Miscellaneous

Ascension is now up testing on the PBE for RGMQ testing. No big changes testing, PBE thread here.

Balance Changes * Remember *: The PBE is a testing grounds for new, tentative, and sometimes radical or experimental changes. Be aware that what you see below may be lacking context or other changes that didn't make it in or were implemented in an earlier patch this cycle! These are not official notes.



[ VERY IMPORTANT NOTE : The below changes are all AIR client only as we did NOT get a game patch today. This means you will not see these changes implemented in game and there are some values we are just not able to pull correctly.]
