    Ninja changes since the patch

    List here all the things that were not announced in patch notes, but are different. Preferably things that seem intentional, not just little bugs like party SP bonus doesn't work. I'll start:

    1) You can now invite people from anywhere in the world.

    /pcmd add <player name>

    Example: /pcmd add Frank Thomas

    2) Teleport offers last forever now.

    party teleport requires that you are much closer now. Presumably because of the segregated zone changes.

    I use port mules regularly and have always left them at the aetheryte but that isn't possible any more. It appears I just need to be close enough to see HP

    Doesn't appear you can enter and exit leves to get the faction you want anymore. My wife and I were trying last night and couldn't get any to swap factions. Saw it mentioned in the broken update thread too.

    On ARC, when you run out of arrows or forget to equip arrows after changing class, the Refill ability will equip arrows. Not sure how this is handled if you have more than one type of arrow in inventory however.

    **UPDATE**

    I added bronze arrows to inventory. Refill still worked and equipped the Warped Arrows. I'm guessing it will use the lowest rank arrows?

    Its been a while since Ive been sub-20, but I swear things are easier. The Wight leve didnt rape my face, I aggro an ant and get hit for 0 with stoneskin on as a level 18. Others can probably speak better, but some things may be been toned down?

    Did they lower repair requirements?

    r13 weaver just repaired my r28 cotton trousers...
    Before it used to be optimal rank - 10 for NQ.

    Maybe it's dependent on the difficulty of the craft instead the final item's level. This would actually made sense, I ran into a situation where I couldn't repair an item I crafted myself before.

    No, there was a pretty solid theory on repair reqs before patch.
    It was like:
    - NQ = Optimal rank of item - 10
    - HQ +1 = Optimal rank of item - 5
    - HQ + 2 = Optimal rank of item
    - HQ + 3 = Optimal rank of item + 5

    But it seems this theory is no longer valid. As you can see on the link on YG:
    Edit 11/26: The new requirements to repair an item are significantly lower than the old. I am now able to repair my iron shortsword +1 (which previously required a rank 37 or higher blacksmith) easily as a rank 27 Blacksmith. Going to try repairing a few other things with lower crafts to see exactly what the minimum is now relative to the rank of the item.

    Refill already did this prepatch. Except if you had 1 stack of warped arrows and 1 stack of bronze it would equip the warped; when you ran out of warped it would act retarded and not allow you to switch to bronze until you left battle.[/quote]

    I'd guess that.

    The duration of the guild facilities' effects appears to be lenghtened. Yesterday I used Master's Gemmary and it lasted for like 20-30 minutes. I don't remember it being this long before, but I'm not 100% sure, so feel free to correct me.

    It was listed in the notes, now lasts 60mins I believe from what they said.

    Pre patch it was rare for a block to fail. Now I fail blocks like crazy. Don't mind much since the skill for shield is great, but I don't recall seeing anything about block rating being adjusted.

    I have heard more than one person complain about it, but I don't see it at all. I've also seen someone say it's a bug that can be fixed via gear-swap. No idea otherwise.

    I've seen both, and the default run speed nerf is NOT the gear-swap run speed nerf. The run speed problem that can be fixed with gear swap is almost like walking speed, literally unbearable. The one that people are complaining about is much more subtle, feels like about a 10% reduction. Run speed was just lowered, and some people aren't noticing it because you can't compare side by side with before. I've actually started to get used to the slower run speed now, but it's definitely there.

    Yeah, it feels like a 10% reduction. It's probably more obvious to me because I mine and am always running with my map open, keeping an eye on how fast the cursor is moving. It's very strange that they would do this and I hope it is not permanent.

    Quality gain while crafting using either Bold or Standard is completely nerfed, ninja style.

    Yes! This made me rage quit playing the game today. Synths I could get easily 500 quality on now I am barley getting 200. So much for stock piling antelope horns.

    Until we actually figure out if going over 200 or so really affects HQ rate, it's possible that it might not even matter.
