Really disappointed by the lack of sword changes for weaver. Especially since they talked about power budget in the balance philosophy. The power build is fully melee, has practically zero utility and ok-ish cc. But it's still left at ~36k dps while many other builds with more utility (and/or range) do more dps. The sword condi build is also mostly melee but is left to do less damage than scepter. It has some decent utility in focus, but so does the scepter build. So why is sword relegated to being the worst dps option? And why is lightning flash still left on a 40s cooldown? Is the 1.5 damage coefficient that problematic? Is the ability to teleport while channeling abilities really that strong in pve?

What I've experienced with the oakhearts is that you tend to automatically pick them up if you're in the air close to them, even if it's from the tiniest of jumps. I haven't tested specific essences to see if all of them work that way.Edit: After some minor testing it seems that you auto pick up if you enter pick up range while airborne.

If I'm not wrong, unlocking the skin of tradeable equipment make them account bound instead of soulbound right away. Might be what's happened in your case
