On the Firery rift quest under "Arantanosh's Fate
return to the ..
listen to V'tieru the gatekeeper
next line reads Speak with Semeneth in Dralk should that not be Chiconis ?

The Festival Tent footprints appears to have remained unchanged despite the update. Investigating it.

In the fiery rift, many mobs could not be damaged:

Guardian of Rage
Mote of Rage
The scorpion things

I tried with and with the stone of seeking effect up, as well as with and without it socketed. Dots such as rending worked. Spiked Scales. Nothing else worked, tried many damage converting claws, with life, blight, nature, spirit, ice, crush damage types. None helped. Tried no claw at all.

I could Damage the Flame Horrors and the Lost Elders.

The Firery Rift looks great now with all the walls in place , other then the changes I had mentioned else where to make the Stone of Seeking stand out more and give it a beveled appearance , is there anything that can be done some other way to active the Stone of Seeking , as it is now you have to un-equip the scale remove the "crystal" right click to use it then put it back in the socket and then put the scale back on, Also is there any way that Configure Crystals be it on a scale or claw, can be placed some place other then right next to add to hoard, I wont get into what has happened to a DCOM and couple Fangs of Fury crystals. Great job on and in the Fiery Rift so far but the Guardian of Rage is not a solo'able mob

The Guardian of Rage is not intended to be a soloable mob, so that's good that he isn't.

The Semblance of Fire was not properly converting your damage. We'll get a quick delta out this coming week to fix it. Thanks.

Fixing the Flame Horrors and Lost Elders. Thanks.
