The patch notes are largely the same. With the addition of Grand Company item seal amount changes and known issues.
I'll try an old trick. But it is 74,000 characters and this only allows 1,000 so idk
edit: nvm someone beat me to it lol
Meh :\ I didn't realize
Ah sweet, thanks everyone ^_^
TIP: Use the link on your launcher, not the lodestone website. Website will tell you it's experiencing heavy traffic and launcher pop up will work.
Nope.
But they're up on the lodestone for your viewing pleasure. Too many characters for a forum post.
I'll save you the trouble and tell you nothing I mortar has changed from prelims.
