    Game Update notes may 27th Icon1 A note about traders and banks

    We are fixing the traders and the banks but some exploits would still be possible with the version we have now. We know how important it is to have traders and banks back in the game but the system must work absolutely correct before we put them live again. The possible exploits that would result when this is not ensured would lead to much bigger issues for all players.

    Thank you for your understanding.

    I think the most important one I saw was the apprenticeship XP. My understanding is you will still get XP according to your real level. Correct? I hope so because if not I don't know that I'll ever accept it again. It's bad wiping out half a zone of mobs and getting 1XP per kill.

    I'm also happy to see that it appears they've fixed the Fields of the Dead. With any luck I wont have to mute my sound every time I pass through there.

    Servers coming down again in 10 minutes for another update

    Either they're finally fixing traders, or they broke something in this patch critically.
