I only hope that they mean they'll be less rare now and not more rare...

You never know with Sony.

Yeah, found out from Llu (the Cleric CC) who replied to me over at the EQClerics.org boards.

Anyone else find it really fucked up that Prathun didn't include his profuse usage of the nerf bat on spells in the patch notes this go-round? Lucky for SK's, he stated that he was going to reverse the linked recast timers on their Lifetaps, but what about the other classes? Fun stuff, indeed.

Why even have "patch notes" if all major changes aren't noted?
