Updated April 12:

Quick update on what’s in the pipeline:

We’re focusing on building a new update specifically to address your inventory not responding correctly under various circumstances, as well as fixing Sprint toggle.

Inventory management issues include being unable to access chests and vaults, becoming unable to equip armor, multiple items becoming highlighted in your inventory, and more.

The current timeline we’re looking at for this patch release is approximately 2 weeks, assuming all goes well with getting these bugs squashed, build cooked, and patch certified. We’ll keep you updated as soon as we know more. Thanks folks. (also xposted as a reply to this topic)

Greetings, Exiles. It’s never a dull moment here, is it?

We’ve been following along our channels with the releases of Age of War - Chapter 4 and today’s patch and know there’s a lot of work still to do.

Here’s what we’re seeing from you and what else we’re aware of and working on for future updates (in no particular order):

General

• Not all Bearer-type thralls had their HP nerfs reversed
• Some items and objects return incorrect amounts of materials when dismantled
• Zingaran Mercenary armor requires heavy padding despite being medium armor
• “Unable to start crafting item” error when attempting to construct a Stygian Siege Foundation
• Redeemed Legion armor set missing option to repair
• Character does not continue sprinting even with Sprint Toggle enabled
• Player characters and thralls sometimes sink into or through building pieces such as foundations
• Foundations cannot be dismantled if placed too deep into terrain
• Sepumeru NPCs do not respond correctly to being assaulted with a truncheon
• Some bosses do not draw their equipped weapon and only engage in fisticuffs
• Alumit Anwilbrow (T4 Blacksmith) does not apply intended durability and weight bonuses to crafted tools
• Server crashes on Isle of Siptah
• Werehyena Ambushers do not appear for characters over level 60
• Malodorous Grand Champion Lure does not count down while offline if left in player inventory (If on a dedicated server, you can work around this by putting it in a chest before logging off, for now)
• Brandishing an item while walking causes your character to run, and cannot walk until item is sheathed
• Followers aggro and attack friendly Werehyena followers (opposite problem as before, kinda)

Inventory management

• Issues retrieving or moving items between inventories and containers (including benches, chests, and player characters)
• Item stacks cannot be split via dragging with sorting enabled
• Inventory becomes uncooperative when merging stacks of items while Sorting and Filtering are enabled (e.g. cannot equip armor, wrong items selected, etc.)

Gamepad-specific

• Issues navigating inventory screens with gamepad
• Battle Pass menu and giving orders to thralls share an input by default and conflict with each other

Please note this list is not exhaustive, nor does it necessarily mean every single issue will be addressed in one fell swoop. Let us know of any other issues you encounter with Chapter 4 and today’s patch in this topic. Thank you.

It’s after-hours so I won’t be able to get a full response immediately, but I’ll make sure to forward these.

Re: Bearers - The long and the short of it is they’re disproportionately tanky compared to other thralls and that’s not the direction we want to take them. That said, some context for the change was with an upcoming feature in mind - one that would allow you to recover a defeated thrall (with limitations) to mitigate or avoid losing someone you invested a lot of time in. We’re not quite ready to unwrap this feature yet, but stay tuned.

We are aware of at least one commonly-reported issue involving foundations (see above list - players and thralls can sometimes sink through them) but I am not sure what you are referring to. Could you please clarify?

Sorry, the second half of my reply to you was directed at a different post. We are aware of both of the issues you mention as separate bugs. I believe we plugged the spots reported that instantly kill you on EL (like the rock underpass near the jungle/swamp) but if there’s more, please let me know.
