Known Issues
- Particle effects are removed when tailoring a shield that has them. This will be a permanent "bug". Addressed by Sev:
One limitation of our item art system is that you'll have to relog to get particle effects to show up on the new shield. - Severlin
- Old style mattekar coat cannot be tailored.
