• Acererak's Heroic Encounter in Omu should no longer tank framerates quite as much.
  • The number of enemies in this HE has been reduced.

Combat and Powers

General

• Animation-cancelling Artifact casts should no longer trigger bonuses from effects such as Artificer's Influence, Shepherd's Devotion, and Cavalry's Warning.
  • This also affects the Survivor's Wraps arm slot gear.
• Pilgrim weapons no longer continually trigger combat.

Companions

• Alpha Compy now properly grants its damage increase in the Merchant Prince's Folly.

Enemies and Allies

• Raptors in Chult now strike at the endpoint of their Ambush attack, rather than automatically hitting their target.
• Raptors in Chult now also have a separate version of their Ambush attack that does automatically hit their target, but does not knock them down.

Cradle of the Death God

• A logout delay has been enabled in Cradle of the Death God.  If a player logs out while in the Cradle of the Death God, their character will remain present for a short time.
  • During that time it will be impossible to log back in and powers may continue to affect the character.
• The Atropal will now become immune to damage and untargetable upon reaching certain health thresholds.  Acererak was not pleased with adventurers skipping phases.
• The achievement for killing the Atropal is once again properly given to players with kill credit.

Items and Economy

General

• Chult campaign currencies no longer "incorrectly" have "quotation" "marks" around their "tooltips."
• Masterwork Neck set items now have a proper set name.
• Overflow XP rewards now have a lower chance to drop Rough Astral Diamonds, due to the increased rate of Overflow XP rewards popping.
• Primal Equipment can no longer get into a state where it cannot be Restored.
• Seals now state where they can be traded in.
• Treasure maps now consistently open a window without additionally using the lava-style borders at the top and bottom of the screen.
• Various item-based buffs have been updated to remove variance. They'll give the stats they state on their tooltip, rather than slightly differing values.
• Various lootable items found in the world should now generate per-character.
  • Example: If Character A takes two of three items out of a chest, and Character B opens it, Character B should have their own set of loot from that chest.
  • If Character A loots after that, the one remaining item should be in their loot dialog.

User Interface

General

• Inspect Companion now properly shows the companion's actual stats.

Home Page

• The content on the Home Page has been cleaned up.  The Kenku Archer has started advertising their skills elsewhere.
• The Reward Claims Agent can now be accessed from the Home Page ("L" key by default).  The character must have completed the tutorial to access this option.

HUD

• Item Received notifications should now properly show the count of items gained.
• Name plates no longer incorrectly show an enemy's name after taking damage if a player set them not to do so.
• The Experience bar tooltip now shows relative XP values within your level.  For example, if a character has just hit level 42, the tooltip should have close to 0 XP, along with the remaining XP to the next level.
• The Report Player option is once again properly in the context menu that appears when interacting with a character in-world.

Inventory

• When refining and upgrading an item from a stack, if the resulting item can stack with other items in the inventory, it will.

Refinement
