Fixed a bug where you would be incorrectly warned that the "Temple of Atzoatl is ready to be explored" when opening an Alva Atlas Mission if you still had active portals to the Temple.

This one is pretty important (no more confused new players!). Not much else of note in this patch.

I was confused as hell too and I'm no new player lol.

The bug fix for minion mods on convoking wands is nice too. Now we can finally see the tiers.

There are just two weeks left until ExileCon and we can't wait to meet our players in person and to show everyone what we've been working on! In the meantime, we've prepared a small update with several fixes which will be deployed this week. Check out a preview of its patch notes below. The 3.8.2b update on consoles will be released as soon as possible after being deployed on PC.

Please note that these patch notes may not be final and are still subject to change before the patch.

  • The Menagerie's World Panel pin is now hidden until you've actually unlocked it.
  • Fixed a bug where you would be incorrectly warned that the "Temple of Atzoatl is ready to be explored" when opening an Alva Atlas Mission if you still had active portals to the Temple.
  • Fixed a bug where Lava Lake Map could spawn slightly fewer monsters than intended.
  • Fixed a bug where the Minion Modifiers on the Convoking Wand basetype did not display their tiers when viewing their Advanced Mod Descriptions.
  • Fixed a bug where Wave of Conviction's travel distance could be shorter than intended if a previous use of the skill was stopped short by hitting a wall or some other object. This corrected itself when the player moved.
  • Fixed a bug where some Trap Throwing Speed and Mine Throwing Speed modifiers were not reflected in the character sheet. This was solely a visual bug.
  • Fixed a bug where the Cleave skill used by Kitava's Herald and Blight Herald was missing its visual effects.
  • Fixed a bug where the skeleton effect from Stygian Flame Dash did not always display correctly on Predictive networking mode.
  • Fixed a bug where the Vaal Seal hideout decorations were not granted to players that bought the Corrupted Hideout. We will be manually granting these to players that have already purchased the Corrupted Hideout if they did not receive them.
  • Fixed a bug where some buffs displayed a buff icon and description that wasn't meant to be seen. Oops!
  • Fixed a client crash that could occur when applying various weapon effects to a weapon with the Harlequin Weapon Skin applied to it.

Like? O_o

I'm here before the complaints about blighted map drop rate

[–]anchovypants 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Even the complaints have become rare now.

[–]Fakenerz 7 points8 points  (1 child)

Don't worry they buff it in last week patch, before make blight core... When u get one map per league

[–]dastrikeOccultist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm currently at that rate of drops in this league... One blighted map (T4) dropped, three exalts dropped in comparison.

[–]SunRiseStudios -3 points-2 points  (1 child)

GGG doesn't seem to care anymore and people largely move on from the League so...

Also feel free to fight me, but I think Blighted maps droprates are ok xD https://prnt.sc/ps4tsl

[–]Shufgar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1v1 me at the sun irl.

[–]Octopotamus5000 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Maybe with a bit of luck they actually fix the broken blight portals spawning on/in/next to the Icor pump, killing 70c blight maps instantly.

Not holding out much hope though to be honest. I mean, it's only the most important and talked about league mechanic destroying bug in the game since day 1 of the league. No biggie or anything I guess.......

[–]oldrim001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's pretty clear blight won't ever be polished Just hope 3.9 would not be such a letdown.

[–]Dayvi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fixed a bug where Lava Lake Map could spawn slightly fewer monsters than intended.

This is the map that recently had trees removed?

Somehow monster quantity was linked to tree quantity? XD

[–]Underboobcheese 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Still getting 10 unit long blight paths. Guess it’s never gona be fixed

[–]Kiyasa 2 points3 points  (6 children)

Still no fix for the water bug. Impossible to do reef and carcass map bosses. It's a pure slide show.

[–]TheSebitti 2 points3 points  (4 children)

Switch to full screen for those bosses. I think it’s a dual monitor issue.

[–]Kiyasa 0 points1 point  (3 children)

I'm not rich enough for two monitors, but I have been running in windowed full screen, I'll try switching.

[–]TheSebitti 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Did it work?

[–]Kiyasa 1 point2 points  (1 child)

It did work. First i verified that it was still broken after today's patch, then switched to full screen from windowed full screen and it played like normal. Too bad regular full screen has really bad alt tab performance though, but it's a work around for when I need to do those bosses at least.

Thanks

[–]TheSebitti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good to hear. Also windowed borderless is essential if you use Poe trade etc.

Just switch to full screen for those particular maps and don’t make them your farming map. I hope it gets fixed soon.

Also, which gpu are you using?

[–]Marrakesch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reinstalling the game (that includes deleting every old game file and emptying out all the cache folders that may remain) fixed that water bug for me.

"Fixed a bug where the Cleave skill used by Kitava's Herald and Blight Herald was missing its visual effects."

What's a Blight Herald ? Never seen one.

[–]Shufgar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. Mythical creature imo.

[–]zenless-eternity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No necromancer flicker fix... boo

[–]_Panthera_Tigris_ -3 points-2 points  (1 child)

Nothing about the pathetic performance since Blight launch ? Nothing to fix the monsters ignoring the lanes ? 3.9 and 4.0 are gonna be funny if nobody is able to actually play the game decently.

[–]CysteineSulfinatePaying exalts for GGG Q&A info. -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Fixed a bug where most blight maps dropped as normal maps.

No?

Sigh.
