Update 37 (Pre-update) Discussion

Yeah go level so you can say hi to the arch in downtown ^_^. finally they put him in a place where he should have been to start with ^_^. and i love all the little things ESPECIALLY being able to use abilites when rooted.

For those wondering:

The Assassin's Mask is able to cause a "corruption pulse" effect when activated from the hotbar (the same way you'd activate the Awakening Jacket or Glasses). This special ability reportedly stuns everyone in a decently sized area... I'm not sure of its specific effects, but it used to be able to be activated without flagging the user. This is what has been changed.

very nice patch.... so.... we're all getting Assassin masks right... ?? =]

**keep dreaming cogno... keep dreaming**

Corruption Pulse eh? nice...

Ya I'm hoping and praying and other non writable stuff that the 7th special mask is the Assassin's Mask. Maybe SOE heard all the complaints and decided to even the playing field.

Players whose Crew or Faction data doesn't load correctly now have their reputation determine their Organization. (Fixes exploit.)

What Exactly does this mean? Which Exploit?

Walrus has already stated that the masks will only be
usable for the duration of the Halloween event. Personally I find it
sad that they will only be usable during the event however...

Well jack-o-lantern + new criticals + new bar decor = promising time for the weekend.

Kivo

Excuse my ignorance but where did Walrus say this?

What Exactly does this mean? Which Exploit?

It fixes two things, one it allows people with the bug to type /pvp and actually be attackable, while also allowing them to now attack other players who are /pvp flagged. The exploit was that people with the bug could load up any patcher type tree and go around buffing and healling without being attacked.

Yes, some much needed fixes in this patch. Wonderful. And the animations REALLY needed to go.

Since we are on the animation topic...where's our cracking ground after a hyperjump!

I have been dying to see this animation since early beta...Please!

all in good time Esky, all in good time...this will suffice for now though. It's a hell of a patch!

{SoG}Esky

Yes, Bonopi, but my argument is it has been a very long "in good time" already. Been at this game for almost 2 years now SMILEY

But yes, I agree, there was definitely some much needed stuff included
with this patch, and kudos to all involved for finally doing away with
this stuff.

How about fixing the Awakened glasses/jacket animation?

Ok i am confused when is this patch coming out. I read that it has been postponed but he said he was going to post it in accouncements and its not there.

The post about the delay is actually about halfway down on Page 8 of
the "10/21/05 Other Side of the Looking Glass", but I'm sure there'll
be an announcement in the appropriate section. The patch is going to
deploy on Wednesday or Thursday, after some additional testing.
