Patch 1870 to 1872 was released 1 September, 2009. Version 2.0.11.1872

Changes & Fixes


 * Bungas won't respawn immediately anymore
 * The boss loot from the Heart of the Ocean boss will now have one fixed attribute and the chance of two more random attributes.
 * A looting bug has been fixed (no more ninja-looting!)
 * A bug with character names has been fixed (character names can no longer be in lower case or contain numbers).
 * An error with "Source of Chaos" that would increase the speed of players has been fixed.
 * The title-interface bug has been fixed.
 * The Amulet of Light and the matching recipe now are items of lv. 3 rarity.
 * Durability issues with items from the Weeping Coast merchants have been resolved.
 * Varanas Nightmare:
 * The red glowing rifts have been spread out a bit more.
 * The mobs that had spawned right next to the entrance have been moved away.
 * The "Corpse Nightmare", "Cold Nightmare" and "Storm Nightmare" mobs are now a little bit less aggressive and act within a closer radius around their designated "portals".
 * An error that would occur and interrupt the Nightmare script has been fixed.
 * Players will no longer accumulate debt when dying in Varanas Nightmare.
 * You are now able to swap your equipment when actively engaged in combat. This is a temporary measure until we have changed the code. Until now only the "swap equipment" button was greyed out. Some players were able to circumvent this with a macro. We are looking into a lasting solution to prevent players from swapping equipment.

Localisation Updates


 * Fixed "deposit" and "pick-up" tooltip in the house friend function being inverted. The button icon was already indicating the correct function. (EN)
 * Fixed names and titles for several NPCs: "Vahtos' Apprentice" / "Lehrling des Vahtos" / "Apprentie de Vahtos" / "Aprendiz de Vahtos" (EN+DE+FR+ES)
 * Lv. 50 Elite Skills and their requirements have been edited and are now translated correctly.
 * The description of the "Resurrection" skill has been adjusted to make the death penalty reduction comparable to the "Advanced..." and "Suprene..." resurrection skills. Note: The functionality of the skill was not changed. (All languages.)
