The following changes will be applied during server wars tonight:
- The Minotaur (Meraktus) champion spawn in the Labyrinth will be activated. Note that:
- Meraktus no longer drops "minotaur hedges" or "tormented chains", as it did during previous events. If anyone can confirm these items even exist on OSI please let me know.
- Items you can get from this champion are:
- Unique: Subdue
- Shared: Royal Guard Survival Knife, The Most Knowledge Person, Oblivion's Needle
- Decorative: Artifact Vase (two kinds), Minotaur Statue Deed
- Added the ML stat gain system, making stat gains much faster. Specifically:
- Stat gains occur for 1 in 20 skill gains. Gaining stats at the total skills cap remains possible.
- Each skill raises a primary stat (75%) and secondary stat (25%). (See UOGuide for a list.)
- If the rolled stat is not pointing up, the other stat will be used.
- Stat gains are no longer time delayed, for both players and pets.
- Pets will now gain hits/stamina/mana from training str/dex/int, even if these values are set separately.
- Paragon monsters no longer auto attack mobiles they would not attack normally (hidden players, players using ethereal voyage/honor, etc).
- The Twisted Weald desert now slows down movement.
