Citazione di: "Deshowned"._. ... voglio sta 1.7 ora Q_Q

Infatti la caricano stanotte

[spoiler]== FEATURES ==
 * PvP: Prestige updates, PvP Planar Attunements, and Warfront Mercenaries, oh my. Check out the PvP Update sections for a lot of info on the latest in RIFT PvP.
 * Sweeping changes have come to the progression of gear at levels 45+. See ITEMIZATION ADJUSTMENTS, below, for details.
 * No matter who you are, you now have twice as many Expert Dungeons to play in! The two tiers of Expert Dungeon difficulty have been combined into one.
 * The new Soul Preset system is now available for use by all players, old and new. Check out USING A PRESET BUILD for info on how you can use the new, optional Purposes to try out new specs.
 * Playing RIFT with that special someone? Maybe you'd like to propose at the top of the Stonefield waterfall? IN-GAME WEDDINGS are now available for Ascended.
 * A new Chronicle appears! Grab a friend and disguise yourself as Endless Cultists to infiltrate and sabotage Alsbeth's plans within the River of Souls!
 * The Master Mode of Caduceus Rise is now available for the conquering!
 * A sixth role is now available for purchase!

 * KNOWN ISSUE: Augmented items are getting some incorrect positive and negative bonuses with the 1.7 version. This is being fixed and the bonuses received from Augments should be returning to 1.6 values shortly.


LEVEL 45+ ITEMIZATION ADJUSTMENTS
 * With this patch we're focusing on improving gear progression in endgame content. The goal is to create a smoother high-end item progression and to ensure level 50 players can be competitive in either/both PvE or PvP with a clear route of content to upgrade through.
 * The following improvements are being implemented toward this goal:
 * Content tier adjustments to better match with the items granted:
 - Intro 50 content: level 50 Dungeons, Chronicles, Rifts, and Zone Events.
 - "Tier 1": Expert Dungeons, Ember Isle, early Prestige Ranks, Expert Rifts, and Zone Events.
 - "Tier 2": Master Dungeons, entry Raids and Slivers, mid-Prestige Ranks, Raid Rifts, and Zone Events.
 - "Tier 3": Difficult Raids and Slivers, high-end Prestige Ranks.
 * Items will improve consistently between tiers of content, instead of having small improvements early on followed by huge power jumps in later tiers.
 * The overall power of a new level 50 character will be increased slightly, and the power differential for items between 50 and top-tier content will progress more evenly.

DUNGEON, EXPERT DUNGEON, AND CHRONICLE IMPROVEMENTS
 * The biggest change in support of the above progression is the combining of Expert Dungeons to a single difficulty tier, which impacts both gear dropped as well as LFG reward categories. The rest of the level 50 Dungeons and Chronicle content will be getting minor balance tweaks and major itemization adjustments.
 * After these changes, the difficulty and rewards from content should be clearer between Chronicles/Level 50 Dungeons and Expert Dungeons.


PVP UPDATES
 * In the ongoing effort to more appropriately match up characters of different ranks, and give a smoother entry to high-level PvP, we will be revamping the existing Prestige system in 1.7.
 * The Prestige system has expanded from 8 ranks to 40 - existing ranks will be converted to the appropriate rank on the updated scale.
 * Bolstering is now enabled for level 50 Warfronts. Players entering a level 50 Warfront below Rank 13 will have their stats boosted to be more effective for both rank-appropriate and mixed-rank Warfronts.
 * Marks of Retribution gained from closing PvP Rifts and completing weekly quests are now consumables that grant 1600 Favor.
 * Existing Marks of Retribution have been converted back to Favor at 1600 Favor per Mark. Players who find themselves exceeding the current Favor cap after the conversion will need to spend that excess Favor and get below the cap before more can be earned.
 * Reinforced Crystallized Insight is now available for purchase from Girdoom in Meridian and Templar Zim in Sanctum. These consumables grant 100,000 Planar Attunement experience at a cost of 15,000 Favor.
 * PvP Rifts: To encourage open-world PvP hotspots, only one PvP Rift can now be active at one time across all zones. Sealing a PvP Rift now grants a buff to your entire faction, 'Prismatic Glory', which increases Strength, Dexterity, Intelligence, Wisdom, and Endurance by 10, as well as increasing Prestige, Favor, and Planar Attunement experience gains by 5%.
 * Removed grey-item drops from player corpses, and significantly increased coin drops.

PVP SOUL UPDATES - PVP PLANAR ATTUNEMENT
 * With 1.7, the PvP-specific Souls have been converted into a Planar Attunement-based character enhancement.
 * A large amount of Planar Attunement experience is granted each time you gain a Rank in PvP. Yes, this will be granted retroactively for ranks already gained.
 * The Achievement, 'I've Got Soul and I Am a Soldier" is now a Legacy Achievement.

PVP EQUIPMENT UPDATES
 * We have made changes to Armor Mitigation in PVP to address a disparity between Physical and Elemental defenses. This will result in characters with high Armor Mitigation for their Calling at level 50 having the mitigation reduced in PvP and being hit by Physical attacks for damage values closer to current Elemental damage values.
 * Removed Rank requirements from all PvP armor sets. You still need to purchase sets sequentially, but the limiting factor is now total Favor gained rather than rank.
 * PvP weapons and Synergy Crystals will still require specific ranks to purchase and equip.
 * PvP Synergy Crystals have a reduced notoriety requirement to equip. A new set requiring Rank 40 and Revered with the Order of the Eye or The Unseen has been added.
 * The previously-Rank 3 and Rank 4 gear is now available without prior purchase requirements.
 * The previously-Rank 7 and Rank 8 armor has been upgraded to include Vengeance, and the amount of Critical Hit on it reduced slightly.
 * Increased the amount of Valor provided by all PvP armor sets.
 * Added Valor to PvP set weapons.
 * PvP Armor merchants now stock Bows for Defiants and Guns for Guardians.
 * Rank 25 and Rank 36 Two-Handed Swords now available for Defiants.
 * PvP: One-handed Axes are now available for Guardians and Defiants at rank 1, 12, 25, and 36.
 * Rank 25 and 36 Two-Handed Axes are now available for Guardians.
 * PvP Armor set merchants now display items filtered by Calling. Filtering can still be disabled if you'd like to purchase items designed for other Callings.
 * Costume versions of PvP Rank armor are now available from Desma Chontos in Meridian, and Templar Sanzo in Sanctum. These still have rank requirements to equip.

WARFRONTS - NOW WITH MERCENARIES
 * In order to reduce queue times to as near-zero as possible, players may be added the opposing faction's Warfront team as a "Mercenary".
 * Queue for Warfronts as normal and you may be assigned as a Mercenary when the Warfront map loads. You'll receive a Mercenary buff and on-screen callout and will be placed as part of the opposite faction's team.
 * Coin is now granted for completing Warfronts.
 * Damage dealt by your pet is now included in your leaderboard totals.
 * Warfronts: The quests given in Port Scion are now automatically removed when your character leaves the Warfront.
 * Warfront: Stockpile - Black Garden: The leaderboard now displays the number of stones you've carried throughout the game properly.


REALLY IMPORTANT NOTE: The changes below are in addition to the existing Soul and Role system and do not replace the current way Soul specs work - they are intended to make it easier for old and new players alike to become familiar with different potential specs and gameplay they may not have tried before. Think of them like guidelines; those of you more familiar with the Souls and abilities you want to use can continue to customize and swap things in and out at will.

 NEW CHARACTER CREATION UPDATES
 * The Calling selection screen now calls out which roles a Calling is able to potentially fill - Tank, Damage, Healing, Support.
 * After selecting a Calling, characters will be required to choose a "Purpose" (Preset Soul Combination) during character creation.
 * Each Purpose will start out with a preset combination of souls, abilities and equipment. Players will have the opportunity to preview these before the character is created.
 * New players can also preview what their character would look like in a variety of armor ranging from starting gear to epic endgame appearances!
 * If you use the Randomize button after making changes to the character you are creating, there's now a warning prompt before it changes any settings.
 * Updated the character selection screen with faction-sorted and colored Character listings.

USING A PRESET BUILD
 * Players always have the choice to make a custom build, or to play as one of the supplied preset builds.
 * Preset builds will have a fixed progression path which can be previewed when you open the Soul Tree window.
 * Characters with unspent Soul Points who are using preset souls will be guided to purchase specific abilities in the Soul Tree that are appropriate for their level.
 * Players can view additional helpful tips and guides about their Purpose (and other available Purposes) by clicking on the Purpose button in the soul tree.
 * At any time, a new character can spend their Soul Points in a non-highlighted ability or swap out a Soul with 0 points spent to further customize their spec. Doing so will set your Purpose to 'custom' and remove the highlighted progression path.
 * You now have access to all Souls from your Calling at level one, which means experienced players can immediately customize their starting Soul spec if they choose to not use the presets.

SOUL TREE CHANGES - NEW AND EXISTING CHARACTERS
 * When you open the Soul Tree you should see a window that looks pretty familiar!
 * On the Soul Tree UI is a new button showing which Purpose is currently selected - this displays 'Custom' for existing characters with their own specs set up.
 * When viewing a Role that has 0 points spent in Souls, the Purpose button at the top of the UI can be used to view a list of preset Purposes that you can choose from to help set up your character's spec.
 * Purposes are a combination of 3 Souls that have a highlighted ability progression path to suggest where to next spend Soul Points.
 * When checking out Purposes, you'll see a description of what the spec is, some tips, and some important abilities for that particular combination.
 * Selecting a Purpose will slot 3 souls into the Soul Tree UI and start showing the next suggested ability to spend points in. The Preview button at the top of the Soul Tree will place outlines around the abilities the Purpose will ultimately recommend through level 50.
 * AT ANY TIME: A Soul with 0 points spent can be exchanged with any other Soul, just like it works currently.
 * AT ANY TIME: You aren't forced to spent points only where the Purpose is suggesting - you can spend points in a non-highlighted ability and it will set your Purpose to Custom and stop highlighting abilities in the Soul Tree.
 * Existing characters will receive any Souls they may be missing with this update.

ADDITIONAL NEW PLAYER IMPROVEMENTS
 * The number of aggressive monsters in Terminus and Mathosia have been reduced.
 * Monsters in Terminus, Mathosia, Silverwood, and Freemarch have had their agro radius and run speeds adjusted. This will allow players to avoid surprise "Aggro" and flee combat easier when they get in over their heads.
 * The hit points and damage dealt has been reduced on normal mobs from levels 1-17.
 * A number of help tips have been updated to be easier to understand.


 ASCENDED-LY EVER AFTER: IN-GAME WEDDINGS
 * With 1.7 comes the introduction of in-game marriages and instanced wedding gatherings!
 * See the Marriage Coordinators in Meridian or Sanctum to purchase rings you can use to tie the knot with your chosen. Both parties must agree to the marriage and can also choose to dissolve it at will.
 * Marriage Coordinators also sell invitations, costume items, and other goodies for use with the new wedding instances! You can invite friends to join you for your very own wedding ceremony and resulting party. Using the wedding instances is not required for marrying another character.
 * For detailed instructions on in-game marriage and what you can do with the wedding instances, see the Wedding Planner book also available through the Marriage Coordinator.
 * As a note of caution, Dwarven weddings can get pretty rowdy! You may see your PvP flag turn on when entering the Dwarf-themed wedding instance.
 * Being married in RIFT is meant to be an expression of partnership, and does not provide any additional gameplay benefit. You can see who a character is married to by inspecting them, but that's it!
 * Interested in participating in a Valentine's Day world-record-setting event for the most marriages during a 24-hour period? See details on the blog at: http://community.riftgame.com/en/201...alentines-day
 * Added an option to automatically decline all marriage proposals under Misc options.


GENERAL
 * A sixth role is now available for purchase!
 * You know all those times you hit 'Leave Party' instead of 'Ready Check'? Yeah, Leave Party got moved down to the bottom of the menu list.
 * Increased the available Wardrobe slots to 5.
 * Wardrobe slots now have toggles for armor visibility in that slot.
 * Conversely, removed the Options entries for hide helmet and hide shoulderpads - if you currently have these enabled, your wardrobe slots will default to hiding these armor pieces.
 * Newly acquired Abilities will now be displayed in a special pop-up UI window at the time they are learned, making it easy to drag new abilities directly to your hotbar – or cancel them from the list if you don't want to place them at that time.
 * Added a new 'Lock XP' checkbox to the Interface > Misc settings pane. Checking it will stop your level 1-49 character from gaining experience until it is unchecked. Characters at the level cap and trial characters cannot lock their experience.
 * You can now choose to disable auto-weapon-sheathing with a new Settings option: Interface > Misc > Disable Auto Sheaths.
 * You can now use the command '/interact' to interact with an NPC you have targeted if you are unable to right-click it.
 * The maximum water depth that you can ride your mount in has been increased and made consistent across all player races. Female Dwarves should notice the biggest overall boost, while Bahmi males should see only a slight difference.
 * Doubled the duration and removed the 2 minute cooldown on Omen Sight and Quantum Sight.
 * The background color of target casting bars now correctly indicates their interruptible (blue) or non-interruptible (gold) status during cast time for channeled abilities.

 * Added Exceptional Augment Boxes that contain Epic Augments to the Crafting Specialty Goods merchants.


RIFTS AND INVASIONS
 * Zone Events on Ember Isle now also grant Inscribed Sourcestone when event objectives are completed. Only players who have contributed during each event objective will receive these rewards. Some of the less difficult objectives will not be awarding Sourcestone. In order to maintain the same overall total Inscribed Sourcestone granted, the amount obtained from Colossi kills has been reduced.
 * Rift-type content now takes gear into consideration when scaling, and will be slightly more difficult in the presence of highly geared characters.
 * 'Puresource' type reward containers now stack to 99.

 * Mage and Cleric abilities that are low-ranked compared to your level now always use the ability cost of one rank below the max currently available to you. This won't change costs for characters who've trained up their abilities to current rank as they level.

 * Fixed an issue causing some abilities that increase outgoing damage to combine with each other incorrectly.

DUNGEONS, SLIVERS, CHRONICLES, RAIDS

a me stamattina è arrivata una mail con tutti i cambiamenti che apportano al PvP.
se riescono a migliorarlo (come spero) sarà la svolta definitiva e parecchia gente ritornerà dopo la grande delusione di swtor e la noia assoluta di wow.

Ho appena visto l'annuncio sul forum ufficiale, caricano la patch 1.7 sui server americani giovedi' 2 febbraio, se fanno come le altre volte a noi tocchera' il caricamento nella notte a meno che non vengano fuori problemi che li costringano a rimandare.

Appena ci sono le patch notes definitive vedo di caricarle... questo aggiornamento probabilmente e' il piu' atteso da parecchio tempo visto tutti i cambiamenti che porta soprattutto al PVP e dovrebbe essere una preparazione ad un altro aggiornamento corposo che presumibilmente arrivera' con il primo compleanno di rift all'inizio di Marzo.
