Magelo Sync has been patched!

GENERAL

  • World Event: Fixed drop rates for War of the Wanton Maw quest items from Fire and Earth Zone Events.
  • World Event: The 1.8 World Event has been extended for a week, due to end Thursday, May 24th.
  • Riftstalker: Rift Barrier: Once again works on reflectable abilities. Rift Barrier now properly caps the amount of damage that can be reflected.
  • Items: Wrathful Flames and its lower-ranked versions now properly have a damage cap on reflected damage and can again be used on reflectable abilities.
  • Re-fixed Porticulum costs for in-zone travel; traveling between Porticulums within the same zone should charge 1 Gold consistently.
  • Improved the way channeled ability visual effects are hidden or partially shown when the 'Hide Other Players' Hit FX' setting is enabled.

INFERNAL DAWN

  • Maklamos the Scryer:
    • Crystal Essence buffs will now - for real, finally, and after much gnashing of teeth - properly apply their consequences if players fail to resolve the beams before the duration runs out.
    • Increased the enrage timer of Maklamos. Enrage will now properly trigger after 8 minutes of combat.
    • Players receiving Scarlet, Emerald, or Azure Crystal Essence while standing on the corresponding crystal formations will no longer prevent the mechanic from being solved.
    • Crystalline Devastation now waits slightly longer before it begins to apply debuffs in its radius.
    • Altered Crystalline Devastation’s root-target effect.
    • Ruthless, Monstrous, and Merciless Juggernaughts now set their health in an appropriately uninterruptible fashion.
  • Rusila Dreadblade:
    • Dreaded Longshots just got more dread-able; they'll now be able to aim Dreadshot at anyone engaged in combat with them.

PVP

  • Iron Pine PvP Daily Quests: Firebrand Steelclaws should no longer despawn prematurely when attacked before they began casting Revert.

CRAFTING

  • The Outfitter crafting daily quest ‘Workorder: Icewatch Leggings’ no longer refers to Wool Socks.



Magelo Sync has been patched!
Hotfix #4 has been applied to all US and EU shards. Below, we have posted the patch notes as found on the Rift Community Website:

Namplates!

  • We’ve been working behind the scenes on a highly requested UI feature – Nameplates allow you to easily see the status of those around you while keeping your eyes on the fight!
  • By default, nameplates will replace the old health bars and appear above yours and your target’s heads while in combat.
  • We have a wide variety of settings, so customize to your heart’s content by going to Settings -> Interface -> Nameplates. You can swap between your customized settings and the default with Shift+V.
  • The options also allow you to turn the system off entirely, if desired.
  • Name colors can be customized in the Name Colors tab.

World Event

  • Increased the drop rate for Power Cells while on the quest Parcels through the Cracks.

Crafting/Items

  • The fishing artifact 'Trophy Stillmoor Devil' is now fishable in Stillmoor!
  • The description of all fish has been updated with the water depth and locations where they can be found.
  • Abandoning the 300 Skill Crafting Daily Quest will no longer remove the crafted items from your bags. However, you cannot have more than 4 of these items at any one time.
  • Mathosian Longbow daily quest recipe now correctly requires a Workbench instead of the Forge.
  • All Planar Attunement Tier 2 item enchants now require a lvl 50 item. Several runes now require items to be level 50 when applied.

Infernal Dawn

Maklamos the Scryer
  • Removed the cast time from an interruptible ability used by the three Juggernaut golems – if interrupted, it would cause them to become active with a higher health value than intended.
  • Failing to “solve” the Crystal Essences now triggers the intended consequences instead of no consequences.
  • Reduced agro range and moved his encounter wall up the hallway a bit. Rusila Dreadblade
  • Iron Wrath can no longer be avoided by moving further than 30m away.
  • Increased Rusila’s movement speed, she no longer moves in slow motion compared to other Infernal Dawn bosses.
  • Fixed an issue that could cause Rusila to use certain abilities much less frequently than intended.

  • Dreaded Snipers will now respawn appropriately.
  • Warforged Firestorms are once again susceptible to mesmerize effects.
  • Adjusted the Baleful Inferno ability “Rupture” to allow it to be interrupted by more abilities.
  • Adjusted the Pyrefly ability “Ember Strike” damage.

Raids

  • Increased the amount of additional damage output granted by the Enrage buff.

Souls

Mage
  • Chloromancer
    • Due to its change to instant cast, Withering Vine now gives 9 Charge when cast. Down from 15.
  • Dominator
    • Fixed an issue where Thunder Blast was not triggering Quick Thinking.
    • Fixed an issue where some control breaking abilities were removing both the root and damage effects of Storm Shackle. These abilities will now only remove the root effect.
  • Necromancer
  • Fixed an issue where Vengeful Spirit was not preventing the Shadow Revenant’s Blood Corruption from removing stacks of Deathly Calling.

Rogue
  • Riftstalker:
    • Rift Barrier no longer redirects damage dealt by abilities that cannot be reflected.
