Phase 3 Patch:
- For characters below level 25, the loss of experience points upon death has been significantly reduced. However, from level 25 onward, the amount lost remains unchanged.
- The skill progression for Dodge, Parry, Riposte (counterattack), and Block has been adjusted. The claim that 1H/2H Slashing (one-handed/two-handed slashing weapons) wouldn’t improve for Warriors and Paladins was a fabrication—they will grow normally.
- The functions of all number keys are now displayed. The NUM LOCK key (by default) can be used to lock the keypad’s functionality.
"PK Changes"
- PK (Player Killer) level restrictions have been divided into four tiers. A level 20 PK cannot attack a level 15 PK (and vice versa), but a level 20 PK can attack a level 16 PK.
- Restrictions have also been added to PK looting: only non-container items can be taken. This means you can’t loot everything from an opponent’s inventory, nor can you take containers or their entire contents.
- PKs can now group with non-PKs and share experience points, but they cannot cast spells on each other, including beneficial support magic.
The use of "Rain"-type spells underground is currently considered a bug and will remain as-is until further notice. For details on magic-related bugs, refer to "EverQuest_Manual," Section 3 "Known Bugs."
