259: Early Access 0.12.96 - August 3, 2022 11:10 PM EST
• Made some critical improvements. ☺
• Improved party net code. It is leaner and meaner, now.
• Fixed Tornado's (DRU) indicated ice damage on its tooltip.
• Fixed a bug related to how Gravity Flux sometimes removes Stasis Field (ENC) from the wrong target when you slay a mob.
• The trade window's gold input now only accepts integers. It will also validate the gold value as you type it in case it exceeds your current gold (or other limits). Overall the gold input works much better and provides better feedback.
• Made some adjustments to prevent the grayed out item bug when looting.
• Fixed Wyvern's full set bonus for real this time.

254: Early Access 0.12.91 - August 2, 2022 4:00 PM EST
• Players will now receive a message on the title screen when Steam detects a new client version.
• Added code to help protect two items from overlapping in one slot. This still needs more testing. It is pretty rare and hard to duplicate.
• Improved handling when you fail to loot an item. The client will now give you additional chances to loot an item if there is some kind of problem connecting to the server.
• Improved the styling, animation, and appearance of the alert popups. It also supports more than one message at once, now. It has been limited to three messages at once to avoid cluttering the UI.
• Flash Strike (ROG) now indicates its DoT duration.
• Adjusted the message when leaving a party/guild to say leave instead of disbanded which could be confusing.
• Fixed a bug where an extra minor potion appeared at the beginning of the apothecary in some cases.
• Improved town chat presence detection. There was a bug with players timing out in some cases.
• Thunder in town now uses ambient volume settings instead of sound.
• Updated the Portuguese and Japanese localization text.
• Setting a new party leader is no longer possible during combat. I probably fixed a leader promotion bug, too.
• Added target's target icon to the mob target bar.
• Looted items now make a sound effect based on the type of item it is.
• Made the color for fire slightly more orange to create more contrast with blood damage type.
• Resistance indicators are now color coded on the target bar.
• There is a new toggle option to delay skill tooltips in combat.
• Disabled a loading screen tip that isn't relevant anymore.
• Wyvern full set bonus now properly gives a bonus to poison spell damage instead of melee poison damage.

253: Early Access 0.12.90 - July 31, 2022 12:35 PM EST
• Fixed all of the annoying party bugs related to invite, disband, leader election.
• Blessed Hammer (CRU) no longer cancels when your target dies.
• Litany of Life (BRD) is now considered a HoT rather than a buff to health regen. This means that they will now show up in healing reports.
• Litany of Life and Melody of Mana (BRD) can now benefit from arcane magic bonuses, alteration, and charisma. The new values are reflected in the skill tooltips as well.
• Your leader's ability to invite is no longer constrained by players that joined your party.
• Improved /who lfg level filtering. There were some bugs with it.
• Strength now has a more noticeable impact on melee damage.
• Dexterity now has a more powerful impact on critical hit rates.
• Agility now has a bigger impact on armor which helps with damage reduction.
• Wisdom, intelligence, and charisma now have a more noticeable impact on spell damage based on school magic type (evocation, alteration, and conjuration).
• Mob health has been increased slightly to account for these improvements to hero base attributes.
• Corrected some in-game text about piercing vs penetrating skills.

252: Early Access 0.12.89 - July 30, 2022 12:25 PM EST
• Minor fixes to addition of Portuguese language support. Apparently Portuguese-Brazilian and Portuguese are close enough that both can be enabled (controversial!?). 🤔
