Update 4:50 p.m. PST February 27

We deployed hotfixes to address issues with Bind-on-Equip items. Items that needed to be adjusted should now work as intended, and gear that is intended to required a player level below 90 should have a required level appropriate for its item-level.

Gear that was earned by players themselves and equipped, should once again be wearable.

Items that were generated by level 90 players and is around item level 200 will still have an equip requirement of level 90.


Today we’ve discovered an unfortunate bug in Midnight content where Bind-on-Equip items that are meant to have a minimum level requirement of 90 have been dropping with a minimum of level 80.

We’re working on a fix, and when we deploy that fix, BoE items that should have had a level 90 requirement will operate as intended.

Thank you!

Thank you for your patience!
