Notes

• During the Lost City of Neftet event Nalicana was updated to now accept Blank Augmentation Gem's in exchange for 15,000 Luminance. This was later lowered to 10,000 Lumiance.
• The Aura of Mana Flow, and Aura of Mana Infusion both incorrectly list a rating increase of +1 per level obtained. This is incorrect, they both actually increase by 5 per level.
