Mind telling us if the missing Empty Soul Vessels for Threads of Fate turn-in will be addressed in this fix?

To wit:




**: Star Fragments will be an uncommon drop from Legendary Saltmarsh to start, and will become more available later on (just like how Empty Soul Vessels will be joining the list of Threads of Fate purchasable items as of Update 50). Our goal is that it will not be hard to find enough of these to upgrade your items.

I wager its going to be about this:
I have 426 favor, I have recieved the mail to talk to him, but zarnoth gives me no access to the HW tree. yes, I puchased the basic package, and thought to get the tree with favor.
We've confirmed that Zarnoth is not distributing this reward properly. We have a fix internally, which should be headed to Live as soon as it can.At least in part, if not in full.

Oh, no doubt.

I'm just hoping they can squeeze in a fix for my concern as well.

What about the new ingredients replacing scroll/seal/shard crafting? Is it WAI that some old epic quests are dropping 0 ingredients, or even as little as 3 ingredients?

Details here:https://www.ddo.com/forums/showthread.php/525894-new-ingredient-drop-rate

You should probably assume the Devs don't know what's wrong with them.

Try again.

Does anyone know whether Saltmarsh quests have enough favour to make it now possible to reach 400 favour without doing Defiler of the Just or The Codex and the Shroud?

While we're at it, the Crocodiles in the Saltmarsh don't have capitalised names and the rust monsters in Haunting of Saltmarsh sre just called "melee". Might want to look at those.

I hope this fix include a way to compensate the huge amount of DC loss with the recent nerf to all items...

So far only humanoids are 'nerfed'. Animals, elementals and those stuff are still with high inflated HP... I mean, look at Lord of Dust. Humans have merely 2k hp there while dogs have over 10k. The mini boss doggo have over 60k while the mini boss lady have 12k.

That's how Saltmarsh loot works. Loot the Lvl 3 item (yes, even in Legendary levels) then upgrade to Epic -> Legendary versions using ingredients.

However, there is an issue when collecting the quest arc completion reward in the tavern - the Legendary loot list populates then is immediately replaced by the Heroic loot list.

I have completed all the gatekeeper quests on elite except for the two raids. Now I have 399 favour. That's got to be on purpose, right?

Without doing either raid, you can get to exactly 399 Gatekeeper favor.

Making it harder and more time consuming to level up sentient gems.

Are the level 30 sands items coming at some point?

Epic alter has 11 pages of stuff

Legendary alter only has 7 pages.

Working as intended?

The legendary sands items are supposed to be coming in a future patch (like 50.1 for example), which this isn't. This has always been their stated intention afaik, since they weren't going to have them ready for the update. It's not that they were just somehow forgotten to be included, so they'd be able to be hotfixed, they are simply not done yet.

Upgrading Heroic Scroll/Seal/Shard items now properly requires Greater Tokens of the Twelve.

Sad. I assume this should say "Raid" items? Otherwise, very sad.

Yes, the non-raid items didn't require any of the tokens of the twelve at all (and still don't). The raid items mistakenly required normal Tokens of the Twelve, instead of the Greater Tokens, so this is just to fix that.

The release notes for the hotfix say it was released on Thursday instead of Friday.

I'm a bit disappointed that the hotfix had such little content. There are so many known issues not addressed that waiting a bit longer would have been much better.

Hey,

I unlocked Horizon Walker on my main through favour, Racial TR'd into a ranged toon only to find it doesn't persist through TR... Nice one!

I did speak to Zarnoth and confirmed it worked before TR.

Especially ironic when they put a new Spark in the bundle. lmbo

They probably wanted to get out what they could before the weekend. Dev team doesn't work weekends generally afaik.

good to see that its more important to sort a cosmetic horse than a whole enhancement tree that doesnt persist through tr

this also seems more pressing an issue than a cosmetic horse
