    Thanks for fixing the stone of health issue! Any reimbursement plans for the extra we've used? I've lost 1 x 200 charges + 2 x 50 charges. They don't come cheap and I love to facetank :)

    @terramak You need to prioritise adding campaign completion tokens to preview either as an extension to the live server so that "copied" tokens function instead of throwing off error messages in the chat. Or implement a system on live itself that allows the individual testing of boons 1 by 1 or combinations of boons etc. 'Cause if any of the developers took time out of their busy schedule to run checks and balances on boons whilst standing in a PvP combat zone they'd be more than likely to stumble across one of the many questionable tooltips and healing bonuses.

    E.g. One of the "When Struck there is a chance to Heal for X amount of HP over a period of Y seconds" boons appears to heal for 6k HP per second both in and out of PvP ignoring the "Healing is 75% less effective when in PvP". Would I like to test which one? Of course. Can I? Nope. Why? Campaign completion tokens don't work. Fix.

    There is also still the issue of being unable to change loadouts in any of the Chult "Patrol" areas in Soshenstar river whilst standing Camp Fires.

    All in all this patch feels pretty empty. There are bigger issues you should've been focusing on like the aforementioned connection issue, thanks @ejziponken.
