Patch notes

tldr;
NPCs will now respect their authored threat ranges so the full room will not aggro a player on entering the dungeon.

Is there some list about what these threat ranges are? Or will frigs very far away never agress you. Just like it happened pre patch. I believe it to be much more 'natural' when everything attacks you. I mean you are a threat by any means.

I believe agro distance will be the same as before the patch so you can just look on eve survival and check it for specific mission you are interested in.

Ofc knowing ccp, it might be completely different so I dont suggest testing it with anything but properly tanked ship.Lol

Imagine the troll level if this was a "typo" in the patch notes and someone goes into Worlds Collide in their brand new Tengu and gets vaporized.

OMG!? Don't tell me they are nerfing the missions!

Screw you wow noobs, half the time you guys whine about this game being to easy, the other half about it being to hard, STFU and HTFU.

Please change the topic to Read patch notes, and start whining.

I would agree with you normally that having the missions harder would be okay. Thing is this was and UNINTENTIONAL bug. Therefore they fixed it. If they want missions to be harder they need to do a lot more then just make everything attack and e-war from the word go. Because that's not a challenge, to most that's suicide.

I did Serpentis The Assault. Only got half the room to agro on me in the first room. So at least this mission now works.

Confirming aggro bug fixed...did worlds collide and didn't melt. TD rats also miss cycles like usual now. Not sure about other ewar, as I don't get offered serpentis/gurista missions that often.

"Tomahawks?"

"Trouble is, those things cost like a million and a half each."

Not sure about missions but Sansha NPCs no longer perma-run their TDs.
There seems to still be issues though, first that when they doing it sometimes you still remain under the effects of it, second that there seems to be no stacking penalty for NPCs so two or more will cripple a BS to almost worthless levels.
