Notes on Uncertain Attribution

A few entries reference terms I couldn't confidently tie to a specific class or race — flagging in case you have inside context:

  • "Pellegorn" backstab grounding times increased from 30/60 to 45/90 (05/09/2026 ✅) and a flat 60-second grounding added (03/31/2026 ✅) — reads more like a mob/dropper name than a player race or class, so likely a PvE balance change rather than class/race.
  • "Riposte" updated to a Defense cut instead of an Expose to Crushing (05/26/2026 ✅) — no class specified in the source text; may be a general combat mechanic available across multiple classes.
  • Throwing range increased to 50 (02/10/2025 ✅) — throwing appears to be a cross-class weapon skill (see "Master of Throwing" mastery rune references elsewhere), not tied to one class.
