Patch Notes: Version: NW.120.20200106a.20

By Julia (nitocris83) | Wed 29 Jan 2020 08:45:55 PM PST

Known Issues
The Barlgura Heroic Encounter in Avernus once again incorrectly prevents the Daily Random Trial reward from granting bonus Seals; in addition, the Barlgura Heroic Encounter itself will only grant Seals once per day. This will be addressed in a future build.
