So sayeth Melantus 4 minutes ago:

We are thinking within the next 20-30 minutes, barring any unforseen problems.

And a mere 13 minutes after he said so, it's up! Log in and get your name before the name thieves do!

The following changes are being published to the US Lineage Test Server on Thursday, June 13th:

NOTE: This is a list of potential changes for Lineage. There is the possibility that these items will not be published to the US servers as they are listed here, or that they might not be published at all. The changes listed here are still in testing, and are subject to change or removal from the list.

A Scroll of Escape to Hidden Valley or Singing Island will work outside of the New Player areas, but can only be used by players until level 9.
The maximum number of summons and pets a player can control is equivalent to Charisma / 6 (divided by 6). Prince/Princesses and Mages will get one extra, while elves can get an extra two.
A new Summon table is being added.
- Level 28 - Werewolf
- Level 32 - Lizardman
- Level 36 - Ratman
- Level 40 - Bugbear
- Level 44 - Skeleton Guard
- Level 48 - King Bugbear
- Level 52 - Ettin
The Teleporter NPCs in the New Player areas will teleport players of every level out of the region.
Fafurion spawn is being reactivated.
Stats of boss-type monsters and dragons are being increased.
Added a new spell named “Greater Haste”. Greater Haste Spellbooks are now dropped by various creatures.
Added the Potion of Mana Regeneration. It increases mana regeneration in proportion to WIS.
Dragon Scales will now spawn at rare instances throughout a wide range of locations.
New player areas have been redesigned.
Added in new player dungeons and items.
Added in the new Class system, which contains the following:
- Knight: Additional +1 “To Hit” for every 3 levels of the character Damage +1 for every 10 levels of the character
- Elves: Additional +1 “To Hit” for every 5 levels of the character Bow-only damage +1 for every 10 levels of the character Base MR is 25 from the start of level 1
- Mages: Base MR is 15 from the start of level 1
- Prince/Princess: Additional +1 “To Hit” for every 5 levels of the character Base MR is 10 at level 1
INT can affect the amount of MP required for casting spells. Higher INT can reduce mana consumption. The amount of MP reduced will also be affected by the level of the spell, in addition to the caster’s INT.
AC changes to Elves, Mages, and Princes/Princesses are such that these classes will take slightly more damage then before. Less damage will be relieved by their AC. Knights are unaffected.
Kurtz returns to Aden.
Staff of Mana has been changed to a reduced “To Hit” amount, and it’s mana draw ability has been reduced slightly.
Giant Ant Queen damage is reduced.

[note from LC] Please send us any screenshots (JPG preferable, TGA is fine though) you get with the new drops/new monsters including your opinions on their frequency. :)
