When players join the Death's Leviathan Encounter in progress, sometimes the upon the boss death, the encounter does not end and stops progression. This is not intended.

The Strid River Valley Map is missing the river part.
[Status] We have identified the issue to restore the water to the river. In tomorrow’s hotfix (Oct. 30) we have temporarily removed the Strid River Valley Battleground from the Battleground Queue options until we are able to get the ship floating in water appropriately, with slaughterfish.

Chaosball Cannot Be Picked Up In A Transformed State

Players who are transformed into forms other than their standard humanoid form will no longer be able to pick up Chaos Balls which also Transform you into Behemoths or Vampire Lords. Standard Chaos Balls can be picked up while transformed if the Chaosball is in its native location, but not in the wild if you are transformed.
[Status] This is currently working as intended because we found issues during PTS would be problematic on the live server. This was the best way we could address it in the time we had before launch. However, we plan to address this in a future update to be consistent regardless of your transformation status when interacting with the Chaosball.
