PC/Mac & Stadia Hotfix, November 4 – Excessive Champion Points

Hi everyone,
When Update 32 launched earlier this week on PC, a bug was introduced that allowed some players to allocate upwards of 65k Champion Points after performing certain actions. However, no additional power beyond the normal 3600CP could be earned or utilized, and points are reset upon zoning or relogging.
We were able to identify the issue causing this and are scheduling a hotfix for tomorrow, November 4 beginning at 4am EDT on the PC megaservers. This will require downtime but we anticipate it only taking a couple hours to complete. During this time, we will be doing a forced respec on all Champion Points. Please take this time to jot down your point allocations! This will not affect your abilities or attribute points – just Champion Points.
Note that when first logging in after the hotfix, you’ll receive an in-game notification that Champion Points have been reset and the system has been revamped. Don't worry, we haven't done another revamp! This is just a carryover from Update 29.
Until this hotfix gets rolled out, we can assure you that no accounts that spent unearned Champion Points will be banned, so you can proceed with playing normally in the meantime. Additionally, we can confirm this will not be an issue for Update 32 launch on consoles.
Thank you to everyone who brought this to our attention.
