Hellgate: London v1.1 Patch Notes Announced

Following the release of Hellgate: London’s Stonehenge update, Flagship Studios has released a list of fixes that we can expect in the game’s upcoming v1.1 update.

General

• All Guardians, Evokers, and characters on Subscription accounts will have one Skill Retrainer when logging in after this patch goes live.
• The timer and quest requirement have been removed from the mini-game.
• Guild Heralds can now be sold back to merchants for full price.
• Fixed a bug where chat entry became visible in the Character Select screen after logging in and then logging out of the game.
• Fixed a crash bug associated with exiting out of the Character Creation menu.
• Players that had beaten Normal mode with a character but then were unable to access Elite mode (and Hardcore mode for subscribers) with a new character should now have access to that game mode by logging in once with the character that completed Normal Mode.
• Fixed a bug which caused audio and sound effects to sometimes stop playing.

Monsters

• Errgoth now does less damage.
• The Beast of Abbadon, Occulis, and Sydonai can no longer be exploited via re-spawn farming.
• Stalkers and Burning Fiends are now part of the Beast caste (to balance a disparity of Essence drop rates between castes).

User Interface

• Offline friends are now properly displayed in the Friends List.
• The (Player Requests) confirmation buttons have been reordered to [accept] [decline] [ignore].
• Skill Retrainers now have a confirmation dialogue to help players from accidentally using them.

Items

• Armors with the (minion damage bonus) affix now work for the Engineer.
• Restorative injectors are usable when either health or power is below the player’s maximum since they can help recover both health and power for the user.

Skills

• Increasing ranks of Drain Power now work properly at all power ranges.

Stonehenge Bug Fixes

• Players may now Recall or Party Portal out of the Hell’s Heart level.
• Party Portal limitations have been removed from the Stonehenge levels.
• Stonehenge now appears as a destination on the Station Transit Terminal.
• Stonehenge weapons can now have Mod slots.
• The stash in Stonehenge now properly detects collision.
• Fixed a blocking bug in the Essence Caves which prevented a portal into that specific Caste General’s Lair from opening.
• Essence drop chance increased from 15% to 20%.
• Fixed rare cases where Essence Caves were not connected to the next level.
• Fixed bad pathing around the Stonehenge wilderness huts.
• Fixed a bug causing additional Skill Retrainers to spawn when they shouldn’t have. Duplicate Skill Retrainers should now be removed.
