/28 seconds and share timer 15. Type 3 augments will still reduce this recast time.
- - All spells had the additional hate modifier removed.
- - All spells now have their own mana cost in addition to the base mana costs of the triggered spells.


- Level 100+ mercenaries have had their base stats improved:
- - Increased the total HP and evasion of tank mercenaries
- - Increased the evasion of healer mercenaries
- - Increased the evasion, offense, and HP of melee damage mercenaries
- - Increased the evasion of spell damage mercenaries
- Additional ranks of Mercenary Alternate Advancement abilities have been added for levels 101-105. Additionally, the following Mercenary Alternate Advancement abilities have been improved:
- - Increased the effectiveness of Furious Wrath from 1% to 2% per rank
- - Increased the effectiveness of Subtle Magic from 2% to 3% per rank


- When there is a world experience modifier in effect, experience messages will now reflect a bonus.
