I thought this was on purpose, but i guess it isn't! at least they drop loot now.

im glad that there making the bosses that never dropped loot before start now =D

I also thought that that was intentional.

I'm fairly surprised at the amount of bugs they've fixed, and only in the first week.

I have my doubts of when this update will be released, but I'm crossing my fingers that it's next week. Both updates to test this week have had tons of bug fixes, and I hardly ever experienced bugs on Raven's Cove except for crashing once in a while in certain areas.

I wonder if Devil root will have as much populariety as DH once people get back to the normal looting again?

It looks like it's ready for release.. tomorrow I suppose, because tomorrow is one week since it came on test. They really look like they're hurrying up this update, either for the time they wasted previously or for a big continuation of the Cove's story

I doubt it, with the fact that ye can now be knocked down. But I remember that Devil Root was the place that I went to whenever I wanted to be alone or just to level. :degen:

Darkheart, Timothy, Neban, and Remington could be heard uttering a great sigh of relief as the other members of the boss gang now get slammed more!

Igor wonders
 

Igor say glad for this update. Igor think it should make it possible for the Greybeards to get back on test :D

That dig thing was driving me NUTS! I'm glad they fixed that. Lil' Eliza was so STUCK!

I think Malicioso already dropped loot... I remember that when I was leveling Emily, I used him for shooting and swords... isn't that the scorpion boss in Wildwoods on Tortuga?

Sweet! Now I can raid Devil Root for loot! Bye bye darkhart! Hello Rooty! Maybe this update will be on live next week?
