Dev notes :

http://microsoftgamesinsider.com/AC1/Ju ... vNotes.htm

Heart of Woe

Let me tell you a tale of misery. Let me tell you of how a man came to hold power and how that power was stripped from him in an instant. Let me tell you a tale and let it twist your bones so that you know the true meaning of loss.

He was a wealthy man, having made his money in illicit trade, who spent his days thinking of ways to gain a higher station in life. His existence was solitary and joyless without the touch of money in his hands; but, when he held money and tangible wealth he was full of joy.

Eventually the man made a bargain and became important in his own right, breaking ground for the first time in years, in a land that many felt was abandoned of anything righteous or good. There, he crafted a society that would net him fortunes beyond compare, and he took a noble rank garnering political clout as well.

But along the way the man lost sight of who he was, and where he had come from. He forgot his past and thought that he could escape it. But all sane men know that there is no escaping the past.

He made enemies, he made friends, and he forgot everything that had come before. But his past remembered and now it has come calling; and in deep halls removed from the sight of prying eyes and perked ears his screams echo.

There is no escaping your past. There is no way to escape death when it comes for you. You cannot buy the loyalty of the reaper, for he doesn't want wealth. He wants your soul.

New Functionality and Content

The coalition races of Dereth are coming together to build a new stronghold in the Dires! All Isparians are invited to participate in naming this symbol of hope and unity for our future. Submit your ideas for a town name and then vote on your favorite name from the chosen few! Visit the Developer's Forum at http://forums.turbinegames.com/ for more details.
A character's natural drain resistance now protects him or her against spells that drain stamina and mana. In the past, natural drain resistance only protected against spells that drained health.
The stamina and mana drain spells have been modified to work exactly like their health-draining cousins. Please see the Letter to the Players for further explanation on these changes.
If your monarch owns a villa, you can now recall to that villa with the allegiance recall command (@house mansion_recall or @house alleg_recall).
What's that digging noise?
Miscellaneous Improvements and Changes

If a player killer has been involved in a PK battle within the last 20 seconds, the command line portal recallsâ€”house, allegiance, lifestone, or marketplaceâ€”will fail. After the 20 seconds have passed, the player can use those commands normally.
The Isparian Arms quest has been revised. See the Letter to the Players for more details.
Atlan weapons have also been revised. Ivory can now be applied to Black Fire Atlans and Shadow Atlans.
The creatures in each section of Gaerlan's Citadel have been tweaked and are now a better match for the intended level ranges of the quest.
Several more static landscape spawns have been upgraded to match their areas.
A number of new creature variations are roaming Dereth, and some older ones are looking a little more unique.
Mu-miyahs will now defend each other.
The rate at which certain Virindi drop uncarved Singularity keys has been adjusted based upon their difficulty.
The young Olthoi Queen on Marae Lassel appears to be growing more powerful.
Minor Details
Several small text issues with fishing have been fixed.
Aun Ngationa has learned his own name! And also where each piece of rubble can be usedâ€¦
The quest for the weapons of Frozen Fury now involves a dais, not a dias.

Nice job on the update Luang!

Shame the same cant be said about the patch... at least based on the dev notes and TC sayings... looks like a pretty weak patch.

Dave_Mustaine · Post by **Dave_Mustaine** » Thu Jun 19, 2003 6:27 pm

Luang: You're right about the login screen. Those two changes are there.

Also: Perfect Isparian Bows (and, im assuming crossbows) Are now droppable, but not hookable.

OHN and BDC have been updated...they have Eviscerators and Nobles in them now, and BDC has a portal to "Deeper Catacombs" or something.
