Featured Changes

• The Matrix Online Story Continues in Episode 2.3!
  The 2.3 Cinematic and Storyline missions are now available in game.



• New CCR UI
  The /ccr system now uses an in-game UI window rather than opening an in-game browser.

Changes and Improvements

• Logic Daemon 2.0 now logically uses Hacker attacks.
• The key to trigger slash commands is no longer rebindable from the Advanced Key Bindings window. Players that have already rebound the slash command key will need to reset to default bindings using the UI if they wish to change it again.

Bug Fixes

• Sneak, Concealment, Escape and Evasion, Disguise, and Invisibility now deactivate aura abilities when used. (Fixes exploit.)
• Getting Stunned by Devastation Field now sets a 30-second Stun-immunity timer. Players with an active immunity timer cannot be stunned by Devastation field, but the attack can still hit and cause damage.
• Zen Master will no longer be loaded in to memory on any character.
• Details on Silver Dragon gang-members now correctly lists their location as Furihata.
• The ambush at the beginning of the mission "Free Music" should now be made up of appropriate level enemies.
• When the ambush NPCs in the Chef mission "Bedtime Reading" are defeated, the escorted NPCs no longer die.
• Pandora's Box mission bug that caused all NPCs to drop mission keys has been fixed. (Bug caused player Inventories to fill up so they couldn't carry final items.)
• Bug making it impossible for a player to leave a mission team even when it was disbanded has been fixed.

Bug Fixes

• More situations that cause the stuck in Interlock bug have been fixed.

Lending a Helping Hand In the Wake of Hurricane Katrina
Official News - 11:00 PM EDT | Posted By: Brekkee
SOE Posted the following request on their website: Hurricane Katrina has left an incredible wake of destruction across the south. Sony Online Entertainment would like to ask you to take a moment to make a donation to the American Red Cross in order to help alleviate some of the suffering. In EverQuest II we have added the /donate command, type in /donate to be taken to the American Red Cross's Hurricane 2005 relief page. For those members of SOE Communities in other games, you can contribute using this link, American Red Cross. The American Red Cross will process your donation and make sure that it is put to maximum use to help those whose lives have been affected by the hurricane. Additionally, for our 13,000+ players actually in the affected areas, we will be suspending billing until such time as they are able to play again. In addition, any items or structures in any of our games, which decay over time, will be preserved until the user's next login. Thank you in advance for your support and generosity. The SOE Family
