    One guy in our group got a couple of auras. Maybe it's just horrible drop rate.

    One of my alts received an aura, but I had the mission.
    At least auras seem to be tradable, though broker's empty at the moment.

    Are the new rewards from the raids only available in the normal/elite version of them? Or in the event version too?

    Is the new raid drops also permanent?

    I got a couple of uplink devices in a spam run, so... it's just a bad drop rate, I guess.

    Just tried to kill Metal Man-Bat, the lag was so intense that his health bar was only about 1/4 down when I got the rewards for killing him. It took another 60+ seconds before all the fighting animations of the players around me stopped. Following that, my game crashed. lol - super fun day ahead.

    All versions drop the new items.

    I've tried fighting the bounty a few times so far and it is really hard to see what is going on. I've seen an arrow appear over top other players and I'm wondering what mechanic that is supposed to be tied to. Is that the direction he is about to attack?

    The game keeps dropping me out of combat while in mid-fight.

    WAIT! Did I read this correctly? A new side-kick device???

    WAY-TO-GO!

    (Just don't tell my current sidekick. Besides, it's time he struck out on his own. I hear they could use some help in Bludhaven).

    Perhaps the same mechanic we see using the overhead arrow in False Idols?

    I asked the Designer who made this. It indicates a spore has targeted you and is following you. Messaging that you can then reposition the spore if you so choose.

    We're looking into the lag spikes/disconnects.

    Thanks Charon. What is this "green wavy aura" supposed to be?

    It is really hard to see what is going on with all the player animations firing.

    I keep seeing other weird bugs. I was just in one fight where the adds kept spawning after the boss had died. Sometimes the adds like to stick around long after the boss has died.

    ...... I love killing the same dude 50 times in a row....

    literally the first thing I did when I got back from a two year break was kill the Obot.

    Again.

    Killed the new world Boss 49x and only got 1 drop Battle Lust Right Hand. No one else in my party got any drop at all. Is the drop rate supposed to be that low, 1/400+?

    When can we get an artifact so we can walk through npcs while in combat? So many sidekicks and pets now. We can't even move anymore. Can we maybe get a quality of life fix out soon?
