[Dandonk]

"Thank you for your patience" should be a new teleport cosmetic option.

 

[Terpilar]

So still no fix for the Earth Elementals staying locked in their earthgrab animations ? How do you even break such a thing ?

 

[Hobgoblin]

not fixing the 2w in shintao?

 

[FaceDancer]

Will be curious to see if the banking fixes minimize some of the server spikes we see occasionally (or just laggy bank performance).

Any chance the Argonnessen Eye Band will drop properly on legendary? Or is this ring cursed (and any player chasing it...) for eternity?

It wasn't before I wrote my first comment.

 

[jrazumich]

Exactly what does "performance optimizations have been made to all bank types" actually mean?

 

[drjoans]

we're just doubling up on that old adage of 3rd times the charm huh?

 

[Arkat]

we're just doubling up on that old adage of 8th time's the charm huh?

Fixed

 

[drjoans]

Fixed

is it 8? I thought we were at 6. Geegad

 

[FaceDancer]

Maybe some kind of database optimization?

Or.... they put self lubricating roller bearings on the server-hamster running wheels!

Yes, this fix is in the release.

 

[Mofus]

Dont hold your breath on this one, but maybe the 5th time will work. Sorry Cordo but trust in the dev team is at an all time low. Good luck this time.
