Hi, with the launch of Endless Conquest it seems that population has gone up in-game a bit but I think it could go up even more with the lessening of some more restrictions and some changes to bounty point costs and gain. If players could get into RvR faster I think they’d be more willing to come back. Any chance we will see a lessening of the costs and maybe restrictions?
We’re monitoring feedback constantly and have been making several adjustments already to levelling rates as well as some other fixes. With this Grab Bag we’re also happy to announce the following Live Hot Fix notes. As time goes on and we receive more feedback we’ll continue to make adjustments as needed!

With the new Veteran Reward trophies being tradeable, does that mean the old ones we had are also tradeable or can they be made tradable?
Yes, the trophies given out for Veteran rewards are all tradable which retroactively affects any of those trophies that already existed!
I have a question about bard class. What does Charisma do for a bard? How does this stat help a bard? Does it affect spells?
Charisma is the Bard’s casting stat (as well as the Skald and Minstrel). It affects their damage done with their instant DDs as well as their power pool and healing effectiveness.
What type of weapon is Never-ending flame? This elemental vs slash-thrust confuses me. What does elemental mean on weapons?
Never-ending flame deals heat damage. Elemental simply means that the weapon is a non-physical (slash, crush, and thrust) damage type. This means that when you hit someone with the Never-ending flame, it deals heat damage to the target and the target uses their heat resistance to calculate how much damage should be done. This can be beneficial to use in some scenarios (like when the target is debuffed of their heat resistance) and disadvantageous in others (like when the target has high heat resistance).
Additionally certain armors have bonuses and penalties against certain damage types. Our armor resist table has more information on those.
Does a weapon with a damage proc break a peel? If I use a backpeel, will the dmg proc be applied after the snare effect?
Yes, weapon-based procs always apply after the style’s effect. A damage proc from an item will break a style’s snare.
That's it for this week's GB - see you all in the frontiers! :)
