    Event Testing – Whitestrake’s Mayhem
    The Three Banners march to war once more! As with previous years, you can get your Scroll of Pelinal’s Ferocity from the introductory quest with Predicant Maera or use one leftover from last time if you have it. You will receive Pelina’s Boon Boxes from completing daily quests in Cyrodiil or Imperial City districts, or as a bonus reward in Rewards for the Worthy mails you receive. Event ticket distribution remains as it was, with 2 tickets coming from the first Cyrodiil daily quest completed each day, and an additional 1 ticket for the first Imperial City district daily completed each day.
    • This season, boon boxes contain the usual offerings plus a chance to receive an unbound, tradeable style page for the Sancre Tor Paragon weapon styles. If you’ve already earned a Sancre Tor Paragon page that day, you can instead earn pages from the returning Tools of Domination weapon styles.
    • Imperial City bosses have a chance to drop pages for the Sancre Tor Paragon armor style. If you’ve already earned one that day, you can instead find Gloamsedge armor style pages from last Mayhem.
    • You will also be able to complete the Meadowbreeze Memories morphing collectible skin with this event.
    • This season’s Bags of Veteran’s Glory can contain the following items and will always give you something you don’t already have. All contents of these bags are bound to you.
      • Legion Zero Armor Style Pages
      • Legion Zero Vigiles Armor Style Pages
      • Second Legion Armor Style Pages
      • Standard-Bearer Emotes
      • Standard-Bearer Staves and Shields Style Pages
      • Ebonsteel Knight Armor Style Pages
      • Black Drake Armor Style Pages
      • Battle-Scarred Body and Face Markings
      • Black Drake Warpaint Body and Face Markings
      • House Dufort Banneret Armor Style Pages
    • This Mayhem continues a passive +100% Tel Var Stone gain throughout the life of the event, no scroll or buff required. Please note that this does not affect Tel Var Stone gains from slaying players.

    bdhv2cv6vd0m.png
    General
    • Fixed an issue where many passives would fail to send their information to your game client after reloading from zone transitions or relogging.

      • The Imperfect Ring
        • Rune of Displacement (morph): 
          • This morph’s pull function will now only target enemies between 2 to 8 meters away from the initial target. The Damage over Time will continue to apply to all enemies within 8 meters.

    a84lbtmumab4.png
    General

    • Sharp-As-Night can no longer be the target of necromantic corpse consuming abilities when he has temporarily fallen in battle.

    Abilities
    • Azandar
      • The Triune Word: Fixed an issue where this ability could cause health desyncs.
      • Vigorous Tentacular Eruption:
        • Fixed an issue where the damage and Major Vulnerability would not consistently apply to all enemies hit with this ability.
        • Fixed a typo within the tooltip text.

    • Bastion
      • Searing Weapons: Fixed an issue where Searing Weapons could stack with itself if Bastion was given enough cooldown reduction.

    g7sw6y0ffqke.png
    Dungeons

    PvP Sourced Sets
    • Mara's Balm: Increased the cooldown of this set's cleanse to 30 seconds, up from 15.
      Developer Comment:
      We're increasing the cooldown here in hopes that this set no longer is such a hard counter to Damage over Time focused builds, where it can still help ease their pressure and demand attackers to recast them more frequently, while ensuring it has a slightly longer cooldown than most of those effects have for duration.
