I bolded some of the stuff i thought was ok ish ..

*** UI ***

Fixed a bug that could leave pets in the extended target window when their owners got charmed.
Removed heroic resists from the stats pane.
*** Spells ***

Fixed a bug that caused Leech touch and similar spells to nuke the caster for large amounts of damage.
Fixed a bug with free targeted spells that caused them to fail if you had anything targeted.
*** Misc ***

Fixed a bug that caused NPCs to continue to attack mercenaries that were invulnerable.

From Design:
*** Items ***

- Moved some zonewide drops from Pellucid Grotto to Foundation where they were intended to be.
- New items may be discovered in Foundation, Underquarry, and Arthicrex.

*** Tradeskills ***

- Appropriate NPCs in the Underfoot will now drop the rare tradeskill components. Not all golems are properly set yet. This will be fixed in a future patch.

I hope that includes Endless Goods, I would have thought it was obvious, but you just can never tell with SoE!

Edit: Well I just tested it and it is not working with Endless Goods, I hope it is just an oversight

Last edit! Well it is incoming: From Ngreth on SOE forums

it is based on the items not the spells. Whomever made this fix only checked the items from the first spells. I have a bug in my box for the other set, but I did not get to it before design lock, so it will still be poof on death until the next patch.

hmmm, nothing about our pet ae death touch spell/ability...guess it was an oversight

Not having cauldron items poof is nice! I always keep extra food/drink in shared bank to restock after I die, now I won't have too.

[nylrem]

well so far our stuff still poofs on death on test, so don't get your hopes up too high yet

I dont think you have had a patch since last live patch, so you just have to hang on in there, it is working on live

Edit: Dont forget the Endless goods items not poofing did not make it in tome for the last test patch
