Possible Ash Change ALERT - Be Informed.

Cordovan clarified things a little bit on his Cord of the Rings stream. My suspicions appear to be correct. Please see my update here:

So I discovered today that Ashes of Enchantment were renamed to Motes of Enchantment. Except, there are two types of Motes of Enchantment!

1) Motes of Enchantment that were converted from Ashes of Enchantment in your barter wallet or that you loot from Gorgoroth Lootboxes or get by using the Flames of Ancalamir on your Mordor/Northern Mirkwood gear go into their own category.

2) Motes of Enchantment that you get by ashing new quest gear, opening the NEW Lootboxes (Hero's Steel-Bound Lootbox), etc. are in their own category as well.


You can see in the screenshot below in my wallet how they are categorized. Top is old Ashes of Enchantment converted to Motes of Enchantment and bottom are the new Motes of Enchantment I looted from the lootbox + got from ashing new gear for update 23. I used these ashes to barter for the new Essence Box on the new Rare oddities Vendor.
