Of note:

Culling Vortexes are now available in Void D, previously locked behind Void F. This means you can take a tier5 essence, combine in a culling vortex to make the essence a tier4 version. And likewise, you can bust a tier4 essence down to a tier3 version. The slot of the essences remain unchanged in this process. This process is available for both group essences and raid essences.
--This eliminates all need to hunt in tier3 or tier4 zones to get a full suit of tier5 group gear. However, the Void requirements to actually make tier5 gear have remain unchanged, requiring Void E access--

Back in SoF, you can now purchase an Innert Core Gearing Kit from the Automated Vending Unit in Dragonscale Hills. You can take any crystallos essence and with this kit bust it down to a steam core. This process is available for both group essences/cores and raid essences/cores.
--This eliminates all need to hunt in tier3 zones for steam cores. You can buy archaic armor in the bazaar and go straight to crystallos to get your SoF armor sets completed.--

**I do not have explicit details/procedures on this process, only that the process is now an option**

The fact that they screwed up Fundindle (or whatever his name is, Barg trigger) to not spawn if Breakneck was down made me laugh...that is really the first question I asked when I read the patch notes. At least they got that fixed fast enough...

breakneck is pretty much the same mechanic that was used on ZiT..and they never seemed to get it right/interact with the rest of the zone in MMM. I don't mind game devs re-using mechanics once in a while..but at least make sure they work the 2nd time around. That, and they shouldn't pick some of the more/most annoying mechanics to repeat. Breaknek is a joke of an event..but wow did it take a while execute. Just like meldrath..which I'm sure looked great on paper..but in game, just dragged on(and on and on).
