General
- You can now craft multiple Gloomstones and Imbuements at once.

- The game will now default to Medium settings on first launch (this will not effect current users, only users starting the game for the first time).
Wayfinders & Weapons
- We have introduced a new system for soft targeting which will increase responsiveness to the direction the player is inputting. This should reduce cases where nearby but off-target enemies are selected over enemies which are on-target but further away.
- Art of War passive now stacks properly on Warmasters, regardless of the weapon type you are using.
- Abilities that consume all momentum give 1, 2, or 3 stacks of Art of War depending on ability level.
(Abilities that combo (like Gladiator Slice) will give 1 stack of Art of War per execution, totaling 3 stacks for a full combo.)
(Wheel of Pain is special in that it drains Momentum over time, but there are two points during the drain that will trigger additional Art of War procs. If Wheel of Pain is held for its full duration, it generates a total of 3 stacks.)
(For Bullet Storm and Volcano, they should now generate 1/2/3 stacks based on charges used.)
(For Dual Striker abilities, they now trigger 3 stacks of Art of War.)
- The healing effect from Bloodsong's ability Wheel of Pain now scales with both Weapon Power and Ability Power, in-line with other weapon ability effects.
- Fixed an issue that caused Grim Harvest's ability Bone Geyser to scale entirely with Ability Power. It now scales evenly with both Ability Power and Weapon Power, bringing it in-line with other weapon abilities.
- Hellswarm’s ability Volcano has been improved.. again!
- First off, we’ve swapped the budgets for Resilience and Weapon Power, so Hellswarm will now have much more Weapon Power than before.
(Now fires exactly 5 meteors per Locked and Loaded charge.)
(Meteor damage increased by 20%.)
(Meteor blast radius increased by 10%.)
(Meteor drop rate increased by 150%.)
(Meteor landing area reduced by ~50%. Meteors should now land in a more tightly-packed area.)
