Bug Fixes
* Fix some bosses, such as the Church Invasion, Blood Tower Roof boss and New Game + boss, not having their cinematic properly play out and leaving the game in an odd state and/or not leaving proper rewards. If you haven't started a New Game + cycle, their rewards will appear in your inventory upon loading the game, otherwise you will need to defeat them again in your current cycle.

* Fix healing barrier not lasting its full duration when boosted with higher Spell Damage
* Fix some seeds of the Observatory generating with furniture too close to a door to open it
* Reduce the number of volumetrics present in several areas to improve Very High/Ultra performance, particularly on AMD cards - if you continue to see issues on your particular configuration in an area, please file a bug report so I can check it out
* Fix the ring upgrade screen displaying [ERROR] for certain Windows system language/locale settings
* Fix the Scythe occasionally doing the heavy attack when it shouldn't
* Fix odd visual FX when rolling using Burning Protection
* Fix the minimap being offset when playing in ultrawide configurations
* Fix changing outfits during Spirit Form not applying the proper material
* Fix Mannequins not counting as one of your 3 enchantments
* Fix Sothach & Baw returning to life after being defeated and returning to the room
* Fix enemies that heal potentially healing on the same frame as their death(making them invincible)
* Fix queueing up a healing item while the Phantom Threads are equipped causing repeated attacks
* Fix being able to pick up Tesla Coil Mace twice
* Fix Edgar leaving a trail of map NPC icons when following the player
* Fix the Sword (Left) for Nightingale's Creature not displaying stats
* Fix the Comforting Bear not having its intended (small) curse healing effect when not being cuddled
* Fix being able to peek into the secret room in the Church of Burdens
* Fix rings with random heal/damage every X seconds effects sometimes not working properly
