La 1.4 e' arrivata

[Shili]

Fica.... peccato che i Defiant hanno deciso de completà qualunque tipo di implementazione tutta oggi, visto che stanno ovunque, girano a raid interi, e smaciullano pure i muri.

[PaolOh]

Lol.. meglio metterla in scaricamento subito

Ci vorra' una settimana per capire tutto quello che hanno cambiato :d

[PaolOh]

Se stasera riusciamo a organizzare un raid da 10 possiamo far entrare un rogue nelle instance.. per il resto si aspetta che si calmino o ci si organizza... comunque se l'andazzo e' questo la vedo dura per i pvp rift

[Ayaname]

Mamma mia un giga di patch!

[Ashzara]

in questo fine settimana sara un po dura riuscire a fare un raid, noi 5 in particolare non saremo presenti xke andiamo a morire al paintball :|

[Shili]

At this point we are tentatively scheduling 1.4 to go to EU shards at 1:00am GMT 5/8/11.

The current state of the NA shards will be monitored overnight but a longer-term fix to the shard stability issues seen today is still in the works, and continued stability issues may impact the deployment of the EU update tomorrow.

Either way, I'll see you tomorrow with the latest on EU 1.4 update time!

[Shili]

Altra piccola aggiunta alla Patch Notes:

A couple of patch note corrections to the above (Cabalist typoes and Druid/Inquisitor changes that were changed again on PTS prior to 1.4 release):

CABALIST
* Affinity for Death: Now reduces the cooldown of all abilities that consume Decay by 6-30 seconds.
* Symbol of the Ancient: Now increases the Spell Power bonus of Shadow's Touch, Dark Water, Distorted Shadows, Curse of Discord, and Bound Fate by 2% + 2.5% per point spent in Cabalist above 36.

DRUID
* Thorns of Asphodel - New Ability: Available at 51 points. Causes your pets to deal additional Life damage with their attacks.

INQUISITOR
* Harsh Focus was removed and replaced with Persistence prior to the release of 1.4 and the leftover patch note was in the live list.




Ma ora che ci penso, solitamente non buttavano giù verso le 18.00 per uppare le patch?

[Shili]

ma che palle dio caro

[PaolOh]

Per problemi i stabilita' riscontrati sui server stranieri la patch e' stata sospesa in attesa di soluzioni, probabilmente e' solo rimandata a domani.

[PaolOh]

I problemi non sono niente di che.. solo che c'era la possibilita' di crashare il server durante il combattimento con uno dei boss di hammerknell e c'era un software di report bancario americano che mandava in crash il client se installato.

RIFT 1.4 Hotfix #1 - 11:30pm PDT 8/3/11 [NA]
GENERAL
 * The Guild Bank no longer eats split item stacks and should be re-enabled after this update.
 * Waves of Madness Phase 5 quest items no longer clutter up players' inventory after the quests have been auto-completed.
 * Fixed the Waves of Madness event items on the World Event merchant appearing locked from purchase.
 * Hammerknell: Fixed a potential crash issue during the Murdantix encounter.
 * An issue with Burning Powerstones has been resolved and these should be re-enabled after this update.
 * PvP: Marks of Retribution can now be purchased from all merchants that sell rank set gear in Meridian and Sanctum.
 * Cleaned up some edge cases where several Water Saga quests could become stuck and keep players from progressing.


If you have Trusteer Rapport installed please make sure to update to the latest version to avoid a crash issue when launching RIFT. You can download the latest version of Rapport from the following links:
 Windows 32-bit users: http://download.trusteer.com/Gcur4Wtnu/RapportSetup.exe
 Windows 64-bit users: http://download.trusteer.com/NkuiAcr...p-Full_x64.exe
 * Note: Trion Worlds is not a representative of or affiliated with Trusteer, this is a notice to customers experiencing a conflict between the RIFT client and a previous version of the Trusteer Rapport software.

Tutto sommato hanno risolto i problemi al volo ma hanno rinviato la patch da noi per testarli "live" sui server americani.

In questo modo con una sessione intensiva di chiusure rift finita alle 5 Juky e' riuscito a ottenere l'achivement dei 3K di monetine per l'evento

RIFT 1.4 - 8:00am PDT 8/3/11 [NA] - 1:00am GMT 4/08/11 [EU]

    RIFT 1.4 - 8/3/11

    == FEATURED ITEMS ==
    * A new type of Rift - PvP Rifts - can now be opened at Raid Tear locations with a special Ascended Power. See below under PvP Rifts for details.
    * The first Alternate Warfront, for Whitefall Steppes, will now appear on weekends and grant double awards when active!
    * The Looking for Group tool goes cross-shard with the other shards in your wargroup; look below under CROSS-SHARD LOOKING FOR GROUP for more info.
    * A new epic questline for higher level characters solo or in small groups is now available: The Water Saga!
    * The new 10-person Sliver, Drowned Halls, makes an appearance in Scarwood Reach. See below under DROWNED HALLS - NEW SLIVER.
    * The quest journal system has some shiny new updates; see QUEST SYSTEM below for specifics.
    * Many, many more improvements below!


    PVP RIFTS - NEW
    * The armies of the Ascended can now open special PvP rifts at Rift Raid locations. Opening these rifts secures sourcestone for your faction, but also leaves you open to attack from enemies! Keep the rift open as long as you can to gain the most rewards - or close your enemy's rift for additional bonuses!
    * See Girdoom in Meridian and Templar Zin in Sanctum to obtain the Ascended Powers needed to open these new Rifts, purchased with Favor (Lure of the Unseen and Lure of the Eye).
    * PvP Rifts can be opened at Raid Tears in Shimmersand, Iron Pine Peak, and Stillmoor. Only one per zone can be opened at any time, for a total of three active PvP Rifts at a time.
    * Contribution to objectives or to PvP activity in the region of the opened Rifts triggers rewards.
    * PvP Rift activity will be broadcast in the new World Defense chat channel.


    ALTERNATE WARFRONT: WHITEFALL STEPPES - NEW
    Whitefall Steppes - Escalation
    * In their fight for dominance, the Guardians and Defiants have deployed massive rune cannons to the Whitefall Steppes. Their Ascended armies battle to collect and return Soucestone to fuel these powerful weapons.
    * Capture three Sourcestone from the field and hold them at your base to win. Beware though; Sourcestone can be stolen directly from your base by the enemy.
    * Alternate-mode Warfronts appear on weekends and are highlighted in the Warfront queue UI when available. These Warfronts grant double awards while available.
    * Daily quests for the standard version of Whitefall Steppes can still be completed in the Alternate Mode.
    * Achievements related to Whitefall Steppes must still be done in the standard version.


    CROSS-SHARD LOOKING FOR GROUP
    * The Looking for Group tool now includes queues from the other shards within your battlegroup when forming instance groups.
    * Cross-shard players are indicated the same way as in Warfronts - Name@Shard.
    * Cross-shard groups cannot contain more than 5 characters but can still be 'converted to a raid' for the UI change.
    * The ability to ignore players cross-shard is currently being worked on.
    * You cannot trade items or coin to players from another shard. This includes Bind on Pickup items under the 30 minute trade window after looting.


    WATER SAGA STORY QUESTLINE - NEW
    * After the appearance of Akylios, Guardians take a trip through madness while Defiants learn the story of the Faceless Man and help determine his future. The Abyssal have a hand in all of it.
    * The Water Saga is intended for higher-level characters in solo and small groups. You don't need to raid to complete it though you may need to bring some friends for some portions.
    * Start the story after completing either Standard or Expert Abyssal Precipice. Defiants speak to Faceless Man inside the Abyssal Precipice instance itself, while Guardians need to see Cardinal Visc in Sanctum after completing the instance once. Pre-1.4 completions of Abyssal Precipice DO count!
    * New item rewards are available while completing the questline, and rumor has it that finishing the series grants the player a sweet new mount type. CROCNARD!


    DROWNED HALLS - NEW SLIVER
    * A new Sliver location has been reported to be intersecting with present-day Telara in the region of Lord's Hall in Scarwood Reach.
    * High Priestess Hydriss attempts to break through from a twisted reality, bringing her Abyssal army to claim the Ascended's Telara for Akylios. Enter the Sliver to fight her back on her own turf before she can bring her future into ours!
    * Drowned Halls is positioned as an entry-level 10-person raid instance, with unique new loot to help gear for more difficult challenges.
    * Several new costume items can be obtained from the Drowned Halls sliver and Achievements.


    QUEST SYSTEM
    * Repeatable quests (daily, weekly, etc) no longer count against the 25-quest limit in the quest log.
    * Collected quest items that are placed in your bank now count toward the total required for the quest and will be withdrawn when the quest is turned in.
    * All characters now have a 'quest bag' attached to their quest log which holds items that are either gained during or required for quests the character is currently on.
    * Looted quest items will automatically go into this new quest bag.

    * Removed Runeguard notoriety awards from Matron Zamira minions.

    Murdantix:

    Vladmal Prime:
    * Vladmal Prime will no longer cast Asphyxiating Smoke at his primary target.
    * Boundless Tunnelers will spawn faster throughout the encounter, and no longer have decreased movement speed.
    * Boundless Delvers will spawn a bit slower throughout the encounter.

    Rune King Molinar:
    * Prince Dollin will begin to cast Terminate Life earlier in the encounter.
    * Incorporeal Revenants will deal less damage than they previously did after becoming Corporeal.
    * The projectile portion of Cursed Blows now deals Death damage rather than Physical.
    * Both Rune King Molinar and Prince Dollin have reduced health.
    * Prince Dollin's Rend Life is no longer resistable.

    GENERAL
    * Bind on Pickup items can now be traded to other eligible characters within 30 minutes of looting the item.
    * New items added to your bags (from looting, trading, etc.) are now highlighted in the bag UI the first time they are seen. Once you close the bag for the first time after obtaining a new item, the highlight is removed.
    * Souls are now available from your friendly neighborhood Calling trainer. Removed the Soul Quests, although players who currently have these quests will be able to turn them in normally.
    * Added a World Defense chat channel to help with coordination of world pvp activity. Characters must be Level 50 and Prestige rank 2 to use this channel; you will be automatically added if you have an open channel slot. If you elect to leave this channel, you will not be automatically returned to it later - eligible characters can join at any time using /join World Defense.
    * Using the F1 through F5 keys to target party members in Raids should work more consistently and intuitively.
    * Receiving tells while at a loading screen now actually shows you who the tell came from.
    * New transplanar Synergy Crystals have been added to the Rift faction vendors in Sanctum and Meridian. These work with the existing transplanar armor available from Rare Rift Goods vendors in Stillmoor, Shimmersand, and Iron Pine Peak.
    * Aspect of the Ancients is no longer usable while you have full Planar Charges (which would end up just wasting it).
    * The character window stat page now highlights stats that are important for your calling, with tooltip goodness.


    LOOKING FOR GROUP
    * You can now jump into Warfronts while remaining in the LFG queue and will still receive LFG queue popups.
    * LFG group leaders who previously dismissed the offer to seek a replacement member can now trigger it by opening the LFG UI while in the dungeon.
    * LFG characters who die in an instance while linkdead no longer have to run across the world to get to their gravestone.


    GUILDS
    * Guild Master NPCs (the ones who sell guild charters in Sanctum and Meridian) now provide an additional service: resetting spent Active or Passive guild perk points for a fee.
    * You can now split item stacks, preview items, and link items from within the Guild Bank.
    * Some guild quests have been rehauled for better functionality - you'll notice changes in some Dungeon and PvP guild quests.

    GUILD PERKS
    * Cache Finder now offers a 15-45% chance to gain an additional Plaque or Mark when defeating an Expert Dungeon or Raid Boss.


    RIFTS AND INVASIONS
    * Rift consumables now drop in only three ranks rather than five. The first comes from Rift content from levels 1-29, and the other two drop from level 30+ content and are based on player level. Characters of level 30-39 receive the second rank of consumables, and 40-50 receive the third.
    * Puresource containers have also been changed so that Rift and Invasion content drops higher level versions as you gain levels relative to the content.

    COMBAT
    * Taking certain actions on the Pet Bar - changing pet aggro status, toggling abilities to use - no longer dismounts you.
    * Fixed a bug causing pets to sometimes lose passive effects.
    * Fixed synergy crystals sometimes not applying their bonuses when switching roles after they were equipped.
    * Fixed an incorrect calculation of weapon damage when swapping weapons to a different hand.
    * Corrected some ability and effect tooltips where they displayed an incorrect value for a percent of health healed.

    COMBAT – ITEM PROC RATES
    * Item with proc effects (% chance of X on Y) will now be normalized so that the results of an item proc are more consistent regardless of the ability speed or number of targets it hits.
    - Abilities that hit multiple targets will trigger procs less than abilities that hit single targets.
    - Abilities with longer casting times will trigger procs more often than abilities that are quick to cast.
    * Additionally, we've made a pass on the trigger events for procs themselves to make them more consistent across different items.


    SOULS
    * Calling abilities are now categorized in the ability panel and sorted alphabetically.

    CLERIC
    Addressing issues with Cleric damage Souls to bring them more in line with the other callings.

    CABALIST
    * The goal of the below Cabalist changes were to make this soul far less confusing in general, reduce the awkwardness of using Sigils, tone down the long and complex rotations, and combine the AE abilities in a way that can use a single, understandable rotation.
    * Decay: Renamed Lurking Decay. This is now a buff that automatically generates one stack of Decay every 2 seconds.

Now lasts 20 seconds and does not have to be kept up as often, freeing the Warlord to use other finishers. Also now has a 3 second internal cooldown to better equalize Dual Wielding and Two-Handed weapons, or long-cast-time abilities. Due to the increased effect frequency, it is now an added attack rather than a damage value bonus. Damage increased significantly to keep the new version in line with its previous DPS boost.

    * Iron Pine Mélange is now available for purchase from, where else - Iron Pine merchants!
    * The quest flow in Dayblind Hollows has been completely revised. The content of the quests remains unchanged, but the number of trips into this area has been reduced from five to two. The respawn time of creatures in this scene has been increased.
