THRONE AND LIBERTY Update 2.4.0 downtime will begin at 10:30 p.m. PT (5:30 a.m. UTC) on April 2 and last approximately 3.5 hours. It includes a new system to manage your runes, adjustments to Guild and Riftstone Boss loot, and more. Find the full list of changes listed below.
RUNE MANAGEMENT
A new Rune Book UI has been added to the Item section of the Main Menu.
Instead of obtaining multiple copies of each rune as an item, obtaining runes now unlocks and levels up a single unified entry in the Rune Book UI - these unified basic Rune can be equipped to multiple items at once. Chaos Runes can only be equipped to one item at a time.
Rune Synergies have been simplified by removing the various quality tiers and providing a single maximized Synergy benefit for each rune color combination.
The Rune listings allow you to search, favorite, and filter through the list of your available Runes.
When selecting an item to modify equipped runes, the rune list will only show runes that are eligible to equip to that item type.
Drag and drop Runes from your collection list to the Item's unlocked Rune slots in the top section of the UI to equip Runes to an item.
The rune list now displays the level, stat benefit, and stat value of each collected rune along with a progress bar that displays along the bottom of each Rune entry.
This progress bar acts as a Rune leveling progress guarantee; now when you receive Runes of the same level as the one you have collected, this progress bar increases until it fills.
Once filled, that rune will increase to the next level; setting a maximum amount of times, you can receive an individual rune of the same level before receiving a rune level increase.
Chaos Runes: A maximum of 100 Chaos Runes can be stored in the Rune UI. Chaos Runes you don't intend to use can be deleted from the list, freeing up a slot.
Rune Fragments will no longer be able to be acquired, and any existing rune fragments in your inventories or storage will eventually be removed!
GUILD RAID AND RIFTSTONE BOSSES
Adjusted the loot drop tables for Talandre Guild Raid and Riftstone bosses (Daigon, Leviathan, Pakilo Naru, Manticus Brothers) to include a guaranteed T2 Armor or Accessory drop on each kill in addition to the current drop pools.
MATERIAL TRANSMUTATION
Implemented options to auto-add designated material types and grades to your Material Transmutation progress.
Added the ability to split stacks of items with Shift-Left Click when adding items to Material Transmutation.

Molgras: Festive Trees now respawn 10 seconds after Molgras returns to the center of the arena.
Hall of Illusion: Lionhead: Fixed an issue that could cause the Zone of Pain effect to apply even though your interaction was interrupted.
WAR GAMES

Can now edit the display name of War Game Lobbies.
Minor adjustment to the color displayed for Yellow Team to avoid overlap with the yellow used for Friendly guilds.
