1. Fear

I was playing alone, gathering up groups in Vergrim's Vexation Level 4. I would get Fear'ed by the Fire Banshees quite often, and I noticed that after a while, the green Fear wasn't coming up on my character when i was running around uncontrollably. I'm not sure if this is a graphic problem on my end, or a bug, but sometimes it works and sometimes it doesnt.

2. Relic Chest Rewards

Has this been changed? I don't remember reading it in any patch notes. Whenever I click a relic chest and the monster with the gun comes out, (with the 4 pods), and I kill him, there is only 1 relic that comes out. This used to be 2. Was this changed on purpose or is this a bug? I noticed this starting in Algor's Terror Dome, working my way up through the dungeons, having the same thing in each dungeon.

1. No idea

2. Sometimes I get 1 and sometimes 2. I've gotten 1 more often lately. This might have changed with the removal of the 'double-click-on-chests' exploit, but I'm not sure.

I've notived the same thing in Ratsputin's dungeon wiht banshees- sometimes the icon will appear when you are feared, sometimes not. I'm guessing it's a bug.

The relic chest drop rate was changed last patch. With or without a gaurdian, you will most likely see one relic drop unless you increase the difficulty level.
