Common items? Does that mean anything things other than medium/living quality?

Bandits and other NPC corpses were vanishing to fast once dead, you could not loot them. This is now fixed.

That's a nice little fix. I can finally get a few more dapper from them...


Specific attacks implying Stamina lost from the target will now work as intended.

Anyone know what attacks induce Stamina loss?


I am shocked that the TPs were not mentioned... hopefully something they forgot to add here... I would have thought that that would be a high priority, fixing all tps... maybe a feature so we can't easily move about....

Overall, not a bad patch, added some new content, upgrade apartments/guild halls... To me it just seems like something is missing... range fix maybe... i mean the bulk on launcher ammo is rediculous...

A critical hit to the chest causes stamina loss

A critical hit to the chest causes stamina loss

Gotcha thanks, now that would be a great stanza... CRITICAL HIT %... surprised that isn't already implemented...

I'm more excited about this patch than any other. The encylopedia is finally here, the reason I am playing this game. I'm a huge story person so this sort of content is what I live for. Of course now the race will be on to see who can unlock the most entires.

Uh huh Want to team up? Two heads are better than one... then again we could start an event as soon as the servers are up... the more people the merrier and faster

the TPs that arent working especially in high lvl areas are supposed to be content-related according to a GM. so this is not a bug i'm afraid and we'll have to wait a while till they work.

i'm most surprised they didnt fix harvesting in the roots, or is this fixed in stealth?

Sounds like a plan to me!

content related?, ah well, i guess that makes sense sort of...

probably won't be fixed... to deter little forage newbies like me to forage q100 mats there

Sounds like a plan to me!

I will be at Yrk Main Gates when I log in... probably going to go check out the mounts first (who isn't!), lets hope they are about 500k and food isn't too pricy...
