=== [[Known Issues]] ===
=== [[Known Issues]] ===
* There is an inconsistency with the field generators inside the [[Forgotten Tunnels]] with 2 on the south side and 1 on the north side, it appears the doubling on the south side was an error.
* The intended change to move the portal for the [[Castle of Lord Mhoire Quest]] to the west statue caused the statue to disappear. For this month there is a permanent portal in the middle of [[Hebian-To]] at 39.0S 83.3E that takes you to the [[Mhoire Castle Courtyard]].
* When the [[Ruined Amulet of the Two Hander]] is applied to [[Sunstone Gauntlets]] the icon and name do not change.
