Patch Notes v1.0.2

Belgaraath

My two favorite in the patch:

1) Character limit in the chat window. That should help with the inability to click on the gold spammers to put them on ignore. I've also noticed a huge decrease in the amount of spam over the last 24-48 hours which was making the chat box unreadable. 

2) Grahtwood Unsafe Harbor no longer bugged. It was funny watching dozens of people camp in the same spot in sneak mode thinking that if they stand there eternally, the quest would unbug itself lol. People were screaming at each other not to enter the rooms to kill NPCs and these folks screaming seemed to think that new people entering the building would instantly know not to kill anything so the ritual could begin. It was like watching comedy relief.

-Im disappointed that there is no mention of Banished Cells (BC). Though I already did that dungeon, a lot of folks seemed to say it was currently bugged.

Same thing happened to me with that one quest. I zoned in and scouted around. Seeing some mobs in a room I attack (I mean who wouldn't?) and then I get some idiot swearing and insulting me for minutes. And did the instructions from the idiot fix the bug? Nope. Still never stops the screamers from insulting everyone in game because of a bug NOBODY can fix other than the admins.

I am hoping they squeezed in a fix for BC and just didn't list it in the notes. If not I can't help but wonder when im gonna get to do a dungeon already....

I don't like how they are just deleting bugged quests.

Yea I was disappointed with the frog quest. That worked fine for me and I actually thought it was funny .

If only the phasing had a magical way to phase the immature folks together, then this would be the next step in awesomeness lol.

2) Grahtwood Unsafe Harbor no longer bugged. It was funny watching dozens of people camp in the same spot in sneak mode thinking that if they stand there eternally, the quest would unbug itself lol. People were screaming at each other not to enter the rooms to kill NPCs and these folks screaming seemed to think that new people entering the building would instantly know not to kill anything so the ritual could begin. It was like watching comedy relief.

Well, to be fair, there are puzzling things in the phased questing system that people are still trying to figure out so it's not surprising that they're trying voodoo solutions. Some bosses at the end of solo dungeons do take a while to re-spawn. I'm sure the sneak campers though that was one of those.

 

That quest worked for e on a single relog. I relogged right where the fight is supposed to happen.... and that's my own brand of voodoo I've been telling my guildmates to use lol: log out and in right on top of the quest marker... and be ready for a fight as soon as you do

-Im disappointed that there is no mention of Banished Cells (BC). Though I already did that dungeon, a lot of folks seemed to say it was currently bugged.

BC will be fine for a while again. I'm not sure what breaks it but just a server re-start should do the trick. It was working fine for the first few days. It's only been the last couple where the NPC wouldn't show-up at the first screamer.

For unsafe harbor, I tried "/camp" which forces you to log out 3 times and no luck both by doing that in the building and out of the building. I also tried closing the client still no luck. You were just lucky!!!! lol
