    "Feigned Minion AA fixed."
    What was broken with it, and what changed? I never used it on AK, so wasn't sure about expected behavior. (Mostly used it to drop agro and suspend a pet before it would die to AEs here)

    It wasn't turning off attack so the pet would just re-attack immediately after use. It wasn't emoting on fail. It had no timer so it could be spammed.

    What's a streetsweeper NPC?

    detailed Discussion in discord general channel stayed at 920 am CST.
    NPCs who pick up items you drop.

    in vanilla zones, there were npcs that would pick up items if they walked past them. They usually do some kind of emote. I think the most commonly seen example would be nillipuss when he picks up jumjum off the ground:

    Nillipuss says, 'Look what I've found! What a great find! It used to be yours, but now it is mine!'

    This patch changed the damage on Staff of Transcendence from 54 to 53 - intentional?

    Yeah. It was intentional. Not that big of a change really.

    For a L65, 305 Str, 175 Worn ATK, 325 Spell ATK, 100% Haste, 25% Overhaste Monk vs. Aten this drops overall dps by ~3. Dual wield is now higher depending on weapon combos and mob resists, with Shinai of the Ancients/Hammer of Time Weaver now ~4 dps higher than the nerfed Staff of Transcendence.

    okay I see you made your point. I'll "unnerf' the "nerf" Staff of Transcendence.

    It's a small change either way, but I think this is a good call: looking at the history, this item was first added to Lucy in mid-July 2003 and bumped up to 54 damage at the beginning of August. So while I imagine 53 damage is technically AKurate, in reality, on Live, the 53-damage version of the stave existed for two or three weeks and probably only in one or two people's inventories.

    Was this intentional on the Mace of the Ancient?

    Before Patch: L60, max hit 97s, triple attacks, four attack rounds + two special rounds (bash or kick) before despawning, looks like a skeleton holding seru's sword
    Since Patch: L40, max hit 94s, double attacks, six attack rounds + two special rounds (bash or kick) before despawning, looks like a skeleton holding seru's sword

    The Mace of the Ancient pet is now identical to the PoE monk swarm pet except for appearance and the possibility to bash instead of kick.

    Sorry, should have added this too...

    Mace of the Ancient

    Before Patch: hits for 48-97, ~480 dmg per proc on exp mobs, ~350 dmg per proc on raid mobs
    Since Patch: hits for 12-94, ~380 dmg per proc on exp mobs, ~230 dmg per proc on raid mobs

    So overall dps from the pet has dropped significantly.
