It looks like it will make scavenging in the Glow become reality, and it will give Radaway/X a use. Of course, I hope they are worth-while items, not any low-tier stuff. It should be very worth-while to have to go all the way to Glow.

That sounds promising. I can't wait to try it :)

Yay!

I still don't see the point of boosting all weapon types. Seems like it just makes combat shorter.

Edit: I'm not getting any music on my faction base map.

LagMaster:

Finally something for audio geeks like me. :P

Really good changes. Can't wait to see what our Writers have made for new quests. :)

Can't say I like the weapon buffs (instead of buffing armors a bit) but heh.
