We've just introduced the Lava Aura Effect which replaces the standard effect of an Aura gem with a burning hot and molten one. 
We're continuing to work on improvements for recent content, based on your feedback. We're planning to release the 3.6.2 patch by the end of this working week, which contains a lot of Betrayal changes as well as whatever Synthesis ones are ready. 
At the beginning of a new league we often showcase league-themed concept art as a sneak peek to the development process. As is tradition, for today's news we've prepared a preview of several pieces of artwork and 3d modelling created by our art team for the Synthesis expansion.
The Glimmerwood Mystery Box has been received very well by our community. As an appreciation for your continued support, we're making the soundtrack of this Mystery Box available as a free download. Enjoy!Is there any patch fix regarding not being able to do any league mechanics?
Yes
Will the stats on existing Watcher Eyes be changed also?
Yes
Tomorrow (Friday NZT), we're planning to release Patch 3.6.1 which includes a change to the "30% increased Maximum total Recovery per second from Energy Shield Leech while affected by Zealotry" modifier found on the Watcher's Eye Unique Jewel. This modifier unintentionally went out with a value six times higher than intended which is making it much more powerful than intended.
We try to avoid nerfs mid-league but we feel the power of this item warrants an emergency change. We are extremely sorry to anyone that this has negatively affected. We want to give you as much notice as we can before any more item sales are made.

So what's your favorite gif subreddit? ;)
Did the real Bex get replaced by that interactive desktop robot that responds with gifs?
What if the real Bex is a robot that responds with gifs? You don't know.
Bex: *looking at memes all day*
Chris: "Bex what are you doing looking at memes"
Bex: "MaNaGinG tHe CoMmuNiTeE"
:D
Off-topic, but any news on the Glimmerwood boxes? My points are lonely and wish to be returned to their creators

But watcher's eye its whats important here , srs bussiness.
Do you know if there is any great places to go scuba diving maybe around there? Or maybe take a few days trip for?
There are a plethora of good places to take a trip to in New Zealand it just depends on what you want to do. Here's one of our most famous diving spots (it's about 3-4 hours from where the convention is) http://diving.co.nz/poor-knights-islands
How is the event, the venue and the surrounding area with regards to accessibility? Is it easy to reach with a wheelchair, can the building easily be navigated with one?
I’m pretty sure the building is fully accessible but I’m already in the middle of investigating this to be sure.
Got a ticket, and two of my guild mates are confirmed to be making Exilecon as well.
Hoping to swing by and visit Rotorua and some nature reserves as well. We've been planning for this as far back as initial interest was being polled by GGG. Always wanted to explore New Zealand. Absolutely over the moon here.
Escaping the frozen wastelands of the Midwest in November is a plus.
For what it's worth: the ticket sale process has gone far better than other types tickets I've gotten like local sporting events, concerts and conventions with scalping going on.
Rotorua is a great place to visit and there's plenty of beautiful reserves around that part of the country!
Is there going to be a virtual ticket?
Also, mtx boxes pleasssse
The announcement keynote and race finals will be streamed online for everyone to watch for free. No digital ticket is required.
