Update Notes: Tuesday, January 8, 2013
Written by Feldon on Monday, January 7, 2013 at 8:44 pm

Here are your Update Notes for Tuesday, January 8, 2013 from the EQ2 Forums:

GENERAL

  • You can now invite another player to create a raid even if they have a mercenary but you do not.
  • You can now fill remaining spaces in your bags from your overflow via /empty_overflow or from right-clicking on the overflowing inventory icon.

GUILD HALL AMENITIES

  • The standard bearer should now offer guild markers for use in marking strategic locations within instances. Only those marked as a raid looter can remove these markers.

TRADESKILLS

  • The Refine ability icon should now refresh instantly, as the recast time suggests.
  • Refining metals will no longer have a chance to return a refined loam.
  • Default primary components for the recipe creation page will now default to unrefined components, if available. Changing the quantity will pull any primary components available, including refined.

ITEMS

  • Level 90+ spirit stones now start as Legendary.
  • Drednever journal pages will now go into the Collectibles container.
  • Obols and Greater Spirits for the Steward merchant now drop for everyone that is eligible.
  • Obols are no longer flagged as "Ethereal".
  • Fixed a bug that was causing Obols to drop from every kill in the Altar of Abhorrence.

GUILD HALL AMENITIES

The standard bearer should now offer 'guild markers for use in marking strategic locations within instances'. Only those marked as a raid looter can remove these markers.

Finally, Obols for everyone, instead of those favored by the RNG! (Full disclosure: not favored by the RNG)

Woot, FINALLY no more Obolquest 2. THANK YOU! I don't have to feedback everyday!

These strategic markers are really lousy designed. It should act like a house item and you can place it anywhere without named aggro'ing on sight, instead it has 3seconds casting time and place it under your feet. I was only given Examine and Destroy options afterward.

also lousy designed in the costing of 60g EACH for 1 use

If the makers can be used in public zones, then I think I understand the 0.60p cost per use. How long would it take for them to appear by the thousands at your favourite watering hole?

...which raises a new question: where is the new 'hub' since the new expansion pack released? It's not Sky Shrine. Maybe the city in Obol plains? Just guild halls, again?

Since the update on 1/8/2013, my game seems to continually go into a non-responding mode. Worked great prior to that. Is there an incompatibility with the Windows 8 system -- which was also had a major UPDATE on the same day.

There's been a "hub" since the introduction of Guild halls?
