-Corrected issue in which players in same party entered different instances of a map when they should be in the same instance.
-/stuck teleports you to a last known good position that you were located before being stuck. This is new behavior for /stuck and may have a few bugs still to work out in special cases.
-Added new mission type “Targets of Opportunity” – Players will find as they battle the Bane that Targets of Opportunity (ToO) are revealed. Objectives of ToO Missions will reveal themselves as they arise. Rewards for ToO Missions include special titles for completion. Completing all ToO's on a continent will reward a Clone Credit.

General – displays all text except all global channels (above) and combat
Global – ONLY shows the 3 global channels

Game Balance
