Requirements matter before damage comparisons
The 0.19.1 hotfix describes an equipment interface problem when a character lacks the proficiencies needed for an Eldritch weapon. That establishes that proficiency compatibility can affect equipping it. It does not provide the full requirement list for every weapon. Check the current tooltip before assuming that a shared setup works for your class and origin.
The 0.20.4 hotfix also stops Eldritch items from being assigned to builds that cannot use them. Before that fix, Auto-Build could repeatedly search for an impossible item and freeze. This is a documented configuration problem, not proof that the item had disappeared from the game. A later successful import still does not verify all of a character's unlocks.
Read weapon changes chronologically
The 0.19.5 announcement introduces Iskral, Staff of Endless Winter. Version 0.20.6 later reduces its listed freeze chance, critical damage, base damage and attack-step count while increasing projectile duration. Those changes show why a launch description and a later build demonstration can differ. Neither should be silently treated as an immutable current tooltip.
The same group of notes changes several other named weapons. Solaris gains a second rune slot in 0.19.5, and Fulcio loses a rune slot while gaining bonuses against Burning and Frozen targets. Version 0.20.6 later makes Fulcio's Burning and Frozen damage bonuses global. These are separate weapon-specific facts, not a shared rule for all Eldritch gear.
Do not turn isolated bonuses into a ranking
Grulm's proc chance and proc damage are reduced in 0.19.5. Fulskar's Power Ability Damage also changes across the retained updates. The existence of a larger number on one item does not establish a better complete build. The sources lack the common test conditions needed for a current weapon ranking.
A meaningful comparison would need compatible character requirements, the same ritual context and the actual abilities and equipment selected. The collected announcements are balance records, not that experiment. Exact best-in-slot recommendations remain 待确认. This page does not present historical patch values as tested performance results.
Keep scroll acquisition separate from equipping
The 0.19.4 patch says each Eldritch Scroll gains a second boss source and links an updated list. Later updates add world-map scroll indicators and correct them for Orrathorium-dependent extended bosses. These changes concern obtaining scrolls. They do not remove the need to satisfy a weapon's equipment requirements.
The complete current boss-to-scroll mapping was not retained as verified content. The scroll-location guide explains the confirmed map indicators and the limits of the available table. It does not invent a route for every weapon. A confirmed item name and an unverified acquisition location must remain separate.
Inspect planner behavior on the installed version
Version 0.20.1 fixes missing Eldritch unlocks not appearing in Auto-Build warnings. Version 0.20.11 fixes the Eldritch gear list failing to update correctly after class, race or origin changes. Those UI corrections matter when evaluating an old screenshot of the planner. They do not prove that every newer issue has the same cause.
The 0.21 announcement adds new Eldritch items, including Nhalzûr, the Soul Eater and Koroth, Helm of Command. The new-item list alone is not a complete equipment or acquisition guide for them. Their detailed requirements and complete effect tables remain 待确认 within this source set. Review current tooltips before treating a newly named item as a direct substitute in an older build.
