WildStar Patch Notes #6731

The latest WildStar build #6731 is available from June 13th, 2014, comes with a ~ 400 MB patch. Patch notes are included below:
 
General

  • Items in a guild bank will properly transfer when a new guild leader is promoted.
  • Added a way to filter guild invites.  This can be turned on from the Interface Options menu or the invites themselves.  The filter blocks invites from players who are not in your friends list or share a guild/circle/arena team/warparty with you.[/size]
  • A new report spam feature has been implemented for the Mail system.  This functions similar to the right click report feature in chat, and players will be able to smite those pesky gold spammers via this system. Buhbye spammers!
  • Clarified the realm transfer error messaging if a Player Character is the leader of a guild or a Warparty.
  • Fixed a crash that could occur during the shutdown of one instance of an instanced world.
  • Fixed a user server crash that sometime occur when a guild is disbanded.
  • Fixed a world crash related to realm transfers and character deletions.
  • Fixed an issue that could cause players to be charged multiple times when buying the Advanced or Expert Riding Skills.
  • Fixed certain issues pertaining to settlement reputations improperly reading parent faction (“The Exiles” or “The Dominion”) reputation values.
  • Lower-case j spacing has been fixed. LOOK UPON MY LOWERCASE J AND DESPAIR!
  • Subtitles on cinematics will now use word wrap.
  • There is now a new marker for when an item is not multi-redeemable, which basically means you can only use it once.
  • We will no longer display your IP Address when you are disconnected for some reason. Sorry streamers! :(
