  • Describe the issue you are experiencing: When you are looking at other players in the social panel or in the war/invasion roster screen, hovering over them brings up a more detailed player info card. That card is supposed to show what company the player is in, but it only does so for maybe 10% of players if that. This feature has been broken for more than half a year now. I have reported it in game every single patch and it is never addressed.

  • (if a bug) How did the issue effect your gameplay: For company leaders it is incredibly frustrating to never be able to see what company other players are in unless you are standing next to them in game. It leads to increased confusion and increased gatekeeping of wars and invasions since I will only interact with people who are in contact with me via discord because the games social features are so broken/lacking.

Had 595 expertise on Great sword. Made a Gypsum cast and opened a 595 great sword… no upgrade. What is this nonsense?

Edit: Had 600 Gear Score already. I guess it snuck up on me that day and forgot to edit this.

Greatsword Infused cast still missing.
