PATCH NOTES - FOR THE DECEMBER 11, 2025 PATCH
Fellowship Limited Event: The Stronghold Hearthwarming
Over the holiday period our team is going to be taking a break and enjoying the midwinter with family and friends. This will be the last scheduled update until the new year and we wanted to leave players with something to keep them warm.
We’ve decorated the Stronghold with snow and festive fun, and our very jolly vendor has unlockable skins and mounts available through in-game activities until January 15th.
Quickplay Experience
As part of our continued review of existing experiences, we’ve wanted to take a look at the effectiveness of Quickplay for some time. Our immediate goal is to ensure the intentions of Quickplay are preserved without veteran players being made to feel required to play in modes they are not interested in. As a result we’ve made major changes to how Marks of Fellowship are earned.
We will continue to monitor how these changes to Quickplay affect not just the experience of the mode, but the economy as a whole as we look at how it affects the rate of progression from here. This is unlikely to be the last change we make to the mode, but we wanted to see the effect of these changes to base our next steps on.

Added Rich Presence to the player’s friends list, letting them see what their friends are up to while playing elsewhere in Fellowship.
Added Armor categories (Cloth, Leather, Mail, and Plate) to item tooltips. These values have always been present in the item but haven’t been exposed to tooltips until now. These categories give a quick indication of stat values of each item for comparison.

Updated the UI for strict tier select elements on the Eternal Matchmaking screen.

PROGRESSION
Marks of Fellowship
Removed Marks of Fellowship from the Quickplay reward pool. Quickplay now only rewards Supplies.
Increased Marks of Fellowship rewards to League matches:
Challenge
Regular Dungeons: 1 Mark guaranteed + % Chance of 1 more based on Difficulty
Capstone Dungeons: 2 Marks guaranteed + % Chance of 1 more based on Difficulty
Ransack of Drakheim would therefore drop 3 Marks Guaranteed
Eternal
Regular Dungeons: 2 Marks guaranteed + % Chance of 1 more based on Difficulty
Capstone Dungeons: 4 Marks guaranteed + % Chance of 1 more based on Difficulty
% Chance of 1 More Caps at guaranteed in Eternal 100+
Added direct purchase of Ingots, Aethers, and Godstones at different prices for each level of rarity in exchange for Marks of Fellowship.
Fixed an issue where Godstones were not dropping in leagues correctly.
Removed Timed Boxes from the Resource Vendor.
Winter Event
Added 48 nodes to the starmap tied to the Winter Event, rewarding players with ‘Warm Wishes’, a festive currency to be exchanged for festive gifts.
HEROES
General
Tariq and Vigour now use Mail armor instead of Plate. This will lower their armor stat based off of gear.
Elarion now uses Mail armor instead of Leather. This will increase their armor stat based off of gear.
Rime
Fixed an issue where [Wrath of Winter] would not generate resource orbs if players were not in combat.
Fixed an issue where Rime’s Resource Orbs were not scaling correctly when scaled in the HUD Edit tool.
Elarion
Fixed an issue where [Grappling Arrow] was not pulling enemies to correct locations across difficult terrain.
Meiko
Updated tooltip for [Earthfist Barrage] to correctly show a Haste-scaled channel time rather than the base value.
DUNGEONS
Winter Event
Each dungeon in Adept league and above will include one additional curse which adds an optional ‘Spirit of Winter’ boss fight to the dungeon. Completing this fight will give players a bonus for the duration of the dungeon and extend the dungeon’s timer.
‘Ghorn, the Avalanche’ - Defeating Ghorn will cause him to return as an ally in subsequent boss fights.
‘Krumbug, the Naughty’ - Defeat Krumbug will extend the Dungeon Timer by 1 minute and add a chance for subsequent attacks to spawn an Explosive Windup Mouse that charges your selected target.
‘Eira, the White Witch’ - Defeating Eira will extend the Dungeon Timer by 3 minutes and causes her to return periodically during the dungeon to protect players in combat.
General
Updated the AI system to add padding after being Crowd Controlled or Interrupt so they don’t immediately start casting their next ability.
Fixed an issue with the opacity system which would make weapons to not fade in/out when bosses reset, and other problems.
Fixed an issue where bosses sometimes are visible while resetting and are facing the wrong way after they have been reset.
Ransack of Drackheim
Fixed an issue where players who die and are resurrected while attached to the [Grasping Pillar] have inconsistent behavior after resurrection.
Fixed an issue where [Auga Haghafi] would spawn in the ground or overlapping other objects.
Heart of Tuzari
Fixed an issue where the Prophet Ez'roth’s [Wicked Hook] was not targeting the closest player.
