Posted 15 April 2011 by [Comments Off]

Brand new maps for miners and foragers looking for ingredients for their crafting trades are up in the guides section. I finished both for Scarlet Gorge last night and and added lots to the Freemarch foraging map too.

More to come so keep checking back.

Hotfix #17 15/04/11

Posted 15 April 2011 by [Comments Off]

It’s a 63mber today and consists mostly of bug fixes and keeping the machine well-oiled and running smoothly.

World Event

* Exorcising Evil: The Corrupted Essence can be exorcised again after 30 seconds, in case NPCs steal your mob.
* More tweaks to the Phase 2 events for stability under load!

General

* Added Malformed Soul and Corrupted Soul drops to end-game Rift content.
* Fixed a bug where you wouldn’t loot stacking items when hitting Take All with a full inventory.

Combat

* Fixed ability tooltips not displaying the correct damage when it was increased by other abilities, and instead showing lowered damage overall.
* Feign Death should be much more convincing.
* Back-end optimizations of player pet aggro – this should have no visible effect in-game.
* Back-end optimizations of aggro lists and target switching for NPCs in instances and the main world – this should also be invisible in gameplay.

Zones

Greenscale’s Blight [Raid]

* Lord Greenscale: Added some extra failsafes to prevent the plants and minions from sticking around past an encounter reset.

Scarwood Reach

* Fixed the Life Rift in Lotham’s Strike either not loading correctly or closing too soon.

Silverwood

* Rift: Gedlo Supply Drop: Addressed issues with mobs getting stuck in stacks of crates.

Items

* The following items had Death Resistance incorrectly set on their stats; this has been removed.

* Magical Tendril, Breath of the Wild, Staff of the Creeper, Spiritguider, Frozen Scepter, Ceremonial Shoulderpads, Ceremonial Visage, Ceremonial Robe, Band of Spells, Sagebrush Spellstaff, Carmintium Spellcutter, Carminite Longsword, Ill-Fated Relic, Voodoo Charm, and Pugilist’s Signet.

River of Souls Phase 1 Poll

Posted 15 April 2011 by [Comments Off]

Although phase 2 of the event was delayed, it is almost upon us so let’s hope all last weekend’s glitches have been ironed by the dev team this week. After dashing around for a couple of weeks now tackling Death rifts and buying up what I can with Otherworldly Sourcestones, so far I have enjoyed it, and I would have liked to have had more time to play this past week than I have managed.

Phase one did get off to a slow start though and it was pretty hard to actually find Death rifts but TRION thankfully ramped up their spawn rate which made this past week  which made it a lot more fun. Phase 2 kicks off this weekend and I know I can’t wait to see what TRION has in store, but what did you think of Phase one? Cast your vote Rift fans!

Our previous poll asked whether players would resubscribe to the game once their free month had run out. The results were really good with the majority loving the game and a good portion of players waiting to see how the content update would go, which as we know now is this first World Event. So good news there for TRION and the players in the months ahead. Here’s the results…
