Hex and Condition rephrasing

I noticed just now that while I was crippled and pinged it, it said "I am suffering from the Crippled condition!". Which... sorta sounds weird, tbh. Would've been better if it said "I am Crippled!" or something like that. Was this done in this update or have I just not been paying attention? --Doll 03:54, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

That happened most certainly with this update. I agree it's still not perfect, but it is by far better than "I have Crippled on me!" :D The also changed all the other status effect announcements, e.g. "I am enchanted with Mending!" or "My stance is Drunken Master!". --84-175 (talk) 08:48, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

"Companions! I find myself in something of a predicament, suffering in extremis as I am from the dread malady of blindness! Any and all assistance you can render unto me at this most difficult of times would be gratefully received!" --NieA7 15:24, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

LOL --Hawk Skeer 19:57, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

You know, since most sources of Blindness don't last all that long, by the time you typed that out, you would no longer require the assistance being requested. :) --Thervold 23:27, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Big Update

Is it just me or is this update a bit big? When I ran the updater it said 1500+ files. --trekie9001 • tlk • 04:27, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

For the minor changes they said they added, yes, it was huge. Perhaps they've added something for the Bonus Mission Pack? No idea, but much bigger than the update notes make it out to be... --Mystisteel 05:13, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

My guess is, this included the first preparations for the BMP release. Wouldn't be the first time they snuck something huge into an update before the actual release. Besides nothing else I could think of would be this huge, not even wintersday event Liselle Morrow 12:05, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

word of healing on forgotten

and people complain they don't listen... nice job Arenanet :) --Life Infusion «T» 05:18, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

I agree, it's nice to know such issues have been noted --SK 07:44, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

People will complain about anything. If ANet "doesn't listen", i'd hate to see what they think of other companies.. :p — Skuld 07:54, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

C Dorian?

What was wrong with him?reanor 10:51, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Apparently, he attacked funnily when he used his staff (backhanded) and when he dies he'd fall and rolls backwards unlike other human characters. - 79.76.88.106 12:42, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

New Voice Files

This update introduced an interesting change/bug where many in-game NPCs have new voice files. For example, the Luxon warriors in Fort Aspenwood have the male assassin voiceset. - Zaxares 14:10, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Xunlai Tournament NPC

"The Xunlai Tournament House NPC does not seem to give out any rewards."
Erh, i just got 50 rewards last night after the patch, so at least it was working by then.--Fighterdoken 16:26, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Ok. I just moved the comment, it had been added by two users so I thought it might be correct. But it seems it's not. I'll remove it again. - anja 18:06, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

I also can't receive my tournament reward points at the moment and currently have a support ticket submitted. Perhaps this has affected people largely at random. Just something else to note, I played RA for a couple of hours last night and didn't notice any Hero Battle maps, has this been sneakily removed from RA at some point or was I just incredibly lucky? 203.109.188.155 23:37, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Pets?

Does this mean that my MM heros can no longer res minions from their/my pet's corpse? Cuz my entire necro character's heros build was based on being able to do things with the pet's and their corpses. This royaly just fucked me over.

Traveling between continents

I meant to add this earlier, do you think its worth noting that the continents changed priority on the list when traveling between them. Before it would be listed: Lion's Arch, Kaineng Center, Kamadan, Great Temple of Balthazar. Now it is: Kamadan, Kaineng Center, Lion's Arch, Great Temple of Balthazar. Just putting it out there. -- Broodling 23:20, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

Yea, I also noticed this. Quite irritating when you're used to one way of sorting :P - anja 10:08, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, before the campaigns were in release and alphabetical order. -- Dashface 09:25, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
