Greetings Everyone, The Spirits Beyond Midterm is here, and with it comes eight new Legendary runes, a Rating reset, and more! General The Spirits Beyond Midterm Pack has been added to the Pox Nora Marketplace. This pack will give 1 of the 8 new Legendary Spirits Beyond Midterm runes along with 2 Platinum Tokens. The Spirits Beyond Midterm Bundle has been added to the marketplace, which contains 3 Spirits Beyond midterm Legendary runes along with 5 platinum tokens. All player Ratings have been reset as part of this Midterm. League progression will remain unchanged, so players can continue their progression. New Wallpapers have been added to PoxNora.com. New Legendary Runes Arroyo Riftwalker Frostwing Slayer Mother of Frond Myx Incubator Naria Strangler Swift Current Valdaci Shieldwarden Zombie Rotwrapper Mechanic Changes Change the Knockback mechanic so if a champion with no AP, when they would be knockbacked into a chasm, they take 5 DMG per Knockback square instead. It now functions like being knocked into an object. Bug Fixes Fixed various game crashes. Fixed an issue when the ability Eternal Life triggers where it was giving the champion created the default upgrades instead of selected upgrades. Fixed an issue where the ability Dragon Form was not properly granting the ability Flamestrike. Fixed an issue where the ability Dispel would work on champions with Impenetrable, Fixed an exploit that allowed untradeable champions to be traded by using the increase bid option. Fixed an issue with the condition Locus Swarmed where it would persist if the affected champion was in the AOE when effect ended. Fixed an issue where the equipment Akakios's Blade is not giving Flamestrike when it is equipped on Draksars. Fixed an issue where the ability Stasis would trigger if it was given to an already deployed champion. It should now trigger only when a champion comes into play. Runes that were intended for only Single Player campaigns can no longer be used in Ranked Play. In most cases these were obtained by exploits that have now been fixed. Fixed an issue with the ability Still Life's stealthed condition would go into negative numbers and would not properly refresh when the champion did not move. Fixed an issue where Damage Over Time Immunity abilities would create a new ability that had no description when triggered. Fixed an issue where the ability Avatar was not preventing them from being targeted by the Bloodseeker ability. Fixed an issue with the ability Preparation were it was only resetting when the attack is successful.
