Update 39 Release Notes

Here are the Release Notes for Update 39, released on Wednesday, July 18th, 2018.

White Plume Mountain and Other Tales
This new classic dungeon, along with a collection of other tales, is now available in a new Adventure Pack that is Free to VIPs! Includes five new dungeons, including the classic module White Plume Mountain, plus four additional all-new tales of mad Wizards and their works. The five quests are not part of a narrative arc, but instead tie thematically around Wizards run amok. The questgiver for White Plume Mountain can be found in the Eberron Hall of Heroes, near the Against the Slave Lords questgivers, while the questgivers for the other quests can be found outside of the Tower of the Twelve, on the road leading to Meridia.

White Plume Mountain: Level 9 Heroic, 32 Legendary
Search ye far or search ye near

You'll find no trace of the three

Unless you follow instructions clear

For the weapons abide with me.

North past forest, farm and furrow

You must go to the feathered mound

Then down away from the sun you'll burrow

Forget life, forget light, forget sound.

To rescue Wave's Crest, you must do battle

With the Beast in the Boiling Bubble

Crost cavern vast, where chain-links rattle

Lies Whelm's Crest, past water-spouts double.

Blackrazor's Seal yet remains to be won

Underneath inverted ziggurat.

That garnered, think not that you're done

For now you'll find you are caught

I care not, former owners brave

What heroes you seek to hire.

Thought mighty, I'll make each one my slave

Or send them to the fire.

-Your host, Keraptis'
