Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a bug that caused interrupted attack skills to occasionally deal damage.

  • Fixed a bug with skills that convert damage from one type to another, such as Stone Striker and Greater Conflagration. The converted damage was working incorrectly with armor bonuses and penalties.

  • Fixed a bug that allowed characters to occasionally Shadow Step while carrying a flag.
