Hi All,

The W/P/S Service Window has now been updated to be a static two month period rather than a sliding item by item window. Service counts will reset on the first service for that item within each two month window regardless of the timing of any previous services.

For clarity, windows are:
Jan/Feb, March/April, May/June, July/August, Sept/Oct, Nov/Dec

Good change.

Sweet is the sound of the pouring rain,
And the stream that falls from the hill to plain.
Better than rain or rippling brook,
Is a mug of beer inside this Took.

This is a great change, Zissu. Definitely clears up confusion on timing. Thanks a bunch!

I think the other way made more sense from a “control this (particular) item’s progress” viewpoint.

This one involves a LOT less thinking (on the part of the player) and bookkeeping (on the part of the game system).

.

Overall, probably a net gain, when you factor out the frustration from players at merchants.

Silly question, perhaps, but…

Can shields be weighted, either with damage or crit, and have them come into effect? (Like with CMans and such.)

Already got flares and spikes and whatnot….

It does nothing, weapons only.

No padding either.
