Another round of hotfixes.

By making changes to the mouse selection and targeting systems, players will find clicking on UI elements to be more responsive, and mouse targeting will be more accurate. This is another step in what will continue to be a ongoing process by Mythic to improve these parts of the game:

• Increased pixel allowance for mouse movement to be more forgivable when targeting.
• Improvements to mouse clicking that will make the UI respond faster when clicking.

I don't know exactly what that means, but it sounds good!  See the full notes after the jump.

Greetings!

We have the following Hot Fixes for you today:

User Interface

• Since we launched we have made a number of improvements to both UI responsiveness and casting lag.  During our continued investigations into this issue, we found that we could improve both mouse targeting and UI-clicking, especially in situations that stress the game client, such as large open RvR battles. By making changes to the mouse selection and targeting systems, players will find clicking on UI elements to be more responsive, and mouse targeting will be more accurate. This is another step in what will continue to be a ongoing process by Mythic to improve these parts of the game:
  
  
  • Increased pixel allowance for mouse movement to be more forgivable when targeting.
  • Improvements to mouse clicking that will make the UI respond faster when clicking.
• Fixed an issue where the F-keys were not properly targeting groupmates while in a warband.
• Camera zoom will now retain its setting through death, zoning, and logout.

Capital Cities

• Additional mount NPCs have been added near the Altdorf and The Inevitable City mount vendors. Now players can get a good look at the various types of mounts available for purchase.

Combat and Careers

Shadow Warrior

• Keen Arrowheads: This Tactic will once again extend the duration of Takedown’s snare.

Content

• Fixed an issue that was negatively affecting client performance in the Chaos Wastes.

Items

• Rod of Service: The Apprenticeship ability now has a range of 100 feet, will only work on players that the user is grouped with and will work properly with the bolster buff gained from Scenarios and Open RvR.
• Collar of Servitude: The Indenture ability now has a range of 100 feet, will only work on players that the user is grouped with and will work properly with the bolster buff gained from Scenarios and Open RvR.
