Most gamers probably already know that patches in the early goings of an MMORPG usually come in two flavors - huge and freaking huge. Considering the last patch for the PC version  (the Xbox 360 version is still in development) of Funcom's Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures fell in the latter category, it was inevitable that some details weren't included in the patch notes.

Thankfully, some enterprising members of the Age of Conan forums took it upon themselves to list down all of these changes and release it to the rest of the gaming populace. So for your viewing pleasure, here are the undocumented patch notes from the last update:
