- An issue that was causing the event to get out of sync has been addressed.
- Title descriptions have been adjusted to match the new number of completions needed to earn them in the Hard Tack event. We have also addressed a typo.

- All Crafted food should now correctly display the correct duration.
- Birds collected while Birding are not intended to be trade-able. They should auto-consume and add to your Collections panel. In the rare cases where these birds do appear in inventory, they will now be bound to character, and can simply be used from inventory.
