Hey Everybody,
Here are the long awaited details of Game Update #2. There is variety of good stuff in there as well as a couple of items that are sure to be controversial. The Update addresses several performance issues, some long needed polish, new features and some changes to help the economy.
The Update will be pushed to test very soon. We need as many people as we can to bang on it while it`s on test. QA has done a great job finding most of the major bugs, but we really need the players to put Update 2 through its paces before we can push it to Live.
We will make a Game Update 2 post where the changes can be discussed and Dev`s will be responding to.

Items that contain an associated ability should now display the description of that ability, if a description is available.
Items with offensive and defensive ¡°Rating¡± modifiers, in addition to the actual Rating, will now display a percentage for that specific modifier against an equal level NPC.This addition will add some clarity to the previously confusing Rating system.
Items will now display the actual percentage that an attached ¡°Chance on Hit:¡± proc will activate.
14. Scrolling Combat Text
- You can now switch on scrolling combat text in your Settings panel.
- The Scrolling combat text will speed up and slow down depending on how fast text enters the world.
- New Slider bar to toggle transparency of the scrolling combat text. This will allow players to choose settings where the text is less obtrusive, while other players can chose a setting so they can achieve maximum visibility of the text.
- New option to use multiple layers of scrolling combat text (in order to place crits and more important text on one layer and less important information in another layer with a more transparent look).
- New option to use multi-column scrolling combat text.This will slow down the necessary movement of text (since more text can sit on one line). This setting will be very useful in raids when there is a lot of damage spam.
