Breadth of the Beast Trinket
In Phase 3 of Season of Discovery, a quest called The Wild Gods introduced a new currency and vendor with powerful rewards. Among them was the Breadth of the Beast trinket, a highly sought-after item valued for its crit and hit chance bonuses. At launch, players were able to equip two copies simultaneously, making it an exceptionally powerful option for maximising combat effectiveness.
The Unique Hotfix
A hotfix applied on Sunday night reclassified the Breadth of the Beast as Unique, restricting characters to a single equipped copy. The change was necessary for game balance, but it was applied retroactively; players who had already equipped two copies found that one was silently deleted with no immediate refund.
📌 Players who purchased two copies before the hotfix were not automatically compensated. If you were affected, opening a support ticket was the recommended course of action at the time.
Community Response and Refund Reports
The deletion without compensation sparked frustration across the player community. Reddit user smallertools reported losing a trinket with no refund offered. Another commenter, thatswhatiwanttodo, shared a more encouraging experience: a Game Master responded to their support ticket stating that the refund issue had been escalated to the development team for investigation, with a request to compensate all affected players.
⚠️ No official announcement confirmed universal compensation. Players were advised to monitor the official forums and patch notes for any follow-up from Blizzard.
✏️ Even with a single copy equipped, the Breadth of the Beast remained one of the strongest Phase 3 trinkets available — its crit and hit contribution held real value in Sunken Temple progression.
