Ok so as many of you know, there was a problem with new XVr patch, so we had to revert back to the older version. The problem was that charms were not dropping (and probably something much deeper than that, maybe uniques were not dropping at all). Also some problems with experience display. How the hell can something go so wrong with just drop rates tweak? I'll explain:
Basically the game reads .bin files, which are compiled .txt files. Because I lost the source files for XVr, what I did was generate only the bin files I needed using 2016 patch as a base (treasureclassex and itemratio). You would expect this to work because drops have not been touched in 2016 patch yet, so what could go wrong? Well apparently blizzard doesn't like me mixing files so weird things happen. Who knows what other fucked up things could happen with this patch that we'll never find out because luckily aahz and greg were still around to revert back to the functional XVr. Anyway, where I'm going at is, the errors were completely random, it's not like I "forgot to activate charms" or some stupid bullshit like that
Long story short - I cancelled my plans for saturday and instead I'll stay home re-making XVr patch - now please stop crying in the shoutbox

Drop rates are raised=nice
Off topic: Will the new uniques/rw's be in the doc's? I just have to know.
They will be probably realm-only rw and realm-only stuff does not go into docs.
