Hotfixes

The following hotfixes were deployed after the 3.16.1 patch.

Hotfix 1

Reverted the following change which was included in today's 3.16.1 patch as it has introduced additional issues:

• Fixed a bug where Belts with some Energy Shield and Armour modifiers could not be reforged with random modifiers, including a Defence modifier, through Harvest crafting.

We will include a fix for this bug in a future patch.

Hotfix 2

• Gilded FossilGilded FossilStack Size: 10Item is overvalued by vendorsPlace in a Resonator to influence item crafting. modifiers that had multiple sell price outcomes now instead have a single possible outcome. This is to solve a problem where some outcomes of a Gilded Fossil modifier can be previewed in the Vendor window, and visibly change in quantity when the item is modified using currency that changes an item's base type.
• Fixed a bug where the Tainted Divine TeardropTainted Divine TeardropStack Size: 10Unpredictably raises or lowers the tier of each modifier on a corrupted rare itemRight click this item then left click a corrupted rare item to apply it. could raise crafted modifiers to values higher than usually obtainable or change them to a crafted modifier that is not usually found on that base type. As a result of this fix, Tainted Divine Teardrop no longer affects crafted modifiers or modifiers that can't normally roll. Existing items that have impossible modifiers will be changed into appropriate possible modifiers when the Scourge league ends.
• Fixed a bug where the Tainted Divine Teardrop was not able to raise or lower the tier of some modifiers.
• Fixed a bug where the Gladiator Achievement could not be completed.
