The Gathering locations in Veteran Regions (i.e Regions older than 360 days) will now consistently spawn higher-level Resource locations based on the Region Age.
Event Changes
Updated the Spoils of Victory rewards from the Region Wars Event to feature more high-level Resources and Warpstone locations, along with higher-level Foes and Armies, but slightly less dense spawns of Foes and Armies to not interfere with other Live Event schedules.
The Scourge of Chaos Event has been improved with an increase in Resource nodes of 11 and 12, and also an overall increase to level 13 resource appearing in the Siege of Altdorf.
The number of gatherable Warpstone locations in the Warpstone Rain Event and the Warpstone Deluge Event has been considerably increased, and the rate at which these locations respawn has been increased.
The Boon of Slaanesh Event has been improved with an increase in Resource nodes and their respawn rates throughout the event. More consistently higher-level resources will also now be available during this Event.
Bug Fixes
Fixed the incorrect icon for Construction in Champion Skills.
Fixed region relocate restrictions not appearing in the Relocate panel.
Fixed some stats not being grouped correctly for a simpler display.
Fixed defending Warlord not displaying in the War Camp troops breakdown pop-up.
