Patch Notes 12.9.08
Combined Powers

* Fixed issue when an attack power was in animation, you were unable to
turn off a toggle. The fix now allows for all toggles to be turned off
except costume changing powers.
* Dark Armor/Soul Transfer: This power's stun effect now correctly has 2
second duration in a PvP zone instead of 10 seconds.
* Temporary toggle powers with no offensive effects should now suppress
instead of being de-toggled.

Leveling Pacts

* Experience messaging has been fixed so that players are told the
correct amount of experience they have earned from their group, and are
reminded that the amount mentioned will be split by their group.
* Incorrect "Wait for your pact to catch up..." error messages have been
fixed. You should now only get these messages when you are out of sync due
to starting the pact with different amounts of experience.
* Occasional bug where extra experience is awarded during map transfers
has been fixed.

Invention

* Fixed a bug that caused the +recharge components from Recharge
Intensive Pet enhancements to carry over to the pet attack speed. These
enhancement sets are designed to speed up the power's recharge time, not the
pets' attacks.

User Interface

* Fixed an issue where help files were not displayed in French or German
languages. (EU NOTE ONLY - NOT FOR NORTH AMERICA)
* Fixed a localization issue with the Researcher and Agile badges (EU
NOTE ONLY - NOT FOR NORTH AMERICA)

leader of a team that allows you to pick the current active mission.

Slow and Taunt Duration SO enhancements from the Merit Vendors.

were unable to move while editing their base.(EU NOTE ONLY - NOT FOR NORTH
AMERICA)

City of Heroes Tasks

* Fixed issue where players could cause Lord Recluse to get stuck behind
the tower during Statesman's Task Force mission.

ability to enhance knockback powers, this puts it in line with the hero
equivalent Vanguard Medal accolade power.
