*** Highlights ***

- Made improvements to the spam reporting system. See the UI section for details.
- Made improvements to handling items in equipment sets when changing personas. See the Items section for details.


*** Items ***

- Christine in the neighborhood will give wizards and druids the appropriate teleport spells if they give her one of their anchors. She will return the anchor as well.
- Equipment sets now respect class restrictions when saving. This should make management of mismatched class augmentations easier. As a side effect, you will no longer be able to save or load the equipment set of a different class.
- Augments will be handled more reliably when swapping persona equipment sets that have an augment in the same item, but different slots.
- Visage of the Blood Raven should now work in the Stat Illusion slot within the Illusions Key Ring.


*** Spells ***

- Enchanter - Increased the amount of damage added by Edict of Tashan and Roar of Tashan.


*** AA ***

- Autogrant will now only run automatically if one of the following conditions is met:
-- The first time a character logs in after a monthly patch.
-- The first time a persona is swapped to after a monthly patch.
-- Each time a persona gains a new highest level.
-- Each time a character logs in or swaps persona after enabling the autogrant toggle on the Alternate Advancement window.


*** Miscellaneous ***

- Updated /feedback and /bug to open the correct forum version.
- Changing personas now autojoins channels set for the new persona.
- Unclaimed pending reward sets will now attempt to be consumed rather than deleted when a player over the cap of 10 zones or camps.


*** UI ***

- Chat spam reporting enhancements: Reporting "as spam" can now mute reported players imminently if the world's criteria is met. Reporting "as not spam" rescinds your previous spam report and can unmute the reported player if the world's criteria is no longer met. Automatic spam processing supersedes reporting.
- Swarm pets are now included when using the Option to Hide Pets.
- Fixed an issue that caused the character select (and game) window's restored height to be too short and expose the desktop or task bar when transitioning from the server select window.
- Updated the spell gems window to expand vertically if it is oriented vertically, and horizontally if it is oriented horizontally. This should prevent changing personas from adding a second row of spell gems if the window is oriented horizontally.
- The Real Estate Item window will no longer scroll around randomly when adding/removing items.

what is this bug that you speak of
@Whodis @VestalBears

Per the Dev that spoke about this issue, they are actively working on the problem that some are experiencing and it just was not quite ready for Patch Day in July.

What I read on the EQ Forums last night made it sound like it was possibly a Test server or Progression server issue. I have never had the issue they were describing so I never looked into it further and was very tired when I did read about it.

P.S. You can setup your [ingame.cfg] and [zoned.cfg] to have something like this:

1. Save an xTar List with whoever you want on it actively in game and in zone. e.g. RaidTanks
2. Add line in [ingame.cfg] and [zoned.cfg]:
a. /xtarget load RaidTanks
3. I also recommend you create an "Auto" xtarget list where All of the slots are set to "Auto" and save it as "Auto." This way you may create a button in game (I love the Button Master Lua) where you can send a msg to all your toons to reset to "Auto" as nedded.

Let's say you have a saved set of extended targets (example: raid setup for a shaman). That currently gets loaded every time you zone, even if you clear/reset it. You can clear it and maybe just set up one person in it's place and that one person then gets loaded every time you zone. It's irritating.

I have actually been seeing this the last few days. I didnt realize it was a known bug, just figured I wasnt doing somethign correctly. It let me set one of th entries to Auto , but the other one keeps gettign set to a PC I had set for a raid a week ago

Yep, same problem I have, not a huge deal, but still a PITA
 
Sadly I had to wait till servers were back up and I was back home from errands to log in and see what the syntax was for that... otherwise I would have posted it earlier today for the PS update.

You don't need to create a list for this. You can simply have a button that resets everyone's xtarget list to auto - /dga /xtar load auto - and press it whenever you zone.
 
Since last patch mq2mage and mq2enchanter have not loaded. Says that it could not load due to build being set for 6/18/25. Any help would be apreciated

You don't have a current file.

Either you need to check the launcher to ensure you downloaded an updated file - or you need to renew your license so you can download a Updated file
