Ein paar Highlights:

- Skill Tomes: You cannot select Use Magic Device - UMD tomes are available separately. Skill tome increases do not count for the purposes of meeting skill rank prerequisites

- A new named Augment called the Gift of the Master can now be created at the Altar of Epic Rituals near The Twelve by combining the Voice of the Master, Mantle of the Worldshaper, and five Greater Tokens of the Twelve. This item can be placed into any Colorless Augment Slot and provides a +5% Enhancement Bonus to all earned Experience Points. Using this augment on an item will permanently make the item Bound to Character.

- Collectors in Stormreach now have powerful new healing potions for sale! These Elixirs of Healing provide a large instant burst of healing, followed by a heal-over-time effect that continues to heal for ten seconds. Elixirs of Healing function equally well on living creatures, constructs, and undead who use them.
Elixirs of Healing can also be found in Daily Dice rewards and in the DDO Store

- A rare named augment called the Diamond of Vitality +20 can now be found at a certain location deep within The Crucible on Heroic Normal, Hard and Elite difficulties.

- Fixed a bug that could cause inconsistent results when monsters detect noises (such as an invisible player who is not sneaking.)

Hatte eine Fehlermeldung im DDO Launcher, die meinte ich sollte irgendwas von Microsoft neu/noch mal installieren:

Hat aber nix gebracht und ich konnte den Launcher nicht starten. Workaround steht im Forum, bekanntes Problem bei 64bit Betriebssystemen. Einfach in den DDO Ordner gehen und "DDOLauncher" per Rechtsklick als Admin ausführen. Dann geht es.
