Camelot Patch Notes

Straight from the Camelot Herald:

===================================

Dark Age of Camelot

Version 1.67e Test Release Notes

December 12, 2003

===================================

TRIALS OF ATLANTIS ENCOUNTER CHANGES

We are making a number of changes to how credit is awarded for Atlantis encounters, as well as allowing players to ‘work ahead’ of their current Master Level, which should allow players to gain a better sense of accomplishment for helping others defeat an encounter. We appreciate everyone’s feedback about Trials of Atlantis, and we hope that these changes will greatly improve the Atlantis experience for everyone involved. We will continue to review areas of Atlantis, and Dark Age of Camelot as a whole, in a continuing effort to improve the entire Dark Age of Camelot experience for all players.

ATLANTIS ENCOUNTER CREDIT CHANGES

– We have identified and corrected a problem that could cause players to not be awarded credit for completing an encounter. With this version, we will be changing artifact and trial encounters to award credit to the group that gets loot rights from the encounter. Battlegroups will also follow this new system if the encounter is battlegroup enabled. This should solve many of the problems players have with not being awarded encounter crdit properly. However, please note that any players that are not in the group or battlegroup when credit is awarded will still not get credit.

MASTER LEVEL FINAL ENCOUNTER CREDIT CHANGE

– Currently, players who have not finished their current trial can do all the steps except the final encounter of a higher level trial. With this patch, players will be able to do all encounters of a trial, even if they have not finished their previous trial. Please note that players will still get master level abilities in order.

Here’s an example, if you have not finished the first trial, you can now go do Runihara in trial two and receive credit (if you’ve completed all the other encounters in trial two), but you will not get the level two abilities until you’ve finished the first trial, and then completed the second level’s experience requirement.

SHROUDED ISLES WORLD NOTES

Albion Quests

– Friars will no longer have to travel back to the trainers in the classic zones to exchange their Friar Robes every five levels. Sister Evangeline in Caer Gothwaite will now perform this exchange for Friars.

TRIALS OF ATLANTIS WORLD NOTES

Quests – General

– Players working on obtaining the Scarab Wing Vest will now need to have neutral faction with the maubastet to turn in their Magical Scarab Wing to Tey.

Item Notes

– The skiff (all realms), Viking Longship (Midgard), British Cog (Albion), and Elvish Caravel (Hibernia) can now be sold back to NPC merchants for 75% of the purchase price.
