Hotfixes

• Preserved Contaminant

Corrupting Your Season 4 Crafted Items

We intend to soon deploy a hotfix that will make Season 4 crafted items corruptable using the new Contaminants. This will not change how they initially drop (they still won’t be initially Corrupted), but they’ll now be valid targets for the Preserved Contaminant.

This will, of course, exclude items that cannot ever be Corrupted, such as engineering goggles (Azerite) or alchemist stones (trinkets).

We’re still working on the issue of items that were cleansed prior to this new system. We’ll update you further on that in the next couple of days.

Ah so there is still hope for my previously cleansed 475 weapons and such. Great to hear.

While I hope that ends up being the case, this post seems to be strictly about crafted items, not older M+ drops.

That Machinima bugged me, mostly because of that beard, looked way off.0
