Bug Fixes:

• Fixed an issue where using auto sort on a personal storage tab would prevent the player from being able to interact with items in the other tabs.
  
• Fixed an issue where summons would incorrectly benefit from the same damage and health buffs as enemies in Infinite Difficulty. Summons will now scale in power in-line with non-summon skills as intended.
  
• Fixed an issue where summons would be so enthralled by the might of Ohsara that they would not attack her, and would instead stand around gawping.
  
• Fixed an issue where summons would become rather shy, giggle inappropriately, and not attack the "Lambach Tentacle" enemy.
  
• Fixed an issue where summons would sometimes not move into melee range, and would instead stand in place whilst valiantly attacking the air.
  
• Fixed various instances where ASMs for multiple skills which increase ailment damage were only doing so for the primary target.
  
• Fixed an issue where some variants of Zephyron, Herald of Change, would allow a bit too much change and give players access to two elemental types of skills at once.
  
• Fixed an issue where clicking on a portal at the same time as triggering certain skills would cause the player to teleport to various nooks and crannies in Stormfall.
  
• Fixed an issue in multiplayer where Bladestorm's SFX and VFX would persist for the host if used by another player as they leave the host's game.
  
• Fixed further instances of T-posing NPCs on Consoles.
  
• Fixed an issue where Sirkis' Breath of Fire VFX would persist after failing the event.
  
• Fixed an issue which allowed the player to open their inventory at Demetra's shop.
  
• Fixed an issue where switching tabs at Dematra's shop would cause the minimap to disappear.
  
• Fixed an issue on gamepad where the inventory wheel highlight would "stick" if the player chose an item incompatible with a selected City Building Project.
  
• Fixed an issue where portals were missing their looping SFX.
  
• Added an audio cue when unlocking additional storage space.
  
• Removed the timeout function when attempting to ping a game server. This should resolve a niche issue where some players were returned to the main menu.
