Here is the patch message from today:



June 6, 2007
_____________________

*** Highlights ***

- Have you ever been to an SOE Fan Faire? Have you ever been to Las Vegas? Now's the time to think about doing both at the same time! August 2nd - 5th SOE is holding its 2007 Fan Faire at the Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas Nevada! Visit the official SOE Fan Faire website at http://events.station.sony.com/fanfaire/ for more information about other activities.

- So you want to see more events? Ever try running your own? Visit the EQplayers website to view the Tip of the Week on running Player-Run Events in EverQuest.


*** Spells ***

- The mana cost incurred by fizzling now includes focus effect and specialization savings, reducing the amount of mana that is used on a fizzle.
- The bard fizzle cap has been increased from 95% to 100%.
- The bard command '/melody' has been changed to now attempt to re-sing a song that misses a note, resuming the melody chain once it's successfully done so.
- Specialized bard songs (mez, charm, stun, etc.) will now have a 2% fizzle rate, given max skill and level-appropriate stats.
- General purpose bard songs (regen, haste, speed, etc.) will now have a 0% fizzle rate given max skill and level-appropriate stats.

Testing I found that aoe regen and grp regen bard songs now dont fizzle. That is what they said and it is true.
However:
When I mix in Niv's, a lvl 58 AC-only song, it does still fizzle even though it is one of those utility songs. Not only that, I have MOTP3 which is supposed to make any song below 59 not fizzle in the first place. How come I get fizzles on lvl 58 utility songs?
People in charge of Fixes dont have a clue

People in charge of Fixes dont have a clue. Ghost should of been a High Priority.

Soulations
1.Fix the spell
2.Unlink Ghost from the Flaged mob so we can ingore it like the fix team is.
3. Allow Pentions to add GHOST Kills to a raid when they try and task drops so the raid can move on when they get the task again.
4. Fix the spell.
5. Put in an Alt quest that bypass this zone for flaging that will allow the raid to zone into DK for the back flag drops.
Bards song changes
