## Live Events

Legends of Giving

* With the Event setup now finalized and all final artwork and text in place, Legends of Giving will remain active in Insiders for continued testing, and all prior progress has now been reset.

## Known Issues

Eternal Guard

* The Eternal Guard may become stuck inside parts of the environment, preventing them from behaving as intended.

Smugglers’ Hideouts in The Devil’s Roar

* At Ruby’s Fall, players can become stuck between a barrel and the mannequin when jumping in the Hideout.

Text & Localisation

* Some Commendation names are currently showing placeholder text instead of their proper titles.

‘Shores of Gold’

* One of the puzzle levers in this Tall Tale is not responding, which prevents the Tale from being completed.

Legends of Giving

* All Pirate Legends should now be consistently granted the Generous Gift Sails and Legends of Giving Emote when starting a session.

* The sarcophagus’ purple glow now fades correctly once opened, without showing visual errors as players move around it.

* The Eternal Guard’s violet inner glow now looks correct when viewed up close on PlayStation®5.

Trident of the Banished

* Players can no longer shove merfolk backwards through the water by hitting them with a fully charged Trident.

Sanctuaries of the Banished

* Loot inside Sanctuaries of the Banished now appears naturally once the door opens, rather than popping into view too early.

* The amount of Gold Hoarder loot at the Brimstone Rock and Flame’s End Sanctuaries has been corrected to the intended amounts.

Environment

* Players should no longer become stuck when jumping onto gem clusters on Flintlock Peninsula.

* Rocks at Port Merrick are now solid and can no longer be walked through.

* A painting on the tavern’s upper floor at Port Merrick now sits flush with the wall instead of merging into it.

* 'Shores of Gold' - A crack on the ground on Tribute Peak during this Tall Tale has been smoothed out.

Visual and Audio

* Shadows while burying items now sync correctly with the player’s animation.

* The Chest of Banished Tribute Disguise now matches the size of the real chest.

* Players climbing inside the Cartographer Cannons will now retain their intended Field of View.

* The ‘A Dark Discovery’ reward now displays with the correct frame both on the item and in the menu.

User Interface

* The Festive Hat Bundle now contains the correct selection of hats, rather than two identical red ones.

* The final page of the Pets tab in the Pirate Emporium now fills properly, instead of showing empty gaps.
