While we wait for Crushbone to return after nearly 5 hours of downtime, it looks like there are a few glitches in today’s Grandmaster spell rollout.

So the patch that was delayed a week to stomp bugs has…bad bugs?
Quelle surprise.
I am sorry, but this makes me laugh pretty hard. I know it is hard to get all the bugs out, but this one is quite funny. Not sure what they tested on, but it does not seem to be a representation of the actual live servers. lol.
I’m guessing they probably didn’t perform every “idiot bug test” (IBT) that players could think of. Who would have thought someone would pay SC to upgrade a spell to GM that was already chosen as their free GM choice? Funny thing about those sorts of bugs is that they are seldom covered fully and often cascade problems elsewhere.
They’ll get it fixed. ♡♡
They chose to pay SC to upgrade a spell to GM that was available as a GM choice, so they could then switch to another one.
