All artifact armors aren't giving any defense when equipped. It still shows the right amount when you look at the item in your inventory but when you equip it you gain no defense.

17 july - moa 0.98.3
* night vision bonus for brighter moons in outdoor maps
* monsters that are attacking you have a red box - to help tanks - toggle with ctrl-shift-t
* taunt now req 0 rage
* added an aoe taunt 'battle roar' which adds a lot of threat to all mobs within 3sq rad, req 0 rage (it forces mobs to attack you)
* charge hamstrings an enemy so that it can't move for 4 sec (but can still attack)
* launcher now has a checkbox to allow easy launching of the opengl client

Improved targeting for healers
(don't forget you can edit client.cfg to make a thicker crosshair large_crosshair=1)
* targeted party member name is in green in stats box
* changed good aligned crosshair to blue
* target locking - ctrl-L to lock your crosshair on one target (lock it on the damn tank!!)
* numpad+ also cycles targets (and shift numpad+)
* shouldn't lose target when some party member stands on top of your target
* a locked target (or any party target) can be a little further away than 4 squares before they become untargetted
( you can't hit the next targ button and pick up anyone inc party member that is beyond 4 sq tho - but once they are targetted they can move between 4-7 sq and stay targetted, and if locked, can go out of range and back into 7sq range and be instantly targetted again)

Awesome update, though you may want to tweak the colors just a bit so that the enemy health bar contrasts more with the boxes of monsters targeting you.

* instance support for single level dungeons!
an instance is a private copy of a dungeon. Every player or party that enters the instnace gets their own freshly spawned copy of the map all to them selves!

* converted blood dungeon / queen's lair to an instance (the very last level of blood moor)
* blood queen always spawns - this of course means you can't camp her and the dungeon must be cleared (or skipped) to get to her
* holes and instances do not respawn unless you enter them and leave them
* an instance will instantly unload and respawn when vacated - WARNING: if the entire party leaves even via a town portal the portal will close and the instance will be reset!!

I got on reg and noticed that I had a different staff equipped. It's so purdy. I absolutely love it, and I thunk I just fell in love with this game... again.
