    From Jan 3 update notes: "Corrected a bug on Umbra, Shadow Screecher that caused its applied stats to be lower then intended."

    OK thank you.


    However.......

    I got my Kralalik the Hivewatcher as a drop, and at the time, it was a massive upgrade to the old Umbra which had 6k potency. The Hivewatcher was nearly a doubling in potency at the time.

    Other people bought theirs SLR for 100K-500K, I saw one going for more than a million plat.

    I spent real $$ unlocking levels on the Hivewatcher.

    The potency difference between them:

    Hivewatcher 11.5k

    Umbra: 16.5k

    There's a definite unhappy feeling about this.

    Could people with collector's edition get a mount training bauble with at least 7 days in it?

    It occurs to me that even if I buy the upgrade to premium, it only gives me about +1200 potency, so that's not really a solution.

    I'm currently working on qualifying with enough potency for Heroics. So this is a central issue for me. I can make the potency barding, but I don't know how much I can invest in unlocking levels anymore. I kind of blew my budget on that.

    Polite Bump

    Every expac I expect to pay another $20 in unlocking things or finishing the last few days of research. I budgeted for it and it was misspent because of an upcoming change I couldn't have predicted.

    Changing to Skygge would give me about 1200pot, but it would force me to remove two bardings which are giving me 1200pot. Not a help.

    My husband got an overseer reward for a 10-day mount training. Could everyone with Collector's get such a training buff? Or everyone who has a Hivewatcher mount and is a buyer of Collector's edition?

    I'm happy for the players who got the stat increase on the CE mount but it was a slap in the face to those who paid for the PE. Skygge is barely an upgrade And given all the issues with the 'mount' thats actually an illusion I might just use Umbra.
