March 31, 2011 Update Notes

Written by Feldon on . Posted in Game Updates & Maintenance, Itemization, Live Events

Today’s Update Notes for March 31, 2011 bring those Itemization changes we’ve been hearing about, a redesign of the Storm Gorge Public Quest, and the Aether Races flying event has now been folded into City Festivals, starting with Antonica. From SmokeJumper:

There will be a new track for each city until we start looping around again. Each city’s track will only be available during the City Festival and you can earn festival coins and titles when you race.

We might trot them all out at once at Tinkerfest or something, but they’ll usually be linked individually to the City Festivals now.

The full update notes after the jump…

    I’ve been trying to get my Chest Piece for my Templar for two and half weeks. Its becoming quite annoying now that I’ve been working so hard to get something I need. I’ve been doing both PQ SG and RW. I constantly is getting Humming Cache or Pulsating Cache. I just end up in getting a the AA for it. Any advice or recommendations on getting my Chest piece. I know its random, but it becomes quite frustrating for something I’ve bee on for two and half weeks.

    The gap in power between easy and challenge mode raid items has been increased.

    Hopefully the gap’s in the proper direction now… 😉
