Patch Update
On Thursday we made a new build for version 1.4 (1.4.2) for the
Public Test Server. Currently, it’s going through final testing before it hits the PTS. Many of the concerns we had for 1.4 have been corrected in this new version and our goal for 1.4.2 is to have it out sometime next week. When 1.4 goes to PTS, the Orion player database will be copied to the Test Server. Stay tuned to the website for updates!
Patch Note Preview
Added new Operation:
Sanctus Grotto (Level 50) Will open 1/25/08.
This Forean spiritual retreat is rumored to contain a hidden subterranean temple containing an ancient and valuable Eloh relic. Join in a desperate race to locate the temple, solve the riddle that will open its seal, and retrieve the relic for the AFS. But hurry, the Bane have also heard about the relic, and they’re racing to get there first!
Chinese New Year
Players will get special treats on February 7th for Chinese New Year. Black Cat, Blue, Orange, Red, and Yellow fireworks will be in your backpack when you log in. Remember – Safety First: Do not light these fireworks with your fire propellant gun!
3 month Veteran Reward
Several players have been wondering what we have in store for our 3 month veterans. Well, if you are familiar with some of the earlier concepts of Tabula Rasa, you may just recognize our first reward, an old school Tabula Rasa “Kirin” mask. Players will also be able to show their dance skills with a /robot emote.
Player Questions from Feedback Form
Player Question: I originally had my account created with credit card billing, due to some bills and such I moved to a game card for one month and moved back to credit card billing this month (for the January billing cycle.) By moving my account back and forth like this have I reset my veteran's reward time?
Answer: Players will be rewarded for their number of months with an active account, whether they were paid for via credit card or game time card. Remember, the rewards are for the number of months with an active paid account. Changing the billing on the account will not affect the number of months you've already paid.
Player Question: Will TR ever have Game Cards available? I'm not a big fan of using Credit Cards.
Answer: We now have a PlayNC Game Time Card. This game time card is good for most NCsoft games, including City of Heroes/Villains, Tabula Rasa, Lineage II and more!
Player Question: With regards to the attribute changes mentioned in last week's Feedback Friday, two questions. 1) Are those changes in addition to the effects that the attributes currently have, or instead of? 2) Will your attributes still stay the same across all clones, across all subsequent clones, or will we now be able to respec attributes as well as skills when we clone?
Answer:
1) The attribute changes mentioned here are a replacement of the attributes’ current functionality.
2) You will not be able to respec your attributes on each clone unless you are given a global respec with an update.
