We've added a new status effect to the game, the confuse effect.
We've already added it to various parts of the MUD, so you might see
it in play if you're lucky!

A new boomerang has been added to Hades' Synthesis Shop. Players
that have completed the Dreams of the Fayth mission can obtain one
of the ingredients in the fame shop.
Harle

A new superboss, Harle, has been added to UOSSMUD! Harle can be
found at the pyramid in Medina Village, 1000 AD, in Chrono Trigger.
She's recommended for a party of a few players around level 85. If
you're not at least level 50, you can't find her at all.
Unlike most other superbosses, Harle doesn't keep giving her rewards
infinitely. You will obtain them in a random order, but you'll only
get each possible reward once. If you fight her with a party, every
player receives a reward. Additionally, each time you kill her
until she runs out of unique rewards, you also get a large amount of
experience points and gold. After you've obtained all eight rewards
from Harle, she stops giving this bonus XP and gold.
For more information, type "help harle". Good luck!

Medina Village rooms and exits

The layout of Medina Village now actually matches its layout in
Chrono Trigger. This means that almost every exit was changed, so
your speedwalks to Melchior's Hut, Heckran's Cave, and Culex are
probably broken and need to be fixed. The room descriptions in
Medina were also rewritten to be less terrible, and no longer tell
you how you feel about monsters that you already killed.
FF7 bracelets with vanilla effects

FF7 had three bracelets in the 25 to 45 level range with no special
effects: Carbon Bangle, Silver Armlet, and Gold Armlet. One would
expect these items to have higher defensive stats than specialized
equipment with bonus effects. Um, they didn't.
The Carbon Bangle and Gold Armlet have both received increased
physical defense, so they should now be the best physically
defensive equipment available at their levels and for a good 10-20
levels thereafter.
The Silver Armlet was given a special effect based on one of its
properties in FF4. It now grants Undead Slayer to the wielder,
causing all of your auto-attacks to be critical hits against
undead-type enemies (the undead creature type, not enemies that
you've cast the Zombie spell on). I realize that's not a huge deal
on a wis/will bracelet, but hopefully it's more interesting than
nothing, and can be used by high level characters or unusual builds.
