Patch 2.7_03

[Tythus 1307]

Even though Vaquxine is on on vacation, Here are some more updates for you!

• Bread no longer has a minimum cooking level; there is a 20% success rate at level 0.
  
• Wooden fishing rods can now be crafted at level 0 fishing.
  
• /showxp will now also toggle the displaying of block place messages, such as iron blocks.
  
• New players now will receive 75 skill credits instead of the original 50 so they may better specialize.
  
• Increased the chances of successfully smelting ore, specifically iron at later levels.
  
• Reworked mining to be on a “tier” system as per suggested by players, certain ores now max out at 100% gather chances are specific levels.
  
• Mobs that die from anything EXCEPT player damage or projectiles will now drop no loot (I.E. from sunlight).
  
• Fixed a bug that was causing EXP orbs to drop.
  
• All EXP orbs are now removed from a chunk whenever that chunk is loaded.
  
• Enchantment tables are no longer right clickable by players, but can be placed by anyone as furniture.
  
• Added a new recipe for string, 2 blocks of wool ontop of each other.
  
• Spiders no longer drop web.
  
• All these new %’s are subject to change, but I think they’re pretty fair now; especially the new mining, blacksmithing, and cooking failure rates.
  

There's also a poll for what happens to mob's when the sun comes out - once decided - the LM's will translate any changes into RP.

Erm, is there a problem with me being thrilled about a particular patch?

Now only Archers can craft Webs/traps using 4 sting and 1 slimeball. So now you'll have to find someone selling them.

I was a little skeptical of the skills update but I'm learning to love it.

Yeah, I'm interested to hear more about it as well.

Another great patch update :D

Why do spiders not drop webs....? P_P

Because recently a new crafting recipe was added, 'Traps' to be used by hunters, i.e Archers. They are pretty much just webs, but should be rp'd as traps. You can read about it here

Can you place them anywhere now?
