fighter updates
* added shield bash - paras mobs for 4 sec, players for 2, 50% block required, req 50 rage - buy it from the fighter trainer
* added berserk stance for fighters: +25% attack speed increase with 2H weapons, +25% damage taken, as above for buying
* tactics reduces damage taken by up to 25%, scrapped the +2 def from it
* thunderclap now does 75% dmg per hit (up from 50%) and stuns mobs for 3 sec, while target players are confused for 3 sec (unchanged)
* shield users with block skill take reduced magic damage

other changes
* new style (as in backend) named items - soon you will be able to name anything you like for addy coins, self service
* added dm_takes_damage server parameter (it's for testing )
* reduced machete base damage, increased speed (it nerfs backstab but it's still best backstabber)
* nerfed mani a tiny bit
* adjusted clone spells (for magrock)

The fighter trainer doesn't sell shield bash, it sells In Lor? o.O

Won't let me. Says I already have it (I keep magery limited to 0 and spam IL to cast light)...

Also, zerk stance seems to work only the first 1-2 hits, after that it goes to regular speed (without stance)...

EDIT: actually its about every 5th hit or something... It like skips or some crap.

EDIT: tested 25% dmg taken with zerk stance... It is the same thing it looks like? Seems like some hits were 25% more, while others weren't. (tested vs blood golem)

OKKKKKKKKKKKK last EDIT:::

I hit LESS DAMAGE before patch with no stance whatsoever. With zerk stance activated, I hit my original damage and no speed increase (pretty sure, could be wrong it might still skip)... I do not know if my base weapon speed hits faster, haven't played in a while so forgot how slow it was before.

I said last EDIT so I'll double post :P

Zerk stance stays active with a 1h weapon equipped. Also, The bonus dmg bug applies (previous post). So I hit about 25% more with a cleaver then I should with zerk stance activated. 1h weapons have same base damage though.

Also, I do NOT take 25% increased damage... Tested with akioka hitting me with and without zerk stance activated. Same damage each time.

Here are a few things i've noticed:
- You can use both stances with any weapon fighter weapon (can't enter either stance with other weapon classes) ... 1h or 2h.
- When you are in tanking stance and remove a 1h or 2h weapon, the tanking stance buff (-dmg taken) and debuff (-dmg dealt) are removed correctly, but when you are in berserker stance and remove a 1h or 2h weapon, only the buff (+dmg dealt) is remove while the debuff (+dmg taken) remains.
- the bersker stance is applied to 1h weapons instead of 2h weapons, I notice about a 25% damage dealt (though the buff says speed - so you just need to change the buff text) boost as well as a damage received boost with 1h weapons of about 25% (tested only with magical damage though).
- the tactics damage reduction seems to work
- the shield magic damage reduction seems to work.
- and you as mentioned before ... you cannot buy the shieldbash skill ... the only other new thing offered on that merchant/npc is the IL spell.



Also, can you clarify the clone update please? And will renamed items be glowing like artifacts after they are renamed?

This did not seem to change anything. Clone spells work just fine and as they did before. I wanted to buy a “avatar scroll ‘Minotaur Shaman‘” but the Cash Shoppe sells you a “avatar scroll ‘Minotaur’” instead.

- hopefully fixed the barbed/addled/brass thing - but I think everyone's mithiril is gunna be lost, so I'll fix that case by case basis if anyone actually cares
- magrock's thing was done last week
- s/b able to get shield bash
- all speed increases should work (another thing that reqd client patch)

seriously, don't do updates like this in a hurry or when there are other people around - it just turns to shit


mithril update:
- I'm rolling back chests and plyr merchs 30 hrs- but keeping backups - if you put something awesome in a chest in the last 30 hrs or so and now it is gone email me about it, and I will check the backup and restore the item
- mithril in inventories of anyone who played in the last 12hrs is probably gone - if it was something special I'll fix it otherwise, sorry
- mithril in houses is gone
- runed/addled/barbed s/b ok now

so if you have a serious mithril loss or whatever, email me euo@swut.net and I'll fix or compesate :uhh:

Woah OMG that's fast.

Base damage is STILL lower without zerk stance activated.

Can still use zerk stance with 1h weapon equipped. It raises damage still too.

I take less dmg with zerk stance on?

Would this apply to a Runed Superior Shield I had? It changed to Steel with this update.
