====================================
Dark Age of Camelot
Test Version 1.60a Release Notes
Wednesday, January 29, 2003
====================================
NEW THINGS AND BUG FIXES
- The Looking for Group window is now sortable by clicking on the column headers.
- Runes should no longer misprint the name of the first target they hit
- Area of Effect spells should no longer affect group members' camoflauge timers
- Players can no longer become realm level 11. Realm Level 10 is the highest.
- You can no longer upgrade a keep door while mezzed, paralyzed, or in shade mode
- It should no longer be possible to earn exp from a duel, which was possible by using a number of class/pet combinations.
- Bonedancer pet levels will be counted in a more consistent way. This will fix a bug which allowed them to summon the pets in a certain order to have more pet levels total than were intended.
- Previously, there was a bug with name registration, where you would get a message that you already had a last name, even when you didn't. This erroneous message has been removed.
- If a necromancer is in a group which does all of the damage to a target without the necro/pet attacking at all and the rest of the group is killed, the monster should try to attack the pet, not the shade.
- Chat groups can hold up to 200 members
- Relics are now given up to 60 seconds to transfer between zones. This should fix most of the problems with players transferring between regions and losing their relic.

Hibernia Quests
- Blademasters who received the Ixthiar Skin Bracer of Silent Resistance can exchange it for the Ixthiar Skin Bracer of Strength by taking it back to Krazck in World's End. Players must have the quest Corruptors, Botonids and Trade in their completed quests list to exchange the bracer. From now on, Blademasters will receive the Ixthiar Skin Bracer of Strength as their reward for this quest.
- Twisted Evil - Raiaya now refers correctly to the quest rewards Song of the Vines, Song of the Scythe, and Song of Stealth.
Midgard
- Some of the guards in Aegirhamn, Dyfjell, Bjarkan, and Hagall have been moved inside the town. This should make it a little easier for players using the /where command.
- Changed the "Enraged Scimitar Kit" in Aegir's Landing so the mob can no longer be given as a kill task.
- Some low level mob spawns near Aegir's Land in the newbie area were causing mobs to roam beyond the wall of the zone. This was changed so that mobs should no longer spawn or roam behind zone walls.
Hibernia
- Guardians Moirne and Pairu have been moved inside the Grove of Domnann.
- Guardians have been moved inside the two forts of Droighaid. This should help players using the /where command.

- Tuscarian Bloodforged Sleeves had the thrown skill value replaced with parry. All sleeves will update.
- The Temmelig bracelet, one of the rewards for the Catla's Downfall quest has had its bonuses slightly modified to give players a higher bonus in Charisma and less of a bonus to Battlesongs.
- Scureol's Belt, from the Ogre's Might Quest, previously had Piety 5 and Constitution 5.
Because this belt is given to both Friars and Infiltrators, the 5 Constitution has been changed to Dexterity 5.
ITEM NOTES (SI & Classic)
- A few new armor skins for the high teens to low 40's players have been added as new items in various places around the old lands and Shrouded Isles.
COOPERATIVE SERVER NOTES
- All classes should now be able to complete the Mammoth Hunt Quest.
- Valewalkers and Animists should now be able to complete the Albion quest, Voices of the Dead.
- Grand Lord Martel has been adjusted a bit more.
Then posted this correction: CORRECTION - Rune of Decimation (Runemaster only Realm Ability) should no longer misprint the name of the first target it hits (instead of "- Runes should no longer misprint the name of the first target they hit") ADDITION - Every crafter material that can be bought from an NPC merchant has had their default quantity set to one. Meaning that when you buy a craft component without the macro or the slider bar, you will get one single "doohickey."
