Representatives redirecting to the wrong place?
I just noticed that when using the representatives in the Great Temple of Balthazar, they are taking the player to the wrong places. When I tried to go to the jade quarry, they sent me to Fort aspenwood instead and when I tried to go to Fort Aspenwood, they wouldn't let me. Anyone else experienced this? --SavageX 22:50, 17 August 2006 (CDT)
 * Just tested w/both Kurzick and Luxon, both send you to the wrong places. --Rainith 22:59, 17 August 2006 (CDT)
 * Another update: They fixed this issue. Katscratched 23:25, 17 August 2006 (CDT)
 * Yep, the issue has been fixed. However, I think it should be noted that PvE/RP characters cannot access the missions if they haven't been to those places before. --SavageX 23:56, 17 August 2006 (CDT)

EoE
Will the EoE nerf cause the EoE bomb finnaly to go away?--Deserth 23:09, 17 August 2006 (CDT)


 * Technically it should. But EoE bombing has become such a big part of another disliked team build, IWAY. :) So, I am doubly happy. --Karlos 23:54, 17 August 2006 (CDT)
 * basically makes this skill worthless from a farming perspective. --Honorable Sarah [[image:Honorable_Icon.gif]] 00:18, 18 August 2006 (CDT)


 * A total nerf. not worth anything at all now. the greatest skill in the game goes down the drain, and maims all rangers around the world. :[ Foo 03:03, 18 August 2006 (CDT)


 * Crap. There goes the only point of my 55hp ranger. (What point, you might ask) --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (talk) 03:08, 18 August 2006 (CDT)


 * You're not serious. EoE was the bane of friend and foe alike in AB, because a dumb EoE-bomber would gladly sacrifice ten people from his team to take out three attackers, leading to a loss by numbers. And come on, it's not as if the Ranger-class doesn't have other great skills to choose from, it's still one of my favourite classes. With or without EoE - frankly, preferably without. --Black Ark 03:24, 18 August 2006 (CDT)


 * Yeah, rangers rock anyway, but if not the best skill, then it was atleast the most fun skill. nolani charr farming, urgoz bombing, dragon throat bombing, spider cave bombing... it's all gone now. Foo 03:43, 18 August 2006 (CDT)


 * I do think the nerf is a bit overkill...now the skill is almost entirely without use, as opposed to being almost without use except for a couple of trick pvp builds and farming. They could have gone softer on the nerf hammer >.> --Sami 05:35, 18 August 2006 (CDT)

New Weapons/Items...
Ok, the in-game rumor mill is going on in my alliance, here is what I am hearing: Please add info here with screenshots if possible or links to threads. --Karlos 00:03, 18 August 2006 (CDT)
 * New "Jade Sword" in the Jade Sea from the Outcasts.
 * New "Shield of the Hunt" in the Forest from the Wardens.
 * A bow in the FoW.


 * Update: FoW did not download any files. Just making a note. --Karlos 00:25, 18 August 2006 (CDT)


 * UpdatE: Jade Sword is confirmed in this thread. --Karlos 00:27, 18 August 2006 (CDT)


 * I added Gloom Shield from that thread. I also changed the note from 'Added new items' to 'Added new skins', because that's what they are. --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (talk) 01:22, 18 August 2006 (CDT)


 * Maybe they have added the stonehearder bow finally 211.26.110.226
