Patch Notes 10.07.2009

General Changes

• Quitting a game early (near the start of the match) will now cause your personal DoW contribution score to be penalized by -1.
• Wars now last for 10 battles rather than 5
• Your contribution of DoW points is now scaled based on the time the match took. Matches that last ten minutes or less now give 4 points for a win and 1 point for a loss, while games that last an hour give 12 points for a win and 3 points for a loss.

Bug Fixes

• Wicked Aura should no longer show visual effects and combat log messages when a unit moves in and out of range.
