The fourth, and possibly final round of Bullroarer testing for Update 13 has arrived, with some more changes and fixes for you to peruse. As always I will note a few of the more interesting ones below:
- (BR)Lootboxes rewards from metadeed completions will also come with an unbound key
- additionally, item rewards from deed completions will go into your pending loot if your inventory is full, and do not count towards the maximum size
- (BR)The XP reward from opening Hobbit Presents has been removed due to player feedback
- The physical and tactical mitigation cap for Heavy Armour classes has been reduced from 70% to 60%
- Package items can now be deleted without having to open them
- Heritage runes now stack to 200.
Subject to change and all that jazz.
As someone whose main is a red-line-traited Champion, the best one for me is this one right here: Blood Rage and Continuous Blood Rage now remove disarm effects and Continuous Blood Rage now provides immuntiy to disarm effects for its entire duration.
Hmmm… as a yellow-line Champ I’ll have to look as to whether I can get a disarm removal as well…
From the prelim release notes:
“Epic Rings, Bracelets, and Earrings will now have a chance of being awarded for Platinum rewards. For U13, Epic Pocket Items and Necklaces will no longer be awarded.”
Having the epic rewards on a cycle or rotation is an interesting strategy. As these pieces of gear were the one of the sole reasons to do epic battles in the first place, it has led to some increased calls in glff for HD battles – it seems everyone wants the pocket before they go out of circulation.
With 4 potential gold bling drops and the chance of a 1st age symbol? Epic Battles will be very popular on the 14th (to go along with T3 skraids)
