***Patch Day***

The following is a list of changes that were implemented on the Live
EverQuest servers today:

*Spells*

- You will now receive a message when attempting to mesmerize a creature
that is immune to that type of spell.
- You can now right-click-and-hold on bard songs to determine what
instrument skill is used by the spell.
- Dyn's Dizzying Draught has had its casting time lowered significantly.
- Corrected a bug in the Druid root+damage spells (Enveloping roots series)
that caused the spell's damage to have a chance of breaking the spell. They
work much better now.
- The Magicians Phantom Armor series now grants HP regeneration.
- The Druid spell, dance of the fireflies, has been changed from "Outdoor
only" to "Night only". It may now be cast in dungeons.
- Corrected a typographical error that allowed high level magicians to
inscribe the Malosi spell. It was not intended for magicians under level
50.

*General Changes/Fixes*

- Items have gained the ability to be restricted by Deity. If a deity
restriction is placed upon an item, it will show when you
right-click-and-hold on the item.
- The AC on the mid-level cleric quest armor has been increased.
- The Terror Mask will now cast "Fear" instead of "Call of Bones" as
previously announced. The "Call of Bones" effect was placed on this item by
mistake.
- The Mempo of Likato now grants AC.
- The Quest for the Short Sword of Morin has been fixed.
- Some spawn-time problems in Mistmoore have been repaired.
- Five spawn-time problems were identified in regards to the Armor of Ro
(Paladin) quests. They have been fixed and Paladins should have a much
easier time of obtaining their armor.
- Pets should now attack Willowisps on command.
- Many spell-gems and icons have been changed to reflect the appropriate
action of the spell. Be sure to reacquaint yourself with your spell
line-up.
- Fixed a bug that caused targetable bard songs to ignore the instrument in
use.

*Kerra Ridge*

Kerra Ridge has been completely revamped. The target level-range for the
zone has been slightly increased. In addition, many new quests have been
added to the zone. The faction for Kerrans has been changed so that those
who killed them indiscriminately before today's update can take part. Be
warned that the Kerrans still do not like everyone.

*Paw*

Paw has received another minor difficulty adjustment. In addition, item
drop percentages have been increased.

*The Plane of Hate*

The Plane of Hate has received an item-drop/spawn-time revamp. Take care in
your exploration of this zone as many things have changed.
