News & Notes
Classes
Many
Bard songs that previously shared cooldowns no longer do. In addition, some single-target Songs had their cooldown timers reduced.
The
Monk's Quivering Palm ability is getting some revisions related to its DC, as part of investigation into balancing Death effects:
Quivering Palm no longer benefits from Sundering bonuses. However, whenever an enemy saves vs. Quivering Palm, you get a stacking +4 bonus to your Quivering Palm DC. This stack is dispelled when you successfully kill someone with Quivering Palm.
General Tactical combat boosts to Quivering Palm have been restored (except for Sundering effects.)
This is the full text of Quivering Palm:
“Melee Attack: Deliver a fatal attack by sending waves of vibrations through your target. A successful Fortitude save negates this effect. (DC = 10 + 1/2 Monk Level + Wisdom Modifier + Tactics Bonus) When an enemy saves vs. Quivering Palm, you gain a stacking +4 Perseverance bonus to your DC until you kill an enemy with Quivering Palm (or 3 minutes pass).”
Grasp the Earth Dragon no longer sometimes triggers enemy-targeted effects on allies.
Characters who are currently undead are now immune to the Fatigued effect from exiting the Barbarian Rage state.
Enhancements
Cleric Radiant Servant
Positive Energy Aura should now work properly, even when you don't have anything targeted.
Epic Destinies: diversamente da quanto ci avevano promesso su Lamannia per avere il nuovo destino epico nella sfera divina sembra si aspetterà ancora un pò, una delle patch che seguiranno l'update
Items: alcuni cambiamenti
The +1 and +2 Spell Focus augments (Topaz of <spell school> and Topaz of Greater <spell school>) stack with Spell Focus bonuses on regular equipment. (They do not stack with each other.)
All item effects that were previously called "Exceptional Sneak Attack Bonus" are now called "Insightful Sneak Attack Bonus" to reflect their actual bonus type. The functionality of these effects has not changed.
All potions should now be able to be used while enraged.
The Quiver of Poison is now Bind on Acquire, instead of claiming it was Bind on Equip, as this type of item is unable to function properly as Bind on Equip.
Spell absorbtion now protects against negative level spells.
The effects of the Potion of Wonder have been updated. (la notizia che tutti aspettavamo..)

Quests and Adventure Areas
A feature is now available that allows you to receive and immediately consume a Siberys Spirit Cake with Astral Shards when you die: just click on the “Revive” button that appears near the Quest Objective panel when you die. This feature is not usable in Raids. Note that it is still possible to obtain cakes by navigating the DDO Store and using Turbine Points. (giusto per quelli di voi che si chiedevano che fosse il nuovo bottone..sempre a pensarne una per far spendere astral shards..)
House of Death Undone
Players must now obtain the green "Kitchen" Key to unlock a door to the Kitchen. The key will randomly spawn in either the "House Temple to Lolth" room or the "Servant's Quarters" room. (dato che probabilmente quella quest si faceva troppo velocemente..)
Through A Mirror Darkly
The Mirror now drops rather than be destroyed if you exit the quest.
Fixed a bug which would create an increasingly harsh bright lighting effect the more players you had huddled in close proximity to each other. (no, questo non mi invoglierà a fare quella quest..
)
Reincarnation
The XP bonus found on Experience Elixirs, VIP bonuses, Guild Airship amenities and items now also increases the Commendation of Valor return found in End Reward lists. (geniale no? tenete sempre su il Voice e non prendete la ricompensa senza prima esservi ribuffati in nave, in caso..)
Spells
Teleport Spell: The "Teleport to Crafting Hall" selection now takes you to the House Cannith crafting hall, instead of House Kundarak.
UI
Monster Manual slayer counts and Wilderness Area slayer counts in the Adventure Compendium no longer update until a player logs out and then logs back in. This change was made to improve game performance.
Miscellaneous Changes
There is a now a (very small) chance of winning +6 Tomes and +5 to +6 upgrade tomes through Daily Dice. (così, giusto perchè ci speriate ma non crediate chissàchè..)
Dice and his gambling game are no longer available in the Phoenix Tavern. Allegedly there was quite the incident there one night. Either way, he's gone now, and the Coin Lords disavow his existence. (altra cosa essenziale che bisognava fare..)
Typing more than 250 characters will no longer delete the first characters typed. Instead, you will be prevented from typing more.
