Known Issues
This isn't technically an issue, but in the release notes it indicated that in The Jester quest, he would now reward you with a "jester card" for killing the jester when repeating the quest. This was not referring to the Jester Card, rather that you will get a random card from amongst the jester cards (more commonly referred to as GY cards in game).
Even though you can apply Salvaged Ivory to the Visage of Menilesh, if you drop it or mule it, the pick-up timer of 13 days is still in place and will prevent you from picking it back up.
"Master's Lectern cast Enervation of the Heart on you, but it is surpassed by Avalenne's Blessing" - the debuff is surpassed by a buff.

Was there an earthquake in Yanshi? Or are the statues alive?
In the Falatacot Visitor's Alcove, when you enter the room with the Falatacot Warden Statue, you see this message: "The state [sic] looks as if it has been tampered with...its eyes are dull." -- should be "statue".
Hotfix
