Skill Updates

Ranger

* Rapid Fire: now only effects bows.

Sneak Peek Weekend Quests and Skills

* Fixed a bug that prevented players from receiving PvE-only skills they had unlocked during the Sneak Peek Weekend event. Players have been retroactively rewarded with the skills that were affected by this issue.
o If you completed the quest "Attack on Jalis's Camp" during the Sneak Peek Weekend, the Great Dwarf Weapon skill will now be unlocked for your character.
o If you completed the quest "In the Service of Revenge" during the Sneak Peek Weekend, the Great Dwarf Armor skill will now be unlocked for your character.
o If you completed the quest "Destructive Research" during the Sneak Peek Weekend, the Light of Deldrimor skill will now be unlocked for your character.
o If you completed the quest "The Big Unfriendly Jotun" during the Sneak Peek Weekend, the Snow Storm skill will now be unlocked for your character.

Bug Fixes

* Fixed a bug that caused material crafters to display only the first digit of the number of items being crafted.
* Fixed a bug in the quest "A Gate Too Far" that caused some players to get stuck in the wall of the dungeon's third level.
* Fixed a bug in the quest "Attack of the Nornbear" that occasionally caused Svanir to stop moving.
* Fixed a bug that caused certain Oozes to use the skill "Ooze Replication" incorrectly so that they were replicating an infinite number of times.
* Fixed a bug that prevented Destroyer Weapons customized in the Hall of Monuments from receiving their 20% damage bonuses. This fix will not affect weapons that have already been customized, although we are currently working on a fix to restore these bonuses as well.
* Spectators in the Norn Fighting Tournament will no longer heal their favorite participants.

Miscellaneous

* Collector locations have been added to all dungeon area maps.
* Added two additional Xunlai chests to the town of Rata Sum.
* Magni the Bison now uses the correct model in the Epilogue content.
* Corrected an issue that caused Destroyer Cores to drop at a lower-than-expected rate.
* The number of Destroyer Cores needed for High Priest Alkar’s quest “Destructive Research” has been reduced from 10 to 3.
* Enabled Eye of the North skills in Automated Tournaments.
* Corrected the names of several Eye of the North skills.

I have to say this: “finally, thank you for correcting some of these horrid bugs.”

Good job, ANet.

*slaps butt*

Good game.

TechnoSword · Sep 05, 2007, 03:45 AM // 03:45

Im glad I was going WTS Destroyer Cores 3k each! before this update! Managed to sell all 15 of mine XD. Now back to getting those destroyer gloves! I only sold mine because I knew it was inevitable that they would fix that. For once I feel clever more then I feel idiotic

Mysterial · Sep 05, 2007, 03:50 AM // 03:50

This update also fixed Cracked Armor. Just in case you were actually trying to use those overcosted skills.

maraxusofk · Sep 05, 2007, 04:18 AM // 04:18

noooooooo why did they nerf rapid fire?!?!?!? that was becoming my favorite skill ever. sigh back to frenzy heal sig for me.

Darkobra · Sep 05, 2007, 04:24 AM // 04:24

Before this update,184 destroyers later, 1 core. Glad this got fixed.

reddswitch · Sep 05, 2007, 04:31 AM // 04:31

I've got to ask, what about hero and dungeon books? It's not fair to ask players to spend an additional 5 hours or more to re-do them. Some of us aren't so keen on repeating (farming) things over and over.

gabazieute · Sep 05, 2007, 04:32 AM // 04:32

Nice
Next update, could it be possible to have an option to toggle the "flashing-when-hit" effect ?
I find it very annoying, and it shouldn't be very healthy for people with epilepsies like condition

RSGashapon · Sep 05, 2007, 04:34 AM // 04:34

Missing change:

* Reduced the crafting material requirement for Chaos Gloves from 75 Ectoplasm to 25.

Still higher than Obsidian armor, but less insane.

This update fails to deliver.

manitoba1073 · Sep 05, 2007, 04:36 AM // 04:36

It's not rape if you yell "SUPRISE!!!"

kazjun · Sep 05, 2007, 04:44 AM // 04:44

Nice that they fixed the skill rewards so you can actually get them, good job.

Why do you care about dungeon/hero books? Their sole purpose is the feeble 2.5k points at the end. If you want to read the text or look at the pictures, just read the wiki(s) that have copied and hyperlinked them all already.

Burning Blade · Sep 05, 2007, 04:58 AM // 04:58

I just played a bit and wondered why I got so many destroyer cores while the other character that finished the game received none during his entire journey

Nice update!
