=== KNOWN ISSUES ===
* Reactive Abilities UI is on temporary vacation. That jerk.
* Granting of the Collector's Edition Satchel has been temporarily disabled.
* The Soul of the Pyromancer is giving a soul sigil not needed for the quest. Just ignore it!
GENERAL GAMEPLAY
* You can no longer return mail to sender if it was generated by an NPC or the game system.
* Level requirements have been removed from the previously-level 20 mount. If you can get to them, and can afford them, you can use them.
* We now show a warning if you roll on loot while your inventory is full.
* If the winner of a loot roll has no inventory space, the item stays on the corpse but is only lootable by the winner.
* You can now roll need/greed on loot while dead, even if the Soul Walk/respawn option is on screen.
* Quest counting achievements really should be updating now. For real.
* The Archon soul quest can once again be completed.
COMBAT
* Fixed an issue causing some pets to behave incorrectly. This fix will reset pet settings (passive/defensive etc, what abilities are toggled on) to the defaults.
SOULS
ASSASSIN
* Serrated Blades: Fixed tooltip error.
BARD
* Verse of Captivation: Fixed tooltip to indicate the affect only works on a single enemy.
RANGER
* Prey of the Weak: Damage bonus reduced to 5-15%, down from 10-30%. The duration has been extended from 10 seconds to 20 seconds.
* Piercing Shot: Damage slightly increased.
* Shadow Fire: Duration of the haste buff increased to 15 seconds from 10.
* Dire Wolf, Blood Raptor: Ability damage slightly reduced for these pets.
SABOTEUR
* Carpet Bombing: Now also resets the cooldown of your Bombs.
* Spike Charge, Blast Charge: Damage has been very slightly reduced!
* Charges, Bombs, and Detonate can now be used with any weapon equipped.
* New Ability - Incriminate: 20 point root ability. When activated, all threat generated is transferred to the target party or raid member for 6 seconds. Does not trigger global cooldown.
DUNGEONS AND RAIDS
* Melee damage of most dungeon bosses has been reduced.
* Messages showing people joining/leaving a raid group now go to the General tab.
* Hunger of the Deep Rift Raid adjustments based on feedback and playtests.
ITEMS
* Preorder Runes can now be applied to two-handed Swords and Staves.
* Fixed an issue keeping many of the new Greater Essences from attaching their spell effect.
* Foci-equipped Greater Essences did actually get removed with the previous patch, you're not crazy.
PVP/WARFRONTS
* If you are under the leaving-PvP flag timer when you log out, the countdown no longer resets when you log back in.
* Power-ups in Warfronts no longer persist once you leave the map.
* Engaging in PvP in protected areas can catch the attention of peacekeeping Guards! You'll still need to be in range of them to get their aggro, though.
* Player-summoned Guardian and Defiant invasions will no longer cause you to get PvP-flagged if attacked.
GRAPHICS AND AUDIO
* Fixed visual effects sometimes being left floating in the world.
* Updated body animations to prevent legs moving independently of upper body animations.
* Mighty Leap and Angelic Flight will now animate correctly the first time they are used.
* Improved character model AA.
* Fixed a bug causing characters to not appear correctly in the portrait windows.
UI/SETTINGS
* You can now toggle between display of server time and local time by left clicking the clock below the minimap.
* Changing the clock time also updates your chat timestamps to the appropriate time selection.
* Fixed an AA warning popping up when changing unrelated settings.
* Target of Target portrait should no longer get into a state where it displays 0/0 and negative percent.
* Special characters will once again display properly in the chat window when using copy/paste and slash commands.
CLIENT/SERVER
* Fixed client to properly persist the maximized window state.
* Added a message if the client can't connect to the game servers on the standard ports (6900-6909), but CAN connect successfully on port 80. This case suggests that the required ports are blocked and that the user should contact Customer Service for troubleshooting.
