Update 14 Bullroarer Build 3 Notes

The third build of testing for Update 14 has arrived, with a new set of patch notes. There aren’t too many listed this time, so I will paste them below for your perusal:

Release Notes

General

• Crippled effect, usually put on the player by wolves, has been converted to a true wounding effect. Along with decreasing your run speed, it now also decreases might and expires out of combat. Wound healing potions will now cure it, regardless of how many of these effects are stacked on the player.
• Bull Roarer Only:Resolved issue with Weapon Master where the dual-wield effect was disappearing from players if they switched what type of weapon they were dual wielding.
• Over-time effects applied by always-crit skills no longer always crit on each pulse.
• Retreating from an interior space should now bring you to the proper defeat circle.

Classes

Champion

• Resolved issue with the effect of Champion’s Advantage only counting towards the first hit of a Blade skill when it was intended to be all hits.

Hunter

• Resolved an issue with Erebor Huntsman 2 piece set bonus not properly applying to Improved Fleetness.

Rune Keeper

• Do Not Fall this Day skill can now work on players not in the runekeeper’s fellowship.
• Fixed a bug with Frost Armour that was giving a reduced amount of incoming damage if the player already had reduced incoming damage. It should now apply the proper -10% incoming damage to any target.
• [Bullroarer Only] Updated the Scathing Retort tooltip to properly reflect the trait now.
• Hastened Determination should now lower the cooldown of Self Motivation instead of increase it.
• Branded Marks was intended to have only one rank. It does now.

Warden

• Fixed the tool-tip for the Agility stat as it did not include the fact that Agility also increases Tactical Mastery.

Monsterplay

• Resolved issue that was Guardian’s Fearless 4 set piece bonus to not properly disarm creeps.
• Fixed a bug that was allowing the free People to use the Blood of The Fair Folk potions.
• Resolved an issue that was making some mounts appear to be useable in the Delving of Fror, even though they were not.
