With today’s hotfix, players will be able to queue for all of the Fated LFR wings once they have at least 230 ilevel (was 240). The Jeweled Signet of Malendrus has received adjustments to reduce an unintended damage increase, and Cosmic and Sacred Creation Impetus can no longer be used on on Fated tier modules from the Sepulcher of the First Ones raid but can still be used on the tier pieces themselves.

Dungeons and Raids
- Fated Raids
- Reduced the minimum Item Level to queue for all Fated Raid Finder wings to 230 (was 240).
- Developers’ note: This restriction was too punishing given Fated LFR’s importance in providing new and returning players with an intermediary step to engage in Season 4’s endgame activities. We believe the power increases afforded from the Fated Powers themselves more than make up for this item level gap, so groups shouldn’t have a vastly more difficult time completing encounters.

Items and Rewards
- Reduced the damage increase on Jeweled Signet of Malendrus by 74%.
- Developers’ note: The spell effect changes made to Jeweled Signet of Malendrus for the release of Legion Timewalking inadvertently also caused it to increase the damage of abilities that scale with weapon damage. In some cases, the overall power gains were far beyond what was intended. This hotfix retains the current functionality but adjusts the tuning accordingly.
- Fixed an issue where a Cosmic or Sacred Creation Impetus could be used directly on Fated tier modules from Sepulcher of the First Ones; the Fated tier armor created by the modules can still be upgraded.
