Feldon Here are today’s update notes from the EQ2 Forums:
GENERAL
Fixed a placement issue with certain moveable objects (for instance, the portals will now place properly during the Zynos fight in Anchor of Bazzul).
ACHIEVEMENTS
Characters who have completed “Your Eternal Reward” should now receive the “Agent of Freeport” achievement.
MERCENARIES
Shaman mercenaries should no longer continue to think they are in combat when it comes to casting wards on their group. They will still cast their out of combat preward spells.
ZONE PROGRESSION / POPULATION
Sundered Frontier
Fixed name on lingering slitherspines.
Tower of Tactics [Challenge]
Ambassador Grindstone will no longer reapply his Unbridled Fury of the Elements buff as soon as he has dispelled player debuffs, he waits a few seconds.
Ambassador Grindstone no longer casts Crystalline Torrent Spell.
Vallonite Sentinels no longer memwipe when they cast Sentinel’s Touch.
Vallonite Sentinels no longer taunt lock players during the fight.
Tallon’s Stronghold [Challenge]
During the Tallon Zek fight Deathbringer’s Touch is now cureable as a curse.
Tallon Zek will warn players as he teleports and will not fire his arrow volley until 10 seconds after he changes his location.
Fighters will not take as harsh a punishment if they turn their back on Tallon Zek as he is firing arrows.
TRADESKILL APPRENTICE
Tradeskill Apprentice daily reward potions are now treasured and stack to 200.
The Potion of Hastened Learning will now give +25% experience gain.
ITEMS
The Dragonflame Scale Shield is now Beastlord usable.
Corpse items can no longer be added to the broker. [Ed: This means all ‘vendor trash’ items which include “You might be able to sell this to a merchant for a few coin.” are now non-brokerable. Unfortunately, this included fertilizer items which will be fixed in a future update..]
QUESTS
The quests “A Rat’s a Rat’s a Rat,” “A Cleansing This Temple Needs…,” and “Entering the Veil” should again update properly.
The City of Freeport
The quest “Grobb, Not Forgotten” should now reward the proper reward. Players who have already completed the quest may seek out Viducius in East Freeport to pick up their reward.
Thurgadin
Frizella Emberblossom is now more willing to give the Thudomatonian Monotony quest if you forgot to pick it up before.
Hopefully they fixed the problem with putting fertilizer on the broker … can’t do it as of this afternoon. Oops.
@kwill did you see Rothgars post about it, it was kind of blunt, going you guys asked for it we gave it to you.
Still waiting for my white cowl that’s supposed to be in game already.
I would like to go look at Rothgar’s post, but the forums seem to be having a problem — I get a 404 error. Anyone else can’t see the forums?
Same Problem as Kwill

TADAAA … 😉
Ps.:
Note from SJ:
Lol. Sorry, folks. I went on a two-week vacation starting at the beginning of January. It’s nice to know I was missed. SMILEY
GU 63 (the next installment of DoV) is in April, not February. You’ll start hearing about it soon. The Qeynos revamp (GU 64) is after that in mid-Summer.

@kwill ok here it is
“Here’s a thread from late last year where people were complaining about all the “junk” items on the broker.
http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/…topic_id=504565
Here’s another thread where people were asking for a “sell all junk” type of feature to instantly sell everything in their bags that don’t have a purpose other than for coin.
http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/…46�
The point of this change is to keep things off the broker that have no usefulness in the game except to be converted to coin at a merchant. If any items were flagged as junk that have an actual use (like fertilizers) they should be fixed.”
The quoted is from this post http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/posts/list.m?start=25&topic_id=514002�
I found his reply to be a bit snarky but then I expect that nowdays from him.
@ Kwill I was having the same Issue last night, but it seems to be resolved.
Now that the forums are back up, I noticed an interesting post from SJ http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/posts/list.m?topic_id=513995 :
I seem to recall February being the suggested date, but I could be wrong.
Smoke previously said February. It’s not surprising that he was blowing more smoke though.
I posted something about this on the thread concerning the dungeon finder. Bad form to try to pretend that it wasn’t February, it was originally.
So he’s back, but pretending like everything is just fine in his world … and if you want a cute unicorn mount, it is!
I think he should have posted he was on vacation for two weeks in January, instead of making people wonder … isn’t that what facebook is for? Whatever!
A rat’s a rat’s a rat : hey i reported that one and it’s fixed… Looks like i’m not reporting for nothing 🙂
