Warhammer Online Patch Notes

[Tenebrous]

This thread is for Warhammer patch notes so that there isn't a large number floating around. It is mainly for bigger updates but smaller revisions may be included as well.

Updated 12/11/08 - Patch 1.1a

General Changes & Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue that was causing monsters' death animations to play several seconds after the actual event of the monster's death. Monster death animations will now play more in sync with their actual deaths.
• The change in travel costs for Flight Masters has been reduced to their original 1.06 amounts.
• Players will no longer randomly fade in and out of view.
• Fixed several issues that caused players to crash to desktop and improved client stability.

Combat and Careers

Archetype Morale Abilities

• Focused Mind: This ability will once again correctly decrease casting build times by 50%.

Items

• Sinister Blade: Removed the erroneous Engineer career requirement from this weapon.
• Corrected erroneous Renown Rank requirements on the Devastator armor set shoulder and chest pieces.
• Hornbreaka Stabba: This item was erroneously set to be a Great Weapon. This issue has been fixed, and Squig Herders will now once again be able to equip it.
• Shields that were previously not applying a block % in the character window will now correctly apply the bonus.

Quests and Public Quests

• A Taste of Their Own Medicine: Players will now receive proper credit for the quest condition when firing the Eagle Claw.

Realm vs. Realm

• The focal point of our new Open RvR Influence system is mortal combat between players of enemy realms. In order to ensure that player-versus-player battles provide the best source of Influence in the Open RvR areas, we have adjusted the amount of Influence associated with capturing Battlefield Objectives, Keeps, and Fortresses. We have only adjusted the values for offense, i.e. capturing an Objective. The values for defending an Objective will remain, in order to encourage players to reap the benefits of defending their realm’s Objectives. These changes bring the amount of Influence earned for these actions in line with the rest of the Open RvR Influence system.
• Fixed an issue on Open RvR rule-set servers that was preventing the chicken debuff from affecting high-level players in low-level open RvR areas. High-level players will once again be turned into a chicken if they should venture into RvR areas that are too low for their rank.
• Scenarios will no longer remain open if there are not enough players present from both sides.
