ok, couple of us tested a few updates right off. the faction defense worked pretty good and i got xp. way cool. the merchants were unkillable however pepin and his lord flunky almost got their heads smashed in until i stopped and left b4 that happened. haven't had a chance to check AoE spells. still no ferryman at falme or ns so i am assuming not opened yet.

. bioware might have fixed something as i was hiding and gaurds walked right thru me and i never attacked them for AoO. nice job devs. one question on faction defending is will u get drops and xp for defending an ally's faction? say from MA and defending SL?

Try and see on the question. I'll see about getting to Sunken and Frostdale tomorrow.

AoO is a Bio fix. Check the patch notes, I like them all except for the ubering up of damage shields.

Gah, I just went in to check out whirlwind...and there's now a new bug.

Previously, you could stack whirlwinds, so that you'd do 2 or 3 in succession. 1.65 tried to fix a bug where, when I had completed my whirlwinds, I would stand there flat-footed, and not re-enter combat. Alright, so they fixed that bug. BUT by doing so, they created another bug

Now, I can't stack whirlwinds. As soon as a whirlwind finishes I will resume combat with a single target - regardless of wether or not I had more whirlwinds queued up or not. I have to manually cancel the combat by clicking on the icon in the upper left, and then select to do another whirlwind.

I'd rather be flat-footed

downside to the whirlwind stack as opposed to the pancake stack is that my character continued to whirl when there was no one left to dance with especially when i walked away to grab a drink

I came back and found him practising his Capoeira dancing alone

Perhaps there is someway of automatically cancelling the stack when there is no hostile within threat range?

not sure about this one. watched a duel between to ppl and the lose was hostile to me. i couldn't raise when he was hostile, but when i made him neutral it worked just fine. will it work like this with opposing factions? if so it won't stop abuse of it.

Just put WW on one of the F keys and keep tapping it, it should work.
