RIFT 3.1 Hotfix #3

GENERAL
* An “I’m Stuck” button has been added to the in-game help menu from the start button tray. You can still use “/stuck”.
* Fixed the problem that made the mouse not work at all in experimental Oculus mode.

GUILDS
* Increased the max guild level to 30.
* Added new Sigil versions of each of the guild banners, except Banner of Clairvoyance.
– These Sigil buffs require all 3 ranks of their respective banners in order to unlock for purchase.
– The buffs are upgraded versions of the banners which increase their respective stats by a percentage instead of the current flat amounts.
– They also differ by applying the buff directly to raid members instead of requiring the raid to remain within range of the banners, and do not drop an object on the ground.
– These buffs have the same duration as the banners, will last through death and follow the same stacking rules as the banners.
– They require the new Combat Sigil reagent to cast.
* New perk: Renown: Increases notoriety gains by 3/6/9%. Please verify this works as expected.
* Increased the max rank of Regroup to 3.
* Increased the max rank of Rift Extraction to 4.
