Example Bug Report:
  • Time: Wednesday, December 14th, at 3:30 PM GMT
  • Context: I killed an invasion in Vostigar Peaks on Deepwood and my home shard is Faeblight. I am level 70 and was not mentored.
  • Expected: I expected the invasion to advance my Wand of the Powerful active upgrade and provide rewards
  • Observed: Instead, I only received a small amount of currency and my active was not advanced
  • Repro Steps:
    • 1. Go to Vostigar Peaks 
    • 2. Make sure you have item with an active upgrade that requires killing invasions
    • 3. Kill invasions until you complete one that you do not get credit for
