PTS Patch Notes:

New Quests

Over 70 new quests have been added to the game this build.

New Dungeon

A brand new dungeon has been added for level 75+ players. This dungeon has many new quests, several new types of monsters and an all-new boss! You’ll notice some major improvements to the behaviors of the monsters in this dungeon. Enjoy!

Loot in the new dungeon, especially gold drops, seems to be a bit off. I'm getting a decent bit of yellows, but purples are very rare. As mentioned above, the gold drops are very, very small on a consistent basis.

If anything, the dungeon should have a buffed drop rate as opposed to other zones. 75+, man!

It'll be good incentive for the lower levels to level up, and the higher ups to make use of this zone/boss. Unless fixed, I don't see myself killing anything other than Abaddon for drops.

Lovin' the patch so far, keep up the good work team.

Agree with Ripper the drops do seem to be a lot less. I seem to get a lot more grey/green than I am used to in shadows embrace and embercore. At least in the first few dungeons I have seen very few purples.

King's Coins - I received a stack of 20 KC's for a relic quest. Obviously, this shows that KC's can be stacked up to at least 20 coins. Unfortunately, they only stack this way if you receive them as a reward. I tried to combine a stack of 6 with a stack of 10 and couldn't. Whether the max stack is 10, 20 or whatever, it should be consistent across the board, in my opinion.

It used to be you could add a stack to another. However, one of the recent patches changed how it works and now all it allows is swapping stacks in the inventory, not adding the two together. You have to have a single coin to be able to add to another stack. I've found this "feature" to be extremely annoying as I sometime get multiple coins in my running and have to way to add to a previous stack.

I have found that you can add to a stack as long as the total does not go over 10. you can 6 to 3 or 4 but not 5 it will just swap.

They need to change it so KC stack to 100.The things breed like roaches and take up WAY too much bank space.

i agree right here make them stack much higher then ten, or at leats make it so that by adding 6 and 9 you will get 10 and 5 i have tons of small stcaks that are all jsut the right amount ( msotly 6) that refuses to stack taking up 9 spaces in my bank

Is there more uses for KC for PTS?

not that i know of besides the subtle added items its still just token guys and sam to my knowledge

The quests and duneon are great........ I ahvent met the boss yet I am saving that for the live version......Just as an after thought.I ahve heard of people complaining aobut new monsters.....a suggestion.....when I was in HDOL last sevreal times I came actross the empty armor monsters.. the armor was ther e jsut nothing on the inside...lol. looks like a new monster to me......jsut think of those spitter tanks without anything inside surrounding you.........sounds scary to me... lol
