Weekend Warfront: Battle at the Gate

Image

The Phoenix Gate guards the entrance to the inner lands of Ulthuan; soft rolling landscapes where in more peaceful ages the Ellyrion Horselords bred Elven Steeds. Now the plains are filled with signs of war – siege engines and corpses litter the landscape as Order and Destruction forces vie for control of the Phoenix Gate and all that lies beyond.

This weekend Battle at the Gate will be the weekend warfront from 12:00 on Friday to 12:00 on Monday Altdorf time. You get +50% XP and Renown in the Phoenix Gate scenario, and extra rewards from completing the event tasks.



Realm versus Realm

General

- White RvR bags now contains two Invader crest shards or two royal crests shards if you have the Vanquisher or Invader tome unlocks



Contents

General

- Pathfinding should be enabled in all zones (previously we had to turn it off due to a crashing issue)

Dungeons

- Fixed an issue with Kaarn the Vanquisher. Rage of Khorne was increasing too fast and Bloodrage was increasing too slowly. Now both buffs should be increasing at their intended rate.

- You will now receive messages when entering an instance. (Additional messages when binding will also be shown incase any issues occur)

- You can now enter an instance before the group leader, however the instance state will still be restored from the group leader.

- You group will be soft bound to an instance when a player first enters. You can do /partyresetinstance to clear this (if you want to switch leaders for example and progress from the other players).

- You will be bound to the new instance when you kill your first boss (if you had previously changed instance/group).

- You will be bound to a new instance if you progress further in your new instance than your last instance.

- Logging back into your character in an instance will now put you back into the instance and instance group.

- Logging back into an instance after a server restart will start the instance from its saved state.

- Being kicked out of a group while in a Dungeon will return you to the entry point.

- You should no longer be able to join an instance and have more than 6 players.

- Logging into the game when you were in a Dungeon or Scenario which no longer exists will now properly teleport you to the point before you entered, or if failing that your bind point. ( Before you would experience some green screens and be teleported to the city)

Quests

- RvR Scout quests in T4 have been reworked.

Greenskin Chapter 13
- Gork vs Sigmar: The whole quest line is now available and reworked
- Scout Reports: The quest markers have been corrected, and the quest objectives are now completed by talking to the right Bloody Sun Scouts

Except if you actually put effort in getting your invader or sov gear. Which means now there'll be much more people with participation trophy level gear. And that lowbies will face hordes of people in sov.

Boys can we have some actual legit "hidden appearance" items though? Engi barely even uses their melee weapon, shouldn't be an issue really
Or like hidden shoulders for choppa, hidden everything for slayer ;) (well except pants :roll: )

Sov is already "participation" trophy kind of gear and it should be easier to obtain so people can catch up easier. Everyone has multiple alts with sov by now. Personaly I'd prefer horizontal progression instead of power creep.

It's impossible to make it worse, I think
