Abundance

  • Fixed an issue where players could not begin Abundance in Voidstorm. All players who lost Shards of Dundun due to this issue will be refunded with Unalloyed Abundance in an upcoming hotfix.

Island Expeditions

  • Island Expeditions should be queueing correctly once again.

Items

  • Fixed an issue where the Void-Touched Torch had lower Intellect than intended.

Lorewalking

  • Fixed an issue where the initial objective conversation for “The Prince Who Would Be King” would not complete.

Naigtal

  • The “Bouncy Mushrooms,” “Aerospores”, and “The Grappler” unlocks in Naigtal are now account wide.
  • Fixed an issue that prevented Nexus-Captain Leth’ir from dropping the quest item for “Knocking Off the Top (Heroic).” Characters that encountered the issue can earn their emblem from another Heroic kill of Nexus-Captain Leth’ir or from a wrapper quest they have not completed.
