Release Notes Book 14 Patch 1

We have addressed an issue in Book 14: Chapter 1, where 2 or more players using the same chest at the same time caused the door to the lower section of the instance to open early.
The White-hand Half-orcs and Dunlendings in the Book 14: Chapter 6 instance will no longer become NPCs if they happen to fall out of combat.
We have taken steps to address some of the issues reported with the Helchgam fight in Carn Dûm. Helchgam will now be able to use more of his attacks while you are hidden behind pillars in the room, while the room's reset has been modified to be more thorough and reset more elements in the room.
We have reduced the retry timer on the Battle quests in Angmar from 6.5 days to 2.5 days. Characters who have already completed those quests and are waiting for their timer to expire will have to wait the full 6.5 days. However, the next time that character completes the quest, they will only have to wait the new 2.5 day retry timer.
- Due to the reduction in the retry timer on the Battle quests, we have slightly increased the costs of the rewards purchased through the quests. For instance, an item that previously cost 1 Rhunendin ribbon, 1 Rammas Deluon ribbon and 3 silver coins now costs 1 Rhunendin ribbon, 2 Rammas Deluon ribbons and 3 silver coins.

We have updated the following deeds to address issues players have experienced with them. Due to the changes made to these deeds, any progress made in uncompleted deeds will be lost (please accept our apologies!). To restart these deeds, simply kill monsters in the areas targeted by these deeds and they should restart. Note that if your character has completed these deeds, your character will not be affected by this change.
- Markers of the Sunken City
- Lore of the Enemy
- Marching Orders
- Plans of War
