Test Version 1.71g on Pendragon
1.71g Pendragon patch notes from the Herald
- NEW THINGS AND BUG FIXES
- Players gaining free levels will now also be awarded an amount of gold dependent upon the level the player has progressed to.
- We have addressed several issues that could cause players to go linkdead or have unusually high amounts of network lag around the following Trials of Atlantis encounters: Tartaros Gift, Dreamsphere, Kirkleis (ML 1.6), and Flames (ML 6.5 Solo Step).
-
New Bonuses
To assist low population servers and realms, we are providing additional bonuses for PvE and RvR combat.
- Evenly distributed and underpopulated realms will now receive bonus experience, realm points, bounty points, and coin for fighting enemy players in the Frontiers. Underpopulated realms will receive greater bonuses than realms whose populations are more evenly distributed on a given server.
- All realms will also receive additional camp bonuses, meaning more experience per monster kill. Underpopulated realms will receive a greater camp bonus than realms whose populations are more evenly distributed on a given server.
- The experience earned from the additional camp bonus and bonus experience from player kills also applies towards earning artifact experience.
MASTER LEVEL AND ARTIFACT ADJUSTMENTS
Oceanus Encounters
- Due to player feedback, we have placed a djinn stone back in Mesothalassa, outside of the Cetus' Pit zone entrance. Players will now have two options of leaving the Cetus' Pit area, either by using the djinn stone inside the Cetus' Pit, or by using the djinn stone outside of the Cetus' Pit in Mesothalassa. Please note that the djinn stone in Mesothalassa is in a different location than the previous stone. The new djinn stone is closer to the cave entrance leading to the Cetus' Pit.
Stygia Encounters
- A Glyph Incised Chest has been found among the rocks outside of the Fortress of Storms. There is a rumor that the chest belongs to Seti the Pharaoh and that only his keys can open it.
Sobekite Eternal
- Trial 2.7 - The sobekite guards in front of the Cellar Gate, leading to Djedkare's chambers, have been removed. This change will allow easier access to this area for solo players who wish to attempt Djedkare's solo encounter.
- Trial 2.8 - The sobekite guards in front of the South Hall Gate, leading to Amenemhat's encounter room, have been removed. This change will allow easier access to this area for solo players who wish to attempt this encounter.

Volcanus Encounters
- Trial 6.10 - The levels and defensive abilities of the elite taur defenders have been decreased.

Artifact Adjustments
- Artifacts which previously earned experience only from player kills will no longer level at an accelerated rate. This change was made because these artifacts have been changed to use one of the six new leveling requirements, allowing players more options to earn experience for these artifacts. The artifacts affected are: the Band of Stars, Battler, the Ceremonial Bracers, the Crown of Zahur, the Fool's Bow, Scepter of the Meritorious, Snatcher, and Tartaros Gift.
- Necromancers may no longer use the Wand of Lightning summoned by the Stone of Atlantis artifact while in shadeform, however, they can now use the Rod of Magic while in shadeform.
- (Pendragon Only) The Staff of the God and Tartaros Gift will now level in the outdoor mainland zones instead of the mainland dungeon zones.
