The damage of this proc is identical to the Volcanist Elemental's Flame Shock. __________________________________________________ ______________________________ There is new Merchant in the Guild Lobby which offers some more exotic crafting goods for a price. __________________________________________________ ______________________________ Many crafting items have had their value increased to better reflect the money on the server. __________________________________________________ ______________________________ Gorbatroth The Crusher is now a rare spawn in Mount Rathe but he drops something very powerful now. __________________________________________________ ______________________________ __________________________________________________ ______________________________ |
One thing I noticed with the bots. My tank bot wasn't holding aggro and my cleric was getting it all. Then I discovered #bot taunt on and it works good now. You do have to use the command every time you zone.

ONLINE CHANGES - 05/11/12
I Have began adding new code to the path npcs which will prevent players from choosing more than one path now as originally intended. Players can turn their charms into the new Path Changer NPC in the guild lobby to unlock the ability to become something different within their guild. I have the warriors done right now and should have the rest of the classes done in a couple days. Please keen in mind I will be doing a final purge of charms on bots to finally get the server balanced where it needs to be. With this change I feel the experience could be toned up a bit now so I will probably up it a couple notches. |
SMALL UPDATE - 05/12/12
Experience rates have been increase by 0.2 __________________________________________________ ____ Max level is now 25. __________________________________________________ ____ The bug that was causing UI and Macro loss is gone now. IF you changed your files please rename them back to "Varlyndria". __________________________________________________ ____ www.varlyndria.weebly.com |
SERVER DOWNTIME - 05/14/12 -12:00pm MST
The server will be coming down at 05/14/12 - 12:00pm MST. The estimated downtime is 2 hours. NOTE TO ALL PLAYERS: Bots will be purged of all charms while the server is down tomorrow. I have added code to all NPC paths which finally brings Varlyndria to the balance I originally intended. Players can no longer get more than one charm and the only way they can change paths is by turning their current charm into the new PATH CHANGER npc located in the Guild Lobby. |
UPDATE 05/14/12 (VARLYNDRIA ALPHA PHASE 1)
PLEASE DOWNLOAD THE LATEST FILES FOR THIS UPDATE - Varlyndria Files 05 14 12 __________________________________________________ _____________________________ Varlyndrian Herald: One of the Norrathians swear they saw the shadow of a huge being next to a holy place. The man died shortly after and wasn't able to tell the exact location of where he saw it. __________________________________________________ _____________________________ Varlyndria will soon be hosted on a powerful server machine. This should allow a lot more players in one zone and raids will be possible with bots, swarm classes and more. (Special thanks to Lord Adakos) __________________________________________________ _____________________________ Barison Garthak now has a new TANKING weapon to give to new tank players or bots. __________________________________________________ _____________________________ The Adventurer's merchant now has a new TANKING weapon for sale for players or bots. __________________________________________________ _____________________________ All Tier 1 path charms on bots have been removed. This will be the last purge because all class path NPCs are now fixed and will never allow more than 1 charm per character at any given time. Players may change their path but they must first turn their charm into the Path Changer who can be found inside the main Varlyndrian Lobby. __________________________________________________ _____________________________ Tier 1 charms have been changed back to normal lore because of the changes. __________________________________________________ _____________________________ |
ETA untill path weapons are out?

Sometime this month is what I am aiming for.

UPDATE: 05/15/12
NOTE: Look for the server on the top of the white server listings. It now looks like this: !Varlyndria Varlyndria is officially on a hosted server now and should be running much better for guild raids, massive bot parties and swarm pets! Enjoy! www.varlyndria.weebly.com |
RESTART 05/16/12
Bots are back to normal and group buff, cap at 5 and have extremely fast mana regen. PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THE SERVER IS UP BUT IT DOESN'T CURRENTLY SHOW ON THE LAUNCHER LIST REGISTERED. (WORKING ON FIXING THIS) Look for ! Varlyndria at the top of the white list. |
SMALL UPDATE 05/16/12
Resistance bonuses for being higher level that the caster have changed in the casters favor. The target will no longer gain 5% per level higher than the caster but instead now gain 2%. This will allow a level 25 caster going against a level 45 enemy almost a 50% chance to land their attacks instead of 100% resists as before. Pets no longer steal exp of any kind. |
UPDATE - 05/18/12
PLEASE DOWNLOAD THE LATEST FILES FOR THIS UPDATE - Varlyndria Files 05 18 12 __________________________________________________ _____________________________ Conjurer's weapons no longer have a proc and their staff is now nodrop/magician only and has changed from a proc to a clicky effect. The clicky is the old proc spell. The weapon models have been nerfed for tradable items. This change was to bring Conjurer's into their own realm instead of being used as bot suppliers only. Conjurer's can still supply bots and other players with nice stat weapons but the day of 5 berserker bots with conjured proc weapons is over. Conjurer's can also summon a nice 1 handed sword now too. (as per request) __________________________________________________ _____________________________ Diablo The Lord Of Terror and Gorbatroth the Crusher have had their health nerfed by 60% because of the new changes to conjured weapons. __________________________________________________ _____________________________ Clerics now gain a large amount of fire spells from the wizard class. The spells gained are 2 levels higher than when wizards gain them. This change is to help the Heretic dps path actually do something besides watch their pet fight. __________________________________________________ _____________________________ |
Wow, spam! If you need help getting your own forums for patch notes, let me know and I'll help. This seems like a twitter feed, not the purpose of this forum.

UPDATED FROM THE BOXING VOTE - MY FINAL WORD
The vote is over. 2 boxing will be enforced and I am sorry for all the trouble and if this seems unfair. I've made my mind up. I can't allow players to have that kind of power solo. It defeats the entire purpose of a raid (multiple people fighting together) and allows players to solo raids.. I just can't allow this anymore and its hurting the server. IPs will become 2 max and this will never change. Thanks for the small pole but ultimately I have to balance the server and allowing that power is not a good thing. I apologize to anybody who feels this sucks or is unfair but giving you the ability to have your entire own raid is eliminating the entire point of raiding with friends and guilds and ultimately crushes the aspect of players working together. The change will take effect immediately. |
I feel the 2 box rule cheats players who were using the original 3 box rule since the birth of the server. I will be putting it back to 3 and it will stay 3. This will also help FAMILIES who want to play on the server a lot more than 2. Sorry for mix up and bullshit. What's not broken doesn't need to be fixed. With this said: Do not ask me for personal favors on changing these rules.

UPDATE 05/21/12
PLEASE DOWNLOAD THE LATEST FILES FOR THIS UPDATE - VARLYNDRIA FILES 05 21 12 __________________________________________________ ______________ All Thurgadin Velious Armor has been improved in stats. __________________________________________________ ______________ Most custom items no longer share a cooldown with other cooldowns. This should fix a good deal of charms or items that seem broken. __________________________________________________ ______________ All charms now have Rank 1 at the end of them. This is to show players it's the first charm and you'll be able to upgrade them in a later update. __________________________________________________ ______________ Warchanters have a new animation on their charm's proc. __________________________________________________ ______________ Terrorizers now have their fear/snare as a recourse on their charm spell. This allows them to toss the dot on bosses or other creatures that are immune to these effects. In addition, the spell now deals instant damage along with its dot ticks. __________________________________________________ ______________ Cryomancers now have their snare effect as a recourse on their charm spell. This allows them to hit bosses or other creatures with thier ice nuke even if they are immune to the snare. This also allows the spell to critical strike, making the path a lot stronger. The damage of the spell has also been increased to 475 at level 20 up from 415. This gets it 25 points away from the Pyromancer spell. __________________________________________________ ______________ Herald: "Extra! Extra! Somebody has reported a vile creature terrorizing Lake Rathe! Varlyndria need to act fast and get on the move! __________________________________________________ ______________ |
UPDATE 05/22/12
__________________________________________________ __________________ Barisons, Adventurers and Conjured Monk/Beastlord weapons have had their weight reduced from 8.5 to 0.1. __________________________________________________ __________________ Sage's Robe - now has a 5 second cast time clicky instead of 28. __________________________________________________ __________________ There is a new NPC which teaches players their skills in the guild lobby. Special thanks to Xiao for the work on this. __________________________________________________ __________________ Several clicky recasts have been adjusted and should hopefully work as the following: Tier 1 charms, Summoned Items, and Boss Items are now on their own seperate timers. This means a clicky from a boss item will effect the other boss clicky but not the tier 1 charm or summon item cast. __________________________________________________ __________________ Diablo has moved to Lavastorm Mountains next to Najena. __________________________________________________ __________________ Watertorn items that produce Clarity and Enduring breath no longer have a 30 second recast and are now instant. __________________________________________________ __________________ Velious gems are now NO DROP and can't be resold to a merchant. However, a player may still purchase or win them from the casino. __________________________________________________ __________________ Magician: Magical Bag Of The Conjurer Rank 1 is now a 5 minute recast and no longer shares the same recast as the Conjurer's Master Staff Of Force. __________________________________________________ __________________ |
UPDATE 05/23/12
PLEASE DOWNLOAD THE NEW FILES FOR UPDATE: Varlyndria Files 05 23 12 __________________________________________________ ________________________________ Barison's Dagger and Diablo's Dagger Of Hellfire now have double the backstab they used to before. __________________________________________________ ________________________________ Paladins and Shadowknights now have Touch Of Death and Touch Of Life in their spell books. These spells can be used every 5 minutes and gain level+1 x50 damage/healing These are excellent alternatives to the harmtouch/lay on hands and can be used much more often. __________________________________________________ ________________________________ Path charm spells are now almost impossible to resist. __________________________________________________ ________________________________ The Terrorizer charm now has a 100% snare as well as its damage over time, but the fear effect has been removed. (there will be a quick optional use fear clicky on their sword in update 1.0) The spell is now called Curse Of Crippling Torment Rank 1. This spell can be used on custom bosses with no problems. __________________________________________________ ________________________________ The Cryomancer charm has been changed. It is now usable every 6 seconds down from 15 but the snare has been nerfed to 50% and the damage can never critical hit. This still lets them do very close to the damage of a pyromancer and still reign as the kiting wizard gods of Varlyndria. __________________________________________________ ________________________________ Wildheart's Groves Serenity spell now heals for 40 a tick regen for 30 minutes at level 20 instead of 20 points. __________________________________________________ ________________________________ Sharphin has changed his strategy a bit and now drops a couple new weapons! He can be found residing somewhere in Lake Rathetear. __________________________________________________ ________________________________ |
