- New area: the Elemental Planes! The four base elemental planes (Air, Earth, Fire, and Water) can now be accessed. Each plane has three layers: Shallow, Middle, and Deep. The Shallow layer of each plane is for characters around level 45; the Middle layer for characters around level 50, and the Deep layer for characters around level 55. Like the Feywild, these areas have scaling encounters, drop loot, and no plot. These areas may be accessed by using a Gem of Planar Travel in the location where it is normally used.
- Two new survival mechanisms have been added: Passwall and Firewalk. Rings granting these survival mechanisms can be found in the pre-LL world. A few subraces have gained these survival mechanisms as well. Borian has more information on where to get the rings, and will also exchange them for rare 35 weapons as with the levitation and water breathing rings.
-- The quest to earn the Ring of Firewalking is capped at level 20.
-- The quest to earn the Ring of Passwall is capped at level 25.
- We recommend you run the HGE or CEP updater and be sure to update to the latest CEP revision for the best visual experience and performance in the Elemental Planes. If you run HG Enhanced, you will need to update or you will see 'Bad Strref' on the Rings of Firewalking. This is harmless.
- Creatures in the Feywild may now drop alchemical ingredients which can be used by the Alchemist to brew potions. In addition to the ingredients, the Alchemist requires a modest payment in gold for each potion made, which can be decreased by Appraise skill. In addition, the price is discounted when brewing larger stacks of ingredients.
- Harper Scouts can now craft 10-packs of potions in No PVP areas.
- New SIMTools command: !alarm. This allows you to set timers to deliver a message to yourself.
- New SIMTools command: !list autocast. This will list the spells in your autocaster.
- Shadow Shield's negative immunity no longer stacks with Negative Energy Protection.
- Bug, exploit, and documentation fixes.
