From the EQ2 Forums:

POPULATION / ZONE PROGRESSION

  • Players may now enter the plane of war, once someone on the server has defeated all 3 demigods of war (Sullon, Vallon and Tallon Zek) in challenge mode.

Drunder x4 raid zones

  • Players can now enter the challenge mode Drunder x4 raid zones without having killed the previous demi-god in challenge mode.

Sullon’s Spire x4 raid [Challenge Mode]

  • Aaranae Acrimae: Her adds have less health. The rage devourer no longer casts the aoe multistrike.

Tower of Frozen Shadow

  • Tserrina Syl’Tor should now more reliably react to players attempting to remove her curse.
  • Tserrina Syl’Tor should now drop secondary items more often.
  • The tower should now react appropriately if you leave the zone after having killed bosses and return at a later date.

    When I checked last night, most of the cloaks from SF were still white and blank. I hope they keep working on it!

    I honestly laughed out loud when I read this. The scroll-bearer has been an undercon since February 2006. 5 1/2 years later they decide that’s not a good idea? lol.

    Me too. It also makes me wonder about how resources are assigned. Somehow, for 2.5 years, we’ve all been able to kill that guy and get our hat. It’s an old quest and has been done successfully by thousands of people. Why does it get a dev assigned to adjust it, with so much stuff being outright broken in the current game?

    I am glad they changed this back!
