Tabula Rasa™ Patch Notes
Patch Notes 12/5 - Test Server
December 05, 2007


The Centaurus Server data will remain on test this week. We are giving players patches earlier in the development process now - so this patch will NOT be going to the live servers. We will have another patch going on the test server in the near future that will be closer to a 'live' version. Any and all feedback and /bugs you can provide are much appreciated!

Every character has had their skill points and attribute points reset so that they may make adjustments to these skills based on game changes.

Added Personal Wormholes as Consumable Items. You can purchase them at Medical Vendors.

Added a ton of tweaks to Pravus audio.

Updated the range for auto-looting to make it a bit easier to auto-loot some creatures.
