The 'abreqs' command now works for all races, listing the general requirements for all abilities within the job. It remains unchanged for Ranzomizers.


Stealing and stealing

The thief ability Mug now carries your weapon element.
Also, it now treats your weapon as an agility-based weapon and thus always does agility-based damage regardless of what type of weapon you have equipped. It always said it worked like that, but actually didn't due to a bug.
Additionally, a new medium-tier Tantalus mission has been added to Baku. This should provide some more variety in the repeatable missions for people collecting leads. The new mission is in Gold City.


*Sigh* Times are tough.

The following monsters were beefed up and are now "tough monsters", a category of monsters that have increased HP compared to the rest of the enemies in their areas, but also provide increased rewards:
Hell House (FF7), Zuu (FF5), Nikeah Guard (FF6), Telstar (FF6), Cave Ape (CT), Fossil Ape (CT), Megasaur (CT), Terrasaur (CT), Gigasaur (CT)
You can tell if a monster is a tough monster with the consider command or the bestiary command, in case you didn't know. Note that the Zuu (FF7) and the Winged Ape (CT) were already tough monsters. I wonder if anyone even knew you can fight a Telstar in the Imperial Camp near Doma.
The distribution of monsters in some of these zones, especially the Tyrano Fort and Giant's Claw, has been adjusted to compensate, so that encountering multiple tough monsters in the same room is rare. The total number of mobs in each room hasn't changed, but some Terrasaurs and Cave Apes have been changed to Black Reptites or Volcanos, for example.
Additionally, the XP and gold rewards from Yeowza!, Footsteps, Follow!, Give Dactyl, and Unnatural Selection have been increased to match the higher difficulty of these monsters. The reward from Cultists In Our Midst has not been changed, since honestly the guards having more HP probably makes the mission easier, not harder (given that the goal is to avoid killing them).


Death Is Under New Management

A couple of changes have been made to how player deaths work.
First, I fixed a bug that was allowing players to go below -100% when they die. It should now properly prevent you from going below -100% when you die. However, you can still go below -100% via teleport XP loss.
Second, I adjusted XP loss so you lose half as much XP from dying/reincarnating when at or below -50% XPTNL.

Phoenix Egg, the item that grants you a one-time reraise, is now available in the Jidoor Auction for a (relatively) low cost.
