- Sporothrix and Arum Spinosa Blueprints are now tradable!
To balance out the Weapon Blueprint drop % reduction we’ve made the Sporothrix and Arum Spinosa Blueprints tradable. The Sporothrix and Arum Spinosa parts were already Tradable, but it’s now one step further.
- Fixed the actual base Blueprint for the new Sporothrix not being in Rotation A of Deimos: Arcana Bounties. Sporothrix Blueprint is now in Rotation A at 21%.
