More work on XP changes. The goal of these changes was to reduce the "rushing" effect where a solo PC would earn lots of XP traveling risk-free with a high-level party to a high-level area. Previously, we'd attempted to fix this by tightening the bell curve around XP gains when killing monsters far away from your level, so you wouldn't get as much XP when killing something well outside your level range. This change had some unintended consequences, so we've reverted it. Instead, XP now drops off steadily as your level gets further away from the highest level member of your party.

The Crossroads is now protected by Kreis Knights instead of Blood Guard, dragonkin, or goblins. We promise this is the last time we will do this for a while.
The Greenvale tower has been rebuilt, and only elves are allowed to use the lifting platform, also called the Elfavator.
Bence’s grave can now be found at the Crossroads. =(
Adds the following new weapon types:
Maul
Falchion
Heavy Mace
Double Scimitar
(various weapons of these types can now be found in stores, drops and /craft for PC crafters.)
Adds the following new placeables to the /placeables store:

Updates us to the latest NWN version.
As above, some new RP zones!
Entering \n in the chat window will now add a linebreak to your post.
New chat commands for advanced summon/NPC control, for all you player-eventers out there.
/comnpc or /commandnpc - Allows you to select a target creature. The target must be a released summon NPC you created. The NPC will move to the target location, attack the specified PC/placeable, or open the target door. /tktnpc or /tktargetnpc - Allows you to select a target and speak through them. This works like /tknpc, except you can select the target rather than simply using the nearest one. /comsum or /comsummon or /commandsummon - Command your summon to move to the target location, attack the specified creature/placeable, or open the target door. /comfam or /comfamiliar or /commandfamiliar - Command your familiar to move to the target location, attack the specified creature/placeable, or open the target door. /comhench or /commandhench - Command your henchman to move to the target location, attack the specified creature/placeable, or open the target door. /compet or /comcomp or /comcompanion or /commandpet or /commandcompanion or /commandcomp - Command your animal companion to move to the target location, attack the specified creature/placeable, or open the target door.
Some notes on these: -Released summons cannot be made to attack NPCs. -Released summons that leave the area they were created in will be automatically destroyed. -Like with /placeables, released summons are intended for building one-off events/scenes for others. See our guidelines on released summons and their IC relevance. In general, released summons are not intended to be used for massed personal minions/armies/guard forces, and being able to move them does not change this. As always, we ask players to be respectful of the game world and each other when using these tools.

In addition to the above:

-Darkfire and Hammer of the Gods scrolls are now sold in a pair of cleric-themed stores as a QoL update for PC crafters.
