  • Bounty Hunter’s career ability animation now scales properly with speed buffs.

  • Saltzpyre should no longer get stuck in aiming (third person) after shooting with the crossbow.

  • Fixed an issue where Sienna would remain fully slowed despite having vented to below the threshold.

  • Fixed an issue where the Trollhammer Torpedo showing the ammunition when out of ammo.

GENERAL

  • Fixed an issue where breakable planks/blockades would still be impassable for players who hotjoin a map, despite the party having already broke them, rendering the now joined player stuck further back in a level.

UI/UX

  • Fixed some Shade items which were presented incorrectly in Lohner’s Emporium of Wonders.
