hey, wondering if someone knows the answer to these.

When was mixing dye stopped so you could no longer get Vial of Dye (Mixed)?

When did 10/10 staves stop dropping as loot? i know you can get canthan staves so im guessing its somewhere between Factions launch and Nightfall launch?

When did the Major runes get updated so they was no longer -50 but -35?

and finally when was the update that made all minor runes blue all major runes purple and all superior runes gold?

cookies to whoevers got the answers and hopefully evidence to support their claims

at NF release dyes changed so then those mixed dyes were removed.
10/10 Staves havent dropd since nf release. i think maybe 1-2weeks before it if im not completely wrong.
Major runes got updated around factions release
and other rune update was at same

If i remember right. ofc someone searches wiki notes for em soon i guess

quite dissapointing thread title .... i thought

does bring back some memories. Reminds of when chests were in different locations and didn't require keys.

...and nothing of value was lost.

I guess we know the term "nerf" is overused when people use it as a synonym for "change".

I spent an eternity running outta Port Sledge for the chests the East of there. Was gutted the day they introduced keys.

Still got a major vigor blue rune in storage somewhere from those chests.

I just remember when you were with a group for chest runs and the chest would be either all gold items or all purple, so one person would go and test it out. Then they would get a grape! Good times

I used to get gold items and actual platinum from nightfall chests. Now I just get annoying purple items and crappy gold.

How about when we had to spend "refund points" to change our attributes around?

Ahh, yes, some changes are actually very good.

There was also the rockmolder change. I threw mine out once they retroactively changed it

Dye remover, according to this Dye Remover up until October 2006 was in the circle green bottle, before it became vial of dye (grey).

When did the Vial of Dye (grey) with the grey icon come into effect?

i have some of the old Vial of Dye (grey) with the red icons, just wondering how old they are

also

When did 10% sundering get buffed to 20% on mods

cheers
