1.7 Hotfix #6 - Patch Notes

RIFT 1.7 Hotfix #6 - 8:00am PST 2/29/12 [NA] - 2:00am GMT 29/2/12 [EU]

GENERAL

  • Ember Isle can no longer be accessed by characters under level 48. Characters currently in Ember Isle below this level will be teleported back to their home city.
  • Updated the way Rifts and Invasions track contribution so you should be more reliably rewarded for participating.
  • A number of random Bind On Equip Rift drops that incorrectly had no level requirements to equip now actually do.
  • Various fixes to Vote Kick while in a raid-converted group in LFG or Instant Adventure.
  • Using /target with a partial name now prefers to select living targets over dead ones.
  • Instant Adventure: Jerra Loves Hillsborough: This adventure should no longer fail to complete when you kill Androj too quickly.
  • Guardian wedding instance is now accessible by RIFT Lite accounts.
  • Gold Wedding Rings are now able to be equipped by RIFT Lite players.

WORLD EVENT

  • Piñatas that drop Hammerknell artifacts now drop a more appropriate amount of them - not multiples of the same item.
  • Fixed a bug allowing characters to receive too many beads from grey-con Piñatas.
  • Made some small tweaks to Piñata loot to balance out the relative frequency of 'bonus' drops.

Continue after the jump for the rest of the patch notes.


ZONES, DUNGEONS, RAIDS

  • Zone Events in Ember Isle, Stillmoor, Shimmersand, and Iron Pine Peak are now aware of each other, and only one high-level zone event will be active at a time.
  • PvP Quests obtained and completed within Port Scion as a Mercenary will once again grant Notoriety rewards.
  • Caduceus Rise [Master]: The damage of the general population's Furious Shout has been reduced.
  • Ember Isle: There are now 'breadcrumb' quests in Sanctum and Meridian to point players toward Ember Isle at level 50.
  • Fall of Lantern Hook [Expert]: Maelforge is back to looking like his old self again.
  • Hammerknell: Akylios: Tidal waves during the later phases of the encounter no longer knock players back.
  • Hammerknell: Akylios: Added on-screen text warnings to Akylios' breath attacks.
  • Hammerknell: Akylios: The damage over time component of Mind Decay now ticks half as quickly as it previosly did.
