Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning

WAR Patch Notes - 9/26/2008

The first true patch for Warhammer Online has come this morning, and surprisingly the downtime only lasted a bit over 1.5 hours.  The patch has introduced a number of key fixes to issues the community has brought up, signaling the fact that Mythic is truly listening to community concerns.

You can check out the patch notes in full below; they're rather small, but this isn't a content patch -- this is all about making sure player issues are addressed in a timely fashion.


Patch Notes

  • Queues bypass system:  Player's position in the queues will now be saved when disconnected for a short period of time.
  • Guild Tavern:  All players in a guild will now have access to the guild tavern at the appropriate guild rank level.
  • Tactic Trainers: All tactic trainers in the main city libraries have been temporarily turned off, while we investigate an issue involving them. They will return as soon as this issue is resolved, we apologize for the inconvenience. 
  • Troll Country: Players will no longer get the T3 scenario queue window when attempting to zone into the scenario cave in Troll Country
  • Open-RvR Servers: Players will no longer receive the "bolster" buff while in Kadrin Valley
  • As always we're working to improve performance and stability across the board!

    Powerful guilds from all over the world come to Altdorf and The Inevitable City to gather and trade their secrets in our Guild Taverns. Will you answer the call and join them? Only the most prestigious guilds are able to enter these special areas, where guilds enjoy a variety of benefits available only to them! Wouldn’t it be great to have a place to network and ally with like-minded guilds to plan and carouse until the wee hours of the morning? We thought so too, and it’s for that reason that we bring you Guild Taverns! Members of Order and Destruction alike will find solace in our taverns at Guild Rank 6. If you’re an Order player, your tavern is located in Sigmar’s Hammer in the War Quarters in Altdorf. For Destruction, visit The Viper Pit in Fate’s Edge in The Inevitable City. Speak to the Guild Merchant just outside Sigmar’s Hammer or The Viper Pit once your guild is eligible, and he will grant you entry. Cities must be at Rank 2 in order for the Taverns to be accessible. Once within the Guild Tavern, guilds will have access to various merchants who offer many different items and services. The items and services available are dependent on the guild’s level. A few examples include: - Flight Master: Taverns provide flight masters who offer normal travel options, but also guild rank-based locations including: Gunbad’s Entrance, Bastion Stair’s Entrance, and Lost Vale’s Entrance - Guild Standard Merchant - Crafting Merchant: This merchant will sell various components for crafting which are not otherwise able to be purchased, but must usually be found via butchering or scavenging. - Renown Merchant: The Renown Merchant offers Renown gear at a discounted rate of coin. - Siege Weaponry: This merchant offers siege at a discounted rate. - More: We have plans to add even more specialized merchants to the guild hall as time goes by! Services available to guilds via the Guild Taverns are dependent on the guild’s Rank. Some of these services include: Recall Scrolls: Players can buy a guild recall scroll from the store which will allow guilds to transport back to the tavern during a city’s peaceful state The Leader’s Hall: At guild rank 16, this room provides Guild Leaders and Officers with a rest bonus, which gives a bonus to the player’s rested experience. Guild Registrar: The fellows who help out with Guild Creation can be found right outside of The Viper Pit and the War Quarters, so you can easily find them and other guild related services there!

    Snuffsis: I believe this is for all realms. Perhaps the EU patch is delayed though due to GOA providing the service rather than Mythic themselves.

    Would be great to know if this is for EU or US clients and realms as well.

    The Guild Tavern is an area that guilds over rank 6 can access. It has renown gear vendors, a flight master, and a crafting trainer that sells various mats depending on your guild rank. This vendor also sells you scrolls that teleport you to the guild tavern once you reach a higher guild rank. Finally, there is a back room accessible to officers and guild masters for meetings and such. Personally, I'd rather see an instanced area that only your guild can access for use in meetings, myself.

    It's the first patch they've actually provided patch notes for.

    Why would this be considered a true patch and all the others not..Doesn't look any different to me than all the others

    I believe the guild tavern provides an accruing rested xp bonus while inside.
