Update Notes - February 1st, 2012

[Torgar]

To help be a little more specific on class changes, what I found were the following:

Arcane Archer- No longer elf/half-elf only. Open to all races. No other changes

Arcane Scholar of Candlekeep- Changed to "Hand of Mundus", wizard only, and obviously must be in the hands of mundus faction. Mechanically no changes.

Dwarven Defender- Changed to "Stalwart Defender", no longer dwarf only. Open to all races. No mechanical changes beyond this.

Eldritch Knight- Arcane armor proficiency feat prereq's removed, no other mechanical changes.

Frenzied Berserker- Barbarain levels no longer a prereq. Class mechanics and other prereqs remain the same.

If anyone knows of or finds out any of the other changes, it would be awesome if those got posted on this thread. Would greatly appreciate it.

What Dragor said.

I forgot to say this in my earlier post, but thanks for the hard work staff!
You guys are teh cool.

Beyond my continued disapointment that CE is still a prereq for EK, I have to throw out major kudos for this 'teaser' release as it has made me hungry for things to come in the future. You guys continue to do marvelous work and take way to much negative criticism for it.

It has not, but we would very much appreciate anyone who takes the time to do so.

Xalbrus and I will of course be working on this as we can. Anyone else that wants to help us are also welcome. There is a lot of work that can be done on the wiki besides just this updates information, so please be patient for it to get done.

I assume rebuked undead will be vulnerable to crits though?

Sounds like yet-to-be rebuked undead will be vulnerable to crits regardless, unless you're asking about vampire PCs?
Because really, once you have them stunlocked with divine justice, it doesn't matter.
