Alter Aeon

Alter Aeon server updates for May 28, 16 Prevent system mobs from being fame. Don't allow player corpses to be sold in shops. Thunder seeds now works through magic resistance. Add kxwt_emote support for mush-z. Users of old mush-z versions will not be able to see emotes until they update. Make dodge, parry, and shield block a little easier to improve. Reduce the per-hit mana cost of mana shield. Packet mode dclient paste buffer is now bigger and should overflow less. Add skill exp to soulshatter. Change the freak system for soulsteal to make high freaks more likely and low freaks less likely. Add three minute cooldown on the target of a resurrect to prevent multi-resurrect death griefing. Change the way that resurrect hp are calculated. Attempt to improve the follow lag in groups problem. Make the warrior taunt/intimidate/roar skillsets no longer dependent on user charisma. This is to help handle tanks and players who may intentionally have low charisma. Improve warrior skills feint, bash, knockback, ground strike, cleave, jab, and whirlwind. Dodge practice cost lowered from 8 to 4 practices, and players will be able to dodge a bit better without knowing the skill. The dodge high end/maximum is unchanged. This should help improve survivability at low and mid levels for non-minion classes. The pfile cleaner will now be more aggressive about deleting old pfiles. Specifically, level 1 characters not hooked to an account are deleted after six months of inactivity, level 1 with an account in 12 months, level 12 with an account in 18 months, and level 24 with an account after 24 months. Level 25 and above characters are exempt from the cleaner. As before, characters with more than three total levels per primary level are also exempt, so a level 20 character with 60 total levels will never be deleted. http://bit.ly/1NVmUVC
