We apologise for the delay. Read More.

Tomorrow (Friday NZT), we're planning to release Patch 3.6.1 which includes a change to the "30% increased Maximum total Recovery per second from Energy Shield Leech while affected by Zealotry" modifier found on the Watcher's Eye Unique Jewel. This modifier unintentionally went out with a value six times higher than intended which is making it much more powerful than intended. We try to avoid nerfs mid-league but we feel the power of this item warrants an emergency change. We are extremely sorry to anyone that this has negatively affected. We want to give you as much notice as we can before any more item sales are made. Read More.
