– Added an achievement for completing the Eron’s Jewelry quest line.
– Access to the Great Divide instance for the 10th Ring War has been removed due to it’s failure to actually work properly. This is to prevent people from getting lockouts for an instance that does not work. We have no estimate about when/if it will return.

The bokon believers in the raid event have had their level reduced from 105 to 104. The bokon believers are now much less likely to break free from root effects. Increased the periodic damage timer of the Tendrils of Pestilence traps from 1 second to 2 seconds.

*** Progression Servers ***

– Made changes to cultural tradeskills to allow most of the cultural available in Velious to be made in Velious on progression servers. Note: The troll made weapons were not available until Luclin and will continue to be locked until then.
– It should now be possible to spawn Dain Frostreaver IV by handing Chamberlain Krystorf your Runed Coldain Prayer Shawl.
– Trakanon will now drop Undead Dragongut Strings. The Undead Bard will no longer spawn.
– Bosses in the Plane of Fear 2.0 instance will now correctly get Mitigation of the Mighty III instead of Mitigation of the Mighty I.

*** Tradeskills ***

– Corrected an issue with a tradeskill achievement.
– Items that were flagged as usable in tradeskills that were not part of any active recipe have had their tradeskill flag removed. (This does not impact tradeskill containers or tradeskill trophies which are flagged in this manner in order to fit inside of tradeskill component containers.)
– Infected Rat Livers, Tundra Kodiak Meat, and Filthy Ape Liver now stack to 20. Filthy Ape Liver and Beautiful Tiger Hide are now flagged as tradeskill.

– Terror (Raid) – Moved the DoT component of Aura of Terror to a separate spell, Aura of Terror Strike.
