Greetings Adventurers!

This weeks patch brings the next phase of class improvements to the game, a new test area and some bug fixes.

[h2]New Combat Testing Area[/h2]

We have heard from the players that they would like an area in game to test out abilities, rotations and setups outside of standard dungeon combat. Players can find a new area in the latest patch in the Crypt of Horrors dungeon to do this. The camp is located outside the dungeon gates just down the road from where players load in to the dungeon. There is a single target dummy for solo testing and a few target dummies in close proximity for larger group testing. We intend to possibly add more things to this area in the future.

[h2]Class Improvements[/h2]

We will begin our next phase of improving the classes over the coming months. Below is a list of the initial changes.
