Headlines!
--------------------
- You now have the ability to remove your own surname!
- All characters will regen HP faster when sitting!
- /rewind is back and ready for action!
Surnames
--------------------
You can now use the /surname command to remove your own surname and add a new one. Please remember to read the naming policy as listed on EQlive.station.sony.com as it applies to both first names and surnames. You will still need to ask for CS assistance if you wish to have a name with double capitals or special characters. Please note that this command can only be used to remove or change your surname once per week.
HP Regen
---------------------
- All characters should now regenerate HP faster when sitting. The longer you sit, the faster you regenerate!
- You will not receive increased regen while under the effects of a DOT or while feigned.
- You can now bandage yourself up to 70% of your HP. Folks with the appropriate AA abilities can bandage above 70%.
- You can now bandage while sitting.
/rewind
----------------------
/rewind is back and should help if you find yourself stuck. This is not an automatic rewind, you will have to execute the command. We are continuing to work on other collision issues and hope to no longer need /rewind in the near future. This command is only able to be used once every 30 seconds, and in order to make use of it, your character will need to be stationary for at least 30 seconds.

This is just a countermeasure to every other game being much more liberal on names. It usually takes another game for EQ to do anything.Surnames

As a troll, I now regen slower than before, went from 34 down to 30. So I'm guessing I regen at a rate an average race does. Hopefully, this is just an oversight because I'd be pissed about throwing 25% xp in the crapper solely for that regen improvement.Sargeras wrote: HP Regen

Anyone should be able to heal completely in 10 minutes. Scale it. Have crappy regen the first 5 minutes so regen AAs, equipment, race have an impact and then increase it dramatically over the next 5 minutes.Runcade wrote:everyones regen dropped 4hp. when you sit for the first min you are 4 under normal. the second minute is 4 hp over so if you sit for 2 full minutes you break even
Sitting on your ass is lame.
