Dark Age of Camelot
Test Version 1.82a Release Notes
Class Changes and Cross Cluster Guilds and Alliances
January 17, 2006
===================================
NEW THINGS AND BUG FIXES
- Reactionary combat styles now provide a 3 second window in which the player may use the style. When a reactionary style is available for use (such as after you block your target and you wish to use a block reactionary style), the reactionary style will register as valid and trigger as long as you use it within 3 seconds. In general, this will make it much easier to successfully perform reactionary styles against enemy targets.
- With this version, cross server guilds and alliances can now be formed. Guilds created now have a "Home" server which matches the initial leader of the guild's home server. Players from other servers will now be able to join, and alliances and enemy guilds from other servers are possible. When necessary, the <guildname>-<servername> format will be usable, similar to dealing with matching player names.
- It is now possible to add a guild or player from another server to your house's access permission list. Players and guilds will still only be able to claim homes on their home server.
- The restrictions on /bg grantcredit where a player less than master level 2 couldn't be granted credit for trial 5, a player less than master level 4 couldn't be granted credit for trial 7, 9 for 9, and 10 for 10, have been removed.
- /gc note now gives the player feedback on where it's trying to write a note to, and will prompt the note writer if the target of the note is unclear.
- A /worship emote has been added. (Test note: This animation may not currently work in all clients. It will work in all clients by the time 1.82 goes live.)
Art Changes and Fixes
- We have fixed an issue where most of the male Valkyn eye color options would show up green.
CLASS CHANGES AND FIXES
- The following Shield styles have a new animation: Shield Swipe, Mangle and Numb.
- The Sledgehammer Hammer Style has a new animation.
- The Arctic Rift Axe Style has a new animation.
- Spiritmaster pets have received a graphic upgrade. This upgrade is only viewable in Catacombs and Darkness Rising clients.
CAMELOT CLASSIC WORLD NOTES
General World Notes
- Infernal powers have created a rift into each Realm's homelands. These breaches appear to connect to previously unknown portions of Darkness Falls. These uncharted caverns are rife with demons and undead adventurers from times past. Designed for characters level 1-4 and 5-9, these new dungeons allow new characters to be introduced to RVR combat in a dungeon environment, as well as provide an alternate leveling locale. Within each realm's portion of the dungeon, there is also a portal to the appropriate level battleground so that players can try out either form of RVR easily without much travel or hardships. Tomorrow's Realm Champions have to start somewhere.
- A small number of monsters have been made uncharmable to prevent abuse.
- King Constantine, enamored by the warmth of his citizens upon his return, has begun renovations of Cotswold. The layout in Cotswold has been changed to include the addition of new buildings.

- King Eirik, enamored by the warmth of his citizens upon his return, has begun renovations of Mularn. The layout in Mularn has been changed to include the addition of new buildings.
