Links to gear on Diablo III site are broken

[x99LedBloons 1]

I was taking a look at some build here on Icy-Veins and realized that all of the items that are non-recipes, appear to link to broken pages.

Example: Inarius's Understanding 

The link for Inarius's Understanding from Icy-Veins links here: "inariuss-understanding" when it should be fully qualified, "inariuss-understanding-P6_Necro_Set_3_Helm"

Here is a working link: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/item/inariuss-understanding-P6_Necro_Set_3_Helm

I believe that Blizzard changed their URL scheme when they released Patch 2.6.0 back in June. Is there a reason why the links don't work anymore or why they have not since then?

Added a working link.

It appears that Gems are also not working, as Bane of the Trapped should link here:

I don't see the problem? Both item links seem to work just fine?

This link does not work. It shows a 404 error page.

Interesting that the hover works and showing the item but clicking the link does not O_o

Yeah, the hover is an Icy-Veins database call to grab their data. It is cached on their website. An external call out to the Battle.net site will not work. I have put together a spreadsheet of all the weapons and armor with their correct links.

You can check it out here.

Thank you for your report @x99LedBloons. We'll look into it!

Thanks for the report! We indeed cache the tooltip DB. We used to use the tooltips directly from Battle.net but it would create problems when Battle.net was under maintenance.

I last updated the DB when patch 2.6 was released, so they must have changed something afterwards. I'll run an update now and this should fix everything.

This should all be fixed now. Blizzard changed a lot of stuff in the armory after 2.6 was released and I hadn't caught these changes (this was done after the patch, because nothing had really changed on patch day).
