Thie issues causing the shard to hang on restart should now be fixed. The problem was caused by an interface with the myUOSA site which was not terminating on shard restart.
Teratheans, Ophidians, Giant Serpent and Elder Gazer have seen a speed increase
Fixes issue with explosion potion LOS against mobiles when the ground is not visible, but the mobile is.
Fixes notoriety and karma for villains in Warlords Keep and Gypsy Camp
The post-T2A style Hair Deed will no longer be available. Only the classic OSI style deed with no pictures, but which includes the "afro" (called curly) will be created from here out.
NPC Shopkeepers will not do business with with Dread Players (karma < -9999)

I am guessing "trade"
Does this mean they cannot set up vendors, or cannot purchase from player vendors, or both?

NPC vendors in town. I don't think it impacts player-run vendors.

It's no big deal to raise karma briefly then drop it back down. :wink:

Really? I've had a hard time dropping Karma. As far as I know, they only way to get to dread is to kill Nobles, right? I don't know where to find them these days, except for in town, which is not a good idea.

The issue was that when targeting a mobile with an explosion potion, you would get "target cannot be seen" if the mobile was standing in a place where he could be seen (i.e. you could target a spell on him), but the ground beneath his feet could not be seen. It was an error in the Line Of Sight check that was specific to purple potions.

Hey Derrick, can you post a picture of the two types? Or at least the current menu as of this patch?

I'm curious what it looks like, no big deal though
