Murkmire Fixes & ImprovementsEdit

Quests & ZonesEdit

General

• You can now fast travel to group members who are inside either the Teeth of Sithis or Tsofeer Cavern Delves.

Quests

• Teeth of Sithis: You will now be able to find all required objects to complete this quest.

Summerset Fixes & ImprovementsEdit

Quests & ZonesEdit

General

• Fixed an issue where Psijic Portals were appearing in Murkmire more often than intended. Psijic Portal appearance rates are now in line with those of most other zones, with only Summerset having a greater appearance rate (as intended).

Wolfhunter Fixes & ImprovementsEdit

UIEdit

General

• Fixed an issue preventing Bloodscent Dew from displaying an icon in your inventory.

Combat & GameplayEdit

Combat & AbilitiesEdit

General

• Fixed an issue where single-target cast time abilities, such as Uppercut or Dark Flare, would cancel the cast immediately if you did not keep your target within your reticle during the entire cast time.
  • Developer Comment: We never intended to change single-target cast time abilities in this way; this was caused from an unrelated bug fix in the previous patch.
• Fixed an issue where you could use "pull" abilities, such as Fiery Grip or Silver Leash, to move immovable monsters.
• Weapon Enchantments and poisons will no longer proc from single-target Damage over Time effects of any weapon ability. The following effects can no longer proc Weapon Enchantments or poisons:
  • The Damage over Time from Cleave and its morphs
  • The Damage over Time from Twin Slashes and its morphs
  • All damage from Lacerate and its morphs
  • The residual Damage over Time from Toxic Barrage
  • The Damage over Time from Acid Spray
  • The Damage over Time from Poison Arrow and its morphs
  • The Damage over Time from Destructive Touch and its morphs
• Major Expedition's visual effects will no longer become stuck on player characters.
  • Developer Comment: This change should improve performance in environments with heavy effects (Trials, AvA, etc.) when multiple players are applying Major Expedition.
• Fixed an issue where spamming cast time or channeled abilities, such as Puncturing Strikes or Dark Flare, would cause a delay to occur between each cast of those abilities.

Base Game Fixes & ImprovementsEdit

Alliance War & PVPEdit

General

• Improved the collision to better match the various Imperial Bridge House destruction states.

Battlegrounds

• Fixed an issue where portions of the Lakemire Xanmeer Manor would disappear when viewed from certain locations.
