From the EQ2 Forums:

POPULATION / ZONE PROGRESSION

Kunark

  • Creatures found within Kylong Plains, Kunzar Jungle, Fens of Nathsar and Jarsath Wastes are once again dropping items.

Stonebrunt Highlands

  • Vreshana Kestral will no longer send characters to The Palace of Roehn Theer if they opt not to go.

Tower of Frozen Shadow (X2 Raid)

  • Bosses should now drop pure primal velium shards when defeated.

The Tower of Vuul (X2 Raid)

  • Bosses should now drop pure primal velium shards when defeated.

Elements of War

  • The buff package Ire of Zek was incorrectly displaying crit bonus. The actual buff should read “Ire of Zek grants 150% Critical Bonus and 150% Critical Avoidance. This includes innate Crit Bonus.” Nothing on the buff package has been changed except for the description.

TRADESKILLS

  • Successfully countering the Far Seas Innovation event while crafting now has a chance to reward you with a Seed of Growth, and Far Seas Tokens are no longer a possible reward.
  • The Lucky Wolf Paw from the introductory crafting quest is no longer incorrectly flagged as Legendary.

ITEMS

  • Many cloaks that had solid white appearances or no appearance at all should now have a valid appearance.
  • Adornments of any level that grant Strength, Agility, Intelligence, Wisdom, Multiattack, Spell Reuse, Spell Casting Speed, Haste, and Ability Mod should now be usable in the charm slot.
  • Golden Path adornments now have no level requirement.
  • Quested adornments should no longer make the items they adorn no-value.
  • Torklar’s Battlehammer can now be used by all fighters and priests.
  • Velious rare spawns and Elements of War items that had their crit reduced should be back to normal now.
  • The Longarm Bow and The Bow of the Underfoot’s ranges should be back to normal.

QUESTS

  • The Empowered Ghoulbane should be available on the Shady Swashbuckler in Nektulos Forest for those who have completed the quest “Ghoulbane Empowered”.
  • Ginwyss at T’Vatar Outpost will now properly complete The Missing Recruit quest in Darklight Woods.
  • The Brigand Epic is no longer gated at the Madame Dulcine section requiring robes or boxes.

    WTF? So now when we craft for the Far Seas we no longer have a chance of finding a Far Seas coin layin around? Instead, we get an Emerald Halls raid drop item? How does this make any sense?

    I THINK I caught all of these that are in the adornment calculator. If anyone sees any I missed, let me know.

    @James, I think the idea was that getting a far seas coin was not as attractive a reward anymore, given how easy they are to get now. I know that whenever I countered a far seas innovation, the last thing I wanted to see was a coin appear in my inventory.

    So, I was heard the CC for levels under 80 was supposed to be fixed in this downtime… my inquisitor is sitting at 53% Crit Bonus and 2% crit chance, it just aggrivates me…. will it be fixed? or no?

    LOL. We’ve been telling noobs to click on her and watching them speed off to the Palace for months, now. Good while it lasted. 🙂
