It’s been a very light week when it comes to hotfixes. This makes sense since we have a brand new patch coming this week!
While there were only two batches of hotfixes and three changes overall, they were all very significant. Tank threat was increased to catch up with rising damage values. There was also a less successful fix. The raid Renown getting stuck was initially fixed, but the issue returned at a higher reputation value, leaving players stuck at 2499/2500.
Even the single Season of Discovery change was a major one. It doubled the buff to player damage and healing for the Scarlet Enclave raid and sped up its accumulation!
Classes
- Increased threat generation of all tank specializations by 15%.
- Developer’s notes: We’re finding that tanks are having difficulty gaining and holding threat, so we are adjusting tank threat generation in order to address this issue.
Renown
- Fixed an issue where players could become capped on Gallagio Loyalty Rewards reputation earlier than intended. For players who have killed a boss that would have rewarded reputation properly but didn’t, defeating that boss on a separate character this week will yield the intended amount of reputation.
Season of Discovery
- The incrementing player buff in Scarlet Enclave now increases by 5% every week (was every 2 weeks).
- Developer’s notes: In an effort to support players in Season of Discovery we’ve decided to advance the incrementing player buff in Scarlet Enclave to go up by 5% every week instead of every 2 weeks. Starting today, June 10, the buff will advance to 10%.
