General
By popular demand we have added a new "Level up" sound effect.
Player Building tooltip displays correct predecessor information now.
Fixed some randomness in when you would see the tutorial popup flags.
Trading with another player will no longer cause traded items to appear in the incorrect inventory tab.
Removed the commandline to setting hotkeys since it was only intended to debug hotkeys before the GUI was there
The "usable items only" checkbox with traders should now work as intended.
The facemarking 'Freckles' should now work for new characters.
Minor issue with tradeposts and setting up items for auction has been resolved.
Corrected several animations for mobs as well as NPCs during cut scenes.
Increased the xp gained from group normal mobs and group bosses.
Players will now be able to experience the destiny event in the Field of Chiefs.
New voice over for some of the events in the Capture The Skull minigame.
More client and server crashes resolved.

Combat
Evadebonuses are now applied when you are being attacked from behind.
Players with Shield of the Risen will not be affected by secondary effects from combos.

Chat
If you drag a chat window with only one tab in it over the tab-bar of another chat window it will now be added as a tab to that window (inserted before the tab that the mouse is over in the "target" window).
When pressing enter the input focus will by default go to the last active chat tab rather than the selected "default tab". The previous behaviour can be achieved by checking the "Default Window" menu entry for one of the tabs.
Tweaked the areas you click to resize the chat window to make them easier to use.

GUI
Guild Feats: It should now show a scrollbar.
Buff icons no longer get stuck on after teleporting or talking to an npc.
Resolved a GUI related crash when clicking on the bank (broker).
Fixed an issue causing buffs placed outside the currently visible area of shortcut bars to still flash when ending cooldown.
Whisper replies now always go to the chat tab you sent the original message from, in addition to the tab that is subscribed to the "Tell" channel.
Added some missing class icons used by the team/raid GUI.
Raid leaders now have an orange name in the raid GUI.
Removed an unused hotkey (Show chat config).

Items
The weapons should now always appear sheathed in the character selection screen.
Potions: Fixed an issue with the stamina potion 'Old Redrouse', it will now get consumed when used.
The 'Nemedian War Flail' has been renamed to 'Nemedian Mace'.

Tradeskills
Gemmed items should now work (giving bonuses) and viewing them should no longer crash the client.
Becoming a Woodcutter should no longer erroneously tell you that you've learned the 'Evading Roll' combo.
Harvesting: Script now keeps track of the persons that are using a resource node. This prevents the user from trying to use it twice and thus not harvesting anything at all.

NPC
Monsters 4 levels or higher will now correctly have increased evade and immunity chance.
Resource gathering npcs will now display the '?' over their heads when you have the goal and items to return to them.
Princess Akivasha now attacks back when attacked in Sanctum of the Burning Souls.
The encounters in the Armsman's Arena should be less chaotic.
Demonic Pict will no longer try to cast spells at players without being able to do so.
The Quest NPC's for the Frost Swamp, Imerian Ravine and Oasis of Zaara have been shuffled around in the Resource and Building playfields to make it easier for players to spot them amongst all the other tradeskill NPC's

У некромантов пока ничего не поменялось.

Каждый тик их дот поглощаются абсорбом, а слабенькие удары петов защитой. При этом все доты еще нужно кастить несколько секунд, т.е. дамак из over time превращается в over-over-time. Петы попадают под АОЕ ньюк и мрут, как мухи.

На 55-ом ДПС по отбафанному игроку настолько слаб, что его почти восстанавливает начурал реген.
