El Patron now disengages from you if you jump into the water or attempt to leave the area
Using the mine shaft elevator now has a sound effect associated with it
Crazy Ned no longer walks around at night
Teleporting to a player in Raven's Cove Jail or any of the ghosts' houses no longer crashes the game
Fixed a crash when catching a fish during Double Rep weekends
Launching a ship from Port Royal or any of the any other major islands at night causes only the sailing music to play

Fixed more potions minigame crashes
Fixed various collision and texture issues on Raven's Cove Island

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

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.

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!

Same here! Luckily we can teleport without sailing now, eh?

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?
