Shards of Domination are where players' opinions differ. Some are happy about the additional power and the fact that the equipment from the raid is upgraded. Others, on the other hand, are bothered by the high random factor when obtaining the shards. The latter has now been improved a bit, as Sylvanas will always drop a shard for you.

Many players have also had the bitter experience of accidentally destroying one of the shards. This is because the way they work is quite similar to that of normal gems. They are used in exactly the same way as the familiar stones. However, you should always remove them with the Soulfire Chisel if you want to change the shard. If you overwrite an old shard with a new one, exactly what happens with sockets used to happen: the old shard was destroyed. Of course, this is extremely bitter, since the shards can't be bought for a few gold in the auction house.

But this is no longer possible. The shards are indestructible and can only be removed with a chisel. Inserting a shard into the slot where there is already a shard is no longer possible. This is made possible by a new hotfix.

Items and Rewards

• Shards of Domination
  • Shards of Domination can no longer be inserted into an occupied socket.
    • Developers' notes: We've made this change to prevent accidentally losing a shard by inserting another shard in its place without extracting it first. You can purchase a Soulfire Chisel to extract embedded shards from Bonesmith Heirmir in Korthia for 2500 Stygia.
  • Fixed a bug which counted critical overhealing towards Winds of Winter's accumulated value. Only effective healing and damage are intended to count towards the effect.

Torghast, Tower of the Damned

• Torments
  • Phantasmic Amalgamation's spawned with Unstable Phantasma no longer spawn near the party members on a lower floor if there are party members on a higher floor.
