    any chance to adress the issue with the pot stacks? since if theres a drop after a stack it keeps doing a new one and thus getting more pace on our already limited inventory :/

    Did the Caverns of whatever(Fiery one) and got me(Rogue) and 4 other Rogues.
    Have you guys ever tried doing that with a Rogue tanking? Not fun.

    Maybe as a Role selection feature?

    Thanks for asking! Please continue to report bugs via the usual format (bug report forum or in-game: /bug). We're triaging a high volume of issues right now so your patience is appreciated while we get to everything. :)

    It's just a small UI change - you were always able to report missions, but this allows you to report it in one additional window.

    This is specifically related to unique scenarios where it was possible to gain more experience than intended. Shouldn't affect normal Foundry missions.

    Awesome notes, the ToS Violation Report was greatly needed. Thanks for listening! Glad to see some other exploits removed too. Cheers!

    Also, this:
    Characters with apostrophes in their name can now be loaded.

    Makes 'Old Zeb' very happy! Thank you!

    Not meaning to sound ungrateful, great patch keep up the updates and comms with the community, but when can we see some class balance tweaks.

    Currently I see TR doing 30k+ in one hit on my GWF or my GF buddy. I think this may be the armor pen calculation incorrectly or something but that is just wrong since even stacking health and defense I would have around 25-27k hp with around 30-35% damage reduction.

    Does the armor pen on TR really do that much or are their damage numbers just way to high? I understand they need to burst single targets but one shooting a tank and bruiser class? Not asking them to be nerfed into the ground just the amount of damage that goes through armor be adjusted slightly for player vs player.

    Also for the amount of CC that CW have the damage seems a tad high as well. Could add CC effectiveness reduction mechanic to avoid chain CC from CW's but then that might make them HAMSTER since they couldn't just hold people in place till they were dead anymore.

    Again this is only for pvp but kind of annoying that even as a GWF with some decent defense fighting against a CW or TR I'm dead before I can even pop unstoppable or I just get dropped like a fly outright. 9/10 if a team has a gear CW or TR players are just giving up.

    On a side note could use a mechanic put in that when someone leaves or afks they get auto booted and REPLACED!!!!! Currently too many matches lost via 4v5 or 3v5. Even had one where the match started and it was literally 0v5. :/

    Thank you for these patches, Cryptic. It's good to know you're a company that works on major issues as soon as they are detected (according to a Facebook post at least... *Chuckles*). :-).

    With that in mind... I was wondering if you'll look into the issue with the Tower of Alteration where your character's appearance is completely reset upon entering the interface?
