The new update brough some fixes and fixed globals. If
you check you will see we have nearly doubled the arcane
spells. The description of each new arcane is listed in
that file. The new arcanes are Lich specific and will
require a Necronomicon to cast.

*Run Flag - Run flag was crashing us, removed for now
*OP Items - Several OP items owners now have smelly pots instead
*Arcane   - New set of Arcanes for Liches!

Happy 21st Birthday Waterdeep.

This year we have some big changes!

June has been a very productive month.

I want to extend a big THANK YOU to Finder

and Azuth for all the hard work they have put in

learning and building some long overdue updates.

Finder has been helping with the area expansion project.

Both mobs have much better clues and new features.

[ 70] Duerra: Zanatose at the top of the tower

The Necromaner Zanatose has climbed the tower in FoD.
His power is nearly ubeatable and his magic destructive.
Would you dare climb the tower and take his head?

It was discussed recently that there will be a new eq-buyback program launching soon so that players can make use of older or less used items obtained in Runs. Below is the list from Jergal with the help of the builder team.
