Delta 222[edit]

  • Added a quest "Blackhammer: The Lost Lair" to Beltar Blackhammer. The quest creates a "link" between the Blackhammer Farmstead and Allathos the Spirit for Level 100 Ancient Dragons who wish to pursue the Drulkar's Wrath quest series.
  • Cleaned up quest "Monk: Initiate's First Test" and made sure it properly refers to Loricatus Beetles.
  • Cleaned up the dialog in quest "Outfitter: A Shoulder To Cry On" to be more clear about receipt of the coin payment and speaking with Johald about the formula.
  • Due to unintended power-leveling during the previous Fall Festival, Scary Spiders and Zombies will only return as tier 1 mobs and will provide no experience when killed.
  • (Blight Only): Dragons will no longer be able to join the "Neo-" schools.
  • Adjusted the rate and quantity of Cedar Trees in Vagrant's Rest, Slate Crest, Heart, Dalimond, Spirit Isle, and Genevia
  • Rulan in Mahagra is no longer labeled as a Consigner.
  • Arek Wikhalad, Dwarven Knight of Creation, and part of the Shining Blades quest, is now a level 98 - 100 ghost and drops proper treasure.
  • Gift of Armor 5 scroll will now properly give Gift of Armor 5 buff.
  • Quest "Outfitter: Excess Shoulders" will no longer require an extra greet to Johald.
  • Lair Mural "Gone Fishin'" no longer uses a test model. Existing structures should update automatically to use the proper model.
  • Quest "Earn Title: Avenger of the Iron Guards" now has the proper constraint on them so that players will be lvl 100 for the quest to count.
  • Tree, Large Leafy for plots is now scaled properly instead of stretched tall and thin.
  • Quest "Vault of Istaria: Investigation" no longer erroneously mentions a free vault upgrade as this is not offered any longer.
  • Quest "Krianos: Welcome to Kion" now correctly points players to Sharista in Kion. Fixed a point in the dialog with Commander Devins to point players back to the correct person in order to finish the quest as well.
  • Quest Kerian's Quest: Learn How To Technique A Claw! can once again be completed by killing the Small Loricatus Beetles on New Trismus.
  • Raised the minimum number of Cedar Trees that can spawn outside of Kion and within the Cedar Forest.
  • Updated quest "Beachfront Beat Down" to point at the proper location.
  • Forest Crawler Worker Leg Hair is now flagged as obsolete as it is no longer used in Techniques. It can be traded with Nadia for newer technique components.
  • Technique "Adventure: 1-Handed Crush I" now requires Enraged Dim Wisp Vitality instead of Forest Crawler Worker Leg Hair.
  • Technique "Spell: Blight Damage I" now requires Biting Fly Wing instead of Forest Crawler Worker Leg Hair.
  • Technique "Spell: Romp I" now requires Forest Crawler Soldier Gland instead of Forest Crawler Worker Leg Hair.
  • Technique "Craft: Spinning I" now requires Forest Crawler Breeder Abdomen instead of Forest Crawler Worker Leg Hair.
  • Quest "Spiked Scales V: An Easy Challenge" now properly refers to Rykhar as being in Dralk instead of Chiconis.
  • Quest "Primal Instant Heal II: Beetles Mania Continues" now refers you to the south of Sable Shores instead of north for Greater Ulmus Beetles.
  • Quest "Dragon Healing Adept: The Rottenest Treant of Them All" now properly refers you to the forest EAST of Parsinia, not WEST into a mythical forest beneath the waves.
  • Updated ocean edge near Baker so that it doesn't flood lair.
  • Updated the dialog for Rialtos the Wary and Calimir the Bold so that they no longer speaks of "next adventures" when neither has any to offer.
  • Updated all resource "trees" so they use a new ent file so they are non-collide
  • Quest "Spiked Scales I: Gain The Knowledge Of Spiked Scales" now refers to the Agh'kuk in its description.
  • Knut Granite Skull and Halfdan Sundershield can be found once again in Aughundell so that quests involving them can be completed.
  • Karane the Historian now has dialog for hatchlings explaining when they will be offered the RoP quest and will once again properly give out the quest to those who qualify.
