Alter Aeon

Alter Aeon server updates for Mar 18, 15 Raise up practice costs on some obscure spells, since they're optional. Lots of http interface infrastructure changes. This affects the way that login session and donation transactions are handled, as well a number of other things involving the web interface. Unless you know what to look for, or unless the new code breaks, you shouldn't notice changes. http://bit.ly/1Erc26C

Alter Aeon

Alter Aeon server updates for Mar 14, 15 From Shadowfax: Add leaderboards for feats and legacy quests. As with all leaderboard changes, these may take up to a month to stabilize. Add a 'quest replay' feature for quests you've already done. Add feats/deeds/legacy commands. Add finger options for feats/deeds/legacy quests. Lower movement cost of whirlwind. Make minimum movement needed to berserk dependent on warrior level, so high level players can't go negative if they're low to start with. Make strength and dex bonuses on combos less likely (other bonuses will now be more likely.) http://bit.ly/18oRVx0

Alter Aeon

Alter Aeon server updates for Mar 09, 15 Updates and improvements to main web site at http://bit.ly/1czgEvf. Damage of 'fury of the heavens' cut by 40%. Minor name selection cleanup in new character create. Explorer points can no longer be obtained in any area level 8 or lower. Display of explorer points at low levels should also be less confusing.

Practice gains for microlevels are now random, instead of exactly every three levels. There is also a chance to get two practices instead of one. http://bit.ly/1EvREX8
