Expedition Objectives have been added to fixed region play now, too. This allows you to tell other players that you want to explore areas with fixed levels if you aren’t as high a level as you’d want to be.
The update notice screen has seen a fix implemented regarding certain languages present in the game. This will hopefully make things clearer for those of you who don’t have English as your first language.
Finally, a solution has been patched in that means Glavenus will now get caught in traps that are set by you or other players. Glavenus had been able to evade traps up until this point. You’ll be glad to know that your traps will work now and make the battle easier. That’s a big win for anyone who had issues with this element of the Glavenus fight.
