Hot Fix Notes



1.126 Live Hot Fix

Posted by John Thornhill | 2019 Nov 13 16:38 -0500 GMT

Endless Conquest and patch 1.126 have been up and running smoothly for a full day now. It's been exciting seeing all the new (and many familiar!) faces. A huge thank you to those who have sent in feedback and/or bug reports, please keep them coming! We have some fixes and changes based on those initial reports for you this evening.

Developer's note:

  • We're currently aware of and working hard on fixes for the following issues (these fixes will likely require server downtime to address):
    • Certain pets chain-buffing themselves as well as occassionally enemy targets.
    • Certain pets not casting certain abilities that they normally would.
    • Targeting and attacking issues after coming out of forceful zephyr.
      • NOTE: As a temporary solution, players experiencing this issue can clear their target by clicking on the ground and then re-select their target to be able to attack again.
    • Dead players appearing as "alive" briefly after /releasing.
    • The /bg groups command no longer functioning
