Salvage and Dungeon End Chest Changes
We've updated the way we give out Astral Diamonds as rewards. Dungeons and content now award Astral Diamonds directly and Daily / Epic Dungeon Chest Keys will no longer be required to open chests, while the Salvage feature will be phased out.

Class Balance Updates
A wide variety of changes has been made to various class powers and general balance. There's enough here that it's impossible to summarize in this highlight, but every class has seen some balance changes and more details will come later. Tooltips are now much more accurate, too, so check 'em out!
See more info in the Developer Blog: Class Balance Updates
Loot Experience Improvements
Most loot that drops now is automatically picked up when the player runs over it. Need / Greed rolls still pop up as appropriate, and fewer treasure (vendor loot) items drop now, too. Overflow Rewards no longer drop XP tomes, and various other less-desired loot no longer drops.
"K-Team" Dungeon Challenge and Queue Challenge Options
Two new options have been added to queues: "Hardcore Mode," which means that the dungeon is over with a single death, and "Reduce Item Levels to Minimum," which scales the players' equipment down to approximately the minimum item level required to get into the dungeon. Complete these dungeons for bragging rights, and once a week, Omin Dran will offer a quest to complete a specific dungeon using both of these options. Complete the challenge enough times and earn Item Level 600 gear!

AudioPerformance and Stability
General

Executioner FeatsAnimation canceling fix/nerf/rework?
@terramak "Remove the gold cost for removing enchants."

Dead🔪"Skullcracker (Reworked): Every 15 seconds you gain "Skullcracker" which causes your next At-will or encounter power to Daze an enemy for 3 seconds and apply a mark to them for 6 seconds. The duration of this mark is increased by 0.5 seconds each time you deal damage, up to a maximum of 4 bonus seconds.

Scullcracker's mark duration was increased to 10 seconds and the mark extension was increased to a total of 5 additional seconds.
The above quote from the patch notes is the draft 1 version of scullcracker and incorrectly states the mark lasts 6 seconds and that the mark extension is up to 4 seconds.
*Update*
It looks like TR isn't the only class that still has a few outdated versions of stuff listed in these patch notes, DCs also have some outdated things and I suspect there is more for other classes. Definitely double check these patch notes before the 6th and please tell us if anything really did get reverted.

RIP Real Tiamat, RIP Real Demogorgon RIP real Temple of the spider. Why remove non bis content to give to bis players ????
FORCING the majority of your player base to play 4 mod old dungeons and trial will have a bad result on player base
Changes are getting so bad i would rather prefer no new changes (RIP ICE FISHING in winter fest)
Where is the info about Careful Attack fix?
Terrifying Insight:
I saw the place where the change was proposed (someone else linked me), but I'm still getting verification on the change. The change doesn't seem to have yet taken place on Preview.EDIT: Whoops, noworries responded on a different thread. The changes haven't been made, but will likely be in a future build.I don't have context on Careful Attack, so I can't give a useful response on that topic.
Thanks!
excuses may be made for the lack of time or whatever to proceed to fix/change what is asked but none for being ignored.
