Hot Fix Notes

Posted by John Thornhill | 2015 Jul 16 12:51 -0400 GMT
The following changes are now up on Ywain and Gaheris!

Otherworlds Prologue

  • The following quests have been changed to no longer require players to visit their realm's capital city and then venture back down to Lyonesse, Vanern Swamp, or Bug of Cullen in order to spawn King Uther, Ymir, or Queen Cliodna:
    • Begone, Apparitions
    • Begone, Giants
    • Begone, Fae
    • Players will now be sent directly to defeat Uther, Ymir, or Cliodna.
      • After defeating them, players will still be asked to venture to their capital city and then obtain a spiritual conduit in order to access the Otherworlds zones.
    • Players currently on the "Begone," quests that have not yet visited their realm's city can abandon them and speak with the following NPCs again to get the new expedited versions:
      • Lieutenant Haley in Lyonesse
      • Arin Snowtouch in Vanern Swamp
      • Nara Manasong in Bog of Cullen
    • Players will no longer be asked to approach the portal in order to spawn King Uther, Ymir, or Queen Cliodna and instead asked to simply defeat the appropriate boss.
      • King Uther, Ymir and Queen Cliodna will now spawn much more regularly to compensate for this change.


Otherworlds Chapter 1

  • Master Burray, Master Hamis and Master Zedde will now pause for 30 seconds after completing the portal ritual. During this pause, players will be able to turn in and pick up new quests from them but will not be able to start the encounter again until after the new rest period is over.
  • Players will be removed from stealth when gathering Otherworldly Essence.
    • Additionally the mobs in the Otherworlds zones are now more likely to see stealthed characters.
  • The quest [Siabra] Energetic Collections will now correctly require [Siabra] Picking a fight before it can be obtained.

Character and Guild Search Update

Posted by John Thornhill | 2015 Jul 14 11:23 -0400 GMT


The Character and Guild Search feature should once again be updating your characters' and guilds' statistics! Please note that it may take several hours for the process to work its way through all characters and guilds so please check back later if you do not see your updated stats immediately.

Additionally, we have some new notes for the search feature:
  • Search results will now include archived characters and servers.
    • A small icon will appear next to the name to denote an archived character.
  • The cluster drop down now displays the servers contained in each cluster to help returning users find their characters.
  • A link has been added to the bottom of the results to direct players to the Returning Players Guide.

Character and Guild Search Stats Downtime

Posted by John Thornhill | 2015 May 28 18:30 -0400 GMT
The character and guild search stats (found HERE) are unable to update currently. The search function still works but no RvR, experience, or tradeskill stats will update until we implement a fix. We have that fix ready but it requires live server downtime to implement it. As such, we are planning to implement this fix when 1.118 goes live in a few short weeks to avoid taking the live servers down more than necessary.
