Focused Ray now increases the damage of Void Ray by 15% in PvP combat (was 50%).
Inevitable End now reduces the cast time of Collapsing Star by 25% instead of increasing its damage done. Please note that the tooltip will not reflect this change during pre-patch.

Quests

Doomshadow should live a little longer before meeting their demise for players who are participating in “The Big Dig”.

Twilight Ascension Event

Spawns in the Twilight Highlands should properly announce their presence to the zone when they spawn.
Fixed an issue preventing Eoin Dunwald from appearing during the Twilight Ascension event.
The weekly repeatable quests “Twilight’s Dawn” and “Disrupt the Call” may now be completed per-character and they now award Twilight’s Blade Insignias to all characters.
Twilight Ascension World Quests now award both Twilight’s Blade Insignias and Resonance Crystals to all characters as their primary reward instead of awarding one or the other.

Comment by CreselaThey've changed the price of the kobold housing decor from Gabbun to be for resonance crystals rather than gold.Comment by JustAGirlTXNice change allowing the weekly per character and not per Warband/account.Comment by LimetailStill one of the worst, half-arsed events they’ve put out in recent memory. Do all the problems with the Arathi one, at least they tried to do something interesting.Comment by aloehaSo they didn't fix the constant DC issue everyone has been complaining about?Comment by avatarofshadowPRO TIP - The free transmog per character is now live. When you go to save an outfit, you get a pop up offering you to have a free save or to still pay gold.Comment by VentraSo.... there's no follow up to the event yet?
We all just doing old content and rep farming for decor?

Comment by Knersch!@#$ing finally, I have just one question why did the prepatch event not release with the weeklies and dailies being per character instead of warband-locked... if people wanna grind this %^&* on 20 characters then let them... this gear literally doesn't matter in a month from now and it's not like champion gear is good anyway

this was such huge L on all fronts
