INFERNAL DAWN

Laethys:
  • Increased Laethys' Enrage timer by 1 minute.
  • Increased the timer for the Laethys Achievement, 'Gold Rush', from 8 minutes to 9 minutes.

  • Greed's Wrath will deal substantially less damage when it ticks just after the target has taken damage from Golden Subjugation.
  • Laethys no longer gains Energy while channeling Golden Destruction.
  • Gilded Shrapnel can no longer be reflected.

Maklamos the Scryer: Now with even more squashed bugs.


INSTANT ADVENTURE
  • Onslaughts should be more difficult now, but should also have a max number of Invasions that can spawn an attack a given location.
  • Unleaded Transmutation: This adventure should no longer wrongly inform you that some crates are already filled with lead.


GENERAL
  • Looking For Group: Fixed a bug where you could occasionally be given a Random Normal dungeon when you had queued for a Random Expert.
  • Riftblade: Stoneshield: Fixed this so it no longer prevents certain Event and Boss mechanics it should not be able to block.
  • World Event: The end date on the World Event UI now actually matches the updated event ending date!
  • World Event: Rogue statues no longer appear in the middle of tents set up in Sanctum for the World Event.
  • The 'Hide Other Players' Hit FX' option now actually only applies to player VFX.
  • Fixed a case where attacks in duels wouldn't put characters into combat.
  • EU Shards: Players who have queued quest rewards from the current World event can now claim them properly from the UI.
  • Updated the landing page URLs from when you click the Support button on the patcher.

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.

    • 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.
