    • We received feedback that it was difficult to progress through Guardian Scramble when guardians entered the bases of hostile factions and did not come out for various reasons such as attacking an invincible character. We have therefore made changes so that allied guardians are returned to the battle starting point when they enter the bases of hostile factions.
  • Improved Partial Purchase's "Quantity" feature in the Auction House.
    • We received feedback that it was inconvenient how when using Partial Purchase's "Quantity" feature in the Auction House, if you clicked on a number, the quantity was set to a number that added the number you clicked on to your current quantity. Hence we have improved the feature as below:
      • The quantity will be set to the first number you click on after the Partial Purchase UI is displayed.
        • e.g.: if you click on "10" first after the Partial Purchase UI is displayed, the quantity will be set to 10.
      • After the first click, the quantity will be set to current quantity + number you click on.
        • e.g.: if you click on "50" after the first click while your current quantity is 10, the quantity will be set to 60.
  • Improved the visibility of a section without rewards in the ArchePass Rewards list.
    • A section without rewards in the ArchePass Rewards list used to show an empty slot, which looked like a bug and was visibly uncomfortable. Hence we have changed this section to display no slot at all.

    • Region: Great Prairie of the West
