You might be happy to hear that on the PTS at the moment is a Maid's outfit for wardrobe, complete with feather duster 'weapon'

No sign of a Butler's outfit for male chars, don't think you'd like to see my male Elf wearing the Maid's bundle so luckily i have a female alt char

Easily one of the best changes they've made so far. While it feels kinda awkward after years of bouncing about everywhere, so far it's nice not to accidentally overshoot ledges due to hopping up in the air after a random little bump.

yup, got so use to the "launching effect" that like you said, feels awkward right now.

[Fencers]

It's not a change easy to get used to either. For years, literally, I have accounted for aerial launches while riding through hundreds of mobs.

I was in Eastern Holdings doing some IAs and my usual route of rocky launchpads, cliff drops and inclines was all fucked.

Trion, please do something about the roads/maps.

GENERAL

* The nets for catching the Unstable Artifact Thieves are now running version 2.0 of their planar operating system, resulting in a far more reliable product.
* The Unstable Artifact Thieves should no longer have such a desire to burrow under the terrain.
* The mechanical spider mounts are now quieter when idle, so that our beloved eight-legged friends are less annoying when stationary.
* Applied some more putty to the hole in the universe where chat from other maps could be sneaking in through.


RIFT STORE AND SERVICES

* Rank 70 is no longer required to open Depleted Supply Crates. However, the equipment inside still requires Rank 70 to equip.


CLASSES

MARKSMAN

* Retreat: Now grants immunity to knockback and pull effects while active.


WARRIOR

PARAGON

* Fleet of Foot and Forced March now have a shared cooldown.

VOID KNIGHT
