Worldcore Fragment Hotfixed in Season of Discovery - Item Required for Rune No Longer Soulbound
Worldcore Fragments, an item that is key in solving four Rune discoveries for four classes, have been hotfixed — these items are no longer soulbound in Season of Discovery.
Warlocks, Mages, Priests, and Paladins have voiced their frustrations at the extremely low droprate of Worldcore Fragment during the hunt for Runes in Phase 3. These four classes each share a Rune acquisition method with each other, which requires several Worldcore Fragment and a lot of time spent in front of various Fel Portals such as Fel Tear and Fel Sliver.
Now, those with extra gold and not a lot of extra time will be able to purchase these Fragments off the Auction House, as they are no longer soulbound — and their drop rate has been increased substantially.
While it is too soon to tell what the newly adjusted droprate is, players are reporting receiving more than one Worldcore Fragment at once from Imps sent into a Fel Portal. This will likely make it substantially easier due to the increased amount on the market for Paladins and Priests in particular, who voiced their dissatisfaction on having to pay exorbitant amounts of gold to Mages and Warlocks in order to complete their Runes.
