The craftable LW sounds interesting, but moving the docks I think is ridiculous. Traffic over bridges is where a lot of fights happen. The main reason I don't go to hibland is because their docks are on the island, now they are doing it to all 3 realms :/
And the new 45-49 Battleground is apparently like old Emain:

Here's the next batch of 1.84, now in testing.

Dark Age of Camelot
Test Version 1.84c Release Notes

===================================
NEW THINGS AND BUG FIXES
New Battleground
- A new battleground, Cathal Valley, has been introduced in this version. This is a new battleground for players who are levels 45 - 49. Cathal Valley is a brand new type of 'open field' battleground, empty of keeps and towers. The Realm Rank cap is 4L9 and the Master Level cap is ML5.
- (Pendragon Only) To facilitate testing, temporary NPC teleporters have added to the capital cities and primary border keeps in order to allow any player on Pendragon (from level 44 to level 50) to enter the new battleground, Cathal Valley.
Guild Command Additions and Changes
- The commands '/gc demote' and '/gc promote' now work on offline characters.
- A new command, '/gc removeaccount', has been added, which removes all character's associated with the same account as the target character from a player guild.
Help Window Update
- Added additional information for upgrading or downgrading player houses.
Bug Fixes
- (Pendragon Only) Players will no longer be unable to cast for extended periods of time due to being interrupted.
- The command /housefriend may now be used to add guilds whose names are comprised of a single word.
- The command '/gc buff' will now display current guild buff information to guild members on any server within a cluster.
- Guard spam will now display to guild members on any server within a cluster.
- Bonus experience messages will now display to guild members on any server within a cluster.
- The command '/housefriend account' will now allow access to characters which are based on any server within a cluster.
- Previously, if the group leader was out of range of a PvP kill on normal servers, only the group leader would receive gold. This has been fixed. If a group leader is now out of range of a PvP kill, the group leader will not receive gold, and any group members who are within range of the PvP kill will receive gold.
- The '/housefriend rank (rank)' command, which adds a particular rank of the guild associated with a house as a housefriend, previously required the rank to be specified as the string name of the guild rank. It will now accept either the string name or the numeric rank identifier (0-9), so '/housefriend rank 0' will add rank 0 of the guild as a housefriend. The resulting successful display message from '/housefriend rank (rank)' will now display the rank number in addition to the rank name.
- Previously, when some casters trained in certain spell lines, the caster would receive messages stating "You learn the XXX spell ability" with XXX being incorrect. This has been fixed.
CLASS CHANGES AND FIXES
General Class Notes
- The Bleed effect from Dual Shadows will no longer be resisted. This applies to both PvP and PvE servers.
Friar
- The heal associated with Holy Staff will now correctly fade after 10 seconds.
Valkyrie
- The Odin's Retribution line can now be cast while in combat.
- The heal over time spells can now be cast while in combat.
- The point blank area of effect heal spell now works correctly.
Thane
- Baldur's Fury now correctly links off of Assault.
Valewalker
- Scythe Styles have been re-organized in the following manner:
Parry -> Sawgrass -> Thorny Shield
Evade -> Arboreal Fire -> Flaming Scythe
side -> Stunning Blade -> Blizzard Blade
Rear- > Foxfire -> Winter's Scythe
Frontal-> Grasping roots -> Conflagration
- Arboreal Shield is now available at Spec 21 in Scythe.
- Grasping Roots is now available at Spec 34 in Scythe and has a 10 second PBAE Root.
- Conflagration now procs a 150 DD spell.
- Foxfire is now a Rear positional Style.
- Grasping Roots is now a Frontal positional Style.
TRADESKILL NOTES
General Changes and Fixes
- The damage bonus on Legendary Weapons will now work on any target except other players.
Alchemy
- The recipes for complex potions have been flattened so that crafted potions are no longer required as ingredients to make the final potion. Instead, you will only need a portion of the materials that were used for the ingredient potions. For example: Elixir of Might required both an Elixir of Strength and an Elixir of Constitution, along with ancient treant wood. You will now only need heated, dusty, and vapor distills and ancient treant wood to make the potion.
- The recipes for the weariness and lethargy poisons have also been flattened so that crafted potions are no longer required as ingredients to make the poison.
Armorcrafting
- (Pendragon Only) We have reverted the 1.84a change that removed the boned, svarskodd, nadurtha, and daingean legs, vest, arms, helm, gauntlet, and boot recipes from Armorcrafting lists.
Basic Crafting
- Spellcrafting and Alchemy have been added to Basic Crafting for all realms.
Spellcrafting
- All newly crafted staves have "50 Focus All" (on any newly created staff at any level) in the fifth slot. This allows the staves to be spell crafted in the other 4 slots and have the Focus bonus at no additional imbue cost. It should be noted that this focus bonus applies to all levels of all crafted staves.
- All Legendary Weapons now have the first 3 slots open for spell crafting. This will not retro-actively apply to already created Legendary weapons. Only newly created Legendary Weapons will have the first 3 slots open.
Tailoring
- (Pendragon Only) We have reverted the 1.84a change that removed the boned legs, vest, arms, helm, gauntlet, and boot recipes from Albion tailoring.
NEW FRONTIERS WORLD NOTES
- The docks at Caer Benowyc and Bledmeer Faste have been moved. They are now on the island with the keeps themselves. Boat paths, NPCs, maps, and the like have been adjusted to accommodate the new dock locations.

- New wieldable roleplay items have been added to the roleplay clothing merchants in each realm. The items are: scroll, key, rolling pin and quill.

The delve information for this item is: This item can only be used in the housing zones and can't be used within 512 units of monsters or NPCs in the game. To use the item, drop it on the ground. It will last 30 minutes and cannot be picked up.
- Fixed spelling error on tickets/boats for Prydwen Keep and Prydwen Keep Bridge routes.
- The majority of monsters have now been given ROG treasure in addition to their existing treasure. (However, animals, plants, insects and reptiles will still not drop ROG items.)
Monster Notes - Albion
- Fixed spelling error on Prydwen Keep Bridge Dockmaster.
- Adjusted one of the "witherwood" spawns in Avalon Marsh so they spawn in the water rather than above it.

Quests - Aerus
- Enyalio's Boots: The chest that used to spawn Enaylio's Boots has been turned off as the item is no longer required to activate the artifact. The mechanism for encounter credit has not been changed.
CATACOMBS WORLD NOTES
General Notes
- (Hibernia) The Carrion encounter in the Hibernian Deadlands has been modified so that the wisps that start the encounter reset to their original spawn point after an appropriate amount of time when the encounter has failed. This should help prevent the wisps from migrating across the zone or getting stuck near the obelisk nearby. Note: You may still find monsters from this encounter near the obelisk if they were pulled there, but the change allows the encounter to reset better when the encounter has failed or been abandoned.
Instanced Adventuring Notes - General
- New task dungeon entrances for players that are levels 1 to 10 have been added to the Ludlow and Vasudheim areas. These entrances lead to the same 1 - 10 task dungeons found in the starter town areas. New Taskmasters have been added as well to Ludlow and Vasudheim that give tasks designated for the new dungeon entrances.
Dungeon Notes - General
- Melgron the Ancient in the "Ancient's Retreat" adventure wing has had its aggression radius and tether radius normalized so that it won't attack players before players can attack it.

- Epic raid level encounters intended for 3-4 full groups have been added to each of the Relic temples in the Frontiers.
