Patch 1.5 and 1.5DD Notes

Patch 1.5 Notes:
**Update** Scheduled release date is Friday December 23rd, 2011! (after server reboot)

So you're bored with the same old same old? Well don't worry, we knew it was going to happen. We have been extremely busy prepping material for a new content patch, slated for release right around Christmas time. This content patch is going to add some very interesting things. Read below to find out more!

1. Underground City: Gomzul-Our famous Brit Archeologist, Jonesy Ford, has uncovered the entrance to an ancient underground city underneath the southern wall of Luna. This ancient city is home to what remains of a magic-weilding race of Gargoyles. Jonesy has set up a small camp in the southern part of the town, you'll want to visit him as soon as you get the chance.

2. Indiana Jones Quests: Raiders of the Lost Ark, and The Temple of Doom-Two new questlines will be added pertaining to Raiders of the Lost Ark, and the Temple of Doom. Along with new locations, dungeons and various bad guys, Jonesy will set you off on a whirlwind adventure! **Update** We have now added The Last Crusade questline to complete the trilogy!

3. Advanced Quest Points-You will all be happy to know that ALL the new questlines are structured around the Quest Points system! We introduced this system during Halloween in the Necro Dungeon and have taken things a step further. When you acquire a new questbook, additional information will be added to the Journal tab at the top when you double click the book. Some quests will auto-complete and give you a reward immediately without returning to the quest giver. If you see a small reward window in the bottom right corner of the quest book window, the quest will auto-complete once all objectives have been accomplished.We ask that you not mark recall locations inside the new areas as you might miss a step in your quest because you recalled in.

4. Exciting new locations-Several new dungeons have been added in the spirit of the movies. German soldiers aboard German ships, a pyramid full of snakes, an ancient dungeon buried in a hillside, the Temple of Doom dungeon, **Update** Mysterious Library entrance, Grail temple, and yes, even a Sea Plane!!

5. New Quest Rewards: The Ark of the Covenent (gives you an intel bonus when you activate it), The Staff Medallion (a necklace that gives some nice casting benefits), Sankara Stones (when activated, you will receive Strength, Intelligence, and Dexterity bonus of 25 each for 10 minutes), plus lots more!

6. **Update** New Hues-We've added 62 new hues! Range: 1482-1499 and 1554-1599

In order to prepare for this patch, please make sure your client is at least running version 7.0.12.1, otherwise you won't be able to see quite a few things.
