Release Notes for FC.31.20150819.19
This build is available on PTS now, 9/18/2015
- Villain Lockboxes will now appropriately drop from critters.
- Made the Bats Aura and Boiling Blood Aura Bind to Account on Equip instead of Bind to Character on Equip. (**Note, versions of these that have already been acquired and bound to character will stay bound to character. Any that have not been bound should update to Bind to Account on Equip).

Please format any bugs you find in the following format:

Please stay on topic in this PTS thread. We use bug reports from this thread to decide whether a PTS build is ready to go live, and so we need to make sure we're seeing everything in it. Please do discuss the changes, but if you find yourself writing about something that isn't specific to what's on PTS, then that should probably go here: http://forum.arcgames.com/championsonline/categories/gameplay-bugs1.

    Gotta agree about the drifter auras. Costumes should always be bind to account, not to character. Very, very bad move.​​

    Is it possible to provide a vendor to exchange already bound lockbox auras with the fixed version? Like they had for last year's action figures for the mechanon event?​​

    I am getting these game breaking issues on the live server since the onslaught patch went live, I can't even get past the character select screen and log into certain characters because of this!

    Bug:

    I also cannot access certain characters. The game just crashes on my end...I don't get to see the error message.

    Decompression errors indicate problem files in live/piggs/*.hogg (probably texture.hogg or texture2.hogg, given the error). The patcher isn't very smart about fixing those, but redownloading them will work, and turning off on-demand patching will be extremely slow the first time you do it but may help.

    This makes me angry. There needs to be a way to exchange the broken auras for the fixed ones. Is this how to treat your early adopters?

    Edit: Okay. You guys forgot to make Holo-Disruptor Aura and Timewarp Aura Bind-To-Account. Right?





    Right? Tell me this isn't intended.​​

    I just redownloaded the entire game and it didn't help.

    Drifter Aura being BoE to Character is working as intended. currently. Although seeing as Drifter Salvage is a secondary (or is it tertiary?) prize effectively coming from a real cash purchase (a key), Auras should be treated as per other Drifter Items - Account Bound (Vehicles)/Account Wide (for costumes). In my opinion. For what that's worth.​​

    I agree. To my knowledge, these are the first character-bound auras, which is going to cause confusion. Unless a player is very observant or reads the forums, he/she is likely to assume those auras follow the other auras' binding precedent, and not realize the reality until it's already bound.

    To my knowledge, these are the first character-bound auras.

    Legacy auras are also character-bound, but you get one per character for free.

    I was going to get them from the drifter but not if they are character bound.​​
