The length of the downtime is unrelated to the patch itself.

The changes:

• Players should now be able to complete the Paragon Weapon steps.
• Healing in combat mode now has a difficulty modifier of 1.1, down from 1.3.
• Alternate currency promissory notes are now tradeable.
• Landscape trees are now in full bloom.

Small Changes link
I am preparing a patch to fix the problem with the 33rd level of Paragon weapons. Since I have to patch, I am planning on spending some extra time to add in a few small tweaks. I want to do the following:

• Fix the 33rd Paragon weapon quest.
• Reduce the difficulty of healing in combat mode. It is currently a multiplier of 1.3 on Difficulty, I am thinking a 1.1.
• Promissory Note for Alt Currency will be Tradeable.
• Trees will be returned to their full summer glory.
• I will look into another Bonus XP weekend.
• I will look into the possibility of live events at least for the largest servers.
• The Gauntlet 20 hour timer is there to reduce the chance of people hogging the Gauntlet.
• I will look into the design intent of the creatures in the Gauntlet that are going invulnerable.
