Q:

From the HoT release notes:

“To sync armor crafting with weapon crafting, and to help maintain the value of leather, masterwork, rare, and exotic inscriptions will now be crafted with patches made from leather and cloth. To account for the added leather cost, the amount of cloth required to make an insignia is reduced.”

While it mentions that masterwork, rare, and exotic inscriptions will require leather, it does not mention ascended crafting. However, at least in armorsmithing, elonian cords are now required along with the bolts of damask to make ascended insignias. The release notes also mention that the cloth cost for these insignias will be reduced, which is not the case for the ascended insignias. It now costs three damask and three cords to make an insignia, so the cloth cost has not been reduced at all. Is this oversight in the patch notes, or is the in-game amount incorrect?

On a different note – loving the expansion so far! Great work.
