Carbine updated the PTR today and that comes with a new set of patch notes. Check them out below and let us know in the comments if you've noticed anything worthwhile in the newest PTR patch! Carbine also made another announcement today regarding how they'll be updating the PTR and and servers. Basically they'll be updating the PTR first with a patch and after some time and bugs are squished, that patch will be released on live. This is a bit different to how they used to do the updates, as the bug fix patches were never really released on the PTR and would cause more bugs in the long run. It's all great news and once we finally get the megaservers they are working on, WildStar's future will be looking even brighter.
