Heroes
- Reworked the Ctrl + Number manual casting of Hero Skills to work correctly
- Hero attack spells with no target now fire at the mouse position instead of doing nothing.
- A monster under the mouse becomes the hero’s spell target and stays locked for later Ctrl + Number casts.
- In Defensive mode, the hero can now hit a monster you picked by hand, for 5 seconds.
- A target you cast at by hand doesn’t become the hero’s auto-attack target, so the hero won’t keep attacking it.
- Hero auto-potion slots now show potion icons at a consistent size. (this should be a long term solution)
Skills
- Fury has no cooldown at level 4 again (regression)
Monsters and pets
- Heal-over-time on monsters and pets now ticks in faster for big heals, the same way it works for players and heroes.
- Levelled monsters can now spawn naturally at level 7.
- Trick or Treat boxes are never levelled, so they can’t spawn with 10,000 HP.
Quests
- Fixed a bug whereby party members would receive too many of a quest item
- Key rooms potentially no longer stay blocked after someone disconnects inside one. (hopefully)
Crafting, refining and awakening
- Fixed a crafting bug relating to stacked items not always being taken correctly.
- After a failed craft, ingredients no longer show in your bag when they’re actually gone.
- You can’t start a second refine while an item is already at the refiner. Before, the first item was lost.
- Disassembling now checks you have bag space first, instead of destroying the item.
- Fixed an undiscovered bug which allowed Durability to overflow in huge numbers
- Awakening refuses invalid awakening types and item grades instead of erroring.
Item
- Hardened various item based systems with robust server side checks.
- Items flagged as no-trade can’t be listed on the Trust Merchant.
Client and visuals
- Light fades are now smooth, with no grain, blockiness or green/magenta speckle; brightness is unchanged.
- Correct alpha blending is now on for everyone. the 31 Oct patch had wrongfully switched it off in everyone’s settings file.
- A floor item you hover over in the dark stays dark; only its name label shows.
- New option EuroStyleDnitems=True in the [Graphics] section of the client’s settings file shows the old-style smaller floor item icons first. It’s off by default and uses lower quality sprites.
- Fixed the chat box getting stuck so Backspace stopped working after reopening chat with unsent text.
