* Changed the intro movie!


RIFTS AND INVASIONS
* Colossi will be less ‘twitchy’ when being attacked by large groups of players.

COMBAT
* Changing Roles now causes your buffs cast on others in the world to be removed – this addresses some issues where players could buff groups/raids with abilities they then no longer had access to or even a soul equipped for.
* Fixed a number of other exploits that allowed certain spell effects to exist on multiple characters at the same time when they shouldn’t be.

ASSASSIN
* Fixed a bug where the internal cooldown was not working for weapon poisons.

It no longer triggers from ranged weapon critical attacks or attacks that require ‘Any Weapon’ and are not considered melee weapon attacks [Bard damage abilities, Saboteur Charges, Bombs, etc.].

chyba nie grałeś w żadną betę jeżeli myślisz że nie pogramy o 19. jeszcze ani razu nie zdarzyło się jakiekolwiek opóźnienie z włączeniem serwerów w Rifcie.

No raczej gralem. Nie porównuj bety gdzie policzyli sobie dokladnie ile osob moga wpuscic do headstartu gdzie pewnie z 80% wszystkich zainteresowanych wlasnie chce zaczac.

Tak i pewnie kazdy kto mial dostep do bety logowal sie w tym samym momencie.
Pomysl troche.
