Patch Notes: NW.131.20211003a.12


Release Notes

Content and Environment
Echoes of Prophecy
  • The Echoes of Prophecy battle pass intro quest, “A Subtle Curiosity,” has been changed to only award currency once per account.
  • The portal that takes you between Scar Keep and the Jagged Approach now supports Echoes of Prophecy content correctly.
  • The respawn timer on the Plaguetouched Maws in Burning Road has been reduced by 50% to ease in Echoes of Prophecy quest completion.

Combat and Powers
Classes and Balance
  • Bard: Certain buff songs no longer incorrectly stack upon themselves under certain conditions. This has introduced an issue in which the song buffs can display incorrectly; we are looking into this issue, but it does not have a gameplay effect.

Items and Economy
Events
  • Masquerade of Liars: The maximum stack count of Handful of Enchanted Bristles is now 25, up from 20.
Reward Claims Agent
  • (PC clients only) Because there was an issue preventing some players from claiming the 25 Reward Reroll Tokens between October 26 and November 2, all players may claim a set of 25 Reward Reroll Tokens from the Reward Claims Agent between this update and November 23.
    • Note: This does not affect the Preview shard.
Zen Market
  • As of this update, Unbind Tokens can now be purchased from the Zen Market in packs of 10 or 100, under the Supplies category.
    • Note: This does not affect the Preview shard.

User Interface
Campaigns / Adventures
  • An outdated unlock condition for accessing the Well of Dragons map has been updated.
  • The Campaign icon no longer glows after all available rewards are claimed.
Rewards
  • Opening a reward pack or lockbox, while a different type of reward pack is currently open, no longer incorrectly displays a blank page.
Vendors
  • (Console systems only) Selling to a vendor once again consistently shows the cursor highlight.

Performance and Stability
General
  • A recently-introduced crash in the inventory system has been addressed.

    Why is the patch so big, It's so big that it feels that I am downloading the game again. I mean more than 9 GB?!

    So you nerf the only means for a bard to have any competitive damage but didn't fix any of the bugs that handicap the damage like loremaster giving 5% damage instead of 50%? or flourish not working on half of the encounters/songs?

    Also, a new bug was introduced to the bard, steel march song now uses up all the performance bar, instead of using 2/3
