My patience with this annoyance is gone. I recall several threads started shortly after the lastpublish trying to nail down the changes that were clearly made to either force costs or regen. To the best of my knowledge no dev's have admitted to any changes intentionally or not. I know that pub 24 is supposed to carry with it the fix for the robes and ca's bonuses to regen....but logically I have to ask what were they doing with regen in the first place to bork them? There was nothing in the pub 23 patch notes about changing anything to regen, robes, or force regen ca's?


Regardless, if this is more of the stealth borking that will be met with the usual rhetoric of "functioning as intended" then I'm going to have to make room in my template for channel and possibly meditate. I would just like know for sure before gimping my toon's template to accommodate the current state of regen, to only have it fixed in the next hot fix/publish.

There was a change in publish 23 to display under your HAM bar the buff state of wearing the robes.

How the heck adding a state display could break regen rates is a question for someone else to answer.

Indeed hahaha, they certainly seem to be adept at creating their own job security.


However they were messing with the personal light....for the avatar. Don't take that as adisagreementthough, as I completely agree with your statement about breaking more than they fix. I just question whether it's really unintentional. I guess I have a hard time believing they are that inept at fixing bugs within their own system, that was part of the point of the CU right? So the code would be more easilyrepairable and expandable right? It's clear that marketing and PR folks over there do their job amazingly well.

Ahhhhh yes, I forgot about the bullseye buff icon they added. Anything they put their hands to it seems.

This is a very old story that started with EQ. A fix for a bug I should say. SOE teams always mess with something when they do a patch. One should think they have learned something with a few years of EQ patching but hell no

the only reason that i can think of for them to add robes like a buff state would be to manipulate the stats easier. they should do away with robes and just give us the extra 250 force and plus 10 regen rate when you get out of the village. let the BE worry about clothing us.
