Continuous Zone Farming: Slashing ambient Blood Echoes that manifest in your zone will no longer interrupt your combat loop.
Offline Echo Manifestations: Idle and offline hunting now simulates Blood Echo encounters, awarding full kill tracking, boss XP, and guaranteed Blood Core drops.
Combat Consumable Stability: Fixed an issue where rapidly switching gear during combat could cause food or elixir charges to desync.
Sanctuary & Quality of Life
