Items

• Aman’muso, Warlord’s Vengeance is again restricted to the main-hand slot only.
  • Developers’ notes: The recent change to this weapon was more disruptive than anticipated and resulted in adverse incentives for certain specializations. This does not impact Zatha’tek, Breath of Corruption.

Player versus Player

• Conqueror’s Venomous Lacquer should now add PvP item level to tier shoulders when used.

Quests

• Players above level 80 can once again complete “Step Into the Light”.
• The weekly quest “Midnight: Vaults of Atal’Utek” no longer incorrectly suggests that it rewards two Sparks of Tide. This was a UI typo only.
• Fixed an issue that would prevent “Purging the Vaults” or “Vaults of Atal’Utek: A Toxic Tour” quests from being completed if you already had Trovehunter’s Bounty in your inventory.
• The required Quest Item for “Seeking Knowledge Week 5 of 5: Off-World Magic” can now drop from Elite Rares, Overseers, and Rivals on Val and Naigtal.
