While we're hard at work testing Game Update 1.3 on the Public Test Server, we still have many Hot Fixes coming your way. Here's today's round of Hot Fixes:

Content

Quests

Time to Waaagh!: Players will now be given clear directions where to use the War Bellow in order to summon Wazgit.

Public Quests

The Enemy Within: Peasants will now more consistently be able to escape, which will resolve an issue that could in some cases stop the Public Quest from progressing properly.
The Ebon Keep: Fixed an issue that could allow Destruction realm players to attack the monsters in Stage 1 of this Empire Chapter 22 Public Quest.
The Shrine of Tethlis: Fixed an issue that was preventing all of the monsters from spawning, which in turn was preventing players from being able to advance the Public Quest to stage 2.

Realm vs. Realm

Population caps for both sides have both been slightly lowered, however the ratio of attackers to defenders remains similar.

Invader Token Cost Adjustments
]]> http://www.bringerofouchies.com/2009/05/hot-fix-51809-invader-crest-improvements/feed/ 0 Hot Fix Notes – 05/14/09 http://herald.warhammeronline.com/warherald/NewsArticle.war?id=791 http://herald.warhammeronline.com/warherald/NewsArticle.war?id=791#comments Thu, 14 May 2009 16:33:58 +0000 Faim http://791 Quartermaster Pricing Update

We are pleased to announce that, following careful study of game metrics and valuable feedback from our players, we have completed a sweeping revision to the pricing of items available from RvR Quartermaster merchants. We think you'll be pleased with the results, as we've reduced the costs of many items by as much as 40 to 50 percent. Here are some other highlights of the change:

Global Price Reduction: We have reduced the amount of medallions needed to purchase many armor sets by up to 50% for the complete set.

Scaling Cost for Items: We have adjusted the pricing of individual items, greatly reducing the costs for a few pieces of a set, and only slightly decreasing the price on the more rare pieces. Now there will always be one or two easy-to-obtain pieces and one or two pieces that are harder to obtain.

Player Drops Improved: Previously, only players that were Rank 36 and higher would have a chance to drop Officer Medallions. We have expanded the level range at which these medallions can drop, and as a result, players that are Rank 30 and higher now have a chance to drop Officer Medallions.

Invader PQ Adjusted: Capital city Invader Public Quests will now drop two Invader Crests by default. The cost of Invader Crests has also increased to reflect this. As a result of these changes, players will earn Invader equipment slightly faster then before, but will need to earn more crests to do so.

RvR Quest Rewards: Players will now receive token rewards for the repeatable chain RvR quests available at warcamps, and for the defense quests available at Keeps, Fortresses, and Battlefield Objectives.

General

Muck Chompas will no longer be affected by the Powder-Sniffin' Squig's explosion if they've been tagged for combat.
