1.69 Heads Up *fixes that may cause your char to be illegal*

Post by XDragonDoomX »

"Feat Prerequisite changes (these may make some existing characters invalid in multiplayer games)

The Epic Dodge feat now requires 30 ranks of Tumble skill as a prerequsite, as per the description (feat.2da).

The "Dragon Shape" feat now requires Wild Shape 6x/day as per the description (feats.2da).

Fixed prerequisite for "Epic Weapon Focus Club" to be "Weapon Focus Club" rather than "Improved Critical Club" (feat.2da).

Weapon Specialization Club now requires four fighter levels to obtain (rather than one). "


May be worth checking your chars now - to make sure that they comply. If not, consider muling yr gear and possible rebuilds. No idea when it will be released yet, but if you leave it too late.........

139. My bard is required to take levels in the perform skill and cannot 'just play by ear'

2. A one man band is not an appropriate bard instrument.

26. Valley speak has no place in a fantasy setting. Especially if you're the paladin.

The Bioware team have said (not promised) they will look into ways not to have those "fixes" invalidate existing characters.

There has also been talk amoung the scripting group of making a Leto based fix that server owners could use to retro the characters and make them compliant. This fix wold require the server owner to revert to the current version since the legal character setting would prevent a log on after the 1.69 update.

That is two possible fixes, but no promises that either will appear.

So, yes... If you have a character with an out of range value as per the 1.69 settings, you may want to see about a fix ahead of time..... or at least strip them down before the update just to be sure you can at least keep your gear.

Speaking of 1.69, I was wondering if they would be implementing feats pertaining to some of the CEP weapons (like the Pick or Maul) to allow for more varied Weapon Master builds.

Only the trident, which isn't really a cep weapon. It's a good weapon too, basically a one-handed spear.
